Submodules

XGBoost ROCm support requires a few modules, which can be initialized as,

git submodule update --init --recursive

Configure

The following export may be required for some systems, and the ROCm path depends on installation,

1. export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:/opt/rocm/lib/cmake:/opt/rocm/lib/cmake/AMDDeviceLibs/
2. mkdir build
3. cd build
4. cmake -DUSE_HIP=ON ../
5. or cmake -DUSE_HIP=1 ../
6. or `cmake -DUSE_HIP=1 -DUSE_RCCL=1 ../'
7. or cmake -DUSE_HIP=1 -DGOOGLE_TEST=1 ../

The first command may be optional depending on system configure.

The USE_HIP macro enables HIP/ROCm support. USE_RCCL enables RCCL. GOOGLE_TEST enables Google test.
