AM5728: How to setup the DMM for max memory available to Linux

$

Part Number:AM5728

We have created a board (we do that sometimes)  We're using both EMIFs and each has 2GBytes DDR3LP attached to it for a total of 4GBytes on the board. 

1.  Is it possible to let Linux use all of it?

2.  Assuming not, how much can I feed Linux?

3.  What do I need to do in Linux configuration to accomplish this maximum memory usage?

4. How do I setup the DMM?  There is no 4GByte size in the LISA configuration registers.  I see that I could (technically) setup the 4GByte area using two sections (LISA registers).  What happens to device registers?  Does the processor/memory manager prioritize register addresses over memory addresses?  I guess I could limit the low end 2Gytes to 1 GByte or add a third LISA layout to bring back the 0x50000000 to 0x7fffffff area. At this point, I'm not worried about interleaving - I can handle that.  Please be specific and show the LISA register values I need.

Thanks in advance
