MIOpen prerequisites#

To install MIOpen, you must first install these prerequisites. These prerequisites apply to all types of MIOpen installations.

• A ROCm-enabled platform

• A base software stack that includes either:

  • HIP (HIP and HCC libraries and header files)

  • OpenCL (OpenCL libraries and header files) (Using MIOpen with OpenCL is now deprecated.)

• ROCm CMake: CMake modules for common build tasks needed for the ROCm software stack

• Half: An IEEE 754-based, half-precision floating-point library

• Boost: Version 1.79 is recommended, because older versions might need patches to work on newer systems

  • MIOpen uses the boost-system and boost-filesystem packages to enable persistent kernel cache

• SQLite3: A read-write performance database

• lbzip2: A multi-threaded compression and decompression utility

• rocBLAS: AMD’s library for Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS) on the ROCm platform.

  • Minimum version for pre-ROCm 3.5 master-rocm-2.10

  • Minimum version for post-ROCm 3.5 master-rocm-3.5

• Multi-Level Intermediate Representation (MLIR), with an MIOpen dialect to support and complement kernel development

• Composable Kernel: A C++ templated device library for GEMM-like and reduction-like operators.
