I'm wondering ... does anyone know the limits on SMM memory size for this part?
SMM memory size was determined by the MCH part, not ICH. The boards we had with i82801dx used ASEG with 128 kiB of SMRAM. The only remaining user of i82801dx couples with e7505 that could handle 1 MiB of TSEG.
I'm looking for a mainboard emulation which can support the larger sizes, e.g. 8M.
Out of the box, not supported. But emulation/qemu-q35 can do that if you add "select SMM_TSEG" and some glue logic to write those TSEG related registers. You also need a recent QEMU, 2.10 or later.
