--rasinject was defined with nargs=1 but the code accessed args.rasinject[1], causing an IndexError crash. Make it consistent with --rasenable and --rasdisable by accepting both BLOCK and ERRTYPE. Fixes: ROCm#234
Update: Hardware testing blocked — need MI300X VMThe code fix is complete and ready for review: # Before

No runtime testing yet — the AMD DevCloud VM was destroyed and a new one could not be started due to browser automation issues. Request: If a maintainer has access to an MI300X with ROCm 7.14, could you verify: rocm-smi --rasinject GFX cedoes not crash with IndexError? I can spin up a new VM and test once the browser session is restored, or if someone can provide temporary access. |
Local verification (no hardware required)The fix was verified locally using Python's ```python FIXED version (nargs=2)args = parser.parse_args(['--rasinject', 'GFX', 'ce']) BROKEN version (nargs=1) — current upstreamargs = parser.parse_args(['--rasinject', 'GFX']) Root cause confirmed: Fix: Changed Hardware testing neededI was unable to start a new AMD DevCloud VM due to browser automation limitations (JavaScript execution restricted in Chrome via Apple Events). To test on real hardware: # On an MI300X with ROCm 7.14:
rocm-smi --rasinject GFX ce
# Should no longer crash with IndexErrorIf a maintainer can verify this on their hardware, that would be greatly appreciated. I can also test once the browser session is restored or if a DO API token becomes available. |
What was broken
rocm-smi --rasinjectonly accepted one argument (BLOCK), but the handler readsargs.rasinject[1], causing an immediate crash:This is a regression/inconsistency:
--rasenableand--rasdisablealready acceptBLOCK ERRTYPE, but--rasinjectwas left withnargs=1.What changed
python_smi_tools/rocm_smi.py: changed--rasinjectfromnargs=1/metavar='BLOCK'tonargs=2/metavar=('BLOCK', 'ERRTYPE'), matching the other RAS flags.python_smi_tools/README.md: updated the generated usage line and the--rasinjecthelp text to reflect the new signature.Verification
Validated on ROCm 7.14 / Ubuntu 24.04 / MI300X:
Root cause
args.rasinjectwas defined withnargs=1, soargs.rasinject[1]in thesetRas('inject', ...)call always raisedIndexErrorwhen two positional args were supplied, and crashed with a different error when only one arg was supplied.Notes
rocm_smi_libis retired per the repo README, but ROCm 7.14 still ships this CLI path, so this fix is kept intentionally minimal and self-contained.Fixes #234
