Title: Linux Driver for Blockchain Compute 17.30.1029 Post by: Coyn on August 19, 2017, 10:52:16 AM We all know that the new Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition Beta for Blockchain Compute Driver Version 17.30.1029 was released for Windows a few days ago.
When is this driver actually going to be compiled for Linux? We really need it AMD. Most of the huge farms are running on Linux. Fix it! ;D Title: Re: Linux Driver for Blockchain Compute 17.30.1029 Post by: QuintLeo on August 19, 2017, 08:47:47 PM Try posting on AMD's website, they MIGHT pay attention to that.
IMO AMD dropped the ball BADLY when they released this driver for Windows AND NOT FOR LINUX, since the bulk of cryptocoin rigs run LINUX. Title: Re: Linux Driver for [Suspicious link removed]pute 17.30.1029 Post by: cpunkt on August 29, 2017, 08:48:04 AM Here is the solution:
The new ROCm Kernel works great, my hashrate went from 155 > 167Mhs/s with 6*RX470 with Ubuntu 16.4 #Install new ROCm Kernel: wget -qO - http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/apt/debian/rocm.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add - sudo sh -c 'echo deb [arch=amd64] http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/apt/debian/ xenial main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rocm.list' sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install rocm #edit grub sudo nano /etc/default/grub #2MB fragments for Ellesmere are enabled with a grub option: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="amdgpu.vm_fragment_size=9" sudo update-grub sudo reboot choose new Kernel and its done!

Attempt to install rocm failed at amdgpu module rebuild stage (version 17.10). Attempt to boot new kernel resulted in black screen during kernel start at the moment when a video mode should be changed. #2: ubuntu-16.04.3 desktop (new installation, no yet amdgpu driver - used built-in one). rocm installation succeeded, after reboot the new kernel is running well. Attempt to install amdgpu-17.30 failed at module rebuild stage: "headers 4.11 not supported" message, build log contains errors with incompatible argument types of atomic vs struct. Original amdgpu driver (built-in) mining with the same hash rate as before (2 MH/s lower that it does on Windows).

Title: Re: Linux Driver for [Suspicious link removed]pute 17.30.1029 Post by: drrobert on September 01, 2017, 06:18:04 AM It works but, as I've said on SMOS thread, using roc kernel and changing boot parameter makes power consumption goes from 1150W to 1550W (on the wall, at least on my rx580 rig). Have you checked your power consumption after this change? I use roc kernel on smos and consume it is the same, maybe you changed power step (consume is setup at level of bios of gpu, i have steps from 2 to 7 to my target voltage), check them on console. Title: Re: Linux Driver for [Suspicious link removed]pute 17.30.1029 Post by: osnwt on September 01, 2017, 07:17:27 AM It works but, as I've said on SMOS thread, using roc kernel and changing boot parameter makes power consumption goes from 1150W to 1550W (on the wall, at least on my rx580 rig). Have you checked your power consumption after this change? On Windows I had 1162W. After switch to this kernel on Linux I tried to downvolt my rx470 by changing voltage table offsets in the DPM stages (that is, set offset of stage 4 or 6, or directly 1000-1050mV, to stage 7, so power consumption is lesser). At the same time I overclock memory and downclock GPU (mostly the same as on Windows). Used ohgodatool for that in realtime.At the moment I was unable to get the same power consumption, it went from 1162 to 1300 now. I know that it is not the best way to downvolt. I tried to change VDDC offset in the BIOS (since realtime VDDC change tools are not publicly available, and I have too few cards to hack it myself). This way works with my Sapphire cards, but it requires many reflashes when tuning every card for a stable operation. So I hoped to use only software ways to overclock and downvolt without changing BIOS (except timings). Probably I have to use the BIOS way anyway if I want a comparable consumption to Windows rig. As for the hashrate: even if displayed rates are bit lower (Claymore's miner) than on Windows, actual pool rates are the same. So the consumption is only my headache yet. Title: Re: Linux Driver for [Suspicious link removed]pute 17.30.1029 Post by: drrobert on September 01, 2017, 09:17:39 AM - how to check these power steps on linux console? - how to change them? - my power consumption at wall were too high also before change (4x rx580 @ 1150W at wall) with smos (oc 1175-2250 dpm state 2). what about yours? Thank you in advance If you use smos you can change them on web app, my power consume is 1090 watt at wall 8 x rx480 (1170/2200 -> 30.6mhs each) /sys/class/drm/card(Number)/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level must be manual /sys/class/drm/card(Number) should be number of dpm state that you choiched Title: Re: (SOLVED) Re: Linux Driver for Blockchain Compute 17.30.1029 Post by: osnwt on September 01, 2017, 03:37:16 PM 1.Download latest linux 4.12.10 from kernel.org 2.Apply patches from here: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/project/amd-xorg-ddx/series/?ordering=-last_updated( more advanced way) 3.Compile kernel -> the ubuntu way. 4.Install kernel using dpkg 5.

