Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
ROCTx is a comprehensive library that implements the AMD code annotation API. It provides
|
|
essential functionality for:
|
|
|
|
- Event annotation and marking
|
|
- Code range tracking and management
|
|
- Profiler control and customization
|
|
- Thread and device naming capabilities
|
|
|
|
Key features:
|
|
|
|
- Nested range tracking with push/pop functionality
|
|
- Process-wide range management
|
|
- Thread-specific and global profiler control
|
|
- Device and stream naming support
|
|
- HSA agent and HIP device management
|
|
|
|
The API is divided into several main components:
|
|
|
|
1. **Markers** - For single event annotations
|
|
2. **Ranges** - For tracking code execution spans
|
|
3. **Profiler Control** - For managing profiling tool behavior
|
|
4. **Naming Utilities** - For labeling threads, devices, and streams
|
|
|
|
Thread Safety:
|
|
|
|
- Range operations are thread-local and thread-safe
|
|
- Marking operations are thread-safe
|
|
- Profiler control operations are process-wide
|
|
|
|
Integration:
|
|
|
|
- Compatible with HIP runtime
|
|
- Supports HSA (Heterogeneous System Architecture)
|
|
- Provides both C and C++ interfaces
|
|
|
|
Performance Considerations:
|
|
|
|
- Minimal overhead for marking and range operations
|
|
- Thread-local storage for efficient range stacking
|
|
- Lightweight profiler control mechanisms
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
All string parameters must be null-terminated.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
Proper nesting of range push/pop operations is the user's responsibility.
