Update ROCm version to support newer AMD GPUs (RDNA3/Phoenix APUs) #36

Description

@Fr0stykiller

Hey! The fah-gpu-amd container is using ROCm 5.0.0 from October 2020, which is way too old for newer AMD GPUs. My Radeon 780M (and probably anyone with RDNA3 cards) can't fold on GPU because OpenCL doesn't detect the card.

What's happening:

  • Container: foldingathome/fah-gpu-amd:latest
  • GPU: AMD Radeon 780M (Phoenix/Hawk Point APU)
  • ROCm in container: 5.0.0-49
  • Host: Linux 6.12.48

The GPU shows up in rocm-smi:

GPU  Temp   AvgPwr   SCLK  MCLK     Fan  Perf  PwrCap       VRAM%  GPU%
0    41.0c  15.066W  None  1000Mhz  0%   auto  Unsupported    8%   11%

But OpenCL finds nothing:

Platform Name: AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing
Number of devices: 0

And FAHClient gives up:

WARNING:FS02:No CUDA or OpenCL 1.2+ support detected for GPU slot 02:
gpu:198:0 Phoenix/Hawk Point [Radeon 760M/780M]. Disabling.

ROCm 5.0.0 was released before RDNA3 GPUs existed. These newer cards (780M/760M APUs, RX 7000 series) need at least ROCm 5.7, but ROCm 6.0+ would be even better.
