+### Hardware Support
+ROCm is focused on using AMD GPUs to accelerate computational tasks such as machine learning, engineering workloads, and scientific computing.
+In order to focus our development efforts on these domains of interest, ROCm supports a targeted set of hardware configurations which are detailed further in this section.
+
+#### Supported GPUs
+Because the ROCm Platform has a focus on particular computational domains, we offer official support for a selection of AMD GPUs that are designed to offer good performance and price in these domains.
+
+ROCm officially supports AMD GPUs that use following chips:
+
+  * GFX8 GPUs
+    * "Fiji" chips, such as on the AMD Radeon R9 Fury X and Radeon Instinct MI8
+    * "Polaris 10" chips, such as on the AMD Radeon RX 580 and Radeon Instinct MI6
+    * "Polaris 11" chips, such as on the AMD Radeon RX 570 and Radeon Pro WX 4100
+    * "Polaris 12" chips, such as on the AMD Radeon RX 550 and Radeon RX 540
+  * GFX9 GPUs
+    * "Vega 10" chips, such as on the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 and Radeon Instinct MI25
+    * "Vega 7nm" chips
+
+ROCm is a collection of software ranging from drivers and runtimes to libraries and developer tools.
+Some of this software may work with more GPUs than the "officially supported" list above, though AMD does not make any official claims of support for these devices on the ROCm software platform.
+The following list of GPUs are enabled in the ROCm software, though full support is not guaranteed:
+
+  * GFX7 GPUs
+    * "Hawaii" chips, such as the AMD Radeon R9 390X and FirePro W9100
+
+As described in the next section, GFX8 GPUs require PCI Express 3.0 (PCIe 3.0) with support for PCIe atomics. This requires both CPU and motherboard support. GFX9 GPUs, by default, also require PCIe 3.0 with support for PCIe atomics, but they can operate in most cases without this capability.
+
+At this time, the integrated GPUs in AMD APUs are not officially supported targets for ROCm.
+As descried [below](#limited-support), "Carrizo", "Bristol Ridge", and "Raven Ridge" APUs are enabled in our upstream drivers and the ROCm OpenCL runtime.
+However, they are not enabled in our HCC or HIP runtimes, and may not work due to motherboard or OEM hardware limitations.
+As such, they are not yet officially supported targets for ROCm.
+
+For a more detailed list of hardware support, please see [the following documentation](https://rocm.github.io/hardware.html).
+
+#### Supported CPUs
+As described above, GFX8 GPUs require PCIe 3.0 with PCIe atomics in order to run ROCm.
+In particular, the CPU and every active PCIe point between the CPU and GPU require support for PCIe 3.0 and PCIe atomics.
+The CPU root must indicate PCIe AtomicOp Completion capabilities and any intermediate switch must indicate PCIe AtomicOp Routing capabilities.
+
+Current CPUs which support PCIe Gen3 + PCIe Atomics are:
+
+  * AMD Ryzen CPUs;
+  * The CPUs in AMD Ryzen APUs;
+  * AMD Ryzen Threadripper 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).
+  * Some Ivy Bridge-E systems
+
+Beginning with ROCm 1.8, GFX9 GPUs (such as Vega 10) no longer require PCIe atomics.
+We have similarly opened up more options for number of PCIe lanes.
+GFX9 GPUs can now be run on CPUs without PCIe atomics and on older PCIe generations, such as PCIe 2.0.
+This is not supported on GPUs below GFX9, e.g. GFX8 cards in the Fiji and Polaris families.
+
+If you are using any PCIe switches in your system, please note that PCIe Atomics are only supported on some switches, such as Broadcom PLX.
+When you install your GPUs, make sure you install them in a PCIe 3.0 x16, 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 2.0 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.
+
+If you attempt to run ROCm on a system without proper PCIe atomic support, you may see an error in the kernel log (`dmesg`):
+```
+kfd: skipped device 1002:7300, PCI rejects 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 limited support under ROCm 
+##### Limited support 
+
+* ROCm 2.0.x should support PCIe 2.0 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 CPUs 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 2.0 based, and thus are only supported with GPUs that do not require PCIe 3.0 atomics (e.g. Vega 10). However, we have done no testing on this configuration and would need community support due to limited access to this type of equipment.
+* AMD "Carrizo" and "Bristol Ridge" APUs are enabled to run OpenCL, but do not yet support HCC, HIP, or our libraries built on top of these compilers and runtimes.
+  * As of ROCm 2.0, "Carrizo" and "Bristol Ridge" require the use of upstream kernel drivers.
+  * In addition, various "Carrizo" and "Bristol Ridge" platforms may not work due to OEM and ODM choices when it comes to key configurations parameters such as inclusion of the required CRAT tables and IOMMU configuration parameters in the system BIOS.
+  * Before purchasing such a 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. Inquire with your vendor about the latter.
+* AMD "Raven Ridge" APUs are enabled to run OpenCL, but do not yet support HCC, HIP, or our libraries built on top of these compilers and runtimes.
+  * As of ROCm 2.0, "Raven Ridge" requires the use of upstream kernel drivers.
+  * In addition, various "Raven Ridge" platforms may not work due to OEM and ODM choices when it comes to key configurations parameters such as inclusion of the required CRAT tables and IOMMU configuration parameters in the system BIOS.
+  * Before purchasing such a 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. Inquire with your vendor about the latter.
+  
+##### Not supported 
+
+* "Tonga", "Iceland", "Vega M", and "Vega 12" GPUs are not supported in ROCm 2.0.x
+* We do not support GFX8-class GPUs (Fiji, Polaris, etc.) on CPUs that do not have PCIe 3.0 with PCIe atomics.
+  * As such, we 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 based on PCIe 2.0.
+
+### New features and enhancements in ROCm 2.0
+
+Features and enhancements introduced in previous versions of ROCm can be found in [version_history.md](version_history.md)

