Note for anyone who has a Polaris GPU (Radeon RX 5xx) debugging issues with this package; Packages that use OpenCL like clinfo or davinci-resolve-studio will need you to downgrade opencl-amd to 1:5.7.1-1 as well as amdgpu-pro-oglp to 23.10_1620044-1 to avoid coredumps & segfaults.

DVR would not open unless these 2 packages were downgraded (along with their dependencies). Had to figure it out the hard way after hours using valgrind and rebooting over and over. Hopefully someone else will not have to pull their hair out trying to resolve their issue.

@cuysaurus I tried to build it myself with instructions from rocm docs

cmake -B build -S . -DUSE_GPU=1 -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/opt/rocm/

For me it fails for a different reason afterwards but maybe you have better luck.

I'm trying to build lightgbm with gpu support, but Opencl is not found.

What can I do? On other application I can choose gpu platform and device. I can confirm that GPU acell is working.This is the output of clinfo --list

@nho1ix it seems that rocm<6.2 supports RX5xx (gfx803) with some modifications and git Tensile and rocblas

I've updated to 6.3.1. rocm-<ver> is no more. Please report if anything is not working properly.

Thank you @luciddream. For now I will keep using this as you said its more upto date and also install opencl-amd-dev along with opencl-amd.

@freewick I guess there were not many differences in the packages (they are supposed to do the same thing) which is why it was working for you.

If you want to keep the official packages you have to install both rocm-opencl-sdk and rocm-hip-sdk. Which is why I'm guessing you get the second error. You only have rocm-opencl-sdk installed.

I recommend to keep what's best for you. In a perfect world official packages would be better but we don't live in one. Last update for the official packages took over 6 months I think while opencl-amd gets updated as soon as AMD releases a new version.

edit: if you decide to go with opencl-amd you also need opencl-amd-dev for the full ROCm capabilities.

Thanks @luciddream.

So may I know why I didn't get any issue until now as I think I installed both of them a long time back and don't have any issue until now.

Also I am using these to for machine learning. So which package do you recommend me to keep?

Edit: Also when I am trying to uninstall I am getting this dependency error from rocm package itself that u mentioned :D

❯ paru -R opencl-amd
checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing opencl-amd breaks dependency 'rocm-core' required by rocm-opencl-sdk

:: removing opencl-amd breaks dependency 'rocm-opencl-runtime' required by rocm-opencl-sdk
:: removing opencl-amd breaks dependency 'hsakmt-roct' required by rocm-opencl-sdk

Edit2: I uninstalled rocm-opencl-sdk and the update seems working fine. So thanks. Also will ml works with rocm-opencl-sdk only since it is official and in extra as I used this package only to run ml tasks?

Hi @freewick.

hsakmt-roct (The ROCT Thunk Interface) is now integrated into the ROCr runtime for 6.3.0 release which is why it's missing.

It looks to me you have accidentally installed both the official ROCm packages (rocm-opencl-sdk) and opencl-amd.

You can't have both, you have to choose one or the other :)

I will add it to conflicts section for the next release so more people don't make the same mistake.

Hello everyone. First time commenting here. I am unable to update this. I am getting the following error.

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing opencl-amd (1:6.3.0-1) breaks dependency 'hsakmt-roct' required by rocm-opencl-sdk
 -> error installing: [/home/wick/.cache/yay/opencl-amd/opencl-amd-1:6.3.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst /home/wick/.cache/yay/opencl-amd/opencl-amd-debug-1:6.3.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst] - exit status 1

I even tried chaotic-aur prebuilt packages and it has the same issue too. Basically I added it to IgnorePkg for now and any idea as to how to solve this?

@HurricanePootis

I've reconsidered about the /opt/rocm directory. It feels like following logic is a losing battle and I don't want opencl-amd to become irrelevant, especially when blender is important.

Also I'm more open to experimentation as long there is enough feedback from people. I would like to know how other packages deal with leftover files before I make this change.

e.g what happens when someone wants to upgrade opencl-amd but blender is also installed inside of it? I guess the only worrying thing will be outdated directory permissions.
