Greetings, Exalted Ones.
I've mentioned this project from ZLUDA's discord community server and came to here.
So I've just jump in want to give my 7800XT for a try, but I have no clue how to do next after the ROCm compile. I do the external-build/pytorch/build_pytorch_windows.sh and not work, the I read lots of comments and issues found the build process are little bit seperate like pytorch, triton and aotriton. How can I do a replica from you guys masterpiece work on gfx 1151?

And if you guys never mind, I recommend Everything from VoidTools to find if some files hard to found.

Target for AMD device: gfx1101 (RDNA3 7800XT)
Target task for me want to test:

PyTorch 2.7.0 cp313
Keras 3
Stable Diffutiion WebUI

Edit:
My PC and myself is full Windows working environment. I moving my device descriptions from closed issue to here.

I would first recommend building ROCm https://github.com/ROCm/TheRock/blob/main/docs/development/windows_support.md#building-therock-from-source before building pytorch. Then, once ROCm is built, note the path <TheRock_dir>/build/dist/rocm and set that as your CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH and then follow the instructions to build pytorch for Windows https://github.com/ROCm/TheRock/blob/main/external-builds/pytorch/README.md#build-pytorch-on-windows-or-on-old-way-in-linux

got it working #651 (comment)!

@TaiXeflar , if you manually tar -xf F:/rocm_1/TheRock/build_2/third-party/boost/boost-sources_fetch/src/boost_1_87_0.tar.bz2 does it work?

Maybe you're hitting the Windows max path length?

@TaiXeflar try installing this wheel :) https://drive.proton.me/urls/4QRV647ZXC#RPyLKsYAOHIv

It seems not :(

PS F:\rocm_1\TheRock\build\third-party\boost\boost-sources_fetch\src> tar xf .\boost_1_87_0.tar.bz2
boost_1_87_0/libs/wave/test/testwave/testfiles/utf8-test-?繕?Ｔ?/: Invalid empty pathname: Unknown error
boost_1_87_0/libs/wave/test/testwave/testfiles/utf8-test-?繕?Ｔ?/file.hpp: Invalid empty pathname: Unknown error
tar.exe: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
PS F:\rocm_1\TheRock\build\third-party\boost\boost-sources_fetch\src>

And I was mentioned Windows have the MAX_PATH_LENGTH issues before, so I've checked Python installation and opened Group Policy Managment Console to enable long paths before start cloning repo.

The root cause turned out to be #684 (comment)

@TaiXeflar , if you're mainly interested in running Pytorch with your hardware I think waiting one week may be smart, as building Pytorch on Windows and some Windows CI problems are being actively worked on right now.

If you don't want to wait (I certainly didn't myself 😉) follow @jammm's instructions above and https://gist.github.com/ScottTodd/cb4f9f5a697cce91084977ed3674a4bd

Yes I don't want to wait as I want put windows rocm pytorch into my master thesis.

scottt May 20, 2025

@TaiXeflar , I sent you a DM invite on Discord. I'll try to help you through your Pytorch build problems.

just in case you didn't notice @scottt, we have the same gpu so my wheel should work for him

@MaximilienLC , kismet!

Very Late Updates

After passed my master degree oral test, finally I can update my whole experience, and the repoducable build process.

Highlights

My stable build is Python 3.13.2.
TheRock always follows at HEAD and no problem when I build it, but sub projects like rocSOLVER can stuck over 40min.
Select multi-arch building have tensile library missing gfx1103 arch tensile library as build error.
Issue [Windows] rocblaslt error: Could not load "TensileLibrary_lazy_gfx1100.dat" #681 pending repair, still need manually copy libs to dist/rocm/bin.
AOTriton on scottt/aotriton branch gfx110x.
AOTriton Images needs to specify the compiled images from scottt's release at version 0.9.2.
Build PyTorch always use build_pytorch_windows.sh.
Discard pytorch_build.py and need to investigate why compile hipcc objects forcing invoke nvcc.
Build torchvision successful.