+
+#### Improvements to ROCProfiler tool
+* Support for Vega 7nm
+
+#### Support for hipStreamCreateWithPriority
+* Creates a stream with the specified priority. It creates a stream on which enqueued kernels have a different priority for execution compared to kernels enqueued on normal priority streams. The priority could be higher or lower than normal priority streams.
+
+#### OpenCL 2.0 support
+* ROCm 2.0 introduces full support for kernels written in the OpenCL 2.0 C language on certain devices and systems.  Applications can detect this support by calling the “clGetDeviceInfo” query function with “parame_name” argument set to “CL_DEVICE_OPENCL_C_VERSION”.  In order to make use of OpenCL 2.0 C language features, the application must include the option “-cl-std=CL2.0” in options passed to the runtime API calls responsible for compiling or building device programs.  The complete specification for the OpenCL 2.0 C language can be obtained using the following link: https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/specs/opencl-2.0-openclc.pdf 
+
+#### Improved Virtual Addressing (48-bit VA) management for Vega 10 and later GPUs
+* Fixes Clang AddressSanitizer and potentially other 3rd-party memory debugging tools with ROCm
+* Small performance improvement on workloads that do a lot of memory management
+* Removes virtual address space limitations on systems with more VRAM than system memory
+
+#### Kubernetes support

+#### Supported Operating Systems - New operating systems available
+
+The ROCm 2.0.x platform supports the following operating systems:
+
+ * Ubuntu 16.04.x and 18.04.x (Version 16.04.3 and newer or kernels 4.13 and newer)
+ * CentOS 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 (Using devtoolset-7 runtime support)
+ * RHEL 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 (Using devtoolset-7 runtime support)
+
+#### ROCm support in upstream Linux kernels
+
+As of ROCm 1.9.0, the ROCm user-level software is compatible with the AMD drivers in certain upstream Linux kernels.
+As such, users have the option of either using the ROCK kernel driver that are part of AMD's ROCm repositories or using the upstream driver and only installing ROCm user-level utilities from AMD's ROCm repositories.
+
+These releases of the upstream Linux kernel support the following GPUs in ROCm:
+ * 4.17: Fiji, Polaris 10, Polaris 11
+ * 4.18: Fiji, Polaris 10, Polaris 11, Vega10
+
+The upstream driver may be useful for running ROCm software on systems that are not compatible with the kernel driver available in AMD's repositories.
+For users that have the option of using either AMD's or the upstreamed driver, there are various tradeoffs to take into consideration:
+
+|   | Using AMD's `rock-dkms` package | Using the upstream kernel driver |
+| ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------| ----- |
+| Pros | More GPU features, and they are enabled earlier | Includes the latest Linux kernel features |
+|      | Tested by AMD on supported distributions | May work on other distributions and with custom kernels |
+|      | Supported GPUs enabled regardless of kernel version | |
+|      | Includes the latest GPU firmware | |
+| Cons | May not work on all Linux distributions or versions | Features and hardware support varies depending on kernel version |
+|      | Not currently supported on kernels newer than 4.18 | Limits GPU's usage of system memory to 3/8 of system memory |
+|      |   | IPC and RDMA capabilities are not yet enabled |
+|      |   | Not tested by AMD to the same level as `rock-dkms` package |
+|      |   | Does not include most up-to-date firmware |
 
