Package Information

DescriptionROCm library for basic linear algebra - library

rocBLAS is a library for performing basic linear algebra routines on AMD GPUs. It provides implementations of BLAS operations such as dot product (DOT), general matrix multiplication (GEMM), triangular matrix multiplication (TRMM), and many others. It is built on the AMD ROCm platform and optimized for discrete AMD GPUs. The rocBLAS library is implemented in the HIP programming language and is supplemented by tuned assembly kernels.

rocBLAS provides a C99 interface and supports operations on matrices of half-, single- or double-precision floating point numbers. The library provides variants for its routines that efficiently operate on batches of matrices and that support a variety of data layouts.

This package provides the AMD ROCm rocBLAS library.

Changelog
rocblas (7.2.4-1~exp1) experimental; urgency=medium
 .
   [ Talha Can Havadar ]
   * New upstream version 7.2.4
   * d/control: add XB-X-ROCm-GPU-Architecture metadata for binary packages.
     The packages bin:librocblas5-bench and bin:librocblas5-tests were
     missing this metadata. This is used to easily determine which ISAs that
     the package has been built for.
   * d/rules: use the exact ISA list from pkg-rocm-tools.
     We don't need to filter gfx11-generic as it is not in the updated ISA
     list anymore, once we have support for generics ready for tensile we
     should add this ISA into pkg-rocm-tools and then no change rebuild of
     rocblas would be sufficient. (LP: #2143315)
   * d/watch: update to point super repo
   * d/control: update Homepage to point super repo
   * d/upstream/metadata: update metadata to point super repo
   * d/control: bump llvm and rocm b-d
   * d/control: bump Standards-Version to 4.7.4
   * d/control: remove redundant Priority and Rules-Requires-Root
   * d/rules: bump llvm-21 to llvm-22
   * d/p/drop-Cijk_Ailk_Bjlk_4xi8-as-workaround.patch: not-needed
   * d/rules: harden the symbols check
   * d/p/handle-prefixed-hipconfig-version-output.patch: fix version parsing
   * d/librocblas5.symbols.amd64: add new symbols
   * d/upstream/metadata: fix Bug-Submit url
   * d/copyright: use super repo as source
   * d/copyright: add myself into copyright for debian files
   * d/control: fix Maintainer field leaked from ubuntu
   * d/librocblas5.lintian-overrides: make matching with wildcard
   * d/librocblas5.lintian-overrides: remove lintian-overrides for .co
 .
   [ Igor Luppi ]
   * 7.1.0-0ubuntu3 (patches unapplied)
   * d/p/Enable-changing-directory-for-test-data.patch: fall back to binary dir
     for test data
   * d/rules: fix BUILD_CLIENTS_TESTS expansion emitting "ON ON"
   * d/{rules,p/move-tensile-library-into-versioned-subdir.patch}: fix Tensile
     path drift by switching to SONAME major version
