Description

Tarball releases are now consistently available from

build_tools/install_rocm_from_artifacts.py should be refactored to fetch tarballs from CloudCront instead from the S3 buckets. This is required to enable fetching prerelease tarballs as the bucket does not provide public read access and files can only be accessed via CloudFront.

It is not an option to grant public read access to the prerelease tarball bucket!

Research direction

Start with build_tools/install_rocm_from_artifacts.py and trace how tarball URLs are currently assembled and fetched from S3. Use the listed ROCm tarball CloudFront endpoints as the source, and verify that stable, nightly, and prerelease tarballs can be retrieved without public S3 bucket access.