 
-Using our knowledge of the HSA Standards and, more importantly, the HSA
-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, and has expanded to include the Hawaii dGPU Family  in
-ROCm 1.2.
+### Installing from AMD ROCm repositories
 
-### The Latest ROCm Platform - ROCm 1.2
-The latest tested version of the drivers, tools, libraries and source code for
-the ROCm platform have been released and are available under the roc-1.2.0 tag
-of the following GitHub repositories:
+AMD hosts both [Debian](http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/apt/debian/) and [RPM](http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/yum/rpm/) repositories for the ROCm 2.0.x packages at this time.
 
-* [ROCK-Kernel-Driver](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCK-Kernel-Driver/tree/roc-1.2.0)

-In addition the following mirror repositories that support the HCC compiler are
-also available on GitHub, and frozen for the roc-1.2.0 release:
+#### ROCm Binary Package Structure
 
-* [llvm](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/llvm/tree/roc-1.2.0)
-* [clang](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/clang/tree/roc-1.2.0)
+ROCm is a collection of software ranging from drivers and runtimes to libraries and developer tools.
+In AMD's package distributions, these software projects are provided as a separate packages.
+This allows users to install only the packages they need, if they do not wish to install all of ROCm.
+These packages will install most of the ROCm software into `/opt/rocm/` by default.
 
-### Installing from AMD ROCm Repositories
-AMD is hosting both debian and rpm repositories for the ROCm 1.2 packages. The
-packages in both repositories have been signed to ensure package integrity.
-Directions for each repository are given below:
+The packages for each of the major ROCm components are:
 
-#### Supported Operating Systems
+* ROCm Core Components
+  - ROCk Kernel Driver: `rock-dkms`
+  - ROCr Runtime: `hsa-rocr-dev`, `hsa-ext-rocr-dev`
+  - ROCt Thunk Interface: `hsakmt-roct`, `hsakmt-roct-dev`
+* ROCm Support Software
+  - ROCm SMI: `rocm-smi`
+  - ROCm cmake: `rocm-cmake`
+  - rocminfo: `rocminfo`
+  - ROCm Bandwidth Test: `rocm_bandwidth_test`
+* ROCm Development Tools
+  - HCC compiler: `hcc`
+  - HIP: `hip_base`, `hip_doc`, `hip_hcc`, `hip_samples`
+  - ROCm Device Libraries: `rocm-device-libs`
+  - ROCm OpenCL: `rocm-opencl`, `rocm-opencl-devel` (on RHEL/CentOS), `rocm-opencl-dev` (on Ubuntu)
+  - ROCM Clang-OCL Kernel Compiler: `rocm-clang-ocl`
+  - Asynchronous Task and Memory Interface (ATMI): `atmi`
+  - ROCr Debug Agent: `rocr_debug_agent`
+  - ROCm Code Object Manager: `comgr`
+  - ROC Profiler: `rocprofiler-dev`
+  - Radeon Compute Profiler: `rocm-profiler`
+* ROCm Libraries
+  - rocBLAS: `rocblas`
+  - hipBLAS: `hipblas`
+  - rocFFT: `rocfft`
+  - rocRAND: `rocrand`
+  - rocSPARSE: `rocsparse`
+  - hipSPARSE: `hipsparse`
+  - rocALUTION: `rocalution:`
+  - MIOpenGEMM: `miopengemm`
+  - MIOpen: `MIOpen-HIP` (for the HIP version), `MIOpen-OpenCL` (for the OpenCL version)
+  - HIP Thrust: `thrust` (on RHEL/CentOS), `hip-thrust` (on Ubuntu)
+  - ROCm SMI Lib: `rocm_smi_lib64`
+  - RCCL: `rccl`
+  - MIVisionX: `mivisionx`
+  - CUB HIP: `cub-hip`
 
-The ROCm platform has been tested on the following operating systems:
- * Ubuntu 14.04.04
- * Fedora 23
+To make it easier to install ROCm, the AMD binary repos provide a number of meta-packages that will automatically install multiple other packages.
+For example, `rocm-dkms` is the primary meta-package that is used to install most of the base technology needed for ROCm to operate.
+It will install the `rock-dkms` kernel driver, and another meta-package (`rocm-dev`) which installs most of the user-land ROCm core components, support software, and development tools.
 
