Motivation

Enable run-time thresholding of Symmetric. Improve run-time threshold for CE.

Technical Details

Env var rename: RCCL_CE_AR_MAX_MSG_BYTES → RCCL_CE_AR_2SHOT_MAX_BYTES.
The name now accurately reflects that this ceiling applies specifically to the two-shot (non-registered) AllReduce path, not
to all CE AllReduce variants.

New runtime threshold overrides (all default to -1 = use arch table):

  • RCCL_CE_COLL_MAX_BYTES — upper bound for non-AR CE collectives (AllGather, AllToAll)
  • RCCL_CE_COLL_MIN_BYTES — lower bound for non-AR CE collectives
  • RCCL_CE_AR_2SHOT_MIN_BYTES — lower bound for CE AllReduce two-shot window
  • RCCL_SYM_K_MAX_BYTES — upper bound for symmetric kernel selection
  • RCCL_SYM_K_MIN_BYTES — lower bound for symmetric kernel selection

These are wired into rcclCeRegMaxTab, rcclCeNonRegMaxTab, rcclSymMaxR2CapTab, rcclSymMinR2CapTab, and rcclCeNonRegMinTab respectively.

DDA LL128: Removed rcclParamDdaLL() == 0 guards inside ddaLL128ArOneShotEligible

and ddaLL128ArTwoShotEligible — these conditions are already checked by rcclDdaLL128ArEligible before dispatching into either function.

AllGather dispatch non-registered CE branch fix

Before this PR the AllGather CE-scratch branch fired when either
rcclForceCeScratchEnabled was true or the message fit the size window, making the two conditions alternatives:

  • Now RCCL_FORCE_CE is required for enablement and cannot be bypassed by tuning thresholds
  • CTA Policy Zero can bypass thresholds

AllToAll CE registered guard: Added a2aCeRegWindow upper-bound check for the AllToAll CE registered path, preventing CE from being selected at message sizes beyond the arch-table ceiling.

ncclCeAvailable now has Float8 and ncclFloat8e5m2 checks for AllReduce

Test Changes

Tests Removed: UseCeAllReduce_MsgTooLargeReturnsFalse, DefaultOff_2Shot_Gfx1250_Isolated

UseCeAllReduce_MsgTooLargeReturnsFalse was a standalone test that called
rcclUseCeAr2Shot directly with a count exceeding the default 256 MiB cap and
expected it to return false. The test was removed because the message size upper
bound is no longer enforced inside rcclUseCeAr2Shot itself — it is checked
upstream in rcclSelectAllReduce via the twoShotWindow gate. Calling the helper
directly in isolation no longer exercises the right code path.

DefaultOff_2Shot_Gfx1250_Isolated was a parameterized case inside
RcclUseCeAllReduce_Isolated that asserted CE two-shot is off by default on
gfx1250 (because ceNonRegMax[AR]=0 in the gfx1250 table). The case was removed
because the fake rcclGetArchThresholds in the unit test environment always returns
nullptr, so the test was not actually exercising the gfx1250 table at all —
it was testing the null-table fallback path, which is covered by the existing
DisabledByDefault_Isolated case.

MessageTooLargeRejected_Isolated (inside RcclUseCeAllReduce_Isolated) was
similarly removed. It tested the size rejection via rcclUseCeAr2Shot with
baseEnv set, but the max-byte enforcement moved out of that helper into the
selector. The case would no longer have rejected the oversized message at the
intended point.

Tests Added: CE AllReduce Two-Shot Window Boundary Coverage

Issue Tracking

JIRA ID: AICOMRCCL-2422

Test Plan

  • CeAllReduceEligibilityTests (RcclCeNonRegMaxTab suite) — unit tests for the threshold query functions; updated to exercise both max and min bound overrides via the new env vars
  • wrap-test.cc host microtests — rcclSelectAllReduce integration path with forced env vars
  • CeInternalMPITests / CeMPITests — end-to-end CE AllReduce correctness under threshold overrides
  • Manual: all_reduce_perf -b 1K -e 8G -f 2 -g 8 with RCCL_CE_AR_2SHOT_MIN_BYTES /RCCL_CE_AR_2SHOT_MAX_BYTES set to verify window shifting takes effect and wrong=0

  • projects/rccl/src/enqueue/enqueue.cc:4464 (Low) ceAgSymRegistered was not updated alongside AllGather branch #3, so the 'selection and dispatch agree' comment at enqueue.cc:4464 is now false The comment at enqueue.cc:4464-4466 says ceAgSymRegistered is the same predicate AllGather Branch #3 reports, but Branch #3 now also requires CTAPolicy & ZERO (rccl_wrap.cc:1685) while the twin at enqueue.cc:4467-4470 does not. The twin is live at enqueue.cc:4514 whenever decisionValid is false, which collectives.cc:159 and :189 both reach. Could the twin pick up the same term, or the comment be corrected?
  • projects/rccl/CHANGELOG.md:32 (Low) CHANGELOG.md:32 still names rcclCeAr2ShotMax(), the function this PR deletes CHANGELOG.md:32 still says the CE 2-shot cap is resolved at runtime via rcclCeAr2ShotMax(), which this PR deletes. It is the only remaining reference to that name in the tree. Could it be repointed at rcclCeNonRegMaxTab(table, ncclFuncAllReduce)?

Bottom line: Worth settling before approval: rcclCeNonRegMaxTab and extAlgoArchTable are declared in no header, so enqueue.cc:4447 does not compile.

Do we really need start and end thresholds for env variables?
Perf debugging and tuning are 2 separate things. Tuning requires a start and end infra which you should have in your arch table. Env variables are for debugging perf.
So why not just make RCCL_FORCE_CE and RCCL_FORCE_2SHOT_CE work for us to understand their perf. At the same time, surface the selection correctly at rccl-tests and log why it wasn't forced for whatever reason. The staging buffer size requirement and environment are OK.

