I don't know about book3s64, I only have 8xx.

Here is my test app:


#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

int main()
{
	char *p;
	char buf[16384];
	char filename[32];
	int fd, r;
	
	sprintf(filename, "/proc/%d/maps", getpid());

	fd = open(filename, O_RDONLY);
	r = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
	close(fd);
	buf[r] = 0;
	fputs(buf, stderr);
	fputc('\n', stderr);
	
	p = malloc(1024*1024);
	fprintf(stderr, "\nAllocated 1Mbytes at %p\n\n", p);

	p = malloc(1024*1024);
	fprintf(stderr, "\nAllocated 1Mbytes at %p\n\n", p);

	p = malloc(1024*1024);
	fprintf(stderr, "\nAllocated 1Mbytes at %p\n\n", p);

	fd = open(filename, O_RDONLY);
	r = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
	close(fd);
	buf[r] = 0;
	fputs(buf, stderr);
	fputc('\n', stderr);

	exit(0);
}

It is linked with -lhugetlbfs (version 2.20)
My 8xx board is configured with 64 huge pages, default size 512k:

Without the patch, my test app gives the following results: as you can 
see, second and third malloc returns address which is not in a hugepage. 
strace shows that libhugetlbfs fallsback on regular mmap because 
hugepage has not been allocated at the requested address.

With the patch applied, it works properly, each malloc get an address 
within the hugepage space.
