The utility can be used for single-node distributed training, in which one or more processes per node will be spawned. The utility can be used for either CPU training or GPU training. If the utility is used for GPU training, each distributed process will be operating on a single GPU. This can achieve well-improved single-node training performance. It can also be used in multi-node distributed training, by spawning up multiple processes on each node for well-improved multi-node distributed training performance as well. This will especially be benefitial for systems with multiple Infiniband interfaces that have direct-GPU support, since all of them can be utilized for aggregated communication bandwidth. In both cases of single-node distributed training or multi-node distributed training, this utility will launch the given number of processes per node (``--nproc_per_node``). If used for GPU training, this number needs to be less or euqal to the number of GPUs on the current system (``nproc_per_node``), and each process will be operating on a single GPU from *GPU 0 to GPU (nproc_per_node - 1)*. **How to use this module:** 1. Single-Node multi-process distributed training :: >>> python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=NUM_GPUS_YOU_HAVE YOUR_TRAINING_SCRIPT.py (--arg1 --arg2 --arg3 and all other arguments of your training script) 2. Multi-Node multi-process distributed training: (e.g. two nodes) Node 1: *(IP: 192.168.1.1, and has a free port: 1234)* :: >>> python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=NUM_GPUS_YOU_HAVE --nnodes=2 --node_rank=0 --master_addr="192.168.1.1" --master_port=1234 YOUR_TRAINING_SCRIPT.py (--arg1 --arg2 --arg3 and all other arguments of your training script) Node 2: :: >>> python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=NUM_GPUS_YOU_HAVE --nnodes=2 --node_rank=1 --master_addr="192.168.1.1" --master_port=1234 YOUR_TRAINING_SCRIPT.py (--arg1 --arg2 --arg3 and all other arguments of your training script) 3. To look up what optional arguments this module offers: :: >>> python -m torch.distributed.launch --help **Important Notices:** 1. This utilty and multi-process distributed (single-node or multi-node) GPU training currently only achieves the best performance using the NCCL distributed backend. Thus NCCL backend is the recommended backend to use for GPU training. 2. In your training program, you must parse the command-line argument: ``--local_rank=LOCAL_PROCESS_RANK``, which will be provided by this module. If your training program uses GPUs, you should ensure that your code only runs on the GPU device of LOCAL_PROCESS_RANK. This can be done by: Parsing the local_rank argument :: >>> import argparse >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser() >>> parser.add_argument("--local_rank", type=int) >>> args = parser.parse_args() Set your device to local rank using either :: >>> torch.cuda.set_device(arg.local_rank) # before your code runs or :: >>> with torch.cuda.device(arg.local_rank): >>> # your code to run 3. In your training program, you are supposed to call the following function at the beginning to start the distributed backend. You need to make sure that the init_method uses ``env://``, which is the only supported ``init_method`` by this module. :: torch.distributed.init_process_group(backend='YOUR BACKEND', init_method='env://') 4. In your training program, you can either use regular distributed functions or use :func:`torch.nn.parallel.DistributedDataParallel` module. If your training program uses GPUs for training and you would like to use :func:`torch.nn.parallel.DistributedDataParallel` module, here is how to configure it. :: model = torch.nn.parallel.DistributedDataParallel(model, device_ids=[arg.local_rank], output_device=arg.local_rank) Please ensure that ``device_ids`` argument is set to be the only GPU device id that your code will be operating on. This is generally the local rank of the process. In other words, the ``device_ids`` needs to be ``[args.local_rank]``, and ``output_device`` needs to be ``args.local_rank`` in order to use this utility 5. Another way to pass ``local_rank`` to the subprocesses via environment variable ``LOCAL_RANK``. This behavior is enabled when you launch the script with ``--use_env=True``. You must adjust the subprocess example above to replace ``args.local_rank`` with ``os.environ['LOCAL_RANK']``; the launcher will not pass ``--local_rank`` when you specify this flag. .. warning:: ``local_rank`` is NOT globally unique: it is only unique per process on a machine. Thus, don't use it to decide if you should, e.g., write to a networked filesystem. See https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/12042 for an example of how things can go wrong if you don't do this correctly.
