  Description     : Fortran bindings for ROCm and HIP libraries

 hipfort is a library that provides Fortran bindings the ROCm and HIP
 libraries, as well as tooling to help write portable code targeting both
 AMD and NVIDIA GPUs.
 .
 hipfort provides Fortran 2003 and Fortran 2008 bindings for the HIP
 runtime, rocBLAS, hipBLAS, rocSPARSE, hipSPARSE, rocFFT, hipFFT,
 rocRAND, hipRAND, rocSOLVER, and hipSOLVER. Additionally, it provides
 the hipfc compiler wrapper and a Makefile to support a set of standard
 flags and environment variables for building portable Fortran programs
 that use GPU compute.

Fortran remains a popular language for high-performance computing and
bindings for GPU math libraries are useful to enable Fortran users to
more fully utilize modern computing hardware.

This package is part of the AMD ROCm stack and would be maintained by
the Debian ROCm Team.
