Milan Radosavljevic a9082a7158 ROCpd schema fetching from rocprofiler-sdk (#1501)
- Integrate rocprofiler-systems with rocprofiler-sdk-rocpd to fetch schema
- If rocprofiler-sdk-rocpd is not availabe, use embedded schema files. With this we provide rocpd format support even if ROCm is not available
- Include detection in CMake if rocprofiler-sdk-rocpd package is available (and valid), and build database class upon that
- Update embedded schema that is used as a fallback.
- Update some validation tests to account for schema changes.

# Changelog for ROCm Systems Profiler
Full documentation for ROCm Systems Profiler is available at [https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocprofiler-systems/en/latest/](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocprofiler-systems/en/latest/).
## ROCm Systems Profiler 1.3.0 for ROCm 7.2.0
### Added
- Added a `ROCPROFSYS_PERFETTO_FLUSH_PERIOD_MS` configuration setting to set the flush period for Perfetto traces. The default value is 10000 ms (10 seconds).
- Added tracing of VAAPI, MPI and host events inside `rocpd` output database.
- Added fetching of the `rocpd` schema from rocprofiler-sdk-rocpd
### Changed
- Improved Fortran main function detection to ensure `rocprof-sys-instrument` uses the Fortran program main function instead of the C wrapper.
### Resolved issues
- Fixed a crash when running `rocprof-sys-python` with ROCPROFSYS_USE_ROCPD enabled.
- Fixed an issue where kernel/memory-copy events could appear on the wrong Perfetto track (e.g., queue track when stream grouping was requested) because _group_by_queue state leaked between records.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 1.2.0 for ROCm 7.1.0
### Added
- ``ROCPROFSYS_ROCM_GROUP_BY_QUEUE`` configuration setting to allow grouping of events by hardware queue, instead of the default grouping.
- Support for `rocpd` database output with the `ROCPROFSYS_USE_ROCPD` configuration setting.
- Support for profiling PyTorch workloads using the `rocpd` output database.
- Support for tracing OpenMP API in Fortran applications.
- An error warning that is triggered if the profiler application fails due to SELinux enforcement being enabled. The warning includes steps to disable SELinux enforcement.
### Changed
- Updated the grouping of "kernel dispatch" and "memory copy" events in Perfetto traces. They are now grouped together by HIP Stream rather than separately and by hardware queue.
- Updated PAPI module to v7.2.0b2.
- ROCprofiler-SDK is now used for tracing OMPT API calls.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 1.1.1 for ROCm 7.0.2
### Resolved issues
- Fixed an issue where ROC-TX ranges were displayed as two separate events instead of a single spanning event.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 1.1.0 for ROCm 7.0
### Added
- Profiling and metric collection capabilities for VCN engine activity, JPEG engine activity, and API tracing for rocDecode, rocJPEG, and VA-APIs.
- How-to document for VCN and JPEG activity sampling and tracing.
- Support for tracing Fortran applications.
- Support for tracing MPI API in Fortran.
### Changed
- Replaced ROCm SMI backend with AMD SMI backend for collecting GPU metrics.
- ROCprofiler-SDK is now used to trace RCCL API and collect communication counters.
- Use the setting `ROCPROFSYS_USE_RCCLP = ON` to enable profiling and tracing of RCCL application data.
- Updated the Dyninst submodule to v13.0.
- Set the default value of `ROCPROFSYS_SAMPLING_CPUS` to `none`.
### Resolved issues
- Fixed GPU metric collection settings with `ROCPROFSYS_AMD_SMI_METRICS`.
- Fixed a build issue with CMake 4.
- Fixed incorrect kernel names shown for kernel dispatch tracks in Perfetto.
- Fixed formatting of some output logs.
- Fixed an issue where ROC-TX ranges were displayed as two separate events instead of a single spanning event.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 1.0.2 for ROCm 6.4.2
### Optimized
- Improved readability of the OpenMP target offload traces by showing on a single Perfetto track.
### Resolved issues
- Fixed the file path to the script that merges Perfetto files from multi-process MPI runs. The script has also been renamed from `merge-multiprocess-output.sh` to `rocprof-sys-merge-output.sh`.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 1.0.1 for ROCm 6.4.1
### Added
- How-to document for [network performance profiling](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocprofiler-systems/en/amd-staging/how-to/nic-profiling.html) for standard Network Interface Cards (NICs).
### Resolved issues
- Fixed a build issue with Dyninst on GCC 13.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 1.0.0 for ROCm 6.4.0
### Added
- Support for VA-API and rocDecode tracing.
- Aggregation of MPI data collected across distributed nodes and ranks. The data is concatenated into a single proto file.
### Changed
- Backend refactored to use ROCprofiler-SDK rather than ROCProfiler and ROCTracer.
### Resolved issues
- Fixed hardware counter summary files not being generated after profiling.
- Fixed an application crash when collecting performance counters with ROCProfiler.
- Fixed interruption in config file generation.
- Fixed segmentation fault while running `rocprof-sys-instrument`.
- Fixed an issue where running `rocprof-sys-causal` or using the `-I all` option with `rocprof-sys-sample` caused the system to become non-responsive.
- Fixed an issue where sampling multi-GPU Python workloads caused the system to stop responding.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 0.1.1 for ROCm 6.3.2
### Resolved issues
- Fixed an error when building from source on some SUSE and RHEL systems when using the `ROCPROFSYS_BUILD_DYNINST` option.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 0.1.0 for ROCm 6.3.1
### Added
- Improvements to support OMPT target offload.
### Resolved issues
- Fixed an issue with generated Perfetto files.
- Fixed an issue with merging multiple `.proto` files.
- Fixed an issue causing GPU resource data to be missing from traces of Instinct MI300A systems.
- Fixed a minor issue for users upgrading to ROCm 6.3 from 6.2 post-rename from `omnitrace`.
## ROCm Systems Profiler 0.1.0 for ROCm 6.3.0
### Changed
- Renamed Omnitrace to ROCm Systems Profiler.
## Omnitrace 1.11.2 for ROCm 6.2.1
### Known issues
- Perfetto can no longer open Omnitrace proto files. Loading the Perfetto trace output `.proto` file in `ui.perfetto.dev` can
result in a dialog with the message, "Oops, something went wrong! Please file a bug." The information in the dialog will
refer to an "Unknown field type." The workaround is to open the files with the previous version of the Perfetto UI found
at <https://ui.perfetto.dev/v46.0-35b3d9845/#!/>.
