I am trying to use AMDGPU.jl but it installs with several errors and does not work.
Operating Systems: Fedora and Endeavor OS
Julia version: 1.11.4 installed via the curl command on the Julia website
```julia
julia> using AMDGPU

Then i tried allocating a ROCArray:
```julia

```
Is it because my GPU RX6600 is unsupported by ROCm right now? If so, is there a way to still use hacks to get it to run?

I am using this command in my `.bashrc` file to make AMDGPU work with a Ryzen 7840U CPU which is not officially supported:
```julia
export HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=11.0.2
```
A similar command might work for you.
Try:
```julia
export HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0
```

I used the following guide to install ROCm on my Linux distro:

Which also included adding
```julia
export HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0
```
now, AMDGPU.jl works on Arch. Thanks. It still does not work on Fedora though.

While the fix you suggested worked on my Arch linux installation after I installed ROCm from the ArchUserRepository (AUR). It did not work on my Fedora install even after I installed ROCm through the dnf package manager. Still looking for a fix there.

I have the same issue on Fedora 41 with a RX 7600 GPU. Setting the variable HSA\_OVERRIDE\_GFX\_VERSION to 11.0.2 or 10.3.0 seems to have no effect:
```julia
$ env HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0 julia

ROCm itself seems to work according to C++ tests.

I removed my Fedora install and installed Debian which is apparently officially supported by AMD. I followed the official installation instructions and it works for me now.

It appears that Julia finds the correct librocblas.so located in /usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100/lib/librocblas.so, but there are some undefined symbols related to the garbage collector?

Can you find where `libhsa-runtime64.so` and `libamdhip64.so` are located? You can then symlink them to `/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100` and retry

I created the symlinks:
```julia
root@sirius:/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100# locate libhsa-runtime64.so
/usr/lib64/libhsa-runtime64.so
/usr/lib64/libhsa-runtime64.so.1
/usr/lib64/libhsa-runtime64.so.1.14.0
root@sirius:/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100# ln -s /usr/lib64/libhsa-runtime64.so .
root@sirius:/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100# ln -s /usr/lib64/libhsa-runtime64.so.1 .
root@sirius:/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100# ln -s /usr/lib64/libhsa-runtime64.so.1.14.0 .
root@sirius:/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100# locate libamdhip64.so
/usr/lib64/libamdhip64.so
/usr/lib64/libamdhip64.so.6
/usr/lib64/libamdhip64.so.6.2.41134
root@sirius:/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100# ln -s /usr/lib64/libamdhip64.so .
root@sirius:/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100# ln -s /usr/lib64/libamdhip64.so.6 .
root@sirius:/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100# ln -s /usr/lib64/libamdhip64.so.6.2.41134 .
```
and I get the exact same two warnings, which is weird. I tried reinstalling AMDGPU.jl from scratch and I still got those two last warnings about HSA and HIP:
```julia
julia> using AMDGPU
┌ Warning: HSA runtime is unavailable, compilation and runtime functionality will be disabled.
└ @ AMDGPU ~/.julia/packages/AMDGPU/VTHhJ/src/AMDGPU.jl:168
┌ Warning: HIP library is unavailable, HIP integration will be disabled.
└ @ AMDGPU ~/.julia/packages/AMDGPU/VTHhJ/src/AMDGPU.jl:195
```

My mistake! The symlinks should go in:
```julia
/usr/lib64/rocm/gfx1100
```
Now I get no warnings:
```julia
julia> using AMDGPU
julia> AMDGPU.functional()
true
```
