#2557: support AMD AOCC compiler

 Reporter: Roland Haas
   Status: new
Milestone: 
  Version: development version
     Type: enhancement
 Priority: minor
Component: 

AMD;'s new compiler currently is not supported in the ET since, the known-architecture file aborts if it cannot identify the compiler \(even when CC and CFLAGS etc are all being provided\).

See [http://lists.einsteintoolkit.org/pipermail/users/2021-August/008157.html](http://lists.einsteintoolkit.org/pipermail/users/2021-August/008157.html)

AMD’s compiler suite has its own C compiler and Fortran compiler either forked off from the PGI compiler \(old and current version\) or flang \(current and future version\).

Right now it is unclear if it would offer a performance benefit over GNU or Intel compilers.
