Bug#960981: ITP: rocr-runtime -- HSA Runtime API and runtime for ROCm

[Norbert Preining]

Hi Matthias,

> Packaging ROCm requires a forked LLVM.  Will you package that fork, and

Thanks for bringing this up. Up to now all the ITP don't require the
forked llvm. We have one repository (rocm-hip) in preparation for which
the llvm-fork is necessary. And there are other's I am preparing.

Our plan (at the moment basically Mo Zho and me) was to package it into
a separate directory /usr/lib/llvm/roc/ (like Gentoo does) or into any
similar place.

But I am more than open for help with the llvm-roc build, since this not
even finishes on my computer without blowing it up ATM ...

Best

Norbert
