It Turns Out AMDGPU KFD Compute Support Can Work On 64-bit ARM

It's not x86 specific. It's just FP and the FP code is only required for Raven APUs which are tied to x86 anyway and that code only gets enabled on platforms which support it.

Thanks for your clarification, does that mean that the AMD stack is in good shape for ARMv8 or even POWER9 (PPC64LE)?

In theory. We try and make our code as portable as possible, but we don't actively validate any non-x86 platforms in general. Anecdotally, a number of people have reported success on arm and ppc.
