ROCProfilerV1 API

ROCProfiler API Specification

Introduction

ROCProfiler library, GPU Applications Profiling/Tracing APIs. The API provides functionality for profiling GPU applications in kernel and application and user mode and also with no replay mode at all and it provides the records pool support with an easy sequence of calls, so the user can be able to profile and trace in easy small steps, our samples code can give good examples of how to use the API calls for both profiling and tracing
