This PR adds the possibility to build the C++ parts of autograd and jit, with no dependency on Python.
The goal is to allow taking a PyTorch IR representation (a tree s-expr) and running it with provided inputs.
Prerequisite: build PyTorch so that codegen runs once.
Instructions:
cd tools/cpp_build
bash build_all.sh
This will build libtorchjit and torchjit_test in tools/cpp_build/build/torchjit-build. The latter basically runs the code in test_jit.cpp for now.
While writing the PR, it turned out that a few of Python.h includes were redundant. They were removed here (PyTorch tests still pass on my machine, we'll see CI).
* Introduce Python-free builds of autograd and jit
* Remove NO_PYTHON ifdef in functions/special
Implements from_numpy using ATen tensors. Variable.from_numpy is a
convenient placeholder for the variant that returns Variables until we
merge Tensor and Variable.
The behavior is slightly changed:
- from_numpy() on an empty array now returns an empty tensor instead of
throwing an exception. The shape may not be preserved.
- CharTensor(ndarray) used to throw an exception. It now copies the
ndarray. Copying is implemented via ATen toType.
Implements basic and advanced indexing using ATen tensors/variables.
Basic indexing is translated at the Python-binding level
(python_variable_indexing.cpp) to slice/squeeze/unsqueeze/select calls.
Advanced indexing is implemented in ATen in terms of take() and put()
calls.
