We currently do not document MAP_HUGETLB, which is closely related and
not really simple to describe. The manual page and kernel documentation
do not cover it in detail, either. The page size selection in
particular is missing, and I would have to research how an application
can discover supported hugepage sizes.
In short, this is not exactly a trivial request, and I would kindly ask
you to reconsider.
Thanks,
Florian
