This section describes the initial programming environment including address maps for memory
and I/O, techniques and considerations for programming ASIC registers, and hardware options
configuration.

3.7.1 Memory

Space

At the highest level, the Intel Xeon processor address space is divided into 4 regions, as shown
in the following figure. Each region contains sub-regions as described in following sections.
Attributes can be independently assigned to regions and sub-regions using the Intel Server
Board SE7320SP2 or SE7525GP2 registers. The Intel E7320 and Intel E7525 chipsets each
supports 64GB of host-addressable memory space and 64KB+3 of host-addressable I/O space.
The SE7320SP2 and server board SE7525GP2s support up to 8GB of main memory for DDR-
266 or DDR-333 configurations.
