AMD GPU ROCm

how to use amd grafic cards for speeding up calculations un tumbleweed similar tu nvidia with cuda

== Install rocm meta package

sudo zypper ar https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/science:/GPU:/ROCm:/Work/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ science_GPU_ROCm
sudo zypper ref
sudo zypper in rocm
sudo usermod -aG render  # restart session

Test Installation

clinfo -l

Should output something like this:

Platform #0: AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing
 +-- Device #0: gfx1201
 `-- Device #1: gfx1036

rocminfo | grep gfx

Should output something like

 Name:                    gfx1201                            
     Name:                    amdgcn-amd-amdhsa--gfx1201         
     Name:                    amdgcn-amd-amdhsa--gfx12-generic   
 Name:                    gfx1036                            
     Name:                    amdgcn-amd-amdhsa--gfx1036         
     Name:                    amdgcn-amd-amdhsa--gfx10-3-generic

PyTorch

for python projects like wyoming using pytorch add rocm support to a virtual environment. See https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/ for the current final pip command

cd your/venv/basedirectory
python3 -m venv wyoming
. wyoming/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm6.4

Test with (should print True)

python -c 'import torch; print(torch.cuda.is_available())'
