HIP Intercept Layer

A library for intercepting and analyzing HIP API calls and kernel executions on AMD GPUs.

Overview

The HIP Intercept Layer provides tools to:

  • Intercept HIP API calls (memory operations, kernel launches)
  • Track GPU memory allocations and changes
  • Record kernel executions and their memory effects
  • Compare execution traces between different runs

Installation

  1. Prerequisites:

    • CMake 3.10+
    • chipStar Implementation of HIP
    • C++17 compiler

  2. Build:

    mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make -

  3. Set environment variables:

    # Set location for trace files
export HIP_TRACE_LOCATION=/path/to/trace/dir

default: $HOME/HipInterceptLayerTraces

Example Usage

LD_PRELOAD="/space/pvelesko/install/HIP/HipInterceptLayer/lib/libHIPIntercept.so /opt/rocm-6.2.4/lib/libamdhip64.so.6.2.60204"  /space/pvelesko/openmm/build/TestHipATMForce "single"

cd $HIP_TRACE_LOCATION
/space/pvelesko/install/HIP/HipInterceptLayer/bin/HipInterceptCompare ./TestHipATMForce-0.trace ./TestHipATMForce-1.trace
