+# rocminfo
+ROCm Application for Reporting System Info 
+
+## To Build
+Use the standard cmake build procedure to build rocminfo. The location of ROCM root (parent directory containing ROCM headers and libraries) must be provided as a cmake argument. For example, building from the CMakeLists.txt directory might look like this:
+
+mkdir -p build
+
+cd build
+
+cmake -DROCM_DIR=<path to ROCM root> ..
+
+make
+
+cd ..
+
+
+Upon a successful build the binary, rocminfo, will be in the build folder.
