A fairly common query I see folks running while using pytorch is
`nvidia-smi --format=csv,noheader,nounits --query-gpu=utilization.gpu,utilization.memory,memory.total,memory.used,temperature.gpu,power.draw,clocks.current.sm,clocks.current.memory -l 10`
Existing metrics we have
* For kernel utilization`torch.cuda.utilization()`
* For memory utilization we have them under `torch.cuda.memory` the memory allocated with `torch.cuda.memory.memory_allocated()`
* For total available memory we have `torch.cuda.get_device_properties(0).total_memory`
Which means the only metrics we're missing are
* Temperature: now in `torch.cuda.temperature()`
* Power draw: now in `torch.cuda.power()`
* Clock speed: now in `torch.cuda.clock_speed()`
With some important details on each
* Clock speed settings: I picked the SM clock domain which is documented here https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/nvml-api/group__nvmlDeviceEnumvs.html#group__nvmlDeviceEnumvs_1g805c0647be9996589fc5e3f6ff680c64
* Temperature: I use `pynvml.nvmlDeviceGetTemperature(handle, 0)` where 0 refers to the GPU die temperature

Summary:
The caching allocator can be configured to round memory allocations in order to reduce fragmentation. Sometimes however, the overhead from rounding can be higher than the fragmentation it helps reduce.
We have added a new stat to CUDA caching allocator stats to help track if rounding is adding too much overhead and help tune the roundup_power2_divisions flag:
- "requested_bytes.{current,peak,allocated,freed}": memory requested by client code, compare this with allocated_bytes to check if allocation rounding adds too much overhead
Test Plan: Added test case in caffe2/test/test_cuda.py

Summary:
Improved roundup_power2_divisions knob so it allows better control of rouding in the PyTorch CUDA Caching Allocator.
This new version allows setting the number of divisions per power of two interval starting from 1MB and ending at 64GB and above. An example use case is when rouding is desirable for small allocations but there are also very large allocations which are persistent, thus would not benefit from rounding and take up extra space.

We currently can take snapshots of the state of the allocated cuda memory, but we do not have a way to correlate these snapshots with the actions the allocator that were taken between snapshots. This PR adds a simple fixed-sized buffer that records the major actions that the allocator takes (ALLOC, FREE, SEGMENT_ALLOC, SEGMENT_FREE, OOM, SNAPSHOT) and includes these with the snapshot information. Capturing period snapshots with a big enough trace buffer makes it possible to see how the allocator state changes over time.
We plan to use this functionality to guide how settings in the allocator can be adjusted and eventually have a more robust overall algorithm.
As a component of this functionality, we also add the ability to get a callback when the allocator will throw an OOM, primarily so that snapshots can be taken immediately to see why the program ran out of memory (most programs have some C++ state that would free tensors before the OutOfMemory exception can be caught).
This PR also updates the _memory_viz.py script to pretty-print the trace information and provide a better textual summary of snapshots distinguishing between internal and external fragmentation.

Added ROCm support for the test_lazy_init unit test by including a condition on TEST_WITH_ROCM to switch CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES with HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES.
This is needed because HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES is set when running the single-GPU tests in CI: a47bc96fb7/.jenkins/pytorch/test.sh (L38), but this test sets CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES, which takes lower precedence than HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES on ROCm.

Record stack trace information for each allocated segment in the allocator.
It takes around 1.5us to record 50 stack frames of context.
Since invoking a Pytorch operator is around 8us, this adds minimal overhead but we still leave it disabled by default so that we can test it more on real workloads first.
Stack information is kept both for allocated blocks and the last allocation used inactive blocks. We could potential keep around the _first_ allocation that caused the block to get allocated from cuda as well.
Potential Followups:
* stack frame entries are small (16 bytes), but the list of Frames is not compressed eventhough most frames will share some entries. So far this doesn't produce huge dumps (7MB for one real workload that uses all memory on the GPU), but it can be much smaller through compression.
* Code to format the information is slow (a few seconds) because it uses python and FlameGraph.pl
* Things allocated during the backward pass have no stack frames because they are run on another C++ thread.

Near term fix for https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/76368.
Q. Why does the user need to request `capturable=True` in the optimizer constructor? Why can't capture safety be completely automatic?
A. We need to set up capture-safe (device-side) state variables before capture. If we don't, and step() internally detects capture is underway, it's too late: the best we could do is create a device state variable and copy the current CPU value into it, which is not something we want baked into the graph.
Q. Ok, why not just do the capture-safe approach with device-side state variables all the time?
A. It incurs several more kernel launches per parameter, which could really add up and regress cpu overhead for ungraphed step()s. If the optimizer won't be captured, we should allow step() to stick with its current cpu-side state handling.
Q. But cuda RNG is a stateful thing that maintains its state on the cpu outside of capture and replay, and we capture it automatically. Why can't we do the same thing here?
A. The graph object can handle RNG generator increments because its capture_begin, capture_end, and replay() methods can see and access generator object. But the graph object has no explicit knowledge of or access to optimizer steps in its capture scope. We could let the user tell the graph object what optimizers will be stepped in its scope, ie something like
```python
graph.will_use_optimizer(opt)
graph.capture_begin()
...
```
but that seems clunkier than an optimizer constructor arg.
I'm open to other ideas, but right now I think constructor arg is necessary and the least bad approach.
Long term, https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/71274 is a better fix.

