https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1135396 There are two ways how to tell qemu to use huge pages. The first one is suitable for domains with NUMA nodes: the path to hugetlbfs mount is appended to NUMA node definition on the command line. The second one is suitable for UMA domains: here there's this global '-mem-path' argument that accepts path to the hugetlbfs mount point. However, the latter case was not used for all the cases that it should be. For instance: <memoryBacking> <hugepages> <page size='2048' unit='KiB' nodeset='0'/> </hugepages> </memoryBacking> didn't trigger the '-mem-path' so the huge pages - despite being configured - were not used at all.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
