PSA for those using DaVinci Resolve with AMD GPUs, don't install ROCM 7.2, stay on 7.1.1 (programming.dev)

Been fighting this bug for a while now, but since I updated rocm to 7.2 DaVinci resolve died.

Took me a while to track down that it was rocm until I ran across an endeavour os post about it. But if you’ve noticed that resolve stopped loading and not showing errors, Try downgrading rocm and trying again.

If you need to downgrade your amdgpu-install package, AMD's repo link is here https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu-install/

Can you share the post here? Does it elaborate on what's failing?

I'll also add it to the main post, but here is the link i was referring too

https://forum.endeavouros.com/t/can-t-use-davinci-resolve-studio-crash-to-desktop/77870/11

and here is the AUR comment thread it was linking too

Sadly it's above my head.

Thank you for linking these. The second one suggests the following

Update: Turns out that this is happening because the update of opencl-amd package, the newest ROCm 7.2 drivers appear to not be compatible with DaVinci, I installed rocm-opencl-runtime from the extra repo since it still on 7.1.1 and now its working again.. It also doesn't work with opencl-mesa, it crashes launching a project

I'll dig through to see what can be done about it.

I am curious if it's a Davinci issue or a AMD one. Would love to hear the results.

[–] vikingtons@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

have filed this to the ROCm team, hope to get someone looking into this tomorrow.

[–] the16bitgamer@programming.dev 3 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Thank you, hopefully it’s something small

Good news, seems there's an existing internal ticket covering this defect. It's an application-side issue pertaining to libProResRAW.so.

I believe we're shipping a workaround at the ROCm framework side in 7.2.1

[–] the16bitgamer@programming.dev 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That is fantastic to hear!

Someone on the github issue thread has been asking for clinfo output on affected systems, theorising that client issues are caused by issues with vendor detection.

This is a bit of an ask, but if it's quick to jump forward and back between ROCm releases on your setup, would you be able to pass your clinfo output from 7.2.0 into the ticket linked above? No worries if not

[–] the16bitgamer@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

More than happy to, though it might be later today thing

[–] vikingtons@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

no hurry at all, thanks a bunch!

[–] the16bitgamer@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Posted, I also had an error on the output

Memory access fault by GPU node-1 (Agent handle: 0x5a020e3bce10) on address 0x7f86a34eb000. Reason: Page not present or supervisor privilege. Aborted (core dumped)

can you tell me which device this is with?

edit: nvm i saw you posted it directly into the thread - gfx1103 = 780M iirc

Framework 13 AMD 7640U

We'll find out. It's filed to the public issue tracker, which is a nice change of pace. Hope you can stay appraised of the progress from the following link:

I don't suspect it's davinci resolve. This is likely due to rocm-opencl.

It's a long weekend, so I likely won't hear back from my colleagues until Tuesday at the earliest
