Description

Currently GPU Acceleration within Windows Containers only allow for DirectX and frameworks built on top of it. Please allow for a way for us to leverage 3rd party Vendor specific frameworks (such as AMD AMF, ROCM, CUDA, and etc) to truly allow for GPU accelerated workloads.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing Windows Containers GPU acceleration path for DirectX, then investigate how the named vendor frameworks—AMD AMF, ROCM, and CUDA—could be supported. The issue names no files, tests, or implementation entry point; done would require a defined integration approach and validation for vendor-specific GPU workloads.