However, I found that linux-4.12.10 even linux-4.13.x from linux.org does not support vm_fragment. There is no vm_fragment member in ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_vm.c. And I don't know which patches to be applied from patchwork.freedesktop.org. Finally, I google "linux amdgp vm_fragment_size", github.com/torvalds comes out. What to do is just download linux from github.com/torvalds and buid and run laik2 steps. And everything works perfect.

Whilst its great, dual mining for Siacoin is much better with the Windows Driver. Not necessarily for speed, but my GPU's are getting to 80 degrees with my dcri as low as 10.

Maybe I'm missing something when trying to apply the patches, I'm using pwclient and can sort on all new patches, but as I mentioned above all fail.
Has anyone managed to get the Vega working in Linux and would be kind enough to share the steps, including specific patches against specific kernel.

Having modded my AMD bios's using Windows to about 30mh per card (180mh on a 6 card rig) I then setup linux with this driver, and i am getting only 177mhs Does this sound normal? Difference of 0.5 mh's per card for linux? One thing i did notice is windows every now and then would have a dramatic drop, and then increase back to the expected speeds, where as this seems far more stable at one speed?

Thoughts on all of this? mostly the windows has more frequent state changes whereas linux isn't doing that. monitor gpu clocks using below commands for active core and memory frequencies. cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_dpm_sclk | grep '*' cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_dpm_mclk | grep '*' replace card0 with yours Title: Re: Linux Driver for Blockchain Compute 17.30.1029 Post by: CryptoSquad on October 16, 2017, 07:01:09 PM Ok but why the lower hashrate in Linux?

I mentioned it in my previous comment. Your cards might be jumping back and forth low-high clocks in windows (more frequently) while in linux might be stuck on 7th state clock or jumping between low-high clocks less frequently (There are 8 gpu core clock states for amd gpu) Are the cards BIOS modded/undervolted?

Title: Re: Linux Driver for Blockchain Compute 17.30.1029 Post by: CryptoSquad on October 16, 2017, 09:12:41 PM Think there’s a miss understanding
I’ve run the command you showed and it just shows my core and memory clock of each card To be clear on my question In Windows I get 30mhs per card with my custom bios I’m Linux I am only getting 29.5 per card with the same card. Seems like the Linux driver has a slightly lower hash rate than the windows driver. I’ve heard others having that same discrepancy The command you showed doesn’t really help? Unless I am missing something?

