Is it possible to configure Intel i7 12th gen processor as PCIe Endpoint

[sujan19]

Hi, 

We wanted to know that if it is possible to configure Intel i7 12th gen processor installed on a PCE-5133 Single board Computer as an PCIe Endpoint ?

Can this be achieved while running Ubuntu & by writing a custom driver ?

Thanks & Regards,
Sujan

Hi Ramyer M, 

we are also facing the same issue and require your support 

card : https://www.advantech.com/en/products/1-2jkp2l/pce-5133/mod_9dd4a86e-6bff-42a8-bf2f-4b8f1ccc2189

processor : 96MPI7A-2.1-25M17- CORE I7 2.1G 25M 12C 1700P I7-12700  ( https://www.advantech.com/en/products/7e17429b-a827-4726-bb7b-97613687e707/96mpi7a-21-25m17/mod_ce067573-21ff-437d-9b78-50eb267ea997)

can you please provide the method to enable this card as end point .

Scenario: We have two Advantech PCE-5133 cards. One of these cards is already configured as the root point (which is the default configuration). The other identical card will serve as the end point for memory mapping.

Hello sujan19, 

Thank you for patiently waiting. Upon coordinating with our team, we want to let you know that questions of this nature are best addressed by our FPGA specialists. As such, I am moving this thread to our FPGA forum. You may also find it beneficial to reach out to your motherboard's OEM as well for further assistance.

Hello Ramyer, 

We are using INTEL I7 12TH GEN PROCESSOR , which is completely different from your FPGA Line-up, So I don't understand how moving this thread to an FPGA forum will help us in any way ? 

I look forward to your response. 

Regards,
Sujan

Was this ever solved? I would like to understand the same about Intel processors

No its not possible to configure Intel processors as endpoint, as it would require modification from BIOS level as well, not just kernel.
