[SOLVED] Problem with Radeon 5700XT and OpenCL

I have always used "opencl-amd" from the AUR to be able to use software like Blender and DaVinci Resolve. Lately I wanted to try ROCm and cleaned up the system from the old drivers and installed "rocm-hip-sdk" and "rocm-opencl-sdk" from the repository.
In the tests done in previous months (years) I always had problems, partly because my video card has no official support for ROCm. Instead, everything worked this time: clinfo and the various graphics programs worked fine, as did the benchmarks ("geekbench --compute opencl"). I even tried PyTorch (which I don't use and don't know about) because I knew its support with my board was problematic, but pytorch also worked fine.
This week, however, it no longer works! Trying to start programs that use OpenCL (Blender; DVR; clinfo; LibreOffice with OpenCL; etc.) these do not start, they hang and do not move forward. I have to terminate them or even do a kill. There are no error messages on the terminal and I can't find any in the journal either. Simply if something invokes OpenCL it stays on hold with no other signs.
I thought of a problem with ROCm and went back to "opencl-amd" from AUR, but the problem remains and OpenCL is no longer recognized.
I have looked for some solutions but no one has ever reported such a problem. From this I would say it's my video card only, but it's strange because for every other task it works regularly: "geekbench --compute vulkan", it works; "glmark2", it works; games, they works; etc...
I really don't know how to proceed to figure out the problem. Do you have any suggestions?

I put the links to the files: Xorg.0.log; pacman.log e journal.txt

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with Radeon 5700XT and OpenCL

Output of a clinfo command? A likely guess, for one version blender hard installed the intel compute stack because it wasn't dynamically loadable, that should be fixed on the current versions, try uninstalling

Thank you!!! By removing intel-oneapi (pacman -Rs intel-oneapi-compiler-shared-opencl-cpu), my AMD's OpenCL is back up and running.

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with Radeon 5700XT and OpenCL

It's kinda funny, because I tried to add similar packages to `opencl-amd` conflicts in the last version, and people started complaining, so I had to remove them again. You just can't please everyone

I can confirm that `sudo pacman -Rs intel-oneapi-compiler-shared-opencl-cpu` resolves the issue.