Do we really need start and end thresholds for env variables? Perf debugging and tuning are 2 separate things. Tuning requires a start and end infra which you should have in your arch table. Env variables are for debugging perf. So why not just make RCCL_FORCE_CE and RCCL_FORCE_2SHOT_CE work for us to understand their perf. At the same time, surface the selection correctly at rccl-tests and log why it wasn't forced for whatever reason. The staging buffer size requirement and environment are OK.

I agree with needing env. vars for debugging instead of tuning.
PR https://github.com/ROCm/rocm-systems/pull/13098/changes addresses this for other algos.
I didn't do it for CE, because that is what -x 2 will do, force CE everywhere so an env. var for force-CE seemed redundant.
RCCL_FORCE_CE has a different use currently for enabling CE when symmetric buffers aren't there, so I didn't want to change how it is used.
I see your point with the min/max env. vars seeming like an overkill while an force-env would be sufficient.
However, when I did the tuning infra, I wanted to allow this flexibility to give a way out of current tuning if needed without having to force a particular algo everywhere.
We shouldn't need these env. vars outside of debugging, but they seemed like a nice fail-safe to have without much overhead in the code.
They may also help with unit-testing and eval of other tuning tools.
They fit well with current infra, since they just override the tuning-table threshold in one routine, so we can easily remove them as well.

…ts (#13819)

JIRA ID: AICOMRCCL-2826

## What
Fixes the host-test failures on develop: 5 tests in
`rccl-UnitTestsMicroDdaColl` and 1 in `rccl-UnitTestsMicroRocmwrap`.

## How
#12386 removed the `RCCL_DDA_LL` check from the fabric LL128 eligibility
functions (LL128 is gated by `RCCL_DDA_LL128` upstream). #13585, merged
a few hours earlier, still expected `RCCL_DDA_LL=0` to reject LL128. The
tests now assert `RCCL_DDA_LL=0` leaves LL128 eligible.

Develop also reworded the cuMem driver-version warning ("requires ROCm
>= 7.12 or the 7.0.2.x backport"); `RocmwrapMicrotest` now looks for
that text.

## Test Plan
`rccl-UnitTestsMicroDdaColl` 271/271 and `rccl-UnitTestsMicroRocmwrap`
35/35, each 20x shuffled clean (standalone build). Re-adding the old
`RCCL_DDA_LL` gate fails the new test.

alex-breslow-amd pushed a commit that referenced this pull request Oct 21, 2026
## Motivation

`ncclCommRevoke` and `ncclCommAbort` set `abortFlag` so in-flight
kernels can drain. Generic device primitives already sample that flag,
but the standalone DDA kernels did not.

On gfx1250, an incomplete DDA collective (for example, a rank that never
launches its AllReduce) left the other ranks spinning on peer flags or
barrier mailboxes that would never arrive. Revoke and abort then hung in
stream sync
(`RevokeMPITest.IncompleteCollective_Revoke_Shrink_Collective`). DDA IPC
on gfx942/gfx950 has the same shape in `IpcGpuBarrier`.

## Technical Details

Every DDA wait now polls `comm->abortFlagDev`, at the same cadence as
`checkAbort` (`kDdaSpinsBeforeCheckAbort`, in the new
`dda_kernel_params.h`). This covers the LL and LL128 flag waits in
AllReduce (one-shot and two-shot), AllGather, ReduceScatter and
AlltoAll, and the fabric and IPC GPU barriers. Launchers pass a
`dda::common::DdaKernelParams` by value to the kernels, wait helpers and
barriers. It holds the abort flag today, and later per-launch values go
there rather than as extra kernel arguments.

On abort a wait gives up rather than returning early from the kernel
where that would skip shared work: polls `break` so the LL epoch update
and `__syncthreads` still run. The LL two-shot AllReduce uses a sticky
abort, skipping the remaining waits once the flag is seen, because an
early return after each unrolled wait nearly doubled the 8-rank kernel
and slowed the single-node two-shot path. A thread that has aborted does
not publish its phase-2 sums, which are partial, so a peer that has not
seen the abort cannot accept them as the reduced shard.

`IpcGpuBarrier` and `FabricGpuBarrier` keep a sticky `aborted_` for the
rest of the kernel. Once a signaling lane gives up a put or a wait, the
block signals no later barrier, so a late peer cannot pair its earlier
flag with this block's next one and read a two-shot shard this rank
never finished. The signaling lanes all sit in wave 0, so they share the
result through `__any`; `FabricGpuBarrier` uses `__syncthreads_or` when
the clique is wider than one wave. This replaces a load of the
pinned-host abort flag before every put.

DDA stays enabled when revoke is used, because revoke has to stop
kernels that are already running. A collective issued on a revoked comm
is rejected: DDA, CE 2-shot and GIN-SDMA return from the collective
before `ncclEnqueueCheck`, so `rcclCollectiveMustUseEnqueuePath` now
sends a revoked comm through enqueue, which returns `ncclInvalidUsage`
as `nccl.h` documents. Without this, a collective on the revoked parent
would run DDA again on mailboxes left with unconsumed flags.

A parent comm shrunk with `NCCL_SHRINK_ABORT` stops using DDA
(`comm->ddaDisabledAfterAbort`, checked in `rcclDdaEnabled`). The abort
can leave ranks with different LL epochs and unconsumed barrier mailbox
slots, so a later DDA collective on that parent could hang or return a
peer's stale data. The shrunk child does not share the parent's
resources and is not affected.

