ROCm Compute Profiler has the following enhancements:
* Single‑Pass Counter Collection feature has been added. It allows profiling kernels in a single pass using a predefined metric set, reducing profiling overhead and session time.
* Dynamic Attach/Detach feature has been added. It allows starting or stopping profiling on a running application without restarting, enabling flexible analysis for long‑running jobs.
* Live Attach/Detach feature has been added. It allows starting or stopping profiling on a running application without restarting, enabling flexible analysis for long‑running jobs.
* Enhanced TUI Experience feature has been added. It allows for interactive exploration of metrics with descriptions and view high‑level compute and memory throughput panels for quick insights.
### ROCm Systems Profiler updates
@@ -266,6 +266,17 @@ ROCm Systems Profiler has the following enhancements:
* Transitioned to using AMD SMI by default, instead of ROCm SMI.
* Integrated with ROCm Profiling Data (rocpd), enabling profiling results to be stored in a SQLite3 database. This provides a structured and efficient foundation for in-depth analysis and post-processing.
### ROCprofiler-SDK updates
ROCprofiler-SDK and `rocprofv3` include the following enhancements:
* Dynamic process attachment feature has been added. This feature in ROCprofiler-SDK and `rocprofv3` allows dynamic profiling of a running GPU application by attaching to its process ID (PID), rather than launching the application through the profiler itself. This allows real-time data collection without interrupting execution, making it ideal for profiling long-running, containerized, or multiprocess workloads. For more details, refer to [Dynamic process attachment](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocprofiler-sdk/en/latest/how-to/using-rocprofv3-process-attachment.html) documentation for `rocprofv3` and [Implementing Process Attachment Tools](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocprofiler-sdk/en/latest/api-reference/process_attachment.html) for `ROCprofiler-SDK`.
* Scratch-memory trace information has been added to the Perfetto output in `rocprofv3`, enhancing visibility into memory usage during profiling. Additionally, derived metrics and the required counters have been successfully integrated for gfx12XX series GPUs, enabling users to collect performance counters through `rocprofv3` on these platforms.
* Host-trap (software-based) PC sampling is now available on RDNA4 architecture-based gfx12xx series GPUs. It uses the kernel threads to interrupt GPU waves and capture PC states. For more details, see [Using PC sampling](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocprofiler-sdk/en/latest/how-to/using-pc-sampling.html).
* Real-time clock support has been added to the thread trace in `rocprofv3` for thread trace alignment on gfx9xx GPUs, enabling high-resolution clock computation and better synchronization across shader engines.
* `MultiKernelDispatch` thread trace support is now available across all ASICs, allowing users to profile multiple kernel dispatches within a single thread trace session. This enhances the timeline accuracy and enables deeper analysis of concurrent GPU workloads.
* Stability and robustness of the `rocpd` output format for `rocprofv3` has been improved. For details, see [Using rocpd output format](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/rocprofiler-sdk/en/latest/how-to/using-rocpd-output-format.html).
