-## Are You Ready to ROCK!
-The ROCm Platform delivers on the vision of the  Boltzmann Initiative, bringing
-new opportunities in GPU Computing Research.
+## Are You Ready to ROCK?
+The ROCm Platform brings a rich foundation to advanced computing by seamlessly
+ integrating the CPU and GPU with the goal of solving real-world problems.
 
-On November 16th, 2015, the Radeon Technology Group rolled out Boltzmann
-Initiative with three core foundation elements:
+#### Supported CPUs
 
-* New Linux(R) Driver and Runtime Stack optimized for HPC & Ultra-scale class
-  computing,
-* Heterogeneous C and C++ compiler which best address the whole system not just
-  a single device
-* HIP acknowledging the need for platform choice when utilizing GPU computing
-  API
+Starting with ROCm 1.8, we have relaxed the requirements for PCIe Atomics on Vega 10 (GFX9) GPUs, and we have similarly opened up more options for number of PCIe lanes. With this release, these GFX9 GPUs can support CPUs without PCIe Atomics and, for example, run on PCIe  Gen2 x1 lanes. To enable this option, please set the environment variable `HSA_ENABLE_SDMA=0`.
 
-Using our knowledge of the HSA Standards and, more importantly, the HSA 1.1
-Runtime we have been able to successfully extended support to the dGPU with
-critical features for NUMA class acceleration. As a result, the ROCK driver is
-composed of several components based on our efforts to develop the
-Heterogeneous System Architecture for APUs, including the new AMDGPU driver,
-the Kernel Fusion Driver (KFD), the HSA+ Runtime and an LLVM based compilation
-stack for the building of key language support. This support starts with AMD’s
-FIJI Family of dGPU, but support is planned to expand to include future ASICS.
+Currently, our GFX8 GPUs (Fiji & Polaris family) still need to use PCIe Gen 3 and PCIe Atomics, but are looking at relaxing this in a future release, once we have fully tested firmware.
+
+Current CPUs which support PCIe Gen3 + PCIe Atomics are: 
+  * AMD Ryzen CPUs;
+  * AMD EPYC CPUs;  
+  * Intel Xeon E7 V3  or newer CPUs;
+  * Intel Xeon E5 v3 or newer CPUs; 
+  * Intel Xeon E3 v3 or newer CPUs;
+  * Intel Core i7 v4, Core i5 v4, Core i3 v4 or newer CPUs (i.e. Haswell family or newer).
+
+For Fiji and Polaris GPUs, the ROCm platform leverages PCIe Atomics (Fetch and Add, Compare and Swap, 
+Unconditional Swap, AtomicsOp Completion).
+PCIe Atomics are only supported on PCIe Gen3 enabled CPUs and PCIe Gen3 switches like
+Broadcom PLX. When you install your GPUs, make sure you install them in a fully
+PCIe Gen3 x16 or x8, x4 or x1  slot attached either directly to the CPU's Root I/O 
+controller or via a PCIe switch directly attached to the CPU's Root I/O 
+controller. In our experience, many issues stem from trying to use consumer 
+motherboards which provide physical x16 connectors that are electrically 
+connected as e.g. PCIe Gen2 x4, PCIe slots connected via the 
+Southbridge PCIe I/O controller, or PCIe slots connected through a PCIe switch that does
+not support PCIe atomics. 
+ 
+Experimental support for our Hawaii (GFX7) GPUs (Radeon R9 290, R9 390, FirePro W9100, S9150, S9170)
+does not require or take advantage of PCIe Atomics. However, we still recommend that you use a CPU
+from the list provided above for compatibility purposes.
+
+#### Not supported or very limited support under ROCm 
+###### Limited support 
+
+* ROCm 1.8 and Vega10 should support PCIe Gen2 enabled CPUs such as the AMD Opteron, Phenom, Phenom II, Athlon, Athlon X2, Athlon II and older Intel Xeon and Intel Core Architecture and Pentium CPUs. However, we have done very limited testing on these configurations, since our test farm has been catering to CPU listed above. This is where we need community support; if you find problems on such setups, please report these issues.
+ * Thunderbolt 1, 2, and 3 enabled breakout boxes should now be able to work with ROCm. Thunderbolt 1 and 2 are PCIe Gen2 based, and thus are only supported with GPUs that do not require PCIe Gen 3 atomics (i.e. Vega 10). However, we have done no testing on this configuration and would need comunity support due to limited access to this type of equipment 
+
+###### Not supported 
+
+* We do not support GFX8-class GPUs (Fiji, Polaris, etc.) on CPUs that do not have PCIe Gen 3 with PCIe atomics.
+  * As such, do not support AMD Carrizo and Kaveri APUs as hosts for such GPUs..
+  * Thunderbolt 1 and 2 enabled GPUs are not supported by GFX8 GPUs on ROCm. Thunderbolt 1 & 2 are PCIe Gen2 based.
+* AMD Carrizo based APUs have limited support due to OEM & ODM's choices when it comes to some key configuration parameters. In particular, we have observed that Carrizo laptops, AIOs, and desktop systems showed inconsistencies in exposing and enabling the System BIOS parameters required by the ROCm stack. Before purchasing a Carrizo system for ROCm, please verify that the BIOS provides an option for enabling IOMMUv2 and that the system BIOS properly exposes the correct CRAT table - please inquire with the OEM about the latter.
+ * AMD Merlin/Falcon Embedded System is not currently supported by the public repo.
+ * AMD Raven Ridge APU are currently not supported
+
+### New features to ROCm 1.8.3
+
+* ROCm 1.8.3 is a minor update meant to fix compatibility issues on Ubuntu releases running kernel 4.15.0-33
+
+### New features as of ROCm 1.8.2