Tests (the MPI cases are in `RevokeMPITests.cpp`):

- `RevokeDdaMPITest.IncompleteCollective_*` (11 cases, gfx1250): one
rank skips a DDA collective, the rest revoke and shrink. They cover LL
and LL128 one-shot and two-shot AllReduce, the VMM barrier, and LL/LL128
AllGather, ReduceScatter and AlltoAll. Each case first confirms through
`rcclGetCollImplInfo` that the intended DDA path is selected, and after
the revoke checks that the same collective on the revoked parent returns
`ncclInvalidUsage`.
- `RevokeDdaIpcMPITest.IncompleteCollective_DdaIpc*` (5 cases,
gfx942/gfx950, 8 ranks): the same pattern for DDA IPC AllReduce (flat
and the three-barrier tree kernel), AllGather, ReduceScatter and
AlltoAll.
- `AbortDdaMPITest.IncompleteCollective_*` (5 cases): the same pattern
with `ncclCommAbort`, for LL one-shot and two-shot AllReduce, and
AllGather, ReduceScatter and AlltoAll LL.
- `ShrinkAbort_DisablesDdaOnParent` in both `RevokeDdaMPITest` and
`RevokeDdaIpcMPITest`: after `NCCL_SHRINK_ABORT`, the parent no longer
selects DDA and the child's AllReduce succeeds.
- `DdaIpcGpuBarrierOrdering.AbortedBarrierStaysSilent` (one GPU): a
barrier that gave up on abort must not signal the next one after late
peers drain the first. It fails with the sticky `aborted_` removed.
- `Rcclwrap.EnqueueGuards_RevokedForcesEnqueue`: a revoked comm takes
the enqueue path.
- The DDA fabric launcher microtests check that `comm->abortFlagDev`
reaches the kernel; the mock comm now carries a non-null flag so the
check can fail.

Launch, abort and stream-drain results are voted across ranks, and
post-revoke waits are bounded, so a failure on one rank fails every rank
instead of hanging. The test runner configs for MI300, MI355X and MI455
include the new cases.

### Known gaps

These are out of scope for this PR and tracked as follow-ups:

- **`ncclCommRevoke` and `NCCL_SHRINK_ABORT` with a stuck DDA kernel.**
Both set `abortFlag`, sync only `hostStream` and `deviceStream`, then
clear the flag (`commRevokeAsync` and `ncclCommShrink`). DDA kernels run
on the user stream, which `deviceStream` is not ordered after outside
graph capture, so a stuck kernel that does not poll the flag inside that
window keeps spinning. In practice the window is long enough for the
poll (every `kDdaSpinsBeforeCheckAbort` spins), which is why the revoke
tests pass, but it is not guaranteed. Native single-stream kernels and
NCCL upstream have the same window. `ncclCommAbort` leaves the flag set
and is not affected.
- **DDA stays off on a parent shrunk with `NCCL_SHRINK_ABORT`.** Turning
it back on needs a cross-rank resync of the LL epochs and barrier
mailboxes.
- **Graphs captured before the abort.** The DDA gate applies at enqueue,
so a graph that captured a DDA kernel before the abort still replays it.
- **Kernels that start after the flag is cleared.** A DDA kernel that is
queued behind other user-stream work and only starts after
`ncclCommRevoke` or `NCCL_SHRINK_ABORT` clears `abortFlag` never sees
the abort, and hangs if a peer is missing.

## Issue Tracking

JIRA ID: ROCM-33096 (gfx1250, DDA fabric), ROCM-32381 (gfx942, DDA IPC).

## Test Plan

Run each `RevokeDdaMPITest` case in its own process, as the runner
configs do. In one process the first case caches `RCCL_DDA_LL` and the
LL sub-thresholds, so later `MpiEnvGuard`s have no effect and some cases
skip. `AbortDdaMPITest.*` sets no overrides and can run in one process.

- `mpirun -np 4 ./rccl-UnitTestsMPI --gtest_filter=<case>` for each
`RevokeDdaMPITest`, `RevokeMPITest` and `RevokeNonBlockingMPITest` case
in the `revoke_mpi_tests_4rank` group (for example
`--gtest_filter=RevokeDdaMPITest.IncompleteCollective_DdaVmmBarrier`),
and `--gtest_filter='AbortDdaMPITest.*'`.
- The same MPI cases at 8 ranks across two nodes (`mpirun -np 8 --host
<nodeA>:4,<nodeB>:4 ...`).
- `mpirun -np 8 ./rccl-UnitTestsMPI
--gtest_filter=RevokeDdaIpcMPITest.<case>`, one per process, on 8
gfx942/gfx950 GPUs, plus the revoke, shrink, abort and grow suites of
`mi300x_mellanox_ib.json`.
- `./rccl-UnitTestsFixtures --gtest_filter='DdaIpcGpuBarrierOrdering.*'`
and `./rccl-UnitTestsFixturesDebug
--gtest_filter='Rcclwrap.EnqueueGuards_*'`.
- Host microtests: `rccl-UnitTestsMicroDdaColl` and
`rccl-UnitTestsMicroDda`.
- rccl-tests with data checking (`-c 1`) for AllReduce, AllGather,
ReduceScatter and AlltoAll on one and two nodes, plus two-node AlltoAll
and ReduceScatter with `RCCL_DDA_LL128_THRESHOLD=67108864`.
`NCCL_DEBUG_SUBSYS=COLL` logs confirm the DDA path at each size.
- rccl-tests performance against the develop base on one and two nodes:
the four collectives from 1 KB to 64 MB (32 MB on two nodes), plus
AllReduce forced onto the LL two-shot kernel
(`RCCL_DDA_LL_ONESHOT_THRESHOLD=0`).

