Update on In-Field-Scan adventures: Following my message, Intel has now published In-Field-Scan "scan tests" firmware images for Emerald Rapids (Xeon 5th gen), and updated the Linux kernel documentation accordingly.
Still missing are the images for already released CPU families Sierra Forrest and Granite Rapids (Xeon 6th gen). 4th gen Xeon (Sapphire Rapids) won't have a public release of the scan tests firmware images.

They can still do the Array Built-In Self Tests (BIST) which require no firmware at all to test L1/L2 caches, register files, and (SRAM?) data arrays.

#Nvidia #GraceSuperchip loses to #Intel #SapphireRapids in #HPC performance #benchmarks, promises greater efficiency
Barcelona #Supercomputing and #SUNY published benchmarks showing Grace Superchip, couldn't quite match TWO 48-core Sapphire Rapids #CPU. Despite not having earth-shattering performance, Grace promises to be competitive datacenter and HPC processor thanks to its efficiency. Built on Arm architecture. A single Grace CPU comes with 72c and 480GB of LPDDR5X RAM
