RDC API
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
RDC API is the core library that provides all the RDC features.
|
|
|
|
RDC API includes the following libraries:
|
|
|
|
* ``librdc_bootstrap.so``: Loads one of the following two libraries during runtime, depending on the mode.
|
|
|
|
- ``rdci`` mode: Loads ``librdc_client.so``
|
|
- ``rdcd`` mode: Loads ``librdc.so``
|
|
|
|
* ``librdc_client.so``: Exposes RDC functionality using ``gRPC`` client.
|
|
|
|
* ``librdc.so``: RDC API. This depends on ``libamd_smi.so``.
|
|
|
|
* ``libamd_smi.so``: Stateless low overhead access to GPU data.
