Hi everyone,
I am testing out the Ninja DAP platform with Intel Xeon Phi 7210 64-core MIC processor. After configuring CentOS 7.3, I ran "lscpu" command. Results of the command show that 10 physical cores (40 HT cores) are offline! My processor only shows up as 54-core CPU instead of a 64-core CPU.
Did I receive a bad Phi chip? Or is there anything I need to modify in the SuperMicro K1SPE motherboard BIOS? My current BIOS settings are quadrant mode, flat memory, all ACPI power statues enabled (P, S, T).
Thank you!

Hi Keyur,
This smells like a kernel / x2APIC (read BIOS) problem akin to one I am facing with FreeBSD. You mentioned the K1SPE, but to confirm this is the Supermicro tower?
Under Linux, what output do you get for the following commands:
[ws@bob ~]$ sudo dmidecode --type bios # dmidecode 3.0 Scanning /dev/mem for entry point. SMBIOS 3.0 present. Handle 0x0000, DMI type 0, 24 bytes BIOS Information Vendor: American Megatrends Inc.

I have some issues with mics in my system. I tried micctrl --reboot and here is the output I get:
mic0: shutting down
mic1: shutting down
mic2: shutting down
mic3: shutting down
mic0: ready
mic1: ready
mic2: ready
mic3: ready
mic0: booting /lib/firmware/mic/uos.img
mic1: booting /lib/firmware/mic/uos.img
mic2: booting /lib/firmware/mic/uos.img
mic3: booting /lib/firmware/mic/uos.img
mic0: ready
mic1: ready
mic2: ready
mic3: ready
As you can see none of the mics are online. This is preventing me from sshing to one of the mics. Any possible solutions as to how to bring them online?