Resubmit of https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/pull/77673, which was reverted due to Windows test failures: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/pull/77673#issuecomment-1130425845.
I suspect these failures happened because I don't explicitly set a side stream for graph capture in the new test.
Not setting a side stream explicitly is alright on Linux because cuda tests implicitly use a side stream.
I think Windows cuda tests implicitly use the default stream, breaking capture and leaving the backend in a bad state.
Other graphs tests explicitly set side streams and don't error in Windows builds, so i'm 95% sure doing the same for the new test will work.

This patch fixes a compilation error in PyTorch with ROCm when `NDEBUG` is passed.
## Problem
Forward declaration of `__host__ __device__ __assert_fail()` is used in `c10/macros/Macros.h` for HIP compilation when `NDEBUG` is set However, HIP has `__device__ __assert_fail()` in `hip/amd_detail/amd_device_functions.h`, causing a function type error.
This issue does not appear in ROCm CI tests since it happens only when `NDEBUG` is passed.
## Solution
[EDIT] After the discussion on GitHub, we chose to entirely disable `CUDA_KERNEL_ASSERT()` for ROCm.
---
To solve this compilation error, this patch disables `CUDA_KERNEL_ASSERT()`, which uses `__assert_fail()` when
1. `c10/macros/Macros.h` is included for `*.hip` (precisely speaking, `__HIP__` or `__HIP_ARCH__` is defined), and
2. `NDEBUG` is passed.
Note that there's no impact on default compilation because, without a special compilation flag, those HIP files are compiled without `-NDEBUG`. And that's why this issue has not been found.
### Justification
[1] We cannot declare one host-and-device function for two separate host and device functions.
```
__device__ int func() {return 0};
__host__ int func() {return 0};
// Compile error (hipcc)
// __device__ __host__ int func();
```
[2] Forward declaration of a correct `__device__` only `__assert_fail()` for `__HIP__` causes the following error:
```
pytorch/c10/util/TypeCast.h:135:7: error: reference to __device__ function '__assert_fail' in __host__ __device__ function
ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_CAST

#define ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_CAST CUDA_KERNEL_ASSERT(false);
^

__assert_fail(
```
[3] Maybe there's a way to properly define `__assert_fail()` for HIP + NDEBUG, but this might be too much. Please let me just disable it.

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/pull/68749
The logic for asynchronous copies (either HtoD or DtoH) using cudaMemcpyAsync relies on recording an event with the caching host allocator to notify it that a given allocation has been used on a stream - and thus it should wait for that stream to proceed before reusing the host memory.
This tracking is based on the allocator maintaining a map from storage allocation pointers to some state.
If we try to record an event for a pointer we don't understand, we will silently drop the event and ignore it (9554ebe44e/aten/src/ATen/cuda/CachingHostAllocator.cpp (L171-L175)).
Thus, if we use the data_ptr of a Tensor instead of the storage allocation, then reasonable code can lead to incorrectness due to missed events.
One way this can occur is simply by slicing a tensor into sub-tensors - which have different values of `data_ptr()` but share the same storage, for example:
```
image_batch = torch.randn(M, B, C, H, W).pin_memory()
for m in range(M):
sub_batch = image_batch[m].cuda(non_blocking=True)
# sub_batch.data_ptr() != image_batch.data_ptr() except for m == 0.
# however, sub_batch.storage().data_ptr() == image_batch.storage().data_ptr() always.
```
Therefore, we instead use the storage context pointer when recording events, as this is the same state that is tracked by the caching allocator itself. This is a correctness fix, although it's hard to determine how widespread this issue is.
Using the storage context also allows us to use a more efficient structure internally to the caching allocator, which will be sent in future diffs.
Test Plan: Test added which demonstrates the issue, although it's hard to demonstrate the race explicitly.

Reducing the severity of such detection to warning, so as not to fail the CI tests, as the actual test is not failing, rather only the check inside the decorator is failing.

Remove dtype tracking from Python Storage interface, remove all the different `<type>Storage` classes except for `ByteStorage`, and update serialization accordingly, while maintaining as much FC/BC as possible
Fixes https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/47442
* **THE SERIALIZATION FORMAT IS FULLY FC/BC.** We worked very hard to make sure this is the case. We will probably want to break FC at some point to make the serialization structure of tensors make more sense, but not today.
* There is now only a single torch.ByteStorage class. Methods like `Tensor.set_` no longer check that the dtype of storage is appropriate.
* As we no longer know what dtype of a storage is, we've **removed** the size method from Storage, replacing it with nbytes. This is to help catch otherwise silent errors where you confuse number of elements with number of bytes.
* `Storage._new_shared` takes a `nbytes` kwarg and will reject previous positional only calls. `Storage._new_with_file` and `_set_from_file` require explicit element size arguments.
* It's no longer possible to convert storages to different types using the float/double/etc methods. Instead, do the conversion using a tensor.
* It's no longer possible to allocate a typed storage directly using FloatStorage/DoubleStorage/etc constructors. Instead, construct a tensor and extract its storage. The classes still exist but they are used purely for unpickling.
* The preexisting serialization format stores dtype with storage, and in fact this dtype is used to determine the dtype of the tensor overall.
To accommodate this case, we introduce a new TypedStorage concept that exists only during unpickling time which is used to temporarily store the dtype so we can construct a tensor. **If you overrode the handling of pickling/unpickling, you MUST add handling for TypedStorage** or your serialization code will degrade to standard file-based serialization.
