RadeonOpenCompute is a free set of drivers, libraries, and utilities for implementing OpenCL and machine learning technologies for AMD graphics platforms. Developed by AMD.
The set includes the rock-dkms kernel module, HCC compilers, HIP and rocm-clang-ocl version, libraries for OpenCL support, sets of libraries and examples for implementing basic machine learning algorithms.
In the new release:
- Support for new video cards based on Vega20 7nm
- Support for Ubuntu 20.04/18.04, RHEL/Centos 7.8 and 8.2, SLES15
- New hipfort library to support acceleration of computations on video cards for the Fortran language
- ROCm Data Cetner Tool - a new utility for monitoring video cards and tasks performed on them
- Now it is possible to statically link ROCm libraries in applications
- GFX9 video cards (Radeon Vega 56/64, Radeon VII) now do not require PCIe Atomics support, which means they can run on a wider range of processors and motherboards
- GFX9 graphics cards can work via Thunderbolt interface
Attention! Upgrading from previous versions is not supported! You need to completely uninstall previous versions of ROCm before installing ROCm 3.8.0!
