ROCprofiler-SDK installation#

This document provides information required to install ROCprofiler-SDK from source.

Supported systems#

ROCprofiler-SDK is supported only on Linux. The following distributions are tested:

  • Ubuntu 20.04

  • Ubuntu 22.04

  • OpenSUSE 15.4

  • RedHat 8.8

ROCprofiler-SDK might operate as expected on other Linux distributions, but has not been tested.

Identifying the operating system#

To identify the Linux distribution and version, see the /etc/os-release and /usr/lib/os-release files:

$ cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="20.04.4 LTS (Focal Fossa)"
ID=ubuntu
...
VERSION_ID="20.04"
...

The relevant fields are ID and the VERSION_ID.

Build requirements#

Install CMake version 3.21 (or later).

Note

If the CMake installed on the system is too old, you can install a new version using various methods. One of the easiest options is to use PyPi (Python’s pip).

pip install --user 'cmake==3.22.0'
export PATH=${HOME}/.local/bin:${PATH}
