The current THP segment load approach works only when THP is enabled with always in the kernel. If THP is enabled with madvise in the kernel, to enable THP segment load in an application, madvise should be called with MADV_HUGEPAGE on all THP eligible PT_LOAD segments: 1. Define DL_MAP_DEFAULT_THP_PAGESIZE in hugepages.h and default it to 0. If DL_MAP_DEFAULT_THP_PAGESIZE is defined, assume kernel THP madvise mode. If kernel THP mode is always or never, there is an extra madvise call which has no impact. DL_MAP_DEFAULT_THP_PAGESIZE is defined for x86-64 and 64-bit loongarch. 2. Update _dl_map_segment_align to support madvise THP mode. This fixes BZ #34079. 3. Call _dl_executable_postprocess in rtld_setup_main_map for dynamic executables and in LIBC_START_MAIN for static executables, which calls madvise with MADV_HUGEPAGE on all THP eligible PT_LOAD segments in executable. This fixes BZ #34080 for both dynamic and static executables. 4. Call _dl_postprocess_loadcmd_extra in _dl_postprocess_loadcmd, which calls madvise with MADV_HUGEPAGE on all THP eligible PT_LOAD segments when loading an object after they have been mapped in. This fixes BZ #34080 for shared objects. 5. Set the maximum page alignment on THP tests to THP page size as the default maximum page alignment may be smaller than THP page size. 6. Add tests to verify that large executable PT_LOAD segments in executables are mapped at addresses aligned to THP page size when the kernel is configured to use THP in "always" mode or "madvise" mode by inspecting /proc/self/maps to check that the mapping address is aligned to THP page size reported by the kernel. Also verify that madvise is called with MADV_HUGEPAGE when the glibc tunable glibc.elf.thp=1 is used and madvise isn't called with MADV_HUGEPAGE when the glibc tunable glibc.elf.thp=0 is used. Skip these tests if THP page size cannot be determined or if THP is not enabled in "always" mode nor "madvise" mode. Quote WANG Rui <wangrui@loongson.cn>: From benchmarking a clang build of the Linux kernel on x86_64 with your patch in THP madvise mode, I observed that iTLB misses were reduced, similar to what we see in THP always mode. NB: Some THP tests fail on arm due to limitations of arm32 kABI: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34096 Signed-off-by: H.J.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library. See the file "version.h" for what release version you have. The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems, and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system. In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications. In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers. The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu and x86_64-gnu. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later. Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be installed for the pthread library to work correctly. The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arc*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2 hppa-*-linux-gnu i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 loongarch64-*-linux-gnu Hardware floating point, LE only. m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu or1k-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390x-*-linux-gnu riscv32-*-linux-gnu riscv64-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component, following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has already been corrected. Please see https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Bugzilla%20Procedures for bug reporting information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports. This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