-There is experimental support for the following operating systems:
- * Ubuntu 16.04
- * Fedora 22
+The `rocm-utils` meta-package will install useful utilities that, while not required for ROCm to operate, may still be beneficial to have.
+Finally, the `rocm-libs` meta-package will install some (but not all) of the libraries that are part of ROCm.
 
-#### Debian repository - apt-get
+The chain of software installed by these meta-packages is illustrated below
+
+```
+rocm-dkms
+ |-- rock-dkms
+ \-- rocm-dev
+      |--hsa-rocr-dev
+      |--hsa-ext-rocr-dev
+      |--rocm-device-libs
+      |--rocm-utils
+          |-- rocminfo
+          |-- rocm-cmake
+          \-- rocm-clang-ocl # This will cause OpenCL to be installed
+      |--hcc
+      |--hip_base
+      |--hip_doc
+      |--hip_hcc
+      |--hip_samples
+      |--rocm-smi
+      |--hsakmt-roct
+      |--hsakmt-roct-dev
+      |--hsa-amd-aqlprofile
+      |--comgr
+      \--rocr_debug_agent
+
+rocm-libs
+ |-- rocblas
+ |-- rocfft
+ |-- rocrand
+ \-- hipblas
+```
+
+These meta-packages are not required but may be useful to make it easier to install ROCm on most systems.
+Some users may want to skip certain packages. For instance, a user that wants to use the upstream kernel drivers (rather than those supplied by AMD) may want to skip the `rocm-dkms` and `rock-dkms` packages, and instead directly install `rocm-dev`.
+
+Similarly, a user that only wants to install OpenCL support instead of HCC and HIP may want to skip the `rocm-dkms` and `rocm-dev` packages.
+Instead, they could directly install `rock-dkms`, `rocm-opencl`, and `rocm-opencl-dev` and their dependencies.
+
+#### Ubuntu Support - installing from a Debian repository
+
+The following directions show how to install ROCm on supported Debian-based systems such as Ubuntu 18.04.
+These directions may not work as written on unsupported Debian-based distributions.
+For example, newer versions of Ubuntu may not be compatible with the `rock-dkms` kernel driver.
+As such, users may want to skip the `rocm-dkms` and `rock-dkms` packages, as described [above](#rocm-binary-package-structure), and instead [use the upstream kernel driver](#using-debian-based-rocm-with-upstream-kernel-drivers).
+
+##### 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
+
+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'

 ```
-The gpg key might change, so it may need to be updated when installing a new release. A new key is required for ROCm 1.2.0.
+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 available 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`
 
->**Warning**: Before proceeding, make sure to completely
->[uninstall any pre-release ROCm packages](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm#removing-pre-release-packages):
+##### Install
+
+Next, update the apt repository list and install the `rocm-dkms` meta-package:
 
 ```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 
+
+Users will need to be in the `video` group in order to have access to the GPU.
+As such, you should ensure that your user account is a member of the `video` group prior to using ROCm.
+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.
+##### Test basic ROCm installation
 
-##### Un-install
-To un-install the entire rocm-dev development package execute:
+After rebooting the system run the following commands to verify that the ROCm installation was successful. If you see your GPUs listed by both of these commands, you should be ready to go!
 
 ```shell
-sudo apt-get autoremove rocm
+/opt/rocm/bin/rocminfo 
+/opt/rocm/opencl/bin/x86_64/clinfo 
+``` 
+
+Note that, to make running ROCm programs easier, you may wish to put the ROCm binaries in your PATH.
+
+```shell
+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.
+
+##### 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-dev
+```
+
+##### How to uninstall from Ubuntu 16.04 or Ubuntu 18.04
+
+To uninstall the ROCm packages installed in the above directions, you can execute;
+
+```shell
+sudo apt autoremove rocm-dkms rocm-dev rocm-utils
 ```
 
