### What's New in This Release
#### HIP SDK for Windows
AMD is pleased to announce the availability of the HIP SDK for Windows as part
of the ROCm platform. The
[HIP SDK OS and GPU support page](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/en/docs-5.5.1/release/windows_support.html)
lists the versions of Windows and GPUs validated by AMD. HIP SDK features on
Windows are described in detail in our

> There will be a transition period where the Perl scripts and compiled binaries are available before the scripts are removed. There will be no functional difference between the Perl scripts and their compiled binary counterpart. No user action is required. Once these are available, users can optionally switch to `hipcc.bin` and `hipconfig.bin`. The `hipcc`/`hipconfig` soft link will be assimilated to point from `hipcc`/`hipconfig` to the respective compiled binaries as the default option.

##### Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard for ROCm
ROCm packages have adopted the Linux foundation filesystem hierarchy standard in this release to ensure ROCm components follow open source conventions for Linux-based distributions. While moving to a new filesystem hierarchy, ROCm ensures backward compatibility with its 5.1 version or older filesystem hierarchy. See below for a detailed explanation of the new filesystem hierarchy and backward compatibility.
