## SRU ##
[ Impact ]
- * This update bumps `hipblas` from upstream 7.1.1 to 7.2.4 as part of
- the coordinated ROCm 7.2 stack release. The public ABI of
- `libhipblas.so.3` is unchanged: the only differences in
- `library/include/hipblas.h` are documentation-comment updates (the
- removal of references to the now-deprecated `WORKBUF_TRSM_B_CHNK`
- environment variable). No symbol additions, removals, or signature
- changes occur.

- * Upstream functional changes in this range are confined to the
- client/test infrastructure that ships in `libhipblas3-tests` and
- `libhipblas3-bench`:
- - Correct `host_alloc` accounting so the
- `HIPBLAS_CLIENT_RAM_GB_LIMIT` environment variable bounds memory
- consumption as documented (PR #2214).
- - Link clients against 64-bit-index LAPACK and CBLAS (`lapack64`,
- `cblas64`) so `hipblas-test` and `hipblas-bench` produce correct
- results when built against non-AOCL system math libraries — this
- is the path Debian/Ubuntu uses (PR #2098).
- - Add a `BUILD_FORTRAN_CLIENTS` CMake option for clients (PR #1761).
- - Suppress false Clang static-analysis findings in tests (PR
- upstream).

- 7.2.x), removing the cross-version skew that currently exists between
- them.

[ Test Plan ]
1. Build:
- - `dpkg-buildpackage` succeeds in a resolute chroot for amd64 and
- under the Launchpad PPA builders for both resolute (26.04) and
- stonking (26.10).
- - `dpkg --compare-versions 7.2.4-0ubuntu1 gt 7.1.1-0ubuntu1` is
- true.
- - `debian/libhipblas3.symbols` is unchanged. With
- `export DPKG_GENSYMBOLS_CHECK_LEVEL = 4` set in `debian/rules`,
- `dh_makeshlibs` runs in strict mode during the build and reports
- no added, removed, or changed public symbols.
+ - `dpkg-buildpackage` succeeds in a resolute chroot for amd64 and
+ under the Launchpad PPA builders for both resolute (26.04) and
+ stonking (26.10).
+ - `dpkg --compare-versions 7.2.4-1~exp1 gt 7.1.1-0ubuntu1` is
+ true.
+ - `debian/libhipblas3.symbols` is unchanged. With
+ `export DPKG_GENSYMBOLS_CHECK_LEVEL = 4` set in `debian/rules`,
+ `dh_makeshlibs` runs in strict mode during the build and reports
+ no added, removed, or changed public symbols.
2. Installability:
- - `apt install libhipblas3 libhipblas-dev libhipblas3-tests
- libhipblas3-tests-data libhipblas3-bench libhipblas-doc` completes
- without dependency errors.
- - SONAME stays at `libhipblas.so.3`; reverse dependencies
- (`hipsolver`, `hipsparse`, `magma`, downstream consumers in the
- ROCm stack) remain installable without a rebuild.
+ - `apt install libhipblas3 libhipblas-dev libhipblas3-tests
+ libhipblas3-tests-data libhipblas3-bench libhipblas-doc` completes
+ without dependency errors.
+ - SONAME stays at `libhipblas.so.3`; reverse dependencies
+ (`hipsolver`, `hipsparse`, `magma`, downstream consumers in the
+ ROCm stack) remain installable without a rebuild.
3. Autopkgtest:
- - The package ships a single test stanza in `debian/tests/control`
- that runs `/usr/libexec/rocm/libhipblas3-tests/run-tests`, which
- drives the upstream `hipblas-test` GoogleTest binary against a
- real AMD GPU.
- - Two independent runs were executed on a real ROCm GPU testbed
- (`rocmtest`, lxd ubuntu-daily:resolute, profile `rocm-gpu`)
- against the resolute PPA build:

[ Where problems could occur ]
- * Because the public library is functionally unchanged (only doc
- comments differ in the public header and the recorded symbols file
- verifies bit-for-bit), regression risk is concentrated in two
- narrow areas:
- - Test-suite memory accounting: the corrected `host_alloc` counter
- now decrements after `free()` rather than before, which means a
- test run constrained by `HIPBLAS_CLIENT_RAM_GB_LIMIT` will see
- slightly different timing / memory pressure. Symptom of
- regression would be a previously-passing test exceeding the
- configured limit and failing with an OOM-style abort, observable
- only when running `hipblas-test` with that environment variable
- set; not exercised by the default autopkgtest.
- - Linking to `lapack64`/`cblas64` adds a runtime dependency on the
- 64-bit-index Netlib libraries already used elsewhere in the ROCm
- Debian stack (already pulled in by Build-Depends for years).
- Symptom of breakage would be `hipblas-test` failing to start with
- a missing symbol from `libcblas64`/`liblapack64`; this would be
- caught immediately by autopkgtest, which currently passes all
- 47216 tests.
- * Risk to consumers of the shared library is bounded by the
- strict-symbols check (`DPKG_GENSYMBOLS_CHECK_LEVEL=4`) — any drift in
- the `libhipblas3` ABI would have failed the build before the PPA
- upload.
