AMD Releases Radeon ROCm 1.5

[nevion]

It is fully open source other than OpenCL AFAIK, and we are continuing to work on opening up OpenCL.

Is there something else closed-source which I missed ?

bridgman Why does it take so long to open up OpenCL? I'm not holding hot pokers here but this step really is taking longer than I hoped so I'm hoping you can inform us as to why. Also, what's the status on axing the closed source hsail component? My google-fu wasn't strong enough to find the current situation and I'm not really sure where to find a "changelog" other than looking through the distributed commit histories... which I also tried and always ends as a time sink.

It's now a 4.9 kernel: https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute...tree/roc-1.5.0
