So I wrote "64-bit bus" here, but really meant: "address bus wider than 32 bits". In our case it's set to 40 bits, because that's how wide the other busses in the system are.
And we have memory from 2GB to 4GB, and from 34GB till 40GB, but not in-between (VExpress/Juno memory layout).

The exact parameter name from PG021 is: "Address Width (32-64) / c_addr_width".

What do you mean by that? Reading from where? Is there a way to access those parameters from a running system?
