  Description     : portable interface for extended general matrix-matrix operations

hipBLASLt is a library for general matrix-matrix operations that extends
the traditional BLAS interface to support more options controlling data
layout, data types, and algorithm selection. The hipBLASLt library is
implemented in the HIP programming language and is supplemented by tuned
assembly kernels.

The hipBLASLt library helps users port code using cuBLASLt to the AMD
ROCm platform. It is used by PyTorch for accelerating operations on
MI200 and MI300 GPU hardware.

The package is part of AMD's ROCm stack and would be maintained under
the Debian AI team umbrella.
