How to build MIOpen.dll on Windows

[scarsty]

Please see here:

#2703 (comment)

---

Install VS 2022, ninja, cmake, rocm, and so on.
Install vcpkg, and use it to install bz2, sqlite3, nlohmann_json, boost.
Sometimes CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH on Windows only recognize the first path, so copy all rocm files to vcpkg's lib path (ex: d:/project/microsoft/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/).
Copy bzcat.exe and bzip2.dll to some bin PATH.
Open ./CMakeFiles.txt, at line 70, remove 0.7.3 REQUIRED.
Create unistd.h yourself.

#ifndef _UNISTD_H

#define _UNISTD_H
#include <io.h>
#include <process.h>
#endif /* _UNISTD_H */

Download half.hpp from https://github.com/ROCm/half/blob/master/web/half.hpp, copy it to include PATH.
Copy boost_filesystem-vc140-mt.lib to libboost_filesystem-vc71-mt.lib (it is confused to how cmake guess the file name).
Something about amd_comgr (head and cmake files) are lost, copy them from somewhere. Linux version may be useful.

Use x64 native tools command prompt of VS 2022 to enter cmd, switch to the path of MIOpen.

mkdir build
cd build

cmake .. -DMIOPEN_BACKEND=HIP -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="D:\project\microsoft\vcpkg\installed\x64-windows" -G "Ninja" -DMIOPEN_USE_MLIR=Off -DMIOPEN_ENABLE_AI_KERNEL_TUNING=Off -DMIOPEN_ENABLE_AI_IMMED_MODE_FALLBACK=Off -DHALF_INCLUDE_DIR="d:/project/microsoft/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/include" -DMIOPEN_USE_COMPOSABLEKERNEL=Off -DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM=ninja.exe -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER="d:/project/microsoft/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/bin/clang.exe" -DMIOPEN_SQLITE3_USE_SYSTEM=On -DHIP_PLATFORM="amd" -DBoost_DEBUG=ON -DBoost_INCLUDE_DIR="d:/project/microsoft/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/include" -DBUILD_TESTING=Off

ninja

Some options have been closed, I do not make sure they are the reason to slow speed or not. The dependencies are harder to build.

Then you can get miopen.dll, but it seems has some bugs. Maybe we have to wait for rocm 6 for windows.

miopenFindConvolutionForwardAlgorithm will get:

MIOpen(HIP): Error [Compile] 'hiprtcCompileProgram(prog.get(), c_options.size(), c_options.data())' naive_conv.cpp: HIPRTC_ERROR_COMPILATION (6)

@johnnynunez @Sabrewarrior
Maybe you can try it. Let me know if you met some bump.

[johnnynunez]

thanks! I have experience in linux but not much in windows.
Can you share the binaries?

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GV4MaYiKaUdZmGY3Hgn8r-eBwAJdxDNB/view?usp=sharing
as I mentioned, it still has some bugs.

I have a question.

-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER="d:/project/microsoft/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/bin/clang.exe"

Is this "clang.exe" from ROCm/bin or not?
I'm getting this error with clang.exe from ROCm on running ninja after cmake.

clang++: error: cannot find ROCm device library; provide its path via '--rocm-path' or '--rocm-device-lib-path', or pass '-nogpulib' to build without ROCm device library

[lshqqytiger]

I had to replace DEFINES = with DEFINES = --rocm-path="path/to/rocm/5.7" in build.ninja file.
Also, I think it is not https://github.com/ROCm/half/blob/master/web/half.hpp, but https://github.com/ROCm/half/blob/master/include/half.hpp.
Nevertheless, I'm failing at the almost final step.

[lshqqytiger]

I replaced bin/amd_comgr0507.dll with lib/amd_comgr0507.lib in build.ninja file, and now I can build MIOpen. Thanks.

[scarsty]

In fact some tricks are still needed. And some errors occur when trying to compute a convolution with the dll.

[A-Ghorab]

Any updates with the new version?

[johnnynunez]

Did you try with rocm 6.3?

[scarsty]

Did you try with rocm 6.3?

Is it for windows?

Hi @scarsty, there is the WSL support for ROCm: https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/radeon/en/latest/docs/install/wsl/howto_wsl.html#
and there is the compatibility matrix: https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/radeon/en/latest/docs/compatibility/wsl/wsl_compatibility.html

Hi @scarsty, there is the WSL support for ROCm: https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/radeon/en/latest/docs/install/wsl/howto_wsl.html# and there is the compatibility matrix: https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/radeon/en/latest/docs/compatibility/wsl/wsl_compatibility.html

Feel like this response is kind of tone deaf. Generally anyone posting on and Q&A board has already exhausted all other options and is well aware of the alternatives. Im gonna go out on a limb and say that wsl is not a valid option for the OPs use case

[scarsty]

Hi @scarsty, there is the WSL support for ROCm: https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/radeon/en/latest/docs/install/wsl/howto_wsl.html# and there is the compatibility matrix: https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/radeon/en/latest/docs/compatibility/wsl/wsl_compatibility.html

In fact it is not easy to convince my guest to use WSL. Most of them want to use Windows directly.