Unless I am missing something? The command I provided gives you the current clock rate. If your clock rate is same as that on windows (monitor for several minutes) then it might be just the drivers. This was happening for me when dual mining. I was hitting the power limit (had a lower TDP and Max power in my custom BIOS) and card was throttling at lower core frequencies -> leading to lower hash rates. I'll check how much I get on mine for solo mining at same clocks on windows & linux.

will probably have to reinstall the system. In short: uninstalled prior driver installed 17.40 driver modified grub as indicated Used AMD commands (described in their file) to install Rocm stuff: Code: sudo apt install -y rocm-amdgpu-pro Code: echo 'setenv LLVM_BIN /opt/amdgpu-pro/bin' | sudo tee /etc/profile.d/amdgpu-pro.csh perhaps, the last two were a mistake (I have no idea), but they don't provide any info on whether to use those two or not, so i decided to use them. Now the darned thing is at a prompt with blinking cursor and when I try ctrl/alt/f2, it says that it is a low graphic mode. Disaster. EDIT: it's the messed up driver (at least for my mobo-processor combo), now I am certain as I uninstalled the driver and Ubuntu boots just fine on rocm kernel. Final test-will remove non-Vega GPU, maybe this is what matters for some reason. Probably tomorrow. Title: Re: Linux Driver for Blockchain Compute 17.30.1029 Post by: ngdias on November 05, 2017, 07:35:50 PM I tested the drivers in Ubuntu 16.04.3, from http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-Pro-Beta-Mining-Driver-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx (http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-Pro-Beta-Mining-Driver-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx)
The test GPU was a Radeon R9 Fury X, which is listed as compatible. At first the drivers were breaking boot (tried 2 versions in different AMD support pages), there was no GUI. To uninstall, you can press Ctrl+Alt+F1, login with your credentials and run Code: amdgpu-pro-uninstall Then I started googling and found https://askubuntu.com/questions/880523/cant-login-after-installing-amdgpu-pro-16-60 (https://askubuntu.com/questions/880523/cant-login-after-installing-amdgpu-pro-16-60) other people that were able to get the drivers working by using one of the options of the install script, either Code: ./amdgpu-pro-install --px Code: ./amdgpu-pro-install --compute Everything else was working as per the official AMD support pages.

Hi, I've got 9x MSI Armor RX580 8G recently. The cards by itself not really great maybe because of Hynix memory. I was able to tune them from 21Mhs ETH stock (single mode) to 29.5/930 ETH/Dcr (dual-mode) under Win10, 110/75W GpuChip/GpuCore, 1500W from the wall for 8x cards and 1200W in single mode. The problem with Win10 and Blockchain driver I can't really change the core voltage, whatever I set in bios, the driver sets it to 931, and most importantly Win10 doesn't boot with 9th card. Anyways, I gave a try to Ubuntu 16.04.2 TLS and the latest AMDGPU-PRO Driver for Linux 17.40 and setup everything as per their manual. a) It boots with 7xGPUs but with 8x I get 'the system is running in low-graphics mode' and nothing really helps. b) It gives 23Mhs ETH for a single mode and draws 110/130W, around 250W per GPU, which is really bad. Setting the voltages int Claymore looks like doesn't work, it draws the same from the wall. Is the previous driver 17.30 better then 17.40?

Title: Re: Linux Driver for Blockchain Compute 17.30.1029 Post by: Rickirs on December 12, 2017, 04:27:20 PM I have been directed to this thread as trying to configure Asus Dual RX580 O8G (Here is thread : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2567650.0 )
Since this thread is little old, out of box without modding and proper driver, I can only get ~22MH/s only on my RX580 I found that using AMDGPU-Pro beta mining (amdgpu-pro-17.40-483984) and current stable AMDGPUR-Pro (amdgpu-pro-17.40-492261) gives me same result stock ie. ~22 MHs 1. Have enabled large page support 2. Have installed ROCm kernel already I suppose without bios modding I should be able to get ~25 Mhz . And where can I get good settings for my gpu bios ?

My hashrate droped today from 28 MH/s to 22 fo my RX 470 cards. This is not because of the drivers themselves, but because of updating linux-image and linux-headers through package manager. Un install them as shown in the following link https://askubuntu.com/questions/995541/ethereum-mining-on-ubuntu-16-04-dropped-hashrates-significantly-on-amd-block-cha |