-#### Debian repository - apt-get
+### Installing from AMD ROCm repositories
+
+AMD is hosting both Debian and RPM repositories for the ROCm 1.8.3 packages at this time.
+
+The packages in the Debian repository have been signed to ensure package integrity.
+
+#### Installing from a Debian repository
+
+##### First make sure your system is up to date 
+
+```shell
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt dist-upgrade
+sudo apt install libnuma-dev
+sudo reboot
+```
 
 ##### Add the ROCm apt repository
+
 For Debian based systems, like Ubuntu, configure the Debian ROCm repository as
 follows:
 
 ```shell
-wget -qO - http://packages.amd.com/rocm/apt/debian/rocm.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
-sudo sh -c 'echo deb [arch=amd64] http://packages.amd.com/rocm/apt/debian/ trusty main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rocm.list'
+wget -qO - http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/apt/debian/rocm.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
+echo 'deb [arch=amd64] http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/apt/debian/ xenial main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rocm.list
 ```
+The gpg key might change, so it may need to be updated when installing a new release. 
+If the key signature verification is failed while update, please re-add the key from 
+ROCm apt repository. The current rocm.gpg.key is not avialable in a standard key ring 
+distribution, but has the following sha1sum hash:
 
-##### Install or Update
-Next, update the apt-get repository list and install/update the rocm package:
+f7f8147431c75e505c58a6f3a3548510869357a6  rocm.gpg.key
+
+##### Install
+
+Next, update the apt repository list and install the rocm package:
 
 >**Warning**: Before proceeding, make sure to completely
->[uninstall any pre-release ROCm packages](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm#removing-pre-release-packages):
+>[uninstall any previous ROCm package](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm#removing-pre-release-packages):
 
 ```shell
-sudo apt-get update
-sudo apt-get install rocm
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt install rocm-dkms
 ```
-Then, make the ROCm kernel your default kernel. If using grub2 as your
-bootloader, you can edit the `GRUB_DEFAULT` variable in the following file:
+
+###### Next set your permissions 
+
+With move to upstreaming the KFD driver and the support of DKMS,  for all Console aka headless user, you will need to add all  your users to the  'video" group by setting the Unix permissions
+
+Configure 
+Ensure that your user account is a member of the "video" group prior to using the ROCm driver. You can find which groups you are a member of with the following command:
 
 ```shell
-sudo vi /etc/default/grub
-sudo update-grub
+groups
+```
+
+To add yourself to the video group you will need the sudo password and can use the following command:
+
+```shell
+sudo usermod -a -G video $LOGNAME 
+``` 
+
+You may want to ensure that any future users you add to your system are put into the "video" group by default. To do that, you can run the following commands:
+```shell
+echo 'ADD_EXTRA_GROUPS=1' | sudo tee -a /etc/adduser.conf
+echo 'EXTRA_GROUPS=video' | sudo tee -a /etc/adduser.conf
 ```
 
 Once complete, reboot your system.
 
