Package request: ROCm/ROCK-Kernel-Driver

[LunNova]

Project description

https://github.com/ROCm/ROCK-Kernel-Driver/ is an out-of-tree alternative version of amdgpu

It is required by AMD's ROCm software stack for:

• Multi-GPU collective operations implemented in RCCL
• RDMA/Infiniband multi-node collective operations

Mainline amdgpu is partially supported and falls back to much slower transfer methods/requires disabling P2P memory copies.

ROCK-Kernel-Driver may depend on building on an RDMA supporting linux kernel, with ib_peer_mem.
