 Hello!

> It is like other memdev properties, and there is an example in the
> patch adding a test:
> -object memory-backend-ram,size=3D1M,id=3Dmb1 -device =
ivshmem,memdev=3Dmb1

 But what will cause memory-backend-ram to use hugetlb instead of just a =
RAM?

 P.S. Sorry if the question is stupid, i'm not really familiar in =
hugetlb details. I only know that managing huge pages is done via =
hugetlbfs.

Kind regards,
