Hi Trinayan, I have almost exclusively installed ROCm on machines without attached GPUs of any kind (for running in gem5), so yes it is not necessary to have an AMD GPU installed. As Tony recommended, you should definitely update the paths in apu_se.py. For example, if you install ROCm in /opt/rocm/, then you need to update the LD_LIBRARY_PATH lines starting here ( https://gem5.googlesource.com/amd/gem5/+/agutierr/master-gcn3-staging/configs/example/apu_se.py#458) accordingly (including where you have unwind and gcc installed). From the snippet you showed me, it appears that your problems are related to this.
After fixing this, you will potentially run into the problems Tsung faced, but for now this is definitely the first thing you need to fix. Potentially related: I have never tried installing the ROCm stuff via apt-get like Joe recommended so I don't know if that will work or not. It may end up that you'll need to manually installed them by checking out the repos on Github (e.g., https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/hcc) and specifically checkout out the roc-1.6.x branches like the instructions specify. But for now please update the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables like Tony specified and we'll see what happens.
