# Intel® oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch (formerly known as torch_ccl)

This repository holds PyTorch bindings maintained by Intel® for the Intel® oneAPI Collective Communications Library (oneCCL).

## Introduction

[PyTorch](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch) is an open-source machine learning framework.

[Intel® oneCCL](https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneCCL) (collective communications library) is a library for efficient distributed deep learning training, implementing collectives like `allreduce`, `allgather`, `alltoall`. For more information on oneCCL, please refer to the [oneCCL documentation](https://oneapi-spec.uxlfoundation.org/specifications/oneapi/latest/elements/oneccl/source/).

`oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch` module implements PyTorch C10D ProcessGroup API and can be dynamically loaded as external ProcessGroup and only works on Linux platform now.

## Capability

The table below shows which functions are available for use with CPU / Intel dGPU tensors.

| | CPU | GPU |

```bash
python -m pip install oneccl_bind_pt==2.3.100 --extra-index-url https://pytorch-extension.intel.com/release-whl/stable/xpu/us/
```

**Note:** Please set proxy or update URL address to https://pytorch-extension.intel.com/release-whl/stable/xpu/cn/ if you meet connection issue.

### Runtime Dynamic Linking

- If oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch is built without oneCCL and use oneCCL in system, dynamic link oneCCl from oneAPI basekit (recommended usage):

```bash
source $basekit_root/ccl/latest/env/vars.sh
```

Note: Make sure you have installed [basekit](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/toolkits.html#base-kit) when using Intel® oneCCL Bindings for Pytorch\* on Intel® GPUs.

- If oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch is built with oneCCL from third party or installed from prebuilt wheel:
Dynamic link oneCCL and Intel MPI libraries:

```bash
source $(python -c "import oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch as torch_ccl;print(torch_ccl.cwd)")/env/setvars.sh
```

Dynamic link oneCCL only (not including Intel MPI):

```bash
source $(python -c "import oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch as torch_ccl;print(torch_ccl.cwd)")/env/vars.sh
```

## Usage

**Note:** Please `import torch` and `import intel_extension_for_pytorch`, prior to `import oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch`.

example.py

```python

import torch
import intel_extension_for_pytorch
import oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch
import torch.nn.parallel
import torch.distributed as dist

...

os.environ['MASTER_ADDR'] = '127.0.0.1'
os.environ['MASTER_PORT'] = '29500'
os.environ['RANK'] = str(os.environ.get('PMI_RANK', 0))
os.environ['WORLD_SIZE'] = str(os.environ.get('PMI_SIZE', 1))

backend = 'ccl'
dist.init_process_group(backend, ...)
my_rank = dist.get_rank()
my_size = dist.get_world_size()
print("my rank = %d my size = %d" % (my_rank, my_size))

...

model = torch.nn.parallel.DistributedDataParallel(model, ...)

...
```

(oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch is built without oneCCL, use oneCCL and MPI(if needed) in system)

```bash
source $basekit_root/ccl/latest/env/vars.sh
source $basekit_root/mpi/latest/env/vars.sh

mpirun -n -ppn -f python example.py
```

## Performance Debugging

For debugging performance of communication primitives PyTorch's [Autograd profiler](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/autograd.html#profiler)
can be used to inspect time spent inside oneCCL calls.

Example:

profiling.py

```python

import torch.nn.parallel
import torch.distributed as dist
import oneccl_bindings_for_pytorch
import os

os.environ['MASTER_ADDR'] = '127.0.0.1'
os.environ['MASTER_PORT'] = '29500'
os.environ['RANK'] = str(os.environ.get('PMI_RANK', 0))
os.environ['WORLD_SIZE'] = str(os.environ.get('PMI_SIZE', 1))

backend = 'ccl'
dist.init_process_group(backend)
my_rank = dist.get_rank()
my_size = dist.get_world_size()
print("my rank = %d my size = %d" % (my_rank, my_size))

x = torch.ones([2, 2])
y = torch.ones([4, 4])
with torch.autograd.profiler.profile(record_shapes=True) as prof:
for _ in range(10):
dist.all_reduce(x)
dist.all_reduce(y)
dist.barrier()
print(prof.key_averages(group_by_input_shape=True).table(sort_by="self_cpu_time_total"))

```

```bash
mpirun -n 2 -l python profiling.py
```

## Known Issues

For Point-to-point communication, directly call dist.send/recv after initializing the process group in launch script will trigger runtime error. Because all ranks of the group are expected to participate in this call to create communicators in our current implementation, while dist.send/recv only has a pair of ranks' participation. As a result, dist.send/recv should be used after collective call, which ensures all ranks' participation. The further solution for supporting directly call dist.send/recv after initializing the process group is still under investigation.
