MIOpen: MIOpen-HIP (for the HIP version), MIOpen-OpenCL (for the OpenCL version) MIOpenGEMM: miopengemm. MIVisionX: mivisionx. To make it easier to install ROCm, the AMD binary repositories provide a number of meta-packages that will automatically install multiple other packages. The OpenCL ICD (Installable Client Driver, the OpenCL.dll shipped with the graphics driver) tries to load all OpenCL implementations described in the HKEYLOCALMACHINE SOFTWARE Khronos OpenCL Vendors key (64-bit app on Win64 or 32-bit app on WIn32) of the registry.
Getting The Optimum Mining Performance on AMD GPUs
12, Mar 2015If you are using AMD Radeon-based video cards for mining crypto currencies you have probably noticed that some algorithms have issues with various video driver versions or the performance you get may differ between older and newer version. Since the AMD miners use OpenCL there is an easy solution that can help you deal with driver version issues and to get the optimum hashrate for a specific algorithm. There is not need to reinstall the complete video driver, you can just copy the OpenCL DLLs from the respective driver version inside the same folder where the software miner is (cgminer or sgminer) and when you run the miner it will load the different OpenCL version, regardless of what video driver you have installed. Do note that you need to delete the compiled kernel BIN file for the respective algorithm or algorithms when replacing the OpenCL DDL files in order to get the kernel recompiled with the different version. You can download the different AMD Radeon drivers OpenCL version 13.12, 14.4, 14.6 RC2, 14.8, 14.9 and 14.12 in a single package from the link below and try out what performance you will get by replacing the DLL files inside the miner software’s folder.

Machine Learning and High Performance Computing Software Stack for AMD GPU v4.1¶
ROCm Binary Package Structure¶
ROCm is a collection of software ranging from drivers and runtimes to libraries and developer tools. In AMD’s package distributions, these software projects are provided as a separate packages. This allows users to install only the packages they need, if they do not wish to install all of ROCm. These packages will install most of the ROCm software into /opt/rocm/
by default.
The packages for each of the major ROCm components are:
ROCm Core Components¶
ROCk Kernel Driver:
rock-dkmsrock-dkms-firmware

To make it easier to install ROCm, the AMD binary repositories provide a number of meta-packages that will automatically install multiple other packages. For example, rocm-dkms
is the primary meta-package that is used to install most of the base technology needed for ROCm to operate. It will install the rock-dkms
kernel driver, and another meta-package (rocm-dev
) which installs most of the user-land ROCm core components, support software, and development tools.
The rocm-utils meta-package will install useful utilities that, while not required for ROCm to operate, may still be beneficial to have. Finally, the rocm-libs meta-package will install some (but not all) of the libraries that are part of ROCm.
The chain of software installed by these meta-packages is illustrated below:
These meta-packages are not required but may be useful to make it easier to install ROCm on most systems.
Note: Some users may want to skip certain packages. For instance, a user that wants to use the upstream kernel drivers (rather than those supplied by AMD) may want to skip the rocm-dkms and rock-dkms packages. Instead, they could directly install rocm-dev.
Similarly, a user that only wants to install OpenCL support instead of HCC and HIP may want to skip the rocm-dkms and rocm-dev packages. Instead, they could directly install rock-dkms, rocm-opencl, and rocm-opencl-dev and their dependencies.
ROCm Platform Packages¶
The following platform packages are for ROCm v4.1.0:
