What influence a "MultiNode" (for whatever definition of node you have)
system has on the memory map?

I read it as 40 bits, not 39.

>From the ARM ARM:

"If {I}PS is programmed to a value larger than the implemented physical
address size, then the PE behaves as if programmed with the implemented
physical address size, but software must not rely on this behavior.
That is, the output address size is never larger than the implemented
physical address size."

So this is a NAK. If you want to address this problem, do it properly
(hint: look@how we deal with VTCR_EL2).

Thanks,