## Test Result

**gfx942, DDA IPC** (8x MI300X, one node, ROCm 7.13.0 rc2, DebugFast,
`7bb78ac42da`):

- The revoke, shrink, abort and grow suites of
`mi300x_mellanox_ib.json`: 62 pass, 2 fail and 19 skip on this hardware,
including every `RevokeDdaIpcMPITest.IncompleteCollective_*` case and
`DdaIpcGpuBarrierOrdering.*`.
`RevokeDdaIpcMPITest.ShrinkAbort_DisablesDdaOnParent`, added after that
run, passes on its own. The 2 failures are
`SymAbort_Kernel.LLAllToAll_AbortReleasesKernel` and
`SymAbort_Kernel.LsaBarrier_AbortReleasesKernel`, which time out in
communicator setup on develop as well.
- `Rcclwrap.EnqueueGuards_*` passes. With the sticky barrier abort or
the revoked-comm divert reverted, `AbortedBarrierStaysSilent`,
`EnqueueGuards_RevokedForcesEnqueue` and the IPC AllReduce revoke cases
fail.
- Host microtests: `rccl-UnitTestsMicroDda` passes 51 of 51.
`rccl-UnitTestsMicroDdaColl` passes 266; 5 LL128 eligibility tests fail
on develop as well, after #12386 removed the `RCCL_DDA_LL` gate from
LL128 eligibility.
- With the barrier fix applied on `cc2700e596d`, rccl-tests `-c 1`
reports 0 wrong values for all four collectives on DDA IPC, and
performance against `cc2700e596d` is within noise from 1 KB to 8 MB (3
reps).

**gfx1250, DDA fabric** (4 GPUs per node, `ctheliosp-rck-g02-j11-12`
alone and with `j11-11`, one MNNVL fabric clique):

- At `65410fcff30` (the barrier fix, before the revoked-comm divert and
the new tests), 80 of 86 cases in the revoke, shrink and abort suites
pass on one and two nodes. Of the 6 failures, 3 two-node cases did not
start (`ORTE was unable to reliably start one or more daemons`), 2 are
the `SymAbort_Kernel` timeouts above, and 1 is a stale
`SymCheckMode_Registration` filter name in the mi455 config on develop.
rccl-tests `-c 1` reports 0 wrong values in every run that completed.
- `7bb78ac42da` is not yet tested on gfx1250: the nodes moved to a new
ROCm build mid-run and are now in use. Results to follow.
- Earlier measurements against develop `dfb3f8c9e28` (median latency, 2%
threshold with non-overlapping ranges):
- At `134defe6cc6`, AllReduce forced onto the LL two-shot kernel is 3–6%
slower (about 1–1.4 µs) from 64 KB to 2 MB, on one and two nodes. At
default thresholds this kernel is used at 2 MB only.
- Two-node ReduceScatter on DDA fabric LL is 2–3.4% slower from 32 KB to
2 MB; on DDA fabric LL128 it is 5–7% faster at 4–8 MB and about 4%
faster at 16–32 MB.
- Everything else is within noise, apart from single-point 3%
differences: one-node AllReduce 2 KB slower, two-node AllGather 32 KB
faster and AlltoAll 2 KB slower.
- With the two-shot review fixes (`8fecb7a64bb`), the LL two-shot
AllReduce is within -1.5% to +0.2% of `134defe6cc6` at every size from
64 KB to 2 MB, on one node (4 ranks, 5 reps) and two nodes (8 ranks, 3
reps).

pmoutsias-amd added a commit that referenced this pull request Nov 3, 2026
…the RCCL 2.32.3 for ROCm 10.3.0 (Unreleased) section (#14929)

This PR does two things to `projects/rccl/CHANGELOG.md`.

1. Removes the duplicate `## RCCL 2.31.2 for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)`
heading. #13544 removed it, and #13128 brought it back. The section is
not a pure copy: 48 of its entries have no identical copy elsewhere. 47
of them are folded into `## RCCL 2.32.3 for ROCm 10.2.0` instead of
being deleted, and the 48th is the older wording of the
`RCCL_CE_AR_STAGING_BYTES` entry, which is dropped in favor of the newer
one. Where the same entry appeared in both sections, one copy is kept.
2. Moves the entries below, which sit in release sections but whose code
was merged to develop after the `rocm-systems` commit that TheRock
`release/therock-10.2` pins (`ded49fd`) and is not in that commit. This
moves 53 of them into `## RCCL 2.32.3 for ROCm 10.3.0 (Unreleased)`,
under the matching subsections.

Not moved: 10 entries that were attributed to #13544 (the CHANGELOG-only
PR that last touched them), so the code PR could not be traced. They
stay in the 10.2.0 section and are unverified, so the RCCL owners should
confirm them. They begin: `RCCL_TDM_LL128_ENABLE`, `Ll128TdmStoreTest`,
the TDM reduction path for SIMPLE, Anvil SDMA strong GIN signals, VA GIN
signals on Anvil SDMA, `NCCL_P2P_DISABLE=1` on shared topology nodes,
queue evictions at process exit, multi-receive `irecv` with
`NCCL_IB_USE_INLINE=1`, Anvil SDMA signal cells across logical contexts,
and GIN signal shadow sizing.

