The patch titled Subject: hugetlbfs: add O_TMPFILE support has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was hugetlbfs-add-o_tmpfile-support.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Piotr Sarna <p.sarna@xxxxxxx> Subject: hugetlbfs: add O_TMPFILE support O_TMPFILE is an option used to create an unnamed temporary regular file. Currently, libhugetlbfs and Seastar use a combination of mkstemp and unlink to accomplish similar functionality on hugetlbfs. Add O_TMPFILE support to hugetlbfs so that it can potentially be used by existing users (Seastar) and new users (Oracle DB). Support is added by simply using the d_tmpfile utility function to instantiate the dcache entry for a temporary file. Tested manually by successfully creating a temporary file by opening it with (O_TMPFILE|O_RDWR) on mounted hugetlbfs and successfully mapping 2M huge pages with it. Without the patch, trying to open a file with O_TMPFILE results in -ENOSUP.
