HUGETLBFS_UNLINKED_FD(3)				     Library Functions Manual					  HUGETLBFS_UNLINKED_FD(3)

NAME
       hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd, hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd_for_size - Obtain a file descriptor for a new unlinked file in hugetlbfs

SYNOPSIS
       #include <hugetlbfs.h>

       int hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd(void);
       int hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd_for_size(long page_size);

DESCRIPTION
       These functions return an open file descriptor for a unique, newly-created file in a hugetlbfs filesystem.  To avoid leaking hugepages, the
       file is unlinked automatically before the function returns.

       For hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd, the default huge page size is used (see gethugepagesize(3)).	For hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd_for_size, a  valid  huge
       page size must be specified (see gethugepagesizes(3)).

RETURN VALUE
       On success, a valid open file descriptor is returned.  On failure, -1 is returned and errno may be set appropriately.
