This makes GPU Hist robust in distributed environment as some workers might not
be associated with any data in either training or evaluation.
* Disable rabit mock test for now: See #5012 .
* Disable dask-cudf test at prediction for now: See #5003
* Launch dask job for all workers despite they might not have any data.
* Check 0 rows in elementwise evaluation metrics.
Using AUC and AUC-PR still throws an error. See #4663 for a robust fix.
* Add tests for edge cases.
* Add `LaunchKernel` wrapper handling zero sized grid.
* Move some parts of allreducer into a cu file.
* Don't validate feature names when the booster is empty.
* Sync number of columns in DMatrix.
As num_feature is required to be the same across all workers in data split
mode.
* Filtering in dask interface now by default syncs all booster that's not
empty, instead of using rank 0.
* Fix Jenkins' GPU tests.
* Install dask-cuda from source in Jenkins' test.
Now all tests are actually running.
* Restore GPU Hist tree synchronization test.
* Check UUID of running devices.
The check is only performed on CUDA version >= 10.x, as 9.x doesn't have UUID field.
* Fix CMake policy and project variables.
Use xgboost_SOURCE_DIR uniformly, add policy for CMake >= 3.13.
* Fix copying data to CPU
* Fix race condition in cpu predictor.
* Fix duplicated DMatrix construction.
* Don't download extra nccl in CI script.
* Refactor CMake scripts.
* Remove CMake CUDA wrapper.
* Bump CMake version for CUDA.
* Use CMake to handle Doxygen.
* Split up CMakeList.
* Export install target.
* Use modern CMake.
* Remove build.sh
* Workaround for gpu_hist test.
* Use cmake 3.12.
* Revert machine.conf.
* Move CLI test to gpu.
* Small cleanup.
* Support using XGBoost as submodule.
* Fix windows
* Fix cpp tests on Windows
* Remove duplicated find_package.
* 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
* [R] fix finding R.exe with cmake on WIN when it is in PATH
* [R] appveyor config for R package
* [R] wrap the lines to make R check happier
* [R] install only binary dep-packages in appveyor
* [R] for MSVC appveyor, also build a binary for R package and keep as an artifact
* [R] MSVC compatibility
* [GPU] allow seed in BernoulliRng up to size_t and scale to uint32_t
* R package build with cmake and CUDA
* R package CUDA build fixes and cleanups
* always export the R package native initialization routine on windows
* update the install instructions doc
* fix lint
* use static_cast directly to set BernoulliRng seed
* [R] demo for GPU accelerated algorithm
* tidy up the R package cmake stuff
* R pack cmake: installs main dependency packages if needed
* [R] version bump in DESCRIPTION
* update NEWS
* added short missing/sparse values explanations to FAQ
