FELIX assets

FELIX apparatus and availability

Testing and development hosts with a FELIX card are the following:

CERN NP04
- np04-srv-028 - RM5 based test platform & hosting 2 FELIX cards (DS Intel Cascade Lake Gold, SNC2)
- np04-srv-029 - RM5 based test platform (DS Intel Cascade Lake Gold)
- np04-srv-030 - RM5 based test platform (DS Intel Cascade Lake Silver)
CERN DT-DI DAQ-lab
- epdtdi104 - RM5 based development platform (DS Intel Cascade Lake Gold, SNC2, with PMEM and NVMe)
- epdtdi105 - RM5 based development platform (DS AMD EPYC with PCIe SSD and NVMe)
Bristol Lab
- ??? - (Host with WIB to FELIX connectivity)

DS stands for: Dual Socket with 2 CPUs

SNC stands for: Sub-NUMA Clustering. SNC2 means 2 cluster per socket.

Commit hashes, build timestamps can be found based on the name and in the firmware itself.

RM4 ATLAS Phase1 JBSC: https://cernbox.cern.ch/index.php/s/JyhtS7Odj5rvsFP
1. This firmware is/was the production firmware in ProtoDUNE-SP.
RM5 ATLAS Phase2: https://cernbox.cern.ch/index.php/s/7gY7HkSBDsz6lCV
1. As on ATLAS FELIX firmware Espace
2. Built-in JumboBlock/Superchunk support,
3. Contains AMD EPYC architecture specific fixes

(SLR stands for: "SuperLogic Region", which represent a "half" physical card a.k.a. logical unit.)