-We recommend you [verify your installation](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm#verify-installation) to make sure everything completed successfully.
+Upon Reboot run the following commands to verify that the ROCm installation waas successful. If you see your GPUs listed by both of these commands, you should be ready to go!
+```shell
+/opt/rocm/bin/rocminfo 
+/opt/rocm/opencl/bin/x86_64/clinfo 
+``` 
 
-##### Un-install
-To un-install the entire rocm-dev development package execute:
+Note that, to make running ROCm programs easier, you may wish to put the ROCm libraries in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable and the ROCm binaries in your PATH.
+```shell
+echo 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/rocm/opencl/lib/x86_64:/opt/rocm/hsa/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH' | sudo tee -a /etc/profile.d/rocm.sh
+echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/opt/rocm/bin:/opt/rocm/profiler/bin:/opt/rocm/opencl/bin/x86_64' | sudo tee -a /etc/profile.d/rocm.sh
+```
+
+If you have an [Install Issue](https://rocm.github.io/install_issues.html) please read this FAQ .
+
+###### Vega10 users who want to run ROCm on a system that does not support PCIe atomics must set HSA_ENABLE_SDMA=0
+
+Currently, if you want to run ROCm on a Vega10 GPU (GFX9) on a system without PCIe atomics, you must turn off SDMA functionality.
 
 ```shell
-sudo apt-get autoremove rocm
+export HSA_ENABLE_SDMA=0
+```
+
+###### Performing an OpenCL-only Installation of ROCm
+
+Some users may want to install a subset of the full ROCm installation. In particular, if you are trying to install on a system with a limited amount of storage space, or which will only run a small collection of known applications, you may want to install only the packages that are required to run OpenCL applications. To do that, you can run the following installation command **instead** of the command to install `rocm-dkms`.
+
+```shell
+sudo apt-get install dkms rock-dkms rocm-opencl
+```
+
+###### Upon restart, to test your OpenCL instance 
+
+Build and run Hello World OCL app.
+
+HelloWorld sample:
+
+```shell
+ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bgaster/opencl-book-samples/master/src/Chapter_2/HelloWorld/HelloWorld.cpp
+ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bgaster/opencl-book-samples/master/src/Chapter_2/HelloWorld/HelloWorld.cl
+```
+
+ Build it using the default ROCm OpenCL include and library locations:
+
+```shell
+g++ -I /opt/rocm/opencl/include/ ./HelloWorld.cpp -o HelloWorld -L/opt/rocm/opencl/lib/x86_64 -lOpenCL
+```
+
+ Run it:
+
+ ```shell
+ ./HelloWorld
+```
+
+##### How to un-install from Ubuntu 16.04
+
+To un-install the entire rocm development package execute:
+
+```shell
+sudo apt autoremove rocm-dkms
 ```
 
 ##### Installing development packages for cross compilation
+
 It is often useful to develop and test on different systems. In this scenario,
 you may prefer to avoid installing the ROCm Kernel to your development system.
 
 In this case, install the development subset of packages:
 
 ```shell
-sudo apt-get update
-sudo apt-get install rocm-dev
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt install rocm-dev
 ```
 
 >**Note:** To execute ROCm enabled apps you will require a system with the full
 >ROCm driver stack installed
 
 ##### Removing pre-release packages
+
 If you installed any of the ROCm pre-release packages from github, they will
 need to be manually un-installed:
 
 ```shell
-sudo apt-get purge libhsakmt
-sudo apt-get purge radeon-firmware
-sudo apt-get purge $(dpkg -l | grep 'kfd\|rocm' | grep linux | grep -v libc | awk '{print $2}')
+sudo apt purge hsakmt-roct
+sudo apt purge hsakmt-roct-dev
+sudo apt purge compute-firmware
+sudo apt purge $(dpkg -l | grep 'kfd\|rocm' | grep linux | grep -v libc | awk '{print $2}')
 ```
 
 If possible, we would recommend starting with a fresh OS install.
 
-#### RPM repository - dnf (yum)
+### CentOS/RHEL 7 (both 7.4 and 7.5) Support
 
-A dnf (yum) repostiory is also available for installation of rpm packages. To configure a
-system to use the ROCm rpm directory create the file /etc/yum.repos.d/rocm.repo with
-the following contents:
+Support for CentOS/RHEL 7 has been added in ROCm 1.8, but requires a special 
+runtime environment provided by the RHEL Software Collections and additional
+dkms support packages to properly install in run.
+
+#### Preparing RHEL 7 for installation
+
+RHEL is a subscription based operating system, and must enable several external
+repositories to enable installation of the devtoolset-7 environment and the DKMS
+support files. These steps are not required for CentOS.
+
+First, the subscription for RHEL must be enabled and attached to a pool id. Please
+see Obtaining an RHEL image and license page for instructions on registering your
+system with the RHEL subscription server and attaching to a pool id.
+
+
+Second, enable the following repositories:
 
