We have implemented hugepage support for guests in following manner In our implementation we added a parameter hugepage_num which is specified in the config file of the DomU. It is the number of hugepages that the guest is guaranteed to receive whenever the kernel asks for hugepage by using its boot time parameter or reserving after booting (eg. Using echo XX > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages).

hi, I tried to make huge page request in Fedora x86_64 PV guest using xen 4.1 unstable and it crashed(crash info given below) I had enabled superpages in config file I had also set hugepages parameter at boot time for the PV Dom U By excuting # cat /proc/mem_info | grep Huge gave me that there are 10 free huge pages available , still the domain crashed.
