+# What\'s New in This Release
+
+## Hipfort-Interface for GPU Kernel Libraries
+
+Hipfort is an interface library for accessing GPU Kernels. It provides support to the AMD ROCm architecture from within the Fortran programming language. Currently, the gfortran and HIP-Clang compilers support hipfort. Note, the gfortran compiler belongs to the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). While hipfc wrapper calls hipcc for the non-fortran kernel source, gfortran is used for FORTRAN applications that call GPU kernels.
+
+The hipfort interface library is meant for Fortran developers with a focus on gfortran users. 
+
+For information on HIPFort installation and examples, see
+https://github.com/ROCmSoftwarePlatform/hipfort
+  
+
+## ROCm Data Center Tool 
+
+The ROCm™ Data Center Tool™ simplifies the administration and addresses key infrastructure challenges in AMD GPUs in cluster and datacenter environments. The important features of this tool are:
+
+* GPU telemetry  
+
+* GPU statistics for jobs 
+
+* Integration with third-party tools 
+
+* Open source 
+
+The ROCm Data Center Tool can be used in the standalone mode if all components are installed. The same set of features is also available in a library format that can be used by existing management tools. 
+
+![ScreenShot](https://github.com/Rmalavally/ROCm/blob/master/RDCComponentsrevised.png)
+
+
+Refer to the ROCm Data Center Tool™ User Guide for more details on the different modes of operation.  
+
+NOTE: The ROCm Data Center User Guide is intended to provide an overview of ROCm Data Center Tool features and how system administrators and Data Center (or HPC) users can administer and configure AMD GPUs. The guide also provides an overview of its components and open source developer handbook. 
+
+For installation information on different distributions, refer to the ROCm Data Center User Guide at
+
+https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/blob/master/AMD_ROCm_DataCenter_Tool_User_Guide.pdf
+
+
+### Error Correcting Code Fields in ROCm Data Center Tool
+
+The ROCm Data Center (RDC) tool is enhanced to provide counters to track correctable and uncorrectable errors. While a single bit per word error can be corrected, double bit per word errors cannot be corrected. 
+
+The RDC tool now helps monitor and protect undetected memory data corruption. If the system is using ECC- enabled memory, the ROCm Data Center tool can report the error counters to monitor the status of the memory. 
+
+![ScreenShot](https://github.com/Rmalavally/ROCm/blob/master/forweb.PNG)
+
+## Static Linking Libraries 
+
+The underlying libraries of AMD ROCm are dynamic and are called shared objects (.so) in Linux.
+The AMD ROCm v3.8 release includes the capability to build static ROCm libraries and link to the applications statically. CMake target files enable linking an application statically to ROCm libraries and each component exports the required dependencies for linking. The static libraries are called Archives (.a) in Linux.
+
+This release also comprises of the requisite changes required for all the components to work in a static environment. The components have been successfully tested for basic functionalities like *rocminfo /rocm_bandwidth_test* and archives.
+
+In the AMD ROCm v3.8 release, the following libraries support static linking: 
+
+![ScreenShot](https://github.com/Rmalavally/ROCm/blob/master/staticlinkinglib.PNG)
+
+# Fixed Defects
+The following defects are fixed in this release:
+
+* GPU Kernel C++ Names Not Demangled
+* MIGraphX Fails for fp16 Datatype
+* Issue with Peer-to-Peer Transfers
+* ‘rocprof’ option ‘--parallel-kernels’ Not Supported in this Release
+
+# Known Issues 
+
+## Undefined Reference Issue in Statically Linked Libraries
+
+Libraries and applications statically linked using flags -rtlib=compiler-rt, such as rocBLAS, have an implicit dependency on gcc_s not captured in their CMAKE configuration.  
+
+Client applications may require linking with an additional library -lgcc_s to resolve the undefined reference to symbol '_Unwind_Resume@@GCC_3.0'.
+
+## MIGraphX Pooling Operation Fails for Some Models
+
+MIGraphX does not work for some models with pooling operations and the following error appears:
+
+*‘test_gpu_ops_test FAILED’*
+
+This issue is currently under investigation and there is no known workaround currently. 
+
+## MIVisionX Installation Error on CentOS/RHEL8.2 and SLES 15
+
+Installing ROCm on MIVisionX results in the following error on CentOS/RHEL8.2 and SLES 15:
+
+*"Problem: nothing provides opencv needed"*
+
+As a workaround, install opencv before installing MIVisionX.
+
+
+# Deploying ROCm
+AMD hosts both Debian and RPM repositories for the ROCm v3.8.x packages.

-  - rocFFT: `rocfft`
-  - rocRAND: `rocrand`
-  - rocSPARSE: `rocsparse`
-  - hipSPARSE: `hipsparse`
-  - ROCm SMI Lib: `rocm_smi_lib64`
-  - rocThrust: `rocThrust`
-  - MIOpen: `MIOpen-HIP` (for the HIP version), `MIOpen-OpenCL` (for the OpenCL version)

-  - RCCL: `rccl`
-
-To make it easier to install ROCm, the AMD binary repositories 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.
-
-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.
-
-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
-       |--hsakmt-roct
-       |--hsakmt-roct-dev
-       |--rocm-cmake
-       |--rocm-device-libs
-       |--hcc
-       |--hip_base
-       |--hip_doc
-       |--hip_hcc
-       |--hip_samples
-       |--rocm-smi
-       |--hsa-amd-aqlprofile
-       |--comgr
-       |--rocr_debug_agent
-       \--rocm-utils
-          |--rocminfo
-          \--rocm-clang-ocl # This will cause OpenCL to be installed
-
-  rocm-libs

