Simple application to read current clocks of ATi Radeon cards (xf86-video-ati, xf86-video-amdgpu).

xf86-video-ati and xf86-video-amdgpu driver

Install and run radeon-profile-daemon (https://github.com/marazmista/radeon-profile-daemon) for using this app as normal user. Otherwise, the app needs to be run with root privileges to change the power profiles (sometimes clocks readings too). You can create a text file containing username ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/radeon-profile under /etc/sudoers.d/radeon-profile.

Here is a tip to run the app as a normal user, but note that this involves changing permissions to system files: http://bit.ly/1dvQMhS

Functionality

• Monitoring of basic GPU parameters (frequencies, voltages, usage, temperature, fan speed)
• DPM profiles and power levels
• Fan control (HD 7000+), definition of multiple custom curves or fixed speed
• Overclocking (amdgpu) (Wattman, Overdrive, PowerPlay etc)
• Per app profiles/Event definitions (i.e. change fan profile when temp above defined or set DPM to high when selected binary executed)
• Define binaries to run with set of environment variablees (i.e. GALLIUM_HUD, MESA, LIBGL etc)

Dependencies

• Qt >= 5.6 (qt5-base and qt5-charts) (On Debian/Ubuntu: libqt5charts5-dev)
• libxrandr
• libdrm (for amdgpu, >= 2.4.79, more recent, the better)
• recent kernel (for amdgpu >= 4.12, more recent, the better)
• radeon card

For full functionality:

• glxinfo - info about OpenGL, mesa
• xdriinfo - driver info
• xrandr - connected displays

Build

git clone https://github.com/marazmista/radeon-profile.git && cd radeon-profile/radeon-profile
qmake && make 

To install to root for all users to be able to run radeon-profile:

sudo make install

The resulting binary is ./target/radeon-profile

For Ubuntu 17.04, qt5-charts isn't available:

• Use qtchooser -l to list available profiles
• Use qmake -qt=[profile from qtchooser] to specify Qt root, or download and install Qt 5.9.1 from https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.9/5.9.1/
• Make a qt5opt.conf in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qtchooser/ containing:

/opt/Qt5.9.1/5.9.1/gcc_64/bin
/opt/Qt5.9.1/5.9.1