- #13328 (merged 2026-10-20,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_BCM_LINKS_PATH`: fallback directory path for Broadcom PEX890xx
multi-host switch inter-switch-link topology. On systems where a single
physical PEX switch is partitioned across multiple CPU domains (upstream
ports), RCCL needs to know which ports share the same switch so it can
classify cross-partition PCIe paths as `PXB` instead of `PHB` and enable
GDR across them. The `switch_discovery` kernel module exposes this via
sysfs (`/sys/kernel/pci_switch_link/virtual_switch_links`); when that
path is not available, RCCL reads the same directory layout from
`RCCL_BCM_LINKS_PATH`. The companion userspace tool
`rccl_bcm_isl_discover.sh` discovers the switch groups by reading the
PCIe Device Serial Number (DSN) from extended config space (vendor
`1000`, device `c030`) and populates this directory.
- #12742 (merged 2026-10-18,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `NCCL_GIN_MLOPART`: allows GIN on MLO/CPX partitions. A partition
reaches xGMI and the network over the physical device's paths, so GIN is
as available to a partition as to the whole GPU. By default a
single-node partitioned communicator keeps GIN, and one spanning several
nodes does not, because past one node admitting a partition also reaches
the hierarchical Copy Engine path. Set `1` to allow GIN on partitions on
any number of nodes, or `0` to restore the previous partition exclusion.
- #3894 (merged 2026-10-16, and
its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3 for
ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `NCCL_TREE_COMPACT` (default `0`): builds the inter-node trees with
a half-interleave node remapping, for jobs whose nodes are ordered by
network domain. Both trees keep cross-domain hops at the leaves only
when the nodes split evenly into two domains; with an uneven split, the
first tree does so when the first domain holds at least half of the
nodes, and the second tree still crosses domains. All ranks in a
communicator must use the same value; initialization fails with
`ncclInvalidUsage` otherwise.
- #12856 (merged 2026-10-15,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_FABRIC_TELEMETRY_ENABLE` (default `0`): samples every amd-smi
fabric telemetry category for the GPUs this process opens communicators
on and logs the counters that moved, plus a closing report over the
whole sampled span when a device's last communicator is destroyed.
Diagnostic only, and off by default. Also needs `RCCL_USE_AMD_SMI_LIB=1`
and `render`-group access to the IFoE config character device; without
either, RCCL logs why telemetry was skipped and initialization
continues.
- #12856 (merged 2026-10-15,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3

> * `RCCL_FABRIC_TELEMETRY_INTERVAL_MS` (default `1000`): sampling
period for `RCCL_FABRIC_TELEMETRY_ENABLE`, clamped to a 100 ms floor and
a one-hour ceiling. A non-positive value disables telemetry entirely.
- #12573 (merged 2026-10-14,

LSA (`AllGather_RailRing_LsaST`): a GIN ring over the rails team moves
data between nodes and LSA stores broadcast it to the other GPUs in each
node.
- #14140 (merged 2026-11-01,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * Hierarchical symmetric `ncclAllGather` for partition mode in gfx1250
scale-up domain using LSA (`AllGater_HierLsaST`): each rank stores its
data once to its counterpart partition on every other GPU, which
forwards it to the other partitions there, so data crosses to each GPU
once instead of once per partition.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `NCCL_GIN_ALLREDUCE_GFX1250_ENABLE` (default `0`): opt in to
GinScatter AllReduce on gfx1250 for symmetric sum messages from 64 MiB
through 4 GiB. Left off, gfx1250 keeps the pre-existing AllReduce
selectors.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `NCCL_GIN_ALLREDUCE_SCRATCH_BYTES` (default 512 MiB): GinScatter
incoming scratch. `0` skips the allocation and GinScatter is not
selected. The buffer is allocated only on the GinScatter path.
- #13416 (merged 2026-10-15,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_TUNING_PARTITION_MODE` (`auto`, `SPX` or `DPX`; default
`auto`): selects the gfx1250 tuning table for the GPU's
compute-partition mode. `auto` uses the DPX table when the GPU reports
DPX, and the SPX table otherwise. A communicator uses the DPX table only
when every rank selects it. The DPX table is currently a copy of the SPX
table, so tuning is unchanged.
- #13727 (merged 2026-11-03,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_IB_UDMA_POLICY` (default `0`): selects how QPs are assigned to
the two uDMA pipelines of an AINIC with the `IB-CAST` transport. `0`
pins each channel's send QPs, and separately its receive QPs, to one
pipeline per device, `1` round-robins P2P QPs, `2` leaves the choice to
the driver, and `3` splits each connection across both pipelines (the
default of two QPs per connection is enough; splitting is lost with one
QP per connection and on RMA comms). Out-of-range values log a warning
and fall back to `0`.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,

`ceNonRegMin[AllReduce]` in the per-arch table.
- #12310 (merged 2026-10-28,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_CE_REDUCESCATTER` (default `0`): opt-in Copy Engine
ReduceScatter on a single-node symmetric communicator with
`CTA_POLICY_ZERO`. Always stages through `ceARTmpBuf`; user-buffer
registration is not required. No message-size cap (large messages are
pipelined).
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3

(AllGather, AlltoAll, etc.). When `-1`, resolved from `ceRegMax[func]`
or `ceNonRegMax[func]` in the per-arch table.

symmetric-kernel upper bound for all collectives. When `-1`, resolved
from `symMaxR2[func]` (eager) or `symMaxR2Graph[func]` (graph-capture)
in the per-arch table. `kThreshUnlimited` (SIZE_MAX) in the table means
no suppression.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,

