NOTES FOR FPGA:
- For hardware compiles on FPGA, you must download Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software and BSPs separately. See Intel® FPGA developmental flow webpage for more information.
- The Ubuntu Server 18.04 with Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernel is not supported, and there is no plan to support it for this release.
Developer Tools
- Supported minimum versions of distributed libraries that the compilers are built on: GCC - 7.5.0, BINUTILS- 2.30, GLIBC-2.28
- Eclipse* developers: Eclipse 4.20 and 4.21
- GPU Development:
- Latest Intel® GPU drivers from General Purpose GPU Drivers for Linux* Operating Systems.
- Intel® FPGA Development:
- Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software (see also Intel® oneAPI Toolkits Installation Guide for Linux* OS)
- FPGA devices or custom platforms for hardware compiles.
- GCC 7.5.0 or higher
- Development with Intel® oneAPI DPC++ Library:
- Use of the range-based API requires C++17 and the C++ standard libraries that are included with GCC 8.1 (or higher) or Clang 7 (or higher).
- A known issue is causing linker errors while using Link Time Optimization(LTO) on RHEL. To resolve the issue, make sure the following minimum versions of binutils are installed:
- RHEL 8: binutils 2.30-82.el8
- OpenMP development:
- libffi.so.6(default version on Ubuntu 18.04). Users with newer OS versions will need to specifically install libffi.so.6.
Summary of Intel Integrated Graphics (GPU) Development
- Supported Linux kernel: 4.11 or higher deployment is required
- Supported Linux OS: Ubuntu LTS 20.04.3, RHEL 8.x, SUSE 15.x
- Supported minimum versions of distributed libraries that the compilers are built on: GCC - 7.5.0, BINUTILS- 2.30, GLIBC-2.28
- Latest Intel® GPU drivers from General Purpose GPU Drivers for Linux* Operating Systems.
- You should be on the "video" group to access hardware. Use the command below to add:

Deprecation Notices
-
Starting from 2022.2 release, Windows driver support of integrated graphics processors included with 6th - 10th Gen Intel Core Processor and related Intel Atom®, Pentium®, and Celeron® processors is deprecated and has moved to maintenance mode. Only security and critical bug fixes will be updated. oneAPI tools using existing integrated graphics processor functionality in the aforementioned processors may continue to work, but will no longer be supported. Note that CPU functionality for these processors remains fully supported and unaffected. Please check the oneAPI forum and release notes for further details.
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 integration is deprecated starting in the 2022.0 release and will be removed in a future release.
- These operating systems are deprecated in the Intel oneAPI 2022.1 release and will be removed in a future release:
- Windows Server 2016*
- Ubuntu* 18.04 LTS
- CentOS* 7
- Fedora* 34
Known Issue
Intel® oneAPI Toolkits 2022.1.3 and earlier and Intel® Parallel Studio XE (any version) do not support Microsoft Visual Studio 2022. On systems with Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 installed, Intel® oneAPI and Intel® Parallel Studio XE installers may fail during installation, upgrade, modification, or uninstallation. Refer to this article for more information.