 ##### 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.
+
+It is often useful to develop and test on different systems.
+For example, some development or build systems may not have an AMD GPU installed.
+In this scenario, you may prefer to avoid installing the ROCK kernel driver 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:
+##### Using Debian-based ROCm with upstream kernel drivers
+
+As described in [the above section about upstream Linux kernel support](#rocm-support-in-upstream-linux-kernels), users may want to try installing ROCm user-level software without installing AMD's custom ROCK kernel driver.
+Users who do want to use upstream kernels can run the following commands instead of installing `rocm-dkms`
 
 ```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 update
+sudo apt install rocm-dev
+echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="kfd", KERNEL=="kfd", TAG+="uaccess", GROUP="video"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/70-kfd.rules
 ```
 
-If possible, we would recommend starting with a fresh OS install.
+#### CentOS/RHEL 7 (7.4, 7.5, 7.6) Support
 
-#### RPM repository - dnf (yum)
+The following directions show how to install ROCm on supported RPM-based systems such as CentOS 7.6.
+These directions may not work as written on unsupported RPM-based distributions.
+For example, Fedora may work but may not be compatible with the `rock-dkms` kernel driver.
+As such, users may want to skip the `rocm-dkms` and `rock-dkms` packages, as described [above](#rocm-binary-package-structure), and instead [use the upstream kernel driver](#using-rpm-based-rocm-with-upstream-kernel-drivers).
 
-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 was added in ROCm 1.8, but ROCm requires a special 
+runtime environment provided by the RHEL Software Collections and additional
+dkms support packages to properly install and run.
+
+##### Preparing RHEL 7 (7.4, 7.5, 7.6) for installation
+
+RHEL is a subscription-based operating system, and you 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 it is not supported by AMD.
+
+##### Prepare CentOS/RHEL (7.4, 7.5, 7.6) for DKMS Install
+
+Installing kernel drivers on CentOS/RHEL 7.4/7.5/7.6 requires dkms tool being installed:
+
+```shell
+sudo yum install -y epel-release
+sudo yum install -y dkms kernel-headers-`uname -r` kernel-devel-`uname -r`
+```
+
+##### Installing ROCm on the system
+
+It is recommended to [remove previous ROCm installations](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm#how-to-uninstall-rocm-from-centosrhel-74-75-and-76) before installing the latest version to ensure a smooth installation.
+
+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.
+
+##### Set up permissions
+
+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
-The ROCm platform relies on a few closed source components to provide legacy
-functionality like HSAIL finalization and debugging/profiling support. These
-components are only available through the ROCm repositories, and will either be
-deprecated or become open source components in the future. These components are
-made available in the following packages:
+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
+```
+
+Current release supports CentOS/RHEL 7.4, 7.5, 7.6. If users want to update the OS version, they should completely remove ROCm packages before updating to the latest version of the OS, to avoid DKMS related issues.
+
+Once complete, reboot your system.
+
+###### Test basic ROCm installation
+
+After rebooting the system run the following commands to verify that the ROCm installation was 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

+
+```shell
+sudo yum install rock-dkms rocm-opencl-devel
+```
+
+##### Compiling applications using HCC, HIP, and other ROCm software
+
+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 uninstall ROCm from CentOS/RHEL 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6
+
+To uninstall the ROCm packages installed by the above directions, you can execute:

+```
+
+### Known issues / workarounds
+
+#### HCC: removed support for C++AMP in ROCm 2.0
+
+#### HipCaffe is supported on single GPU configurations
+
+#### The ROCm SMI library calls to rsmi_dev_power_cap_set() and rsmi_dev_power_profile_set() will not work for all but the first gpu in multi-gpu set ups.
+
+### Closed source components
+
+The ROCm platform relies on a few closed source components to provide functionality
+such as HSA image support. These components are only available through the ROCm
+repositories, and they will either be deprecated or become open source components in the
+future. These components are made available in the following packages:
 
 *  hsa-ext-rocr-dev
 
-### Getting ROCm Source Code
-Modifications can be made to the ROCm 1.2 components by modifying the open
-source code base and rebuilding the components. Source code can be cloned from
-each of the GitHub repositories using git, or users can use the repo command
-and the ROCm 1.2 manifest file to download the entire ROCm 1.2 source code.
+### Getting ROCm source code
+
+ROCm is built from open source software.
+As such, it is possible to make modifications to the various components of ROCm by downloading the source code, making modifications to it, and rebuilding the components.
+The source code for ROCm components can be cloned from each of the GitHub repositories using git.
+In order to make it easier to download the correct versions of each of these tools, this ROCm repository contains a [repo](https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/) manifest file, [default.xml](default.xml).
+Interested users can thus use this manifest file to download the source code for all of the ROCm software.
 
