* Initial commit to support multi-node multi-gpu xgboost using dask
* Fixed NCCL initialization by not ignoring the opg parameter.
- it now crashes on NCCL initialization, but at least we're attempting it properly
* At the root node, perform a rabit::Allreduce to get initial sum_gradient across workers
* Synchronizing in a couple of more places.
- now the workers don't go down, but just hang
- no more "wild" values of gradients
- probably needs syncing in more places
* Added another missing max-allreduce operation inside BuildHistLeftRight
* Removed unnecessary collective operations.
* Simplified rabit::Allreduce() sync of gradient sums.
* Removed unnecessary rabit syncs around ncclAllReduce.
- this improves performance _significantly_ (7x faster for overall training,
20x faster for xgboost proper)
* pulling in latest xgboost
* removing changes to updater_quantile_hist.cc
* changing use_nccl_opg initialization, removing unnecessary if statements
* added definition for opaque ncclUniqueId struct to properly encapsulate GetUniqueId
* placing struct defintion in guard to avoid duplicate code errors
* addressing linting errors
* removing
* removing additional arguments to AllReduer initialization
* removing distributed flag
* making comm init symmetric
* removing distributed flag
* changing ncclCommInit to support multiple modalities
* fix indenting
* updating ncclCommInitRank block with necessary group calls
* fix indenting
* adding print statement, and updating accessor in vector
* improving print statement to end-line
* generalizing nccl_rank construction using rabit
* assume device_ordinals is the same for every node
* test, assume device_ordinals is identical for all nodes
* test, assume device_ordinals is unique for all nodes
* changing names of offset variable to be more descriptive, editing indenting
* wrapping ncclUniqueId GetUniqueId() and aesthetic changes
* adding synchronization, and tests for distributed
* adding to tests
* fixing broken #endif
* fixing initialization of gpu histograms, correcting errors in tests
* adding to contributors list
* adding distributed tests to jenkins
* fixing bad path in distributed test
* debugging
* adding kubernetes for distributed tests
* adding proper import for OrderedDict
* adding urllib3==1.22 to address ordered_dict import error
* added sleep to allow workers to save their models for comparison
* adding name to GPU contributors under docs
* Basic script for using compilation database.
* Add `GENERATE_COMPILATION_DATABASE' to CMake.
* Rearrange CMakeLists.txt.
* Add basic python clang-tidy script.
* Remove modernize-use-auto.
* Add clang-tidy to Jenkins
* Refine logic for correct path detection
In Jenkins, the project root is of form /home/ubuntu/workspace/xgboost_PR-XXXX
* Run clang-tidy in CUDA 9.2 container
* Use clang_tidy container
* Add multi-GPU unit test environment
* Better assertion message
* Temporarily disable failing test
* Distinguish between multi-GPU and single-GPU CPP tests
* Consolidate Python tests. Use attributes to distinguish multi-GPU Python tests from single-CPU counterparts
* Fix#3730: scikit-learn 0.20 compatibility fix
sklearn.cross_validation has been removed from scikit-learn 0.20,
so replace it with sklearn.model_selection
* Display test names for Python tests for clarity
* Fail GPU CI after test failure
* Fix GPU linear tests
* Reduced number of GPU tests to speed up CI
* Remove static allocations of device memory
* Resolve illegal memory access for updater_fast_hist.cc
* Fix broken r tests dependency
* Update python install documentation for GPU
* Upgrading to NCCL2
* Part - II of NCCL2 upgradation
- Doc updates to build with nccl2
- Dockerfile.gpu update for a correct CI build with nccl2
- Updated FindNccl package to have env-var NCCL_ROOT to take precedence
* Upgrading to v9.2 for CI workflow, since it has the nccl2 binaries available
* Added NCCL2 license + copy the nccl binaries into /usr location for the FindNccl module to find
* Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to pick nccl2 binary at runtime
* Need the nccl2 library download instructions inside Dockerfile.release as well
* Use NCCL2 as a static library
CI tests were failing because wget prompts "the user" for a response
whenever the google test archive is already on the disk.
Fix: Use `-nc` option to skip download when the archive already
exists
Includes:
- Dockerfile changes
- Dockerfile clean up
- Fix execution privileges of files used from Dockerfile.
- New Dockerfile entrypoint to replace with_user script
- Defined a placeholders for CPU testing (script and Dockerfile)
- Jenkinsfile
- Jenkins file milestone defined
- Single source code checkout and propagation via stash/unstash
- Bash needs to be explicitly used in launching make build, since we need
access to environment
- Jenkinsfile build factory for cmake and make style of jobs
- Archivation of artifacts (*.so, *.whl, *.egg) produced by cmake build
Missing:
- CPU testing
- Python3 env build and testing
