file rdc.h

#include <stdint.h>

The rocm_rdc library api is new, and therefore subject to change either at the ABI or API level. Instead of marking every function prototype as “unstable”, we are instead saying the API is unstable (i.e., changes are possible) while the major version remains 0. This means that if the API/ABI changes, we will not increment the major version to 1. Once the ABI stabilizes, we will increment the major version to 1, and thereafter increment it on all ABI breaks.

Parameters:

p_rdc_handle – [in] The RDC handler.
gpu_index – [in] The GPU index.
field – [in] The field id
value – [out] The field value got from cache.

Return values:

Stop record updates for a given field collection.

The cache of those fields will not be updated after this call

Parameters:

p_rdc_handle – [in] The RDC handler.
group_id – [in] The GPU group id.
field_group_id – [in] The field group id.

Return values:

RDC_ST_OK – is returned upon successful call.
