Unable to fetch GPU information without ROCm/Drive
Sometimes you did have a AMDGPU but a drive hadn't been installed, in this case the software would fall back to legacy mechanism without rocm command. This might require extra port to connect to the device. A classic output is like this:
amdtop
Output:
gpuinfo_metax_init
No GPU to monitor.
The root reason is that the legacy mode port like:
- hardware-observe -> Reading GPU-relevant informaiton like the name
- system-observe -> Reading the thread
- process-control -> kill the thread, this is used to kill the thread with ease in the UI interface
- mount-observe -> see the mounting point, which is used to better fetch the pcie information
are defaultly forbidden by the snap since this package is not an offical package.
Please DO RUN the following before using:
sudo snap connect amdtop:hardware-observe
sudo snap connect amdtop:system-observe
sudo snap connect amdtop:mount-observe
sudo snap connect amdtop:process-control
