memcached: drop libhugetlbfs

2026-04-25T01:39:52+00:00

In Linux, memcached relies on transparent huge pages, and even if libhugetlbfs is enabled by the PACKAGECONFIG (and detected during do_configure, of course), it is simply not used: root@qemuriscv64:~# ldd $(which memcached) linux-vdso.so.1 (0x0000003fa4358000) libevent-2.1.so.7 => /lib/libevent-2.1.so.7 (0x0000003fa42b0000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x0000003fa4157000) /usr/lib/ld-linux-riscv64-lp64d.so.1 (0x0000003fa435a000) The main reason is the fact that the only call to a function coming from libhugetlbfs is here: https://github.com/memcached/memcached/blob/master/memcached.c#L4274 and getpagesizes() is only called if the #if block evaluates to true: int ret = -1; size_t sizes[32]; int avail = getpagesizes(sizes, 32); (...) /* check if transparent hugepages is compiled into the kernel */ /* RH based systems possibly uses a different path */ static const char *mm_thp_paths[] = { "/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled", "/sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled", NULL }; (...) This block relies on HAVE_MEMCNTL, which is a Solaris-specific feature. Therefore, the dependency link between memcached and libhugetlbfs doesn't exist in Linux. Drop libhugetlbfs from memcached's recipe. Signed-off-by: João Marcos Costa Signed-off-by: Khem Raj
