(Unreleased) HIP 5.7 (For ROCm 5.7)

Optimizations

Added

• Added meta_group_size/rank for getting the number of tiles and rank of a tile in the partition

• Added new APIs supporting Windows only, under development on Linux

  • hipMallocMipmappedArray for allocating a mipmapped array on the device

  • hipFreeMipmappedArray for freeing a mipmapped array on the device

  • hipGetMipmappedArrayLevel for getting a mipmap level of a HIP mipmapped array

  • hipMipmappedArrayCreate for creating a mipmapped array

  • hipMipmappedArrayDestroy for destroy a mipmapped array

  • hipMipmappedArrayGetLevel for getting a mipmapped array on a mipmapped level

• Added new HIP APIs, still under developement

  • hipGraphAddExternalSemaphoresWaitNode for creating a external semaphor wait node and adds it to a graph

  • hipGraphAddExternalSemaphoresSignalNode for creating a external semaphor signal node and adds it to a graph

  • hipGraphExternalSemaphoresSignalNodeSetParams for updating node parameters in the external semaphore signal node

  • hipGraphExternalSemaphoresWaitNodeSetParams for updating node parameters in the external semaphore wait node

  • hipGraphExternalSemaphoresSignalNodeGetParams for returning external semaphore signal node params

  • hipGraphExternalSemaphoresWaitNodeGetParams for returning external semaphore wait node params

  • hipGraphExecExternalSemaphoresSignalNodeSetParams for updating node parameters in the external semaphore signal node in the given graphExec

  • hipGraphExecExternalSemaphoresWaitNodeSetParams for updating node parameters in the external semaphore wait node in the given graphExec

Changed

Fixed

HIP 5.6 (For ROCm 5.6)

Optimizations

• Consolidation of hipamd, rocclr and OpenCL projects in clr
• Optimized lock for graph global capture mode

Added

• Added hipRTC support for amd_hip_fp16
• Added hipStreamGetDevice implementation to get the device assocaited with the stream
• Added HIP_AD_FORMAT_SIGNED_INT16 in hipArray formats
• hipArrayGetInfo for getting information about the specified array
• hipArrayGetDescriptor for getting 1D or 2D array descriptor
• hipArray3DGetDescriptor to get 3D array descriptor

Changed

• hipMallocAsync to return success for zero size allocation to match hipMalloc
• Separation of hipcc perl binaries from HIP project to hipcc project. hip-devel package depends on newly added hipcc package
• Consolidation of hipamd, ROCclr, and OpenCL repositories into a single repository called clr. Instructions are updated to build HIP from sources in the HIP Installation guide
• Removed hipBusBandwidth and hipCommander samples from hip-tests

Fixed

• Fixed regression in hipMemCpyParam3D when offset is applied

Known Issues

• Limited testing on xnack+ configuration
  • Multiple HIP tests failures (gpuvm fault or hangs)

Upcoming changes in future release

• Removal of gcnarch from hipDeviceProp_t structure
• Addition of new fields in hipDeviceProp_t structure
  • maxTexture1D
  • maxTexture2D
  • maxTexture1DLayered
  • maxTexture2DLayered
  • sharedMemPerMultiprocessor
  • deviceOverlap
  • asyncEngineCount
  • surfaceAlignment
  • unifiedAddressing
  • computePreemptionSupported
  • uuid
• Removal of deprecated code
  • hip-hcc codes from hip code tree
• Correctness of hipArray usage in HIP APIs
• HIPMEMCPY_3D fields correction (unsigned int -> size_t)
