⚠️  This is a breaking change release aimed at simplifying the build script and make the crate usage more straightforward. There is no new bindings in this release. ⚠️

  1. There is no need to select a crate feature anymore, simply adding the crate as a dependency is enough and the build script will detect the install location of HIP. If you have a feature enabled then an error message will ask you to remove it when you compile.

  2. We use the hipconfig binary to detect the HIP installation. Make sure that you have this executable installed and available in your PATH.

  3. To choose a specific version of HIP in the case you have multiple versions installed on your system, simply set the environment variable HIP_PATH to point to the installation base directory. You can verify that the correct version is enabled by executing hipconfig --version.

  4. Versioning scheme has been updated to follow the same version of HIP with two additional digits for our own usage. Note that HIP version is somewhat different than the ROCm version. The HIP version is of the form 6.4.43482 where the major and minor versions are from ROCm version and the patch version is specific to HIP and is monotonic. It uniquely identify the version of HIP. This crate version is 6.4.4348200 corresponds to the ROCm version 6.4.x with HIP patch 43482 and 00 means that this is the version for this HIP patch.