preferred over symk.
- #13995 (merged 2026-10-27,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_IB_GDR_FLUSH_FLAG` (default `0`): replaces the GPUDirect RDMA
flush of Simple-protocol receives in the `IB` network transport. Instead
of the proxy fencing each receive with an RDMA read and waiting for it,
the sender writes a per-QP flag into GPU memory after the payload
without relaxed ordering, and the GPU waits for it. A communicator uses
it only when every rank enables it and can use it (gfx942 or gfx950, the
`IB` transport, and no adaptive routing, out-of-order receive queues,
ID-based receive matching (`NCCL_IB_RECEIVER_SIDE_MATCHING_SCHEME=1`) or
port-failover resiliency (`NCCL_IB_RESILIENCY_PORT_FAILOVER`));
otherwise every rank keeps the RDMA read flush. Connections over a fused
NIC (NIC Fusion, including a fused vNIC chosen by subnet-aware routing),
with more than 8 QPs per request, or that cannot register the flag
memory also keep it. On gfx950 with 2 to 8 nodes of 8 GPUs, such a
communicator also selects Ring/LL128 from 16 MB per node, Tree/Simple
from 32 MB per node and Ring/Simple from 64 MB per node for
`ncclAllReduce`, and switches `ncclReduceScatter` from LL128 to Simple
above 6 MB per rank instead of 8 MB, unless `NCCL_ALGO` or `NCCL_PROTO`
is set. On MI355X it raises large `ncclAllReduce` and
`ncclReduceScatter` bandwidth by 10 to 22% and 1 to 8 MB `ncclAlltoAll`
by 4 to 12%.
- #13995 (merged 2026-10-27,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_IB_GDR_FLUSH_FLAG_TUNE` (default `0`): additional tuning for
communicators that use `RCCL_IB_GDR_FLUSH_FLAG` on gfx950 with 8 GPUs
per node on 2 to 8 or 16 nodes. Ring and tree connections get a 4x LL128
buffer (send/recv keeps the default, and `NCCL_LL128_BUFFSIZE` disables
it); `ncclAllReduce` selects Ring/LL128 from 12 MB per node up to what
one ring loop carries, then Tree/Simple up to 64 MB per node and
Ring/Simple on 48 channels up to 128 MB per node, and Tree/Simple from 8
to 64 MB per node on 16 nodes; `ncclReduceScatter` keeps LL128 up to 7
MB per rank, then Simple, on 16 nodes too. All ranks must use the same
value.
- #13757 (merged 2026-10-26,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_PCIE_ORDERED_RING` (default `1`, also accepted as
`NCCL_PCIE_ORDERED_RING`): pins the ring graph search to the order GPUs
appear in the topology array, so every channel uses the same ring.
Without it the search picks a different permutation per channel, so a
device exchanges with many different peers; pinning the order reduces
fan-out to one peer per direction per device across all rings, which
cuts the connections, FIFO buffers and setup work each device carries.
On gfx1250 partitioned (DPX) GPUs the unpinned search also mixes
scale-up and scale-in hops between channels; pinning keeps the two
partitions of a die adjacent, though ring throughput is bounded by its
slowest hop either way. This constrains GPU visitation order only: path
validation, bandwidth constraints and backtracking are unchanged. It
applies to gfx1250 ring graphs on a single host where every rank is a
GPU of that topology, so trees, CollNet, other architectures and
multi-host communicators are unaffected, and `NCCL_GRAPH_FILE` and
`NCCL_RINGS` still take precedence. Set `0` to restore the unconstrained
search, or `2` to fail communicator initialization instead of falling
back when no ordered ring passes validation.
- #10885 (merged 2026-10-26,

for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `NCCL_MULTI_SEGMENT_REGISTER` default changed `1` -> `0` on HIP and
stays `1` on other builds. On HIP, multi-segment registration stays off
until a job sets the variable. Set `1` to register one DMA-BUF memory
region per physical segment where the transport supports it.
- #10885 (merged 2026-10-26,

> * NET registration counts physical segments over the whole registered
buffer, not only the range a collective touches. With
`NCCL_MULTI_SEGMENT_REGISTER=0`, a collective on any part of a
multi-segment registration skips NET registration and stages, instead of
retrying a single-region registration on every collective.
- #10891 (merged 2026-10-25,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * GIN window registration on HIP fails with `ncclInvalidUsage` when
the window spans several device-memory segments, instead of registering
a memory region that covers only the first segment, and when it contains
host VMM memory and `NCCL_DMABUF_ENABLE=0`.
- #12947 (merged 2026-10-15,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3

> * `install.sh --all_unrolls` (`-DBUILD_ALL_UNROLLS=ON`) now adds the
unroll factors the multi-arch default skips (8 and 16) on top of each
architecture's existing set. It no longer replaces that set or clears
the gfx1250 pin on unroll 32. The flag stays off by default, so a normal
build does not compile unroll 8 or 16.
- #13509 (merged 2026-10-31,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * The GIO topology model is applied only to systems with exactly 16

> * Enabled the single-node one-slice optimization for gfx1250, which
was previously limited to gfx942 and gfx950. Ring Simple AllGather,
AllReduce and ReduceScatter now use one slice per chunk instead of two,
halving the per-chunk peer handshakes. The gain is largest below about
128 MB and tapers to a few percent at multi-GB sizes, where the ring is
already near the link bandwidth. LL, LL128 and non-ring algorithms are
unaffected.
- #14123 (merged 2026-10-30,

an LL128 wire line never straddles two 128-byte lines when
`RCCL_DDA_FABRIC_BUFFER_SIZE` sets an unaligned size. Results are

