Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I wasn't able to reproduce the issue
using the test at the end. I get -

    $ sudo ./hugepage

    Poisoning page...once
    [  121.295771] Injecting memory failure for pfn 0x8300000 at process virtual address 0x400000000000
    [  121.386450] Memory failure: 0x8300000: recovery action for huge page: Recovered

    Poisoning page...once again
    madvise: Bad address

What am I missing?

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])

	void *hugepage;
	int ret;

	hugepage_sz = 1024 * 1024 * 1024; /* 1GB */
	hugepage = mmap(NULL, hugepage_sz, prot, flags, -1, 0);
	if (hugepage == MAP_FAILED) {

	memset(hugepage, 'b', hugepage_sz);