[johnnynunez]

New HIP SDK 6.2.0 is on windows: https://www.amd.com/en/developer/resources/rocm-hub/eula/licenses.html?filename=AMD-Software-PRO-Edition-24.Q4-Win10-Win11-For-HIP.exe @scarsty

[johnnynunez]

I've seen that I could compile 6.2 MiOpen on windows: #3263

@scarsty Can you compile it?
New hip sdk 6.2.0 is available on windows. And MIOpen can be compiled in 6.2.0
New HIP SDK 6.2.0 is on windows: https://www.amd.com/en/developer/resources/rocm-hub/eula/licenses.html?filename=AMD-Software-PRO-Edition-24.Q4-Win10-Win11-For-HIP.exe

[johnnynunez]

and where is miopen/lib/cmake/miopen?

[scarsty]

and where is miopen/lib/cmake/miopen?

This is a good question, I don't know.

[johnnynunez]

and where is miopen/lib/cmake/miopen?

This is a good question, I don't know.

Anyway... I don't understand anything... how they deploy this....
for example, to compile pytorch, it ask me for all the cmakes, not the dll or lib.

[johnnynunez]

@huanrwan-amd @scarsty Scarsty has more experience than me. I've seen that there are paths that exists on linux that on windows not.
For example cmake files, that is not in the repository. But is not only miopen, there are more libraries.

[johnnynunez]

@huanrwan-amd miopen is necessary for accelerate operations on pytorch, that I'm trying to compile.

[johnnynunez]

[johnnynunez]

also @huanrwan-amd instructions are only for linux, not windows
https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/MIOpen/en/latest/install/install.html

[scarsty]

The dll for ROCM 6.2 is here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/14zQaCXR1CDEQS5i77NOVYWhr_CrLEhXz/view?usp=sharing

[johnnynunez]

Honestly, I don't understand why:

1. They don't add instructions in Windows.
2. They don't add it to the HIP SDK if it already compiles in the github runners.

[mirh]

To be fair, they actually just updated the "main" instructions a few days ago.
And I'm not super sure which rocm versions the new drivers ship, but the same day they were released this popped up (were it just a coincidence, take note the support is for 6.2.3)

This is WSL, not windows natively

i don’t know if the second point is interesting.
I mean from nvidia, you have:
CUDA
CUDNN
TENSORRT

so maybe, we need exe installation of miopen and the other important submodules. If not, it should be exists instructions how to compile it in windows

[johnnynunez]

@junliume @apwojcik Do you have more details/instructions to build it?

[scarsty]

Now it is not hard to build it on Windows. You can use vcpkg to install the dependencies:

.\vcpkg install boost-filesystem:x64-windows-static boost-container:x64-windows-static boost-any:x64-windows-static boost-range:x64-windows-static boost-date-time:x64-windows-static boost-interprocess:x64-windows-static boost-hof:x64-windows-static bzip2:x64-windows-static sqlite3:x64-windows-static nlohmann-json:x64-windows-static frugally-deep:x64-windows-static

Of course you have to download ninja and bzip2 and put them in your PATH.

Modify CMakeLists.txt

Change

find_package(ROCM 0.7.3 REQUIRED PATHS /opt/rocm)

to

find_package(ROCM REQUIRED PATHS "C:/Program Files/AMD/ROCm/6.2")

Use VS Native x64 command line, CMake command is like this:

cmake .. -DMIOPEN_BACKEND=HIP -DCMAKE_MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY="MultiThreaded" -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="c:\project\microsoft\vcpkg\installed\x64-windows-static" -G "Ninja" -DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM="ninja.exe" -DHALF_INCLUDE_DIR="c:/project/microsoft/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows-static/include" -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER="C:/Program Files/AMD/ROCm/6.2/bin/clang.exe" -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="C:/Program Files/AMD/ROCm/6.2/bin/clang.exe" -DHIP_PLATFORM="amd" -DBoost_DEBUG=ON -DBoost_INCLUDE_DIR="c:/project/microsoft/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows-static/include" -DMIOPEN_SQLITE3_USE_SYSTEM=On -DBUILD_TESTING=Off -DMIOPEN_ENABLE_AI_KERNEL_TUNING=On -DMIOPEN_ENABLE_AI_IMMED_MODE_FALLBACK=On -DMIOPEN_USE_COMPOSABLEKERNEL=Off -DMIOPEN_USE_MLIR=Off

Some files are lost, they are here (-_-!!!!):
miopen-lost-files.zip

Use command "ninja" to compile it, maybe you will fail when building test, but MIOpen.dll can be got.

[scarsty]

To build rocMILR and composable_kernel on Windows are impossible for me, but I thought they cannot improve the performance obviously.

I have done some benchmarks. For training a simple CNN net, 7900 XTX is slower than RTX 3080. But the inferring seems much faster, even a little faster than RTX 4090D (there might be some errors in my codes).

I've seen that all rocm stack and pytorch support windows is coming Q4 2025 officially.
RDNA4 has "matrix cores"

Let's buy some RTX 50XX before it.

Change

find_package(ROCM 0.7.3 REQUIRED PATHS /opt/rocm)

to

find_package(ROCM REQUIRED PATHS "C:/Program Files/AMD/ROCm/6.2")

You dont need to modify the cmake for this. You can add C:/Program Files/AMD/ROCm/6.2 to the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.

I test the performances of miopen on Windows and Linux, surprisingly that on Linux is worse.

In second, smaller means better.

System	CNN Classify	Tune Full Connect	Unet
Windows	290	236	127
Linux (Fedora)	338	150	133

now, you can compile pytorch etc with rocm7 with https://github.com/ROCm/TheRock
