This is the Linux Xen port. Enabling this will allow the
kernel to boot in a paravirtualized environment under the
Xen hypervisor.

Support running as a Xen PV guest.
config XEN_512GB
bool "Limit Xen pv-domain memory to 512GB"
depends on XEN_PV
default y
help
Limit paravirtualized user domains to 512GB of RAM.
The Xen tools and crash dump analysis tools might not support
pv-domains with more than 512 GB of RAM. This option controls the
default setting of the kernel to use only up to 512 GB or more.
It is always possible to change the default via specifying the
boot parameter "xen_512gb_limit".

Annotation
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/x86.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
