Number of VGPRs and SGPRs vs. hipDeviceProp_t::regsPerBlock about hip

[yxsamliu]

These are number of VGPR's per CU.

It is eventually from:

Hi @yxsamliu. Thanks a lot for your help! That's indeed exactly what I was looking for.

In my code, I'm now retrieving the number of VGPRs and SGPRs from the comgr, by proceeding similarly as in the code in rocdevice.cpp that you had referred me to.

I found that most of the functions used in rocdevice.cpp are available from the api in amd_comgr/amd_comgr.h. However, the function getValueFromIsaMeta is in rocdevice.cpp but it appears it's not in amd_comgr/amd_comgr.h. So it might be a suggestion to try to include this function in amd_comgr/amd_comgr.h. I'd be happy to post it as a suggestion on a GitHub repository, but it seems RadeonOpenCompute/llvm-project/tree/amd-stg-open/amd/comgr doesn't accept issues.
