SIGs/HC

Heterogeneous Computing Special Interest Group

Mission

To encourage the packaging and accessibility of heterogeneous computing projects in Fedora and EPEL. This includes machine learning, OpenCL, and scientific computing.

Members/Packagers/Reviewers

Please add your name above if you want to help.

Tasks

• Package and make HC related projects more accessible to users (such as OpenCL, AMD's ROCm HIP, Intel oneAPI, etc.)
• Document installation, packages, and general use cases
• Translation of wiki pages and documentation

AMD's ROCm (OpenCL/HIP)

Upstream only officially supports x86_64, but they are open to pcc64le and arm64 patches

Package status

Below is a list of ROCm packages with their status. If something isn't packaged in Fedora or EPEL, feel free to take it!

Name	Fedora Package	EPEL?	Upstream package name	Upstream URL	Notes
roct-thunk-interface	hsakmt	Yes	hsakmt-roct	https://github.com/radeonopencompute/roct-thunk-interface
rocr-runtime	rocm-runtime	Yes	hsa-rocr	https://github.com/radeonopencompute/rocr-runtime
rocminfo	rocminfo	Yes	rocminfo	https://github.com/radeonopencompute/rocminfo
rocm-compilersupport	rocm-compilersupport	Yes	comgr	https://github.com/radeonopencompute/rocm-compilersupport
rocm-device-libs	rocm-device-libs	Yes	rocm-device-libs	https://github.com/radeonopencompute/rocm-device-libs
opencl-icd-loader			rocm-ocl-icd	https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenCL-ICD-Loader	Fedora already has ocl-icd, but the khronos version is required for GL-CL interop support
rocm-opencl-runtime	In Review		rocm-opencl	https://github.com/radeonopencompute/rocm-opencl-runtime	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2090823
rocm_smi_lib	See notes		rocm-smi-lib	https://github.com/radeonopencompute/rocm_smi_lib	The deprecated rocm-smi should be replaced by this
hip			hip-[runtime,devel,docs,samples]	https://github.com/rocm-developer-tools/HIP	Upstream doesn't cleanly separate the cmake logic with hipamd, we should send upstream patches
hipamd			rocm-hip-runtime	https://github.com/rocm-developer-tools/hipamd	Upstream wants to merge this with OpenCL's sources, so it might be worth waiting to package, or adding as a subpackage for rocm-opencl. Testing version in mystro256's COPR: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/mystro256/rocm-hip/ using rocm-hip to avoid amd branding in Fedora package name.

Installation

Setup

For non-root usage, the user must be added to the vendor group:

   sudo usermod -a -G vendor myusername

To check for rocm support of the running HW, install and run rocminfo:

   sudo dnf install rocminfo
   rocminfo

TODO: Update once rocm-opencl or rocm-hip is added into Fedora/EPEL