 ```shell
-[remote]
+sudo subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpms
+sudo subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
+sudo subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-extras-rpms
+```
 
-name=ROCm Repo
+Third, enable additional repositories by downloading and installing the epel-release-latest-7 repository RPM:
 
-baseurl=http://packages.amd.com/rocm/yum/rpm/
+```shell
+sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
+```
 
+#### Install and setup Devtoolset-7
+
+To setup the Devtoolset-7 environment, follow the instructions on this page:
+
+https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/devtoolset-7/
+
+Note that devtoolset-7 is a Software Collections package, and is not supported by AMD.
+
+#### Prepare CentOS/RHEL 7.4 or 7.5 for DKMS Install
+
+Installing kernel drivers on CentOS/RHEL 7.4/7.5 requires dkms tool being installed:
+
+```shell
+sudo yum install -y epel-release
+sudo yum install -y dkms kernel-headers-`uname -r`
+```
+
+
+At this point they system can install ROCm using the DKMS drivers.
+
+Installing ROCm on the system
+At this point ROCm can be installed on the target system. Create a /etc/yum.repos.d/rocm.repo file with the following contents:
+
+```shell
+[ROCm]
+name=ROCm
+baseurl=http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/yum/rpm
 enabled=1
-
 gpgcheck=0
 ```
-Execute the following commands:
+
+The repo's URL should point to the location of the repositories repodata database. Install ROCm components using these commands:
 
 ```shell
-sudo dnf clean all
-sudo dnf install rocm
+sudo yum install rocm-dkms
 ```
 
-As with the debian packages, it is possible to install rocm-dev or rocm-kernel individually.
-To uninstall the packages execute:
+The rock-dkms component should be installed and the /dev/kfd device should be available on reboot.
+
+Ensure that your user account is a member of the "video" or "wheel" group prior to using the ROCm driver.
+You can find which groups you are a member of with the following command:
 
 ```shell
-sudo dnf remove rocm
+groups
 ```
 
-#### Verify Installation
-
-To verify that the ROCm stack completed successfully you can execute to HSA
-vectory\_copy sample application:
+To add yourself to the video (or wheel) group you will need the sudo password and can use the
+following command:
 
 ```shell
-cd /opt/rocm/hsa/sample
-make
-./vector_copy
+sudo usermod -a -G video $LOGNAME 
 ```
 
-#### Closed Source Components
+Current release supports up to CentOS/RHEL 7.4 and 7.5. Users should update to the latest version of the OS:
+
+```shell
+sudo yum update
+```
+###### Vega10 users who want to run ROCm on a system that does not support PCIe atomics must set HSA_ENABLE_SDMA=0
+
+Currently, if you want to run ROCm on a Vega10 GPU (GFX9) on a system without PCIe atomics, you must turn off SDMA functionality.
+
+```shell
+export HSA_ENABLE_SDMA=0
+```
+
+#### Compiling applications using hcc, hip, etc.
+
+To compile applications or samples, please use gcc-7.2 provided by the devtoolset-7 environment.
+To do this, compile all applications after running this command: 
+
+```shell
+scl enable devtoolset-7 bash
+```
+#### How to un-install ROCm from CentOS/RHEL 7.4
+
+To un-install the entire rocm development package execute:
+
+```shell
+sudo yum autoremove rocm-dkms
+```
+
+#### Known Issues / Workarounds
+
+##### If you Plan to Run with X11 - we are seeing X freezes under load
+
+In ROCm 1.8.3, the kernel parameter 'noretry' has been set to 1 to improve overall system performance. However it has been proven to bring instability to graphics driver shipped with Ubuntu. This is an ongoing issue and we are looking into it.
+
+Before that, please try apply this change by changing noretry bit to 0.
+
+```shell
+echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/module/amdkfd/parameters/noretry
+```
+
+Files under /sys won't be preserved after reboot so you'll need to do it every time.
+
+One way to keep noretry=0 is to change /etc/modprobe.d/amdkfd.conf and make it be:
+
+options amdkfd noretry=0
+
+Once it's done, run sudo update-initramfs -u. Reboot and verify /sys/module/amdkfd/parameters/noretry stays as 0.
