Seem that the current qemu limit is 42bits

target-i386/cpu.c

        if (env->features[FEAT_8000_0001_EDX] & CPUID_EXT2_LM) {
            /* 64 bit processor */
/* XXX: The physical address space is limited to 42 bits in exec.c. */
            *eax = 0x00003028; /* 48 bits virtual, 40 bits physical */

Current processors use 48 bits for addresses, so 2^48 -1 = 
2,814749767×10¹⁴
