Thanks to Cordell for the notification. While I'm working on other packages,
I think I can help uploading some basic packages like roct-thunk-interface.
Currently the software stack version is 5.1.0 .

Shall we bump the version or stay at 5.1.0 for a while?
To my knowledge, there is a slight mix of various versions,
which may not be the recommended approach, but it seems to work
okay.  I suppose it would be worth at least aligning the
upstream versions.  There is also the compiler support that
might need to be taken into consideration, but that something
that will crop up as there will be attempts to build the
software.

I think it's fine either way. The mathlibs for ROCm N are often built and tested with the compiler and runtime from ROCm N-1. The rocm-cmake package is the only one that _needs_ to be updated to continue working our way up the dependency tree. Of course, there's still more cleanup to do on rocm-hipamd [1], and it might not hurt to bump the version while fixing up a few of those issues.

Sincerely,
Cory Bloor

[1]: It's usable, but has sharp edges. The changes to HIP_COMPILER need to be removed from 0005-clang-14.patch; changing HIP_CXX_COMPILER should be sufficient. We also might want to patch --hip-version=<version> directly into the HIPCFLAGS / HIPCXXFLAGS in hipcc until we can figure out how to get that info to clang properly.
