AMD ROCm Software

ROCm is an open-source stack, composed primarily of open-source software, designed for graphics processing unit (GPU) computation. ROCm consists of a collection of drivers, development tools, and APIs that enable GPU programming from low-level kernel to end-user applications.

With ROCm, you can customize your GPU software to meet your specific needs. You can develop, collaborate, test, and deploy your applications in a free, open source, integrated, and secure software ecosystem. ROCm is particularly well-suited to GPU-accelerated high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI), scientific computing, and computer aided design (CAD).

ROCm is powered by AMD’s Heterogeneous-computing Interface for Portability (HIP), an open-source software C++ GPU programming environment and its corresponding runtime. HIP allows ROCm developers to create portable applications on different platforms by deploying code on a range of platforms, from dedicated gaming GPUs to exascale HPC clusters.

ROCm supports programming models, such as OpenMP and OpenCL, and includes all necessary open source software compilers, debuggers, and libraries. ROCm is fully integrated into machine learning (ML) frameworks, such as PyTorch and TensorFlow.

ROCm documentation

This repository contains the manifest file for ROCm releases, changelogs, and release information.

The default.xml file contains information for all repositories and the associated commit used to build the current ROCm release; default.xml uses the Manifest Format repository.

Source code for our documentation is located in the /docs folder of most ROCm repositories. The develop branch of our repositories contains content for the next ROCm release.

The ROCm documentation homepage is rocm.docs.amd.com.

Building our documentation

For a quick-start build, use the following code. For more options and detail, refer to Building documentation.

cd docs

pip3 install -r sphinx/requirements.txt

python3 -m sphinx -T -E -b html -d _build/doctrees -D language=en . _build/html

Alternatively, CMake build is supported.

cmake -B build

cmake --build build --target=doc

Older ROCm releases

For release information for older ROCm releases, refer to the CHANGELOG.
