enforce strict 512 GB per socket limit on Witherspoon memory map
SW415901 exposed a problem with the current implementation of extended addressing for Witherspoon Coral systems. With fully configured memory present in the system (8x64GB=512GB per socket), GARDing a DIMM will currently result in: - group of 6 fullying occupying 0-512GB address space - group of 1 mapped at 8TB region (2nd extended addressing region) The single group mapping has RA bit 20 active, which is problematic for the NVIDIA device driver. p9_fbc_utils.H p9.trace.scan.initfile for HW423589 option 2, enable chip address extension for chip ID LSB RA bit 21 only. This creates only one 4TB extended addressing region per socket. indirectly, this limits DIMMs to map into the 512 GB region with RA bit 21=0 and should cause an IPL failure if more than 512 GB is plugged or the memory grouping algorithm attempts to spill beyond 512 GB on a given chip p9_mss_eff_grouping.C prohibit formation of group sizes 6 and 3 when HW423589 option2 WA is active Change-Id: I997c080a2821cf3c556a4f8b35d5e0fdb34da500 CQ: SW415901 Reviewed-on: http://ralgit01.raleigh.ibm.com/gerrit1/53406 Tested-by: Jenkins Server <pfd-jenkins+hostboot@us.ibm.com> Tested-by: HWSV CI <hwsv-ci+hostboot@us.ibm.com> Tested-by: PPE CI <ppe-ci+hostboot@us.ibm.com> Tested-by: Hostboot CI <hostboot-ci+hostboot@us.ibm.com> Tested-by: FSP CI Jenkins <fsp-CI-jenkins+hostboot@us.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Thi N.
