+- ``CSS_SGI_PLATFORM_VARIANT``: Selects the variant of a SGI/RD platform. A
+    particular SGI/RD platform may have multiple variants which may differ in
+    core count, cluster count or other peripherals. This build option is used
+    to select the appropriate platform variant for the build. The range of
