Description arfiedler1114 2023-08-06 15:23:57 UTC
Hi! I was trying to get blender working on my system, and i noticed it keeps segfaulting. Looking into the forums for similar issues, it looks like its fixed in later versions of amd rocm, so i was wondering if someone would be able to update the versions of rocblas and its supporting packages, and possibly add a 9999 atom so that this issue would not be present in later versions. Thank you!

The title is requesting updates for rocBLAS, while as I understand blender does not rely on rocBLAS. I think you mean dev-util/hip?

In the blender docs, it lists rocm as a dependancy for hip rendering.

There were efforts about enabling rocm in blender:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/693200 and https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/27552

There are some minor issues at that time, and since I'm not using blender much, that effort was halted. But maybe these information are helpful.
