The core autograd Variable, Function, and Engine no longer depend on the
Python API. This let's us implement functions in C++. In the future, we
can also multithread engine and release the GIL for most of the
non-Python backwards.
Here's the command I used to invoke autopep8 (in parallel!):
git ls-files | grep '\.py$' | xargs -n1 -P`nproc` autopep8 -i
Several rules are ignored in setup.cfg. The goal is to let autopep8
handle everything which it can handle safely, and to disable any rules
which are tricky or controversial to address. We may want to come back
and re-enable some of these rules later, but I'm trying to make this
patch as safe as possible.
Also configures flake8 to match pep8's behavior.
Also configures TravisCI to check the whole project for lint.
* Fix error in ELU backward
* Add --seed flag for testst st
* Add test for BatchNorm eval
* Fix autograd.backward docs
* Support cc flags in cuDNN search
* Fix IndexSelect backward formula
This hooks into the (internal) ForkingPickler class in multiprocessing
to reduce tensors, storages, and CUDA events instead of our queue from
joblib. This makes it easier to use the standard multiprocessing classes
in later versions of Python.
This also exposes:
- Tensor/Storage.share_memory_()
- Module.share_memory()
These methods move the CPU tensors and storages to shared memory. If
you're using the "fork" method of multiprocessing, these objects can be
directly inherited instead of serialized through a queue.
CUDA IPC only works with Python 3 using the "spawn" start method. You
can select the start method using the get_context method:
import torch.multiprocessing as mp
ctx = mp.get_context('spawn')
queue = ctx.Queue()
event = ctx.Event()
