AMD Radeon™ ProRender is a powerful physically-based path traced rendering engine that enables creative professionals to produce stunningly photorealistic images.
RPR context initialization for Northstar gives -4 error, RPR_ERROR_SHADER_COMPILATION .
Looks like shaders for rocm 6.1.3 has some difference compare to rocm 5.7.3 .
For now, ubuntu amdgpu drivers uses rocm 6.1.3 .
Possible solutions of this issue:
Short-term solution: Add pre-compiled shaders for rocm 6.1.3
Long-term solution: Add fallback mechanism to compile shaders on specific machine (fallback mode).
It is always cat and mouse game to add pre-compiled shaders for new GPU's, for new ROCM version and MAYbe for different platfroms.
