Is there any plan to make the following work (or do these currently work) with Kokkos?
I did not yet see options for these GPUs in the documentation
Radeon Pro 560X with 4GB of GDDR5 memory
Radeon Pro Vega 16 with 4GB of HBM2 memory
Radeon Pro Vega 20 with 4GB of HBM2 memory
The reason I ask is that these are the GPU options for the 2019 Macbook pros.
Further, can I use Kokkos to run my code on the GPU in a MacbookPro?

We are working to support AMD GPUs but a complete port is still months away.
We had a reasonably complete thing, but AMD deprecated the programming model (ROCm HCC compiler based on C++ AMP). We are now working on the HIP backend.
Is there actually a hope that HIP/ROCm works on Mac OSX? https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/issues/262 did not make me optimistic.
