After Release 5.6, AMD’s “Vega” Architecture will no longer get ROCm updates.

Radeon VII and Radeon PRO VII graphics cards that use AMD’s “Vega” graphics architecture no longer receive support from the ROCm GPU programming software stack. The AMD Instinct MI50 accelerator, Radeon VII client graphics card, and Radeon PRO VII pro-vis graphics card, together known as “gfx906,” will reach EOM (end of maintenance) commencing Q3-2023, which corresponds with the release of ROCm 5.7, according to the release notes of ROCm 5.6. This was discovered by developer “EwoutH” on GitHub. He notes that the Radeon PRO VII and Instinct MI50 accelerator are now available on the market and that gfx906 is only 5 years old. The “Cezanne” desktop CPU, which makes use of an iGPU built on the “Vega” architecture, must be the most recent AMD product to utilize the technology. In Q2 2021, this chip was made available.
