I'm trying to find more information about these binary blobs [1].The sources can be found in amd_blit_kernel.cpp [2]. I'm not entirely sure how to assemble SP3 shaders to reproduce those binary blobs, but I suppose it must be possible given that the sources long predate the blobs.
It was pointed out to me that these blobs were merely moved to a different header in ROCm 5.7. They date back to ROCm 1.2 [3] and were included in rocr when it was originally packaged for Debian [4]. As mentioned, the sources are available, although I'm still a bit unclear on how the provided sources can be assembled into the precompiled binaries.
If this is a problem, it affects all versions of rocr-runtime that have ever been packaged for Debian. As such, I will proceed with the update to ROCm 5.7 as it does not introduce any new issues.
