ROCm 6.1.1 release notes

ROCm™ 6.1.1 introduces minor fixes and improvements to some tools and libraries.

OS support

ROCm 6.1.1 has been tested against a pre-release version of Ubuntu 22.04.5 (kernel 6.8).

AMD SMI

AMD SMI for ROCm 6.1.1

Additions

  • Added deferred error correctable counts to amd-smi metric -ecc -ecc-blocks.

Changes

  • Updated the output of amd-smi metric --ecc-blocks to show counters available from blocks.
  • Updated the output of amd-smi metric --clock to reflect each engine.
  • Updated the output of amd-smi topology --json to align with output reported by host and guest systems.

Fixes

  • Fixed amd-smi metric --clock's clock lock and deep sleep status.
  • Fixed an issue that would cause an error when resetting non-AMD GPUs.
  • Fixed amd-smi metric --pcie and amdsmi_get_pcie_info() when using RDNA3 (Navi 32 and Navi 31) hardware to prevent "UNKNOWN" reports.
  • Fixed the output results of amd-smi process when getting processes running on a device.

Removals

  • Removed the amdsmi_get_gpu_process_info API from the Python library. It was removed from the C library in an earlier release.

Known issues

  • amd-smi bad-pages can result in a ValueError: Null pointer access error when using some PMU firmware versions.
See the [detailed changelog](https://github.com/ROCm/amdsmi/blob/docs/6.1.1/CHANGELOG.md) with code samples for more information.

HIPCC

HIPCC for ROCm 6.1.1

Changes

  • Upcoming: a future release will enable use of compiled binaries hipcc.bin and hipconfig.bin by default. No action is needed by users. You can continue calling high-level Perl scripts hipcc and hipconfig. hipcc.bin and hipconfig.bin will be invoked by the high-level Perl scripts. To revert to the previous behavior and invoke hipcc.pl and hipconfig.pl, set the HIP_USE_PERL_SCRIPTS environment variable to 1.
  • Upcoming: a subsequent release will remove high-level Perl scripts hipcc and hipconfig. This release will remove the HIP_USE_PERL_SCRIPTS environment variable. It will rename hipcc.bin and hipconfig.bin to hipcc and hipconfig respectively. No action is needed by the users. To revert to the previous behavior, invoke hipcc.pl and hipconfig.pl explicitly.
  • Upcoming: a subsequent release will remove hipcc.pl and hipconfig.pl.

HIPIFY

HIPIFY for ROCm 6.1.1

Additions

  • Added support for LLVM 18.1.2.
  • Added support for cuDNN 9.0.0.
  • Added a new option: --clang-resource-directory to specify the clang resource path (the path to the parent folder for the include folder that contains __clang_cuda_runtime_wrapper.h and other header files used during the hipification process).

ROCm SMI

ROCm SMI for ROCm 6.1.1

Known issues

  • ROCm SMI reports GPU utilization incorrectly for RDNA3 GPUs in some situations.
