Forum Discussion
I am using the Intel FPGA DevCloud. So I'm using whatever is in the FPGA queue (batch@v-qsvr-fpga, nodes s001-n[137-139] and s001-n189). When given access I was instructed to provide beta feedback to Intel about their resource via the forums. The posts you link suggest that Intel has their own DevCloud configured in a way that prevent it from compiling OpenCL kernels.
This is the same feedback you gave in https://forums.intel.com/s/question/0D50P00004UAnXVSA1/how-to-use-paca10-with-intel-fpga-sdk-for-opencl-192, which is fine if a user has configured their own box with the wrong software versions, but again, this is Intel's machine. I did not configure it, I did not buy the parts, I do not have sudo. I am trying to escalate so that the admins in charge of it can fix the issue.
I am unclear on the distinction between those two devices, but here is the output of aoc -list-boards and aocl diagnose if that helps you determine which are in the Intel FPGA DevCloud nodes.
