solution for Radeo pro GPU

Hi,
What is the best recommended solution to use Radeon Pro GPU for deep learning on Tumbleweed, while AMD pro driver is not supporting Tumbleweed?
Is that using rolling release like Tumbleweed as ML/Deep learning desktop makes any sense?

Regards

Hi
Probably some more details on the card and applications would help…

Is the card in the system? If so what is the output from;


/sbin/lspci -nnk | egrep -A3 "VGA|Display|3D"

There are some issues with the current newer cards that don’t have support in the Leap 15.1 kernel, need to wait for (or test) Leap 15.2 which will have a 5.x.x kernel.

Installing the amdgpu-pro driver is a bit of a downgrade IMHO, but there is a lot of effort on the AMD side with the oss amdgpu driver and if something isn’t working bug reports are always a good idea.

Thank you very much for note.
here is the output of the Display:

VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Ellesmere [Radeon Pro WX 7100] [1002:67c4]
    Subsystem: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Device [1002:0b0d]
    Kernel driver in use: amdgpu
    Kernel modules: amdgpu


Hi
A GCN 4.0 (Polaris) card, so should work fine with openCL and Vulkan and the oss driver? What tests have you done to see the performance?

Thank you.
I haven’t done any test yet. just fresh installed Tumbleweed and tried “glmark2” to see the difference between pro driver I had on centos and new Tumbelweed with amdgpu.
If you have suggestion to test it properly I highly appreciate it and will share the result here.

Many thanks

Hi
Vulkan and run vkmark, what about clinfo? I also have radeon-profile and radeon-profile-daemon in my testing repo. Try a distributed project using boinc, try a chess engine (lc0 is in my testing repo to).

Thank you.
Vkmark score : 12407
clinfo : Number of platfrom 0

I have just followed this blog to install ROCm on Tumbleweed.
Despite that Tumbleweed is not supported OS for ROCm, but installed these mentioned packages and have some changes now:

Malcolm’s lc0 packages are one way to test.
Probably the most common “first project” app I hear people run that can benefit directly from GPU computing is OpenCV which is visual pattern recognition and identification

https://opencv.org/opencl/

Has been around for ages and is the basis for numerous video monitoring apps.

Hi
Looks like it’s partially working, still not recognized then if Number of devices is 0… Perhaps your device is not supported… AFAIK it’s for NGG (2019~2020) cards.

I think this time might be ok!

Hi
That’s better :slight_smile:

:slight_smile: Now I’m going to try OpenCV and see how it goes
Thanks

Hi
Try blender as well…

first try of blender benchmark!

PlatformError: X11: The DISPLAY environment variable is missing
panic: NotInitialized: The GLFW library is not initialized

Hi
Do the following commands work?


rocminfo
rocm-clinfo

Why not Leap, but TW?
For Radeon Pro WX 7100 you need AMD proprietary driver: https://www.amd.com/ru/support/professional-graphics/radeon-pro/radeon-pro-wx-x100-series/radeon-pro-wx-7100 .
How to install: https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ .

For using ROCm you need supported CPU with “PCI Express 3.0 with PCIe atomics”: https://rocm.github.io/hardware.html (for GCN4).

That Radeo pro driver is not supporting leap 15.1
It has just leap 15. tryied to install on leap15.1 but didnot work

Hi,
Doing nothing !

Just no output when the commands are run? If so, then guess it’s not working…
