NPKit介绍

以NCCL为例,如何使用?

Usage

  1. NCCL 2.17.1-1版本,将文件夹下的 npkit-for-nccl-2.17.1-1.diff 添加到你的nccl源文件中。

  2. NPKit只有在CPU和GPU没以后overlap的时候使用,所以 NPKIT_FLAGS 也要遵从这个规则。同时 npkit_launcher.sh里面的参数也要对应正确。

  3. nccl_testnpkit_runner.sh对应参数正确. 仅支持每个线程有1个GPU, 因此nccl_test运行参数记得是 -g 1

  4. 运行bash npkit_launcher.sh.

  5. 生成文件 npkit_event_trace.json ,可以用谷歌浏览器打开看。在浏览器那一栏输入chrome://tracing, 然后打开对应文件即可。
