Note for anyone who has a Polaris GPU (Radeon RX 5xx) debugging issues with this package; Packages that use OpenCL like clinfo or davinci-resolve-studio will need you to downgrade opencl-amd to 1:5.7.1-1 as well as amdgpu-pro-oglp to 23.10_1620044-1 to avoid coredumps & segfaults.

DVR would not open unless these 2 packages were downgraded (along with their dependencies). Had to figure it out the hard way after hours using valgrind and rebooting over and over. Hopefully someone else will not have to pull their hair out trying to resolve their issue.

@luciddream, speedy recovery!

I think we are all sorry to hear about your accident and hope your arm heals up quickly.

It looks like 7.0 is now out. I will try to release it asap (probably today) but I had a motorcycle accident and my arm is in a cast for at least another week, so it will be a challenge.

@luciddream, Won't be me, I was [edit:fussed] at and run off for requesting (and eventually providing) code to disable pie-menus (optionally) and disabling that 'auto-close menus if you move your mouse of the way to read' thing, as well as preventing Blender from moving my cursor to menu options.

Blender is also broken for me but I don't really have time to report it to the blender devs (I've been very busy with other stuff).

I have the feeling that blender support is not very good lately. I took a look at the forums like a week ago and there wasn't too much activity, I almost wrote a comment but then decided not to. Maybe someone that actually uses blender can try and post there.

Breaks Blender for RX 5700XT/X series. Downgrade to 367bba3cca7f0573b7e6162eb664c3a11e00e94b, last known-working.

damn, my system sucks. I think that result was with 7.0.0beta, the 7.0.0rc is even worse for me. But I'm happy it works for you :)

Wow, impressive performance with the amdCL library! The OpenCL Mesa library is the default "CL" implementation on CachyOS. Now my system is running flawlessly using the AMD library!

I ran the benchmark and compared it with yours to have a reference point. The result is fantastic for the 9070 XT on CachyOS, thanks to your contribution to the ROCm package.

Thanks for your time and support. :)

I just installed opencl-mesa, but I get no segfault when both packages are installed. I only get a segfault when amdocl64.icd is renamed to something like amdocl64-bk.icd. And even then, the AMD libraries are trying to be used by clinfo.

If I rename to amdocl64.icd111111 or remove the amdocl64.icd file, then opencl-mesa is used. But the performance is terrible. I get 18131 points in Geekbench when ROCm can do up to 155883

So my point is that, you should use whatever library you like, but probably you only need opencl-amd or opencl-amd-dev for OpenCL and ROCm capabilities.

Hi Luciddream,

Thanks for your reply. Just to clarify, here is what I currently have installed on my system regarding OpenCL packages:

❯ paru -Q | grep -i opencl

lib32-opencl-mesa 1:25.2.0-1 opencl-amd 1:7.0.0-1 opencl-amd-dev 1:7.0.0-1 opencl-headers 2:2024.10.24-1 opencl-mesa 1:25.2.0-1

❯ paru -Qm | grep -i opencl

opencl-amd 1:7.0.0-1 opencl-amd-dev 1:7.0.0-1

❯ pacman -Q | grep -i opencl

lib32-opencl-mesa 1:25.2.0-1 opencl-amd 1:7.0.0-1 opencl-amd-dev 1:7.0.0-1 opencl-headers 2:2024.10.24-1 opencl-mesa 1:25.2.0-1

It seems both the Mesa and AMD OpenCL packages are installed at the same time, which might be causing the conflict you mentioned. If you want, I can try removing some of these packages to test if that fixes the issue.

Please let me know what you recommend.

Thanks again for your help!