`ReduceScatter_TmaLD`) are offered to the symmetric cost model whenever
an application uses symmetric registered memory. The cost model selects
them only where their deep loop engages, and launches them at the widest
allowed block count. They require 16-byte aligned buffers and a build
with gfx1250 in `GPU_TARGETS` and a ROCm SDK that ships the TDM
descriptor header. For in-place AllGather and ReduceScatter the per-rank
slice must also be a multiple of 16 bytes, so that every rank selects
the same kernel. Other architectures are unaffected. Set
`NCCL_SYM_TMA_ENABLE=0` to restore the previous behavior.
- #13357 (merged 2026-10-23,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * rccl-tests `-A 1` (and `rcclGetCollImplInfo` / `rcclSymKGetInfo`)
now report a symmetric collective that selects a Tensor Data Mover
kernel as `SymTDM` instead of `SYM`. The symmetric reporting query also
accounts for buffer alignment, so it no longer omits the TDM kernels
that the live dispatch would pick.
- #12291 (merged 2026-10-21,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * The AMD Pensando 'ionic' RDMA provider for the rocSHMEM GDA GIN
backend (`NCCL_GIN_TYPE=6`) now properly enforces the required support
for creation of 'collapsed' single-entry completion queues. If network
driver and firmware support for this feature is unavailable, an
initialization failure will occur rather than a silent fallback to plain
completion queues.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * `RCCL_DDA_LL128_RS_THREADS` removed (was default `1024`):
reduce-scatter LL128 now launches a fixed 512-thread block, one warp per
slice, so the thread count is no longer a tuning knob.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * Fixed topology GPU indices that followed the HIP device order
instead of the PCI order. This reordered rings and NIC selection,
causing an `ncclGather` performance regression on multi-node MI355X
systems, and made communicator initialization fail when each rank sees
only its own GPU.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * Fixed LL-protocol latency on gfx950 when RCCL is built against a
ROCm older than 7.0.2 without the 128-bit global load/store builtins
(for example ROCm 7.0.1, or `-DDWORDX4_INTRINSICS=OFF`). Every store to
the user output buffer was followed by a release fence and an L2
writeback, which made 4 KB to 64 KB `ncclBroadcast` about 30% slower on
MI355X. Builds against ROCm 7.0.2 or later were not affected and are
unchanged.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * Fixed a 15 to 30% `ncclScatter` bandwidth loss from 16 MB upward on
multi-node AINIC jobs, caused by the move to two network channels per
peer (for example on 4 nodes of 8 GPUs). Scatter now uses and connects
the most channels per peer whose flows still fit the P2P channel pool.
Point-to-point operations and the other collectives keep their channel
count.
- #13128 (merged 2026-11-02,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.32.3
for ROCm 10.2.0` section:
> * Fixed `ncclCommAbort` and `ncclCommRevoke` hanging when a DDA
collective (IPC on gfx942/gfx950, fabric LL/LL128/VMM on gfx1250) was
waiting on a peer that never joined. DDA kernels now observe the
communicator abort flag while waiting. A parent communicator shrunk with
`NCCL_SHRINK_ABORT` no longer uses DDA for later collectives.
- #12386 (merged 2026-10-20,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * DDA LL128 eligibility functions (`ddaLL128ArOneShotEligible`,
`ddaLL128ArTwoShotEligible`) no longer check `RCCL_DDA_LL`. LL and LL128
are now independently gated: `RCCL_DDA_LL=0` disables only the LL tier;
`RCCL_DDA_LL128=0` disables only the LL128 tier. Both checks are
enforced via `rcclDdaLLThresholdTab` / `rcclDdaLL128ThresholdTab` at the
selector level, which return 0 when the respective param is disabled.
- #12386 (merged 2026-10-20,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * DDA LL128 is disabled for ReduceScatter and AlltoAll on gfx1250:
`ddaLL128Max[RS]` and `ddaLL128Max[A2A]` are 0 in the gfx1250 arch
table.
- #13005 (merged 2026-10-15,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * With `NCCL_CTA_POLICY=2` (`NCCL_CTA_POLICY_ZERO`), AllReduce on
registered symmetric windows now takes the registered CE path whenever
it is available, even when the symmetric kernel is eligible, matching
AllGather and upstream NCCL. A non-zero arch-table `ceRegMax[AllReduce]`
no longer caps it under this policy; a zero entry and an explicit
`RCCL_CE_AR_REG_MAX_MSG_BYTES` still apply.
- #12386 (merged 2026-10-20,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * `RCCL_FORCE_CE` (default `1`): acts as a prerequisite gate for
CE-scratch selection. When `RCCL_FORCE_CE=0`, CE-scratch is disabled
entirely for all collectives regardless of other flags. When non-zero,
CE-scratch fires if `CTA_POLICY_ZERO` (`-x 2`) is set (bypassing the
size window) or if the message size falls within the arch-table
`ceNonRegMax` window. AlltoAll CE-scratch now has a size window
(`ceNonRegMax[AlltoAll]` in the per-arch table, currently 0 on all
arches).
- #13098 (merged 2026-10-29,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Registered-window CE AllReduce is now eligible without requiring
``NCCL_CTA_POLICY=2``
> (``CTA_POLICY_ZERO``); it is gated only by the per-arch table window
and ``RCCL_CE_ALLREDUCE``.
> ``RCCL_FORCE_CE_ALLREDUCE`` now applies exclusively to the
non-registered (2-shot/staged) CE
  >   AllReduce path.
- #13098 (merged 2026-10-29,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * `RCCL_FORCE_SYMMETRIC` (default `0`): when set to a non-zero value,
biases the `ncclAllReduce`

candidates. The selector

if the symmetric

- #13098 (merged 2026-10-29,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2

