Unofficial Radeon ROCm Packages Re-Enable APU Support

[coder]

I've been running Einstein @ Home and Seti @ Home ( GPU tasks ) on a Ryzen 2700 APU for 6 months or so. I assume these are OpenCL.

Ryzen 2700 is not an APU. APU means integrated graphics, so it's chips like the Ryzen 3 2200G and Ryzen 5 2400G. There are also low-power GE versions, and then 3000-series equivalents (don't be fooled by the numbering - the 3000-series are still using 12 nm Zen+ - not 7 nm Zen2).

Q: I am looking for the patches to enable ROCm on APUs. Can you share them?

A: Unfortunately not. Bruhnspace cannot share the patches.

I feel like I'm the only one who clicks the links in the articles around here.

I did follow the link, I found all their binaries, I really didn't think they wouldn't be sharing their code though

I was kinda hoping it was going to be a simple switch they flicked to allow it, I was going to see if the same would work for my Tonga card which doesn't seem to be supported either

Or he means Ryzen 7 2700U.

Oh, thanks for catching that. I haven't paid much attention to their laptop chips.

it's more like:
AMD(2016): Buy APUs! It's next next heterogeneous thing! Call it HSA!
AMD: Don't call it HSA it's ROCm now!
AMD (2018): Fck everybody who bought APUs. We don't support them in ROCm anymore.

A bad corporate joke is still a joke, but you're right

C'mon AMD, you can play it a lot less dirty these days with all the Chinese money...

It's only time and priorities (limited resources), I think we all will get the support only not now.

At least we hope so
