My comment regarding memory hotplug was primarily about (Linux) guest support. We should not optimize for 32bit processors (e.g., try placing the device memory region below 4g), but you can still consider the region and properly account it.

I am confused. So maybe you can send a patch.

32-bit systems do not have a reserved memory for hole64 and memory hotplug is not supported on those systems. Therefore, the maximum limit of the guest physical address coincides with the end of "above 4G memory space" region. Make sure that the end of "above 4G memory" is still addressible by the guest processor with its available address bits. For example, previously this was allowed: $ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu pentium -m size=10G Now it is no longer allowed: $ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu pentium -m size=10G qemu-system-x86_64: Address space limit 0xffffffff < 0x2bfffffff phys-bits too low (32) After calling CPUID with EAX=0x80000001, all AMD64 compliant processors have the longmode-capable-bit turned on in the extended feature flags (bit 29) in EDX. The absence of CPUID longmode can be used to differentiate between 32-bit and 64-bit processors and is the recommended approach. QEMU takes this approach elsewhere (for example, please see x86_cpu_realizefn()) and with this change, pc_max_used_gpa() also takes the same approach to detect 32-bit processors. Finally, a new compatibility flag is introduced to retain the old behavior for pc_max_used_gpa() for macines 8.1 and older.
