Amdgpu-pro


So I run a late-2015 iMac (Debian sid)

the graphics details are
Code:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Device 6920 (rev 01)
which is a R9 M395 (the R9 M395X is more popular which has 4GB compared to 2GB and also some other minor details)

So AMD currently has Ubuntu support.

Is it the case that while I am interested in learning, that this is closed source so depends entirely on AMD?
