ROCmValidationSuite#

The ROCm Validation Suite (RVS) is a system administrator’s and cluster manager’s tool for detecting and troubleshooting common problems affecting AMD GPU(s) running in a high-performance computing environment, enabled using the ROCm software stack on a compatible platform.

The RVS is a collection of tests, benchmarks and qualification tools each targeting a specific sub-system of the ROCm platform. All of the tools are implemented in software and share a common command line interface. Each set of tests are implemented in a “module” which is a library encapsulating the functionality specific to the tool. The CLI can specify the directory containing modules to use when searching for libraries to load. Each module may have a set of options that it defines and a configuration file that supports its execution.

The function of each module see this link.

Examples and about config files link.

Prerequisites#

Please do this before compilation/installing compiled package.

Ubuntu :

    sudo apt-get -y update && sudo apt-get install -y libpci3 libpci-dev doxygen unzip cmake git

CentOS :

    sudo yum install -y cmake3 doxygen pciutils-devel rpm rpm-build git gcc-c++

RHEL :

   sudo yum install -y cmake3 doxygen rpm rpm-build git gcc-c++ 
    
   wget http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/pciutils-devel-3.5.1-3.el7.x86_64.rpm
    
   sudo rpm -ivh pciutils-devel-3.5.1-3.el7.x86_64.rpm

SLES :

   sudo SUSEConnect -p sle-module-desktop-applications/15.1/x86_64
   
   sudo SUSEConnect --product sle-module-development-tools/15.1/x86_64
   
   sudo zypper  install -y cmake doxygen pciutils-devel libpci3 rpm git rpm-build gcc-c++ 

Install ROCm stack, rocblas and rocm-smi-lib#

Install ROCm stack for Ubuntu/CentOS/SLES/RHEL, Refer RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm

Note:

rocm_smi64 package has been renamed to rocm-smi-lib64 from >= ROCm3.0. If you are using ROCm release < 3.0 , install the package as “rocm_smi64”. rocm-smi-lib64 package has been renamed to rocm-smi-lib from >= ROCm4.1.

Install rocBLAS and rocm-smi-lib :

Ubuntu :

       sudo apt-get install rocblas rocm-smi-lib

CentOS & RHEL :

       sudo yum install --nogpgcheck rocblas rocm-smi-lib

SUSE :

       sudo zypper install rocblas rocm-smi-lib

Note: If rocm-smi-lib is already installed but “/opt/rocm/rocm_smi/ path doesn’t exist. Do below:

Ubuntu : sudo dpkg -r rocm-smi-lib && sudo apt install rocm-smi-lib

CentOS & RHEL : sudo rpm -e rocm-smi-lib && sudo yum install rocm-smi-lib

SUSE : sudo rpm -e rocm-smi-lib && sudo zypper install rocm-smi-lib

Building from Source#

This section explains how to get and compile current development stream of RVS.

Clone repository#

git clone https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/ROCmValidationSuite.git

Configure and build RVS:#

cd ROCmValidationSuite

If OS is Ubuntu and SLES, use cmake

 cmake  -DROCM_PATH=<rocm_installed_path> -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<rocm_installed_path> -DCMAKE_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX=<rocm_installed_path> ./ -B./build
 eg/- cmake -DROCM_PATH=/opt/rocm-4.0.0 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/rocm-4.0.0 -DCMAKE_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/rocm-4.0.0 ./ -B./build
 
 make -C ./build

If OS is CentOS and RHEL, use cmake3

cmake3  -DROCM_PATH=<rocm_installed_path> -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<rocm_installed_path> -DCMAKE_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX=<rocm_installed_path> ./ -B./build

make -C ./build

Build package:#

 cd ./build
 
 make package

Note:_ based on your OS, only DEB or RPM package will be built. You may ignore an error for the unrelated configuration

Install package:#

Ubuntu : sudo dpkg -i rocm-validation-suite*.deb
CentOS & RHEL & SUSE : sudo rpm -i --replacefiles --nodeps rocm-validation-suite*.rpm

Note: RVS is getting packaged as part of ROCm release starting from 3.0. You can install pre-compiled package as below. Please make sure Prerequisites, ROCm stack, rocblas and rocm-smi-lib64 are already installed

Ubuntu : sudo apt install rocm-validation-suite
CentOS & RHEL : sudo yum install rocm-validation-suite
SUSE : sudo zypper install rocm-validation-suite

Running RVS#

Running version built from source code:#

cd ./build/bin
sudo ./rvs -d 3
sudo ./rvsqa.new.sh ; It will run complete rvs test suite

Running version pre-complied and packaged with ROCm release#

sudo /opt/rocm/rvs/rvs -d 3

Similarly, you can run all tests as mentioned in “rvsqa.new.sh” script, present at “testscripts/rvsqa.new.sh”

Regression#

Simple regression has been implemented. You may find more about it on this link.

Reporting#

Test based reporting is enabled since beginning. Added json based reporting to gst and iet modules. To enable json logging use “-j” command line option. ./rvs -c conf/gst_sinle.conf -d 3 -j the json location will be in /var/log folder and the name of the file will be printed in the stdout. output structure is as shown below:

{
{"module-name":{
  "action-name":[

{
    "target" : "<flops/power>"
  },
{
    "dtype" : "optype"
  },
{
    "gpu_id" : "63217",
    "GFLOPS" : "11433.352136"
  },
{
    "gpu_id" : "63217",
    "GFLOPS" : "11436.291718"
  },
....]
} 
}
....
}

example for gst is:

{"gst":{
  "gpustress-9000-sgemm-false":[

{
    "target" : "9000.000000"
  },
{
    "dtype" : "sgemm"
  },
{
    "gpu_id" : "63217",
    "GFLOPS" : "11433.352136"
  },
{
    "gpu_id" : "63217",
    "GFLOPS" : "11436.291718"
  }]
  }
  }
  {"gst":{
  "gpustress-8000-sgemm-true":[
,
{
    "target" : "8000.000000"
  },
{
    "dtype" : "sgemm"
  },
{
    "gpu_id" : "63217",
    "GFLOPS" : "11657.886019"
  },
{
    "gpu_id" : "63217",
    "GFLOPS" : "11675.718793"
  },
{
    "gpu_id" : "63217",
    "GFLOPS" : "11687.461158"
  } ]
  }
 }
}
