I also attempted to package ROCM on musl. Specifically, packaging it for Alpine Linux.

It truly is a nightmare to build the whole thing. I got past the custom LLVM fork and a dozen other packages, but eventually decided it had been too much of a time sink.

I’m using llama.cpp with its vulkan support and it’s good enough for my uses. Vulkan so already there and just works. It’s probably on your host too, since so many other things rely on it anyway.

That said, I’d be curious to look at your build recipes. Maybe it can help power through the last bits of the Alpine port.

Keep an eye out for a stable rocm PR to stagex in the next week or so if all goes well.
