This information is available to the user through several means, one being a linear search of the entire address space. This is the method used by a component of the libhugetlb kernel test, and using the mechanism proposed in this patch, the time complexity of that test would be upgraded to constant time from linear time. This is especially relevant on 64-bit architechtures where a linear search of the address space could take an absurd amount of time. Using this mechanism, the modification to the test component would be portable across all architechtures.
