Running llama.cpp on RX 480

Even though the RX 480 is not a very recent GPU, the 8 GB VRAM are quite decent and make it possible to run LLMs much faster than with the CPU.

To make it running, three steps are necessary: Installing vulkan, building shaderc and finally building lama.cpp including the vulkan backend (assuming git, a c compiler, cmake, ninja, etc. are installed on a sufficiently recent Ubuntu).

Step 1: Installing Vulkan

Run sudo apt install libvulkan-dev vulkan-tools glslang-tools.

Introduction

In this post, I will provide the solution that worked on my system on how to install Radeon Open Compute (ROCm) on Arch (linux- 6.19.11.arch1-1) for RX 6900 XT (Should work on other 6000 series and more recent). ROCm is an open-source software platform that allows GPU-accelerated computation. This tool is a prerequist to use GPU Acceleration on TensorFlow or PyTorch.

Prerequisites

Building on Ubuntu 23.04

You have 2 options, use the script descrived bellow or follow the instrutions

script in this gist if you want the source code

wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Vertecedoc4545/6e54487f07a1888b656b656c0cdd9764/raw/2c5e8ccb428fc331307e2f653cab88174c051310/build-ubuntu-23.sh
chmod +x build-ubuntu-23.sh
./build-ubuntu-23.sh

Setup ZSH

This gist will guide you through to setup starship along with zsh suggestions and zsh syntax highlight for your codespaces.
