Full documentation for ROCm Systems Profiler is available at https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocprofiler-systems/en/latest/.
- Profiling and metric collection capabilities for VCN engine activity, JPEG engine activity, and API tracing for rocDecode, rocJPEG, and VA-APIs.
- How-to document for VCN and JPEG activity sampling and tracing.
- Support for tracing Fortran applications.
- Support for tracing MPI API in Fortran.
- Initial support for rocPD database output with the
ROCPROFSYS_USE_ROCPDconfiguration setting. - By default, group "kernel dispatch" and "memory copy" events by HIP stream ID in Perfetto traces.
- Add the "ROCPROFSYS_ROCM_GROUP_BY_QUEUE" configuration setting to group events by queue, instead.
- Replaced ROCm SMI backend with AMD SMI backend for collecting GPU metrics.
- ROCprofiler-SDK is now used to trace RCCL API and collect communication counters.
- Updated the Dyninst submodule to v13.0.
- Set the default value of
ROCPROFSYS_SAMPLING_CPUStonone.
- Fixed GPU metric collection settings with
ROCPROFSYS_AMD_SMI_METRICS. - Fixed a build issue with CMake 4.
- Fixed incorrect kernel names shown for kernel dispatch tracks in Perfetto.
- Fixed formatting of some output logs.
- Fixed an issue where ROC-TX ranges were displayed as two separate events instead of a single spanning event.
- Improved readability of the OpenMP target offload traces by showing on a single Perfetto track.
- Fixed the file path to the script that merges Perfetto files from multi-process MPI runs. The script has also been renamed from
merge-multiprocess-output.shtorocprof-sys-merge-output.sh.
- How-to document for network performance profiling for standard Network Interface Cards (NICs).
- Fixed a build issue with Dyninst on GCC 13.
-
Support for VA-API and rocDecode tracing.
-
Aggregation of MPI data collected across distributed nodes and ranks. The data is concatenated into a single proto file.
- Backend refactored to use ROCprofiler-SDK rather than ROCProfiler and ROCTracer.
-
Fixed hardware counter summary files not being generated after profiling.
-
Fixed an application crash when collecting performance counters with ROCProfiler.
-
Fixed interruption in config file generation.
-
Fixed segmentation fault while running
rocprof-sys-instrument. -
Fixed an issue where running
rocprof-sys-causalor using the-I alloption withrocprof-sys-samplecaused the system to become non-responsive. -
Fixed an issue where sampling multi-GPU Python workloads caused the system to stop responding.
- Fixed an error when building from source on some SUSE and RHEL systems when using the
ROCPROFSYS_BUILD_DYNINSToption.
- Improvements to support OMPT target offload.
-
Fixed an issue with generated Perfetto files.
-
Fixed an issue with merging multiple
.protofiles. -
Fixed an issue causing GPU resource data to be missing from traces of Instinct MI300A systems.
-
Fixed a minor issue for users upgrading to ROCm 6.3 from 6.2 post-rename from
omnitrace.
- Renamed Omnitrace to ROCm Systems Profiler.
- Perfetto can no longer open Omnitrace proto files. Loading the Perfetto trace output
.protofile inui.perfetto.devcan result in a dialog with the message, "Oops, something went wrong! Please file a bug." The information in the dialog will refer to an "Unknown field type." The workaround is to open the files with the previous version of the Perfetto UI found at https://ui.perfetto.dev/v46.0-35b3d9845/#!/.
