HIP code can be developed either on AMD ROCm platform using HIP-Clang compiler, or a CUDA platform with nvcc installed. Before build and run HIP, make sure drivers and pre-build packages are installed properly on the platform.
Install ROCm packages or pre-built binary packages using the package manager. Refer to the ROCm Installation Guide at https://rocm.docs.amd.com for more information on installing ROCm.
sudo apt install mesa-common-dev
sudo apt install clang
sudo apt install comgr
sudo apt-get -y install rocm-dkms
sudo apt-get install -y libelf-dev
Install Nvidia driver and pre-build packages (see HIP Installation Guide at https://docs.amd.com/ for the release)
Before get HIP source code, set the expected branch of repository at the variable ROCM_BRANCH
.
For example, for ROCm6.0 release branch, set
export ROCM_BRANCH=rocm-6.0.x
ROCm5.7 release branch, set
export ROCM_BRANCH=rocm-5.7.x
Similiar format for future branches.
ROCM_PATH
is path where ROCM is installed. BY default ROCM_PATH
is at /opt/rocm
.
git clone -b "$ROCM_BRANCH" https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/clr.git
git clone -b "$ROCM_BRANCH" https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/hip.git
git clone -b "$ROCM_BRANCH" https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/HIPCC.git
export CLR_DIR="$(readlink -f clr)"
export HIP_DIR="$(readlink -f hip)"
export HIPCC_DIR="$(readlink -f hipcc)"
Note, starting from ROCM 5.6 release, clr is a new repository including the previous ROCclr, HIPAMD and OpenCl repositories. ROCclr is defined on AMD platform that HIP uses Radeon Open Compute Common Language Runtime (ROCclr), which is a virtual device interface that HIP runtimes interact with different backends. HIPAMD provides implementation specifically for AMD platform. OpenCL provides headers that ROCclr runtime currently depends on.
cd "$HIPCC_DIR"
mkdir -p build; cd build
cmake ..
make -j4
cd "$CLR_DIR"
mkdir -p build; cd build
cmake -DHIP_COMMON_DIR=$HIP_DIR -DHIP_PLATFORM=amd -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/rocm/" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$PWD/install -DHIPCC_BIN_DIR=$HIPCC_DIR/build -DHIP_CATCH_TEST=0 -DCLR_BUILD_HIP=ON -DCLR_BUILD_OCL=OFF ..
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
Note, if CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
is not specified, hip runtime will be installed to <ROCM_PATH>/hip
.
By default, release version of HIP is built.
- By default HIP looks for HSA in
<ROCM_PATH>/hsa
(can be overridden by settingHSA_PATH
environment variable). - By default HIP is installed into
<ROCM_PATH>/hip
. - By default HIP looks for clang in
<ROCM_PATH>/llvm/bin
(can be overridden by settingHIP_CLANG_PATH
environment variable) - By default HIP looks for device library in
<ROCM_PATH>/lib
(can be overridden by settingDEVICE_LIB_PATH
environment variable). - Optionally, consider adding
<ROCM_PATH>/bin
to yourPATH
to make it easier to use the tools. - Optionally, set
HIPCC_VERBOSE=7
to output the command line for compilation.
When you add or change a HIP API, you must generate a new hip_prof_str.h
header. ROCm tools like ROCProfiler and ROCTracer use this header to track HIP APIs.
To generate the header after your change, use the tool hip_prof_gen.py
present in hipamd/src
.
Usage:
hip_prof_gen.py [-v] <input HIP API .h file> <patched srcs path> <previous output> [<output>]
Flags:
- -v - verbose messages
- -r - process source directory recursively
- -t - API types matching check
- --priv - private API check
- -e - on error exit mode
- -p - HIP_INIT_API macro patching mode
Example Usage:
hip_prof_gen.py -v -p -t --priv <hip>/include/hip/hip_runtime_api.h \
<hipamd>/src <hipamd>/include/hip/amd_detail/hip_prof_str.h \
<hipamd>/include/hip/amd_detail/hip_prof_str.h.new
HIP catch tests, with new architectured Catch2, are official seperated from HIP project, exist in HIP tests repository, can be built via the following instructions.
git clone -b "$ROCM_BRANCH" https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/hip-tests.git
export HIPTESTS_DIR="$(readlink -f hip-tests)"
cd "$HIPTESTS_DIR"
mkdir -p build; cd build
cmake ../catch -DHIP_PLATFORM=amd -DHIP_PATH=$CLR_DIR/build/install # or any path where HIP is installed, for example, /opt/rocm.
make -j$(nproc) build_tests # build tests
cd build/catch_tests && ctest # to run all tests.
HIP catch tests are built under the folder $HIPTESTS_DIR/build. Note that when using ctest, you can use different ctest options, for example, to run all tests with the keyword hipMemset,
ctest -R hipMemset
Use the below option will print test failures for failed tests,
ctest --output-on-failure
For more information, refer to https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.5/manual/ctest.1.html.
To run any single catch test, the following is an example,
cd $HIPTESTS_DIR/build/catch_tests/unit/texture
./TextureTest
HIP Catch2 supports build a standalone test, for example,
cd "$HIPTESTS_DIR"
hipcc $HIPTESTS_DIR/catch/unit/memory/hipPointerGetAttributes.cc -I ./catch/include ./catch/hipTestMain/standalone_main.cc -I ./catch/external/Catch2 -o hipPointerGetAttributes
./hipPointerGetAttributes
...
All tests passed
git clone -b "$ROCM_BRANCH" https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/hip.git
git clone -b "$ROCM_BRANCH" https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/clr.git
git clone -b "$ROCM_BRANCH" https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/HIPCC.git
export HIP_DIR="$(readlink -f hip)"
export CLR_DIR="$(readlink -f hipamd)"
export HIPCC_DIR="$(readlink -f hipcc)"
cd "$HIPCC_DIR"
mkdir -p build; cd build

cd "$CLR_DIR"
mkdir -p build; cd build
cmake -DHIP_COMMON_DIR=$HIP_DIR -DHIP_PLATFORM=nvidia -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$PWD/install -DHIPCC_BIN_DIR=$HIPCC_DIR/build -DHIP_CATCH_TEST=0 -DCLR_BUILD_HIP=ON -DCLR_BUILD_OCL=OFF ..
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
Build HIP tests commands on NVIDIA platform are basically the same as AMD, except set -DHIP_PLATFORM=nvidia
.
Compile and run the square sample.