 #### Installing repo
-Google's repo tool allows you to manage multiple git repositories
-simultaneously. You can install it by executing the following commands:
+
+Google's repo tool allows you to manage multiple git repositories simultaneously.
+You can install it by executing the following example commands:
 
 ```shell
+mkdir -p ~/bin/
 curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
 chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
 ```
-Note: make sure ~/bin exists and it is part of your PATH
+Note that you can choose a different folder to install repo into if you desire. `~/bin/` is simply used as an example.
+
+#### Downloading the ROCm source code
+
+The following example shows how to use the `repo` binary downloaded above to download all of the ROCm source code.
+If you chose a directory other than `~/bin/` to install `repo`, you should use that directory below.
 
-#### Cloning the code
 ```shell
-mkdir ROCm && cd ROCm
-repo init -u https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm.git -b roc-1.2.0
+mkdir -p ~/ROCm/
+cd ~/ROCm/
+~/bin/repo init -u https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm.git -b roc-2.0.0
 repo sync
 ```
 
-These series of commands will pull all of the open source code associated with
-the ROCm 1.2 release.
+This will cause repo to download all of the open source code associated with this ROCm release.
+You may want to ensure that you have ssh-keys configured on your machine for your GitHub ID.
+
+#### Building the ROCm source code
+
+Each ROCm component repository contains directions for building that component.
+As such, you should go to the repository you are interested in building to find how to build it.
+
+That said, AMD also offers [a project](https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/Experimental_ROC) that demonstrates how to download, build, package, and install ROCm software on various distributions.
+The scripts here may be useful for anyone looking to build ROCm components.
+
+### Final notes
+* OpenCL Runtime and Compiler will be submitted to the Khronos Group for conformance testing prior to its final release.

+
+#### Improvements to ROCProfiler tool
+* Support for Vega 7nm
+
+#### Support for hipStreamCreateWithPriority
+* Creates a stream with the specified priority. It creates a stream on which enqueued kernels have a different priority for execution compared to kernels enqueued on normal priority streams. The priority could be higher or lower than normal priority streams.
+
+#### OpenCL 2.0 support
+* ROCm 2.0 introduces full support for kernels written in the OpenCL 2.0 C language on certain devices and systems.  Applications can detect this support by calling the “clGetDeviceInfo” query function with “parame_name” argument set to “CL_DEVICE_OPENCL_C_VERSION”.  In order to make use of OpenCL 2.0 C language features, the application must include the option “-cl-std=CL2.0” in options passed to the runtime API calls responsible for compiling or building device programs.  The complete specification for the OpenCL 2.0 C language can be obtained using the following link: https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/specs/opencl-2.0-openclc.pdf

+* Input file with counters list and kernels selecting parameters
+* Multiple counters groups and app runs supported
+* Output results in CSV format
+
+The tool can be installed from the `rocprofiler-dev` package. It will be installed into: `/opt/rocm/bin/rpl_run.sh`
+
+#### Preview for rocr Debug Agent rocr_debug_agent
+The ROCr Debug Agent is a library that can be loaded by ROCm Platform Runtime to provide the following functionality:
+* Print the state for wavefronts that report memory violation or upon executing a "s_trap 2" instruction.
+* Allows SIGINT (`ctrl c`) or SIGTERM (`kill -15`) to print wavefront state of aborted GPU dispatches.
+* It is enabled on Vega10 GPUs on ROCm1.9.
+
+The ROCm1.9 release will install the ROCr Debug Agent library at `/opt/rocm/lib/librocr_debug_agent64.so`
+
+
+#### New distribution support
+
+* Binary package support for Ubuntu 18.04
+
+#### ROCm 1.9 is ABI compatible with KFD in upstream Linux kernels.
+Upstream Linux kernels support the following GPUs in these releases:
+4.17: Fiji, Polaris 10, Polaris 11
+4.18: Fiji, Polaris 10, Polaris 11, Vega10
+
+Some ROCm features are not available in the upstream KFD:

+* Interoperability between graphics and compute
+* RDMA
+* IPC
+
+To try ROCm with an upstream kernel, install ROCm as normal, but do not install the rock-dkms package. Also add a udev rule to control `/dev/kfd` permissions:
+
+```
+    echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="kfd", KERNEL=="kfd", TAG+="uaccess", GROUP="video"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/70-kfd.rules
+```