-    |--hipblas
-    |--rocblas
-    |--rocfft
-    |--rocrand
-    |--hipsparse
-    \--rocsparse
-```
-
-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
-follows:
-
-```shell
-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 available in a standard key ring
-distribution, but has the following sha1sum hash:
-
-`e85a40d1a43453fe37d63aa6899bc96e08f2817a  rocm.gpg.key`
-
-##### Install
-
-Next, update the apt repository list and install the `rocm-dkms` meta-package:
-
-```shell
-sudo apt update
-sudo apt install rocm-dkms
-```
-
-##### 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
-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 $LOGNAME
-```
-
-You may want to ensure that any future users you add to your system are put into the "video" group by default. To do that, you can run the following commands:
-
-```shell
-echo 'ADD_EXTRA_GROUPS=1' | sudo tee -a /etc/adduser.conf
-echo 'EXTRA_GROUPS=video' | sudo tee -a /etc/adduser.conf
-```
-
-Once complete, reboot your system.
-
-##### Test basic ROCm installation
-
-After rebooting the system run the following commands to verify that the ROCm installation was successful. If you see your GPUs listed by both of these commands, you should be ready to go!
-
-```shell
-/opt/rocm/bin/rocminfo
-/opt/rocm/opencl/bin/x86_64/clinfo
-```
-
-Note that, to make running ROCm programs easier, you may wish to put the ROCm binaries in your PATH.
-
-```shell
-echo 'export PATH=$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.
-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 update
-sudo apt install rocm-dev
-```
->**Note:** To execute ROCm enabled apps you will require a system with the full
->ROCm driver stack 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 update
-sudo apt install rocm-dev
-echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="kfd", KERNEL=="kfd", TAG+="uaccess", GROUP="video"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/70-kfd.rules
-```
-
-#### CentOS/RHEL 7 (7.6) Support
-
-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).
-
-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 (7.6) 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
-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
-```
-
-Third, enable additional repositories by downloading and installing the epel-release-latest-7 repository 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 (7.6) for DKMS Install
-
-Installing kernel drivers on CentOS/RHEL 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-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
-```
-
-The repo's URL should point to the location of the repositories repodata database. Install ROCm components using these commands:
-
-```shell
-sudo yum install rocm-dkms
-```
-
-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
-groups
-```
-
-To add yourself to the video (or wheel) group you will need the sudo password and can use the
-following command:
-
-```shell
-sudo usermod -a -G video $LOGNAME
-```
-
-You may want to ensure that any future users you add to your system are put into the "video" group by default. To do that, you can run the following commands:
-
-```shell
-echo 'ADD_EXTRA_GROUPS=1' | sudo tee -a /etc/adduser.conf
-echo 'EXTRA_GROUPS=video' | sudo tee -a /etc/adduser.conf
-```
-
-Current release supports CentOS/RHEL 7.6. If users want to update the OS version, they should completely remove ROCm packages before updating to the latest version of the OS, to avoid DKMS related issues.
-
-Once complete, reboot your system.
-
-###### Test basic ROCm installation
-
-After rebooting the system run the following commands to verify that the ROCm installation was successful. If you see your GPUs listed by both of these commands, you should be ready to go!
-
-```shell
-/opt/rocm/bin/rocminfo
-/opt/rocm/opencl/bin/x86_64/clinfo
-```
-
-Note that, to make running ROCm programs easier, you may wish to put the ROCm binaries in your PATH.
-
-```shell
-echo 'export PATH=$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.

-
-```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 7.6
-
-To uninstall the ROCm packages installed by the above directions, you can execute:

-```
-
-### Known issues / workarounds
-
-#### Memory access fault while running Memory intensive workloads
-User may experience "Memory Access Fault" error if memory intensive workloads are executed back to back. This error can be avoided by waiting 3 seconds between workload execution.
-
-#### Docker container environment variable setting
-Applications fail when docker container is launched on NUMA system without --security-opt seccomp=unconfined. Please set "--security-opt seccomp=unconfined" to avoid this issue.
-
-### 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
-
-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 example commands:
-
-```shell
-mkdir -p ~/bin/
-curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
-chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
-```
-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.
-
-```shell
-mkdir -p ~/ROCm/
-cd ~/ROCm/
-~/bin/repo init -u https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm.git -b roc-2.8.0
-repo sync
-```
-
-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.
-
-#### Deprecation Notice
-
-### HCC
-AMD is deprecating HCC to put more focus on HIP development and on
-other languages supporting heterogeneous compute.  We will no longer
-develop any new feature in HCC. We will stop maintaining HCC after
-its final release, which is planned for the end of 2019.  If your
-application was developed with the hc C++ API, we would encourage you
-to transition it to other languages supported by AMD, such as HIP or
-OpenCL.  HIP and hc languages share the same compiler technology, so
-many hc kernel language features (including inline assembly) are also
-available through the HIP compilation path.
-
-### hipThrust
-hip-thrust has been removed in ROCm2.7.
-
-
-### Final notes
-* OpenCL Runtime and Compiler will be submitted to the Khronos Group for conformance testing prior to its final release.
