- Pass context from booster to DMatrix.
- Use context instead of integer for `n_threads`.
- Check the consistency configuration for `max_bin`.
- Test for all combinations of initialization options.
* Use the name `Context`.
* Pass a context object into `SetInfo`.
* Add context to proxy matrix.
* Add context to iterative DMatrix.
This is to remove the use of the default number of threads during `SetInfo` as a follow-up on
removing the global omp variable while preparing for CUDA stream semantic. Currently, XGBoost
uses the legacy CUDA stream, we will gradually remove them in the future in favor of non-blocking streams.
This PR prepares the GHistIndexMatrix to host the column matrix which is used by the hist tree method by accepting sparse_threshold parameter.
Some cleanups are made to ensure the correct batch param is being passed into DMatrix along with some additional tests for correctness of SimpleDMatrix.
This is the one last PR for removing omp global variable.
* Add context object to the `DMatrix`. This bridges `DMatrix` with https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/issues/7308 .
* Require context to be available at the construction time of booster.
* Add `n_threads` support for R csc DMatrix constructor.
* Remove `omp_get_max_threads` in R glue code.
* Remove threading utilities that rely on omp global variable.
- Reduce dependency on dmlc parsers and provide an interface for users to load data by themselves.
- Remove use of threaded iterator and IO queue.
- Remove `page_size`.
- Make sure the number of pages in memory is bounded.
- Make sure the cache can not be violated.
- Provide an interface for internal algorithms to process data asynchronously.
* Set default dtor for SimpleDMatrix to initialize default copy ctor, which is
deleted due to unique ptr.
* Remove commented code.
* Remove warning for calling host function (std::max).
* Remove warning for initialization order.
* Remove warning for unused variables.
* Fix external memory for get column batches.
This fixes two bugs:
* Use PushCSC for get column batches.
* Don't remove the created temporary directory before finishing test.
* Check all pages.
* DMatrix refactor 2
* Remove buffered rowset usage where possible
* Transition to c++11 style iterators for row access
* Transition column iterators to C++ 11
* Add basic Span class based on ISO++20.
* Use Span<Entry const> instead of Inst in SparsePage.
* Add DeviceSpan in HostDeviceVector, use it in regression obj.
* Use sparse page as singular CSR matrix representation
* Simplify dmatrix methods
* Reduce statefullness of batch iterators
* BREAKING CHANGE: Remove prob_buffer_row parameter. Users are instead recommended to sample their dataset as a preprocessing step before using XGBoost.
* Fix various typos
* Add override to functions that are overridden
gcc gives warnings about functions that are being overridden by not
being marked as oveirridden. This fixes it.
* Use bst_float consistently
Use bst_float for all the variables that involve weight,
leaf value, gradient, hessian, gain, loss_chg, predictions,
base_margin, feature values.
In some cases, when due to additions and so on the value can
take a larger value, double is used.
This ensures that type conversions are minimal and reduces loss of
precision.
