CLRadeonExtender Disassembler

The CLRadeonExtender provides the disassembler that can disassemble code for the Radeon GPU's based on the GCN 1.0/1.1/1.2/1.4 (AMD VEGA) architecture. Program is called clrxdisasm.

Disassembler can handle the AMD Catalyst(tm) OpenCL(tm) kernel binaries and the GalliumCompute kernel binaries. It displays instructions of the code and optionally structure of the binaries (kernels and their configuration). Output of that program can be used as input to the CLRX assembler if option '--all' will be used.

The disassembler can detect automatically binary format, bitness of the binary.

Invoking the disassembler

The clrxdisasm can be invoked in following way:

clrxdisasm [-mdcCfsHLhar3?] [-g GPUDEVICE] [-a ARCH] [-t VERSION] [--metadata] [--data] [--calNotes] [--config] [--floats] [--hexcode] [--setup] [--HSAConfig] [--HSALayout] [--all] [--raw] [--gpuType=GPUDEVICE] [--arch=ARCH] [--driverVersion=VERSION] [--llvmVersion=VERSION] [--buggyFPLit] [--wave32] [--help] [--usage] [--version] [file...]

Program Options

Following options clrxdisasm can recognize:

  • <-m>, --metadata>

    Print metadata from AMD Catalyst binaries to output. For a AMD Catalyst binaries, disassembler prints internal metadata. For a GalliumCompute binaries disassembler prints argument of the kernel and proginfo entries.

  • -d, --data

    Print data section from binaries. For AMD Catalyst binaries disassembler prints global constant data, and '.data' section for particular kernel executables. For GalliumCompute binaries disassembler prints a global constant data.

  • -c, --calNotes

    Print list of the ATI CAL notes and their content from AMD Catalyst binaries to output.

  • -C, --config

    Print human-readable configuration instead of metadatas, headers and ATI CAL notes.

  • -f, --float

    Print floating point literals in instructions if instructions accept float point values and their has a constant literal. Floating point values will be inside comment.

  • -h, --hexcode

    Print hexadecimal code before disassembled instruction in comment. Hexadecimal code will be printed in 4-byte words.

  • -s, --setup

    Print AMD OpenCL 2.0 kernel setup data.

  • -H, --HSAConfig

    Print AMD OpenCL 2.0 kernel setup configuration as AMD HSA configuration.

  • -L, --HSALayout

    Print AMD OpenCL 2.0 code like Gallium or ROCm: print text section as program code with kernel names.

  • -a, --all

    Enable all options -mdcfh (except -C).

  • -r, --raw

    Treat input as raw code. By default, disassembler assumes that input code is for the GCN1.0 architecture.

  • -g GPUDEVICE, --gpuType=GPUDEVICE

    Choose device type. Device type name is case-insensitive. List of supported GPUs: Baffin, Bonaire, CapeVerde, Carrizo, Dummy, Ellesmere, Fiji, GFX700, GFX701, GFX801, GFX802, GFX803, GFX804, GFX900, GFX901, GFX902, GFX903, GFX904, GFX905, GFX906, GFX907, Goose, Hainan, Hawaii, Horse, Iceland, Kalindi, Mullins, Oland, Pitcairn, Polaris10, Polaris11, Polaris12, Polaris20, Polaris21, Polaris22, Raven, Spectre, Spooky, Stoney, Tahiti, Tonga, Topaz, Vega10, Vega11, Vega12, Vega20, GFX1000, GFX1010, GFX1011, Navi10.

  • -A ARCH, --arch=ARCH

    Choose device architecture. Architecture name is case-insensitive. List of supported architectures: SI, VI, CI, VEGA, VEGA20, Navi, NaviDL, GFX6, GFX7, GFX8, GFX9, GFX906, GFX10, GFX1011, GCN1.0, GCN1.1, GCN1.2, GCN1.4, GCN1.4.1, GCN1.5, GCN1.5.1.

  • -t VERSION, --driverVersion=VERSION

    Choose AMD Catalyst OpenCL driver version for which binaries are generated. Version can retrieved from clinfo program that display field 'Driver version' where version is. Version is number in that form: MajorVersion*100 + MinorVersion. Used for AMD OpenCL 2.0 binaries.

  • --llvmVersion=VERSION

    Choose LLVM version that generates binaries. Version is number in that form: MajorVersion*100 + MinorVersion.

  • --buggyFPLit

    Choose old and buggy floating point literals rules (to 0.1.2 version) for compatibility.

  • -3, --wave32

    Set wavefront size as 32 elements (apply only for GFX10 devices).

  • -?, --help

    Print help and list of the options.

  • --usage

    Print usage for this program

  • --version

    Print version

Output

clrxdisasm prints a disassembled code to standard output and errors to standard error output. clrxdisasm returns 0 if succeeded, otherwise it returns 1 and prints the error messages to stderr

Sample usages

Following sample usages:

  • clrxdisasm -aC source.clo

    Disassemble binary file source.clo. Print addresess, opcodes, metadata in human readable form.

  • clrxdisasm -a source.clo

    Disassemble binary file source.clo. Print addresess, opcodes, metadata in machine readable form (enough rarely used).

  • clrxdisasm -aC -t240400 source.clo

    Disassemble binary file source.clo including AMD driver version 240400. Print addresess, opcodes, metadata in human readable form.

  • clrxdisasm -aCHL -t240400 source.clo

    Disassemble binary file AMD OpenCL 2.0 source.clo including AMD driver version 240400 in new HSA layout form (like ROCm). Print addresess, opcodes, metadata in human readable HSA config form.

  • clrxdisasm -aC -gBonaire source.clo
