Usually ARM platforms only have a fixed amount of RAM installed and no (real) dynamic way of determining the amount during startup. In case of the mentioned board and Qemu you can increase the amount of RAM “seen” by l4re by overriding the RAM_SIZE_MB variable. Then you can start Qemu with ‘-m SIZE’ to have more RAM available.
