Summary: Continuing the work from https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/pull/146427 Adds the `torch.float8_e8m0fnu` dtype to PyTorch, as detailed in https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/146414 . Please see the issue for a detailed definition of the format. Example of basic functionality: ```python import torch # round trip x0 = torch.randn(4, 4, dtype=torch.float32) x1 = x0.to(torch.float8_e8m0fnu) # RNE rounding x2 = x1.to(torch.float32) # 2 ** exponent # creation with empty x0 = torch.empty(4, 4, dtype=torch.float8_e8m0fnu) # printing print(x0) ``` Done in this PR: * numerical correctness * op coverage (except for `torch._scaled_mm`): create tensor, cast to/from float32 * printing a tensor works For future PRs: * performance optimizations for casting * torch._scaled_mm * PT2 * various cleanups (detailed in comments with issue numbers) Test Plan: ``` pytest test/quantization/core/experimental/test_float8.py -s ``` Reviewers: Subscribers: Tasks: Tags: Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/pull/147466 Approved by: https://github.com/drisspg
This folder contains a number of scripts which are used as
part of the PyTorch build process. This directory also doubles
as a Python module hierarchy (thus the __init__.py).
Overview
Modern infrastructure:
- autograd - Code generation for autograd. This includes definitions of all our derivatives.
- jit - Code generation for JIT
- shared - Generic infrastructure that scripts in
tools may find useful.
- module_loader.py - Makes it easier to import arbitrary Python files in a script, without having to add them to the PYTHONPATH first.
Build system pieces:
- setup_helpers - Helper code for searching for third-party dependencies on the user system.
- build_pytorch_libs.py - cross-platform script that builds all of the constituent libraries of PyTorch, but not the PyTorch Python extension itself.
- build_libtorch.py - Script for building libtorch, a standalone C++ library without Python support. This build script is tested in CI.
Developer tools which you might find useful:
- git_add_generated_dirs.sh and git_reset_generated_dirs.sh - Use this to force add generated files to your Git index, so that you can conveniently run diffs on them when working on code-generation. (See also generated_dirs.txt which specifies the list of directories with generated files.)
Important if you want to run on AMD GPU:
- amd_build - HIPify scripts, for transpiling CUDA
into AMD HIP. Right now, PyTorch and Caffe2 share logic for how to
do this transpilation, but have separate entry-points for transpiling
either PyTorch or Caffe2 code.
- build_amd.py - Top-level entry point for HIPifying our codebase.
Tools which are only situationally useful:
- docker - Dockerfile for running (but not developing) PyTorch, using the official conda binary distribution. Context: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/1619
- download_mnist.py - Download the MNIST dataset; this is necessary if you want to run the C++ API tests.
