Public bug reported: Please sync rocprim 5.7.1-2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)
This sync requires a FeatureFreeze exception. This package version requires rocm-hipamd 5.7.1, which is being tracked in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rocm-hipamd/+bug/2058606. # Why a new upstream version is necessary 1. The upstream ROCm 5.7.1 version was the last release of the ROCm 5 series. While both ROCm 5.5 and ROCm 5.7 are no longer supported upstream, there will be a much larger community using ROCm 5.7. Knowledge sharing within this larger community will be beneficial for the long-term maintenance of the noble release. 2. The versions of ROCm components included on Ubuntu Noble are very inconsistent. This FeatureFreeze exception is one of several that I will be filing in an attempt to get as much of the ROCm stack as possible onto the upstream 5.7.1 release. The narrower the range of versions, the better. Ubuntu does not have significant automated testing for the AMD GPU libraries, so it is safer to use versions that closely correspond to what upstream and Debian are using (as both do significant testing on these libraries). Honestly, the changes to the Debian packaging from this sync are more valuable than the upstream changes in rocprim. The debian patches fix rocthrust, hipcub and rocsparse on Navi 22, Navi 23, Navi 24, and Rembrandt hardware. Still, I would still strongly recommend the upgrade to get the entire ROCm stack onto the same version. # Other Notes The build log (using rocm-hipamd 5.7.1-3) is attached and includes the build tests. The upstream change log is also attached. ** Affects: rocprim (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "rocprim-5.7.1-2-build.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2060565/+attachment/5762208/+files/rocprim-5.7.1-2-build.txt ** Description changed: Please sync rocprim 5.7.1-2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main) This sync requires a FeatureFreeze exception.
