Why are you limiting Memory API to 62-bit now?
The next patch makes a difference between artificial memory regions (containers and aliases) which can have arbitrary placement and width, and the final view of the address space which cannot have a full 64-bit size. 63 bits probably would work, but I preferred to be safe since 62 is the largest used by other targets. It should be fixable, but if it is not a problem I wouldn't worry much about it. Paolo
