At initialization, FSDP shards the module's parameters across the data parallel workers given by ``mesh``. Before forward, FSDP all-gathers the sharded parameters across the data-parallel workers to get the unsharded parameters for forward computation. If ``reshard_after_forward`` is ``True``, then FSDP frees the unsharded parameters after forward and re-all-gathers them in backward before gradient computation. After gradient computation, FSDP frees the unsharded parameters and reduce-scatters the unsharded gradients across data-parallel workers. This implementation represents the sharded parameters as :class:`DTensor` s sharded on dim-0, while the unsharded parameters will be like the original parameters on ``module`` (e.g. :class:`torch.Tensor` if originally :class:`torch.Tensor`). A module `forward pre-hook `_ on ``module`` all-gathers the parameters, and a module `forward hook `_ on ``module`` frees them (if needed). Similar backward hooks all-gather parameters and later free parameters and reduce-scatter gradients. Since grouping multiple tensors together for one collective is critical for communication efficiency, this implementation makes this grouping first class. Calling :meth:`fully_shard` on ``module`` constructs one group that includes the parameters in ``module.parameters()`` except those already assigned to a group from an earlier call on a submodule. This means that :meth:`fully_shard` should be called bottom-up on your model. Each group's parameters are all-gathered in one collective, and its gradients are reduce-scattered in one collective. Partitioning the model into multiple groups ("layer by layer") allows for peak memory savings and communication/computation overlap. Users generally should *not* call :meth:`fully_shard` only on the topmost root module. Args: module (Union[nn.Module, List[nn.Module]): The module or modules to shard with FSDP and group together for communication. mesh (Optional[DeviceMesh]): This data parallel mesh defines the sharding and device. If 1D, then parameters are fully sharded across the 1D mesh (FSDP) with ``(Shard(0),)`` placement. If 2D, then parameters are sharded across the 1st dim and replicated across the 0th dim (HSDP) with ``(Replicate(), Shard(0))`` placement. The mesh's device type gives the device type used for communication; if a CUDA or CUDA-like device type, then we use the current device. reshard_after_forward (Optional[Union[bool, int]]): This controls the parameter behavior after forward and can trade off memory and communication: - If ``True``, then this reshards parameters after forward and re-all-gathers in backward. - If ``False``, then this keeps the unsharded parameters in memory after forward and avoids the all-gather in backward. For best performance, we usually set ``False`` for the root module, because the root module is typically required immediately when the backward pass begins. - If ``None``, it is set to ``True`` for non-root modules and ``False`` for root modules. - If an ``int``, then this represents the world size to reshard to after forward. It should be a non-trivial divisor of the ``mesh`` shard dim size (i.e. excluding 1 and the dim size itself). A choice may be the intra-node size (e.g. ``torch.cuda.device_count()``). This allows the all-gather in backward to be over a smaller world size at the cost of higher memory usage than setting to ``True``. - After forward, the parameters registered to the module depend on to this: The registered parameters are the sharded parameters if ``True``; unsharded parameters if ``False``; and the parameters resharded to the smaller mesh otherwise. To modify the parameters between forward and backward, the registered parameters must be the sharded parameters. For ``False`` or an ``int``, this can be done by manually resharding via :meth:`reshard`. shard_placement_fn (Optional[Callable[[nn.Parameter], Optional[Shard]]]): This callable can be used to override the sharding placement for a parameter to shard a parameter on a dimension other than dim-0. If this callable returns a :class:`Shard` placement (not ``None``), then FSDP will shard according to that placement (e.g. ``Shard(1)``). If sharding on a nonzero dim, we currently require even sharding, i.e. the tensor dim size on that dim must be divisible by the FSDP shard mesh size. mp_policy (MixedPrecisionPolicy): This controls the mixed precision policy, which offers parameter/reduction mixed precision for this module. See :class:`MixedPrecisionPolicy` for details. offload_policy (OffloadPolicy): This controls the offloading policy, which offers parameter/gradient/optimizer state offloading. See :class:`OffloadPolicy` and its subclasses for details. ignored_params: Optional(Set[nn.Parameter]): The set of parameters to be ignored by FSDP. They will not be sharded, nor moved to the device during init, nor have their gradients reduced in backward. Returns: FSDPModule: The module with FSDP applied (in-place).
