What has changed compared to your other issue (#115312) where you could not even launch blender? Which exact build of blender are you using? Are you using an official one: the portable .tar.xz, the Snap, Steam?

Compared to the issue on the other issue (#115312) I am using the portable tar.xz

[blender-4.1.0-alpha+main.b24610053fbc-linux.x86_64-release.tar.xz]

This issue is not version specific, however it appeared the same time as 4.0's release, making me think that it might be related to how Blender interacts with the HIP-runtime, or perhaps the other way around

EDIT: I figured I should also mention that both Eevee (Legacy) and Eevee work without issue, aside from a one-time issue with transparent image textures which i could not replicate. It truly is only the moment blender has to directly interact with HIP

I would like to now add that after further testing, neither a downgrade of blender, nor the hip-runtime-amd package or both at once have resolved this issue, now leaving me to think that this issue may be connected to a third, yet undetermined package.

This time I have attached the blender.crash.txt so that maybe someone can figure out what exactly is going on here.

This crash log is written when I try to launch blender, since I have now been led to believe that both the launching issue and Cycles issue may be connected

I'm pretty sure this is being tracked on the Arch side: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/blender/-/issues/2

The issue there matches the LLVM 15 vs. LLVM 16 vs. Radeon driver fiasco that your crashing stack also has.
