AMDGPU is AMD's fully open source unified graphics driver for Linux.[1][3] AMDGPU only officially supports cards built upon GCN 3 or higher, though support for previous cards is experimental and may be enabled by a kernel parameter.[4][5]
AMDGPU also has an optional closed-source component, which operates on top of the open source AMDGPU for alternative 3D application support, known as AMDGPU-PRO.[6]
