The Extended SMRAM register controls the configuration of Extended SMRAM space. The
Extended SMRAM (E_SMRAM) memory provides a write-back cacheable SMRAM memory
space that is above 1 MB.

Description
7
R/W/L
Enable High SMRAM (H_SMRAME): This bit controls the SMM memory space
0b
location (i.e., above 1 MB or below 1 MB). When G_SMRAME is 1 and H_SMRAME
is 1, the high SMRAM memory space is enabled. SMRAM accesses within the range
0FEDA0000h to 0FEDBFFFFh are remapped to DRAM addresses within the range
000A0000h to 000BFFFFh. Once D_LCK has been set, this bit becomes read only.
6
R/W/C
Invalid SMRAM Access (E_SMERR): This bit is set when the processor has
0b
accessed the defined memory ranges in Extended SMRAM (High Memory and T-
segment) while not in SMM space and with the D-OPEN bit = 0. It is software’s
responsibility to clear this bit. The software must write a 1 to this bit to clear it.
5
RO
SMRAM Cacheable (SM_CACHE): This bit is forced to 1 by the (G)MCH .
1b
4
RO
L1 Cache Enable for SMRAM (SM_L1): This bit is forced to 1 by the (G)MCH.
1b
3
RO
L2 Cache Enable for SMRAM (SM_L2): This bit is forced to 1 by the (G)MCH.
1b
2:1
R/W/L
TSEG Size (TSEG_SZ): This field selects the size of the TSEG memory block if
00b
enabled. Memory from the top of DRAM space is partitioned away so that it may
only be accessed by the processor interface and only then when the SMM bit is set
in the request packet. Non-SMM accesses to this memory region are sent to the
DMI when the TSEG memory block is enabled.
00 = 1-MB Tseg. (TOLUD – Graphics Stolen Memory Size – 1M) to (TOLUD –
Graphics Stolen Memory Size).
01 = 2-MB Tseg (TOLUD – Graphics Stolen Memory Size – 2M) to (TOLUD –
Graphics Stolen Memory Size).
10 = 8-MB Tseg (TOLUD – Graphics Stolen Memory Size – 8M) to (TOLUD –
Graphics Stolen Memory Size).
11 = Reserved.
Once D_LCK has been set, these bits become read only.
NOTE: References to Graphics Stolen Memory only apply to the
82915G/82915GV/82915GL/82910GL GMCH only.
0
R/W/L
TSEG Enable (T_EN): This bit Enables SMRAM memory for Extended SMRAM
0b
space only. When G_SMRAME =1 and TSEG_EN = 1, the TSEG is enabled to
appear in the appropriate physical address space. Note that once D_LCK is set, this
bit becomes read only.