- #14254 (merged 2026-10-30,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Fixed an intermittent hang, and possible wrong results, in the first
DDA fabric LL all-reduces after communicator initialization on gfx1250
(`NCCL_MNNVL_ENABLE=1`). Initialization zeroed the LL scratch buffer and
epoch counters with an asynchronous null-stream memset that could land
after a rank's first LL kernel, resetting its epoch so that rank used a
different flag and scratch bank than its peers. Initialization now waits
for the zero fills, and the ranks agree that every rank zeroed its
buffers before any rank can launch an LL kernel. If any rank fails to
set up its LL buffers or GPU barrier, every rank disables the fabric DDA
path together.
- #13509 (merged 2026-10-31,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Fixed memory corruption, uninitialized reads and a division by zero
when parsing malformed or oversized `NCCL_RINGS` values. A ring list
with more channels than `MAXCHANNELS`, a ring naming more GPUs or more
NET endpoints than supported, or a GPU or NET number too large for an
`int` wrote past the channel and parser arrays or wrapped around; NET
slots a ring did not name were copied into the graph uninitialized; and
input from which no channel could be parsed divided the system bandwidth
by zero channels. Such input is now rejected with `ncclInvalidUsage`,
and bandwidth is zero when no channel is parsed. Parsing a `NULL` ring
string returns `ncclInvalidArgument` instead of dereferencing it. A ring
that names its NETs between its GPUs rather than at its ends, for
example `"0 N0 1 2 N1 3"`, no longer stores a negative NET id in the
graph, which failed multi-node initialization; such a channel is
ignored.
- #13509 (merged 2026-10-31,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Fixed a crash and silent misconfiguration when parsing malformed
`RCCL_TREES` values. A tree not terminated by `)`, for example
`"(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6"`, searched past the end of the string and
segfaulted; a GPU number larger than an `int` wrapped around and built a
tree over an unintended GPU, as `"(4294967299)"` did over GPU 3; and a
stray non-digit character resolved to a GPU number left over from the
previous tree, so `"(5)(6)|(0)(x)"` parsed as `"(0)(6)"`. The number of
trees, the GPUs per tree, the transcribed tree length and the GPU index
used for remapping are now bounded. Invalid input is rejected with
`ncclInvalidUsage`, and a `NULL` tree string returns
`ncclInvalidArgument`.
- #13815 (merged 2026-10-30,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Fixed wrong results and hangs in application kernels that use the
GIN device API, such as the `07_kernel_fusion` GIN and hybrid RMSNorm
examples. `nccl_device/coop.h` selected `__syncwarp` from
`ROCM_VERSION`, which only RCCL's own build defines, so in application
code the thread and warp cooperative groups synchronized the whole block
with `__syncthreads()`. The GIN barrier calls them from a subset of
threads, which left the block's waves out of step. The headers now fall
back to the HIP version when `ROCM_VERSION` is not defined.
- #12743 (merged 2026-10-20,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Fixed the GIN plugin never being finalized for a communicator that
had connected a GIN backend, leaking the plugin's per-communicator
context and leaving its reference count one too high after every
`ncclCommDestroy`. `ncclGinHostFinalize` closed the GIN connections and
then zeroed the whole `ncclGinState`, so the `ncclGinFinalize` that
follows it in `commFree` saw no active backend and skipped the plugin
`finalize()` call. Host finalize now clears only the per-connection
state and hands the backend records to `ncclGinFinalize`, which
finalizes each one on the last shared-resource reference. `commFree`
returns the first of a `closeColl` or plugin-finalize error after those
frees; if both fail, the `closeColl` error is the one reported. An
`ncclRmaProxyFinalize` error still aborts the rest of teardown
immediately. On the Anvil SDMA backend (`NCCL_GIN_TYPE=7`) this was one
leaked init context per connected communicator.
- #12679 (merged 2026-10-16,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Fixed a crash (`HSA_STATUS_ERROR_MEMORY_APERTURE_VIOLATION`) on
gfx110x and gfx120x when the Tree algorithm runs over shared memory with
more channels than the Tree graph search found, for example with
`NCCL_ALGO=Tree` and `NCCL_P2P_DISABLE=1`. Channels added after
`ncclTopoPreset` had no intra-node tree links; `ncclTopoPostset` now
sets the tree and CollNet chain links on every channel, as it already
did for rings.
- #11133 (merged 2026-10-14,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Fixed the host one-sided RMA API being unavailable on multi-node
communicators whose ranks had fused NICs. NIC fusion merges devices for
the regular transport only; GIN and RMA select from their own topology
node types and never receive a fused device.
- #12750 (merged 2026-10-18,
and its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.31.2
for ROCm 10.2.0 (Unreleased)` section:
> * Fixed Anvil SDMA GIN small-message AllToAll latency after
`ncclGinFenceLevel` support. A sub-threshold `gin.put`, a
`gin.putValue`, or a standalone `gin.signal` emitted two system-scope
fences per peer: one in `fenceBeforeSignal` and one in `signalPeer`.
`signalPeer` now emits a single system-scope release immediately before
the remote atomic, rather than an agent-scope release before it and a
system-scope fence after it, which also stops payload stores from
passing the signal cell. A clean-queue IPC `SignalInc` skips
`fenceBeforeSignal` entirely, since it would only repeat that release.
The SDMA `quiet()` before a signal now runs only when the call itself
issued SDMA; previously any call carrying a signal or counter quieted
the peer queue, including an IPC put after an earlier SDMA put to the
same peer, which now relies on `Flush` to drain that queue. The
`NCCL_GIN_ANVIL_SDMA_IPC_AGENT_FENCE` debug knob is removed. Each
`Flush` thread drains the peers it owns and then clears exactly the bits
it drained, over a mask disjoint from every other thread's. Previously
`Flush` loaded a snapshot, quieted it, and cleared the whole word on the
coop's leading thread, on every rank, which could drop a concurrent mark
whose doorbell had not yet fired and then skip the quiet that mark
needed. Clearing after the drain also keeps the invariant that a clear
bit means a drained queue, so a second coop flushing the same context
cannot return from `Flush` while the first is still inside `quiet()`.
- #5708 (merged 2026-10-29, and
its merge commit is not in `ded49fd`), moved from the `RCCL 2.30.7 for
ROCm 10.1.0` section:
> * `hipcc` is no longer accepted as the CMake CXX compiler for RCCL
builds. Use `amdclang++` directly (`-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=amdclang++` or
set `ROCM_PATH`). `hipcc` was a wrapper around `amdclang++` that is
being phased out across the ROCm stack.

Only the CHANGELOG is changed. Version macros are left to the component
owners.
