Description

**What is the current behavior?**
I tried to run rocket chip on both ZC706 and Zedboard, but it seems that the rocket chip only has 245MB memory on both fpga boards (I ran riscv-linux on rocket chip, and the riscv-linux says there is 245MB memory).

**What is the expected behavior?**
How to change rocket chip memory according to the maximum available memory on FPGA board? Thanks!

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing riscv-linux on the ZC706 and Zedboard, then trace how Rocket Chip configures FPGA memory; done means the reported memory matches the board's intended available capacity.
