Text Generation Inference for Compute Canada and Mila

Setups a runtime for https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference, which can run nativly on Compute Canada and Mila clusters.

  • TGI version: 1.4.4
  • enabled features: [bnb, accelerate, quantize, peft, outlines]
  • Flash-attention version: 2.3.2

Compile release

Mila

From a login node install micromamba:

cd ~/ && curl -Ls https://micro.mamba.pm/api/micromamba/linux-64/latest | tar -xvj bin/micromamba

Then schedule the compile script. Note that this script does not support preemption, so it uses the unkillable-cpu partition. The release will then be saved in $HOME/tgi-release, can be changed with the RELEASE_DIR.

sbatch tgi-compile-mila.sh

Compute Canada

The compile script needs an internet access and will therefore only work on Cedar. However, once compiled you can copy the release to any other compute canada cluster (tested with Narval).

sbatch tgi-compile-cc.sh

Note that Cedar does not permit the log files to be stored on $HOME. So start the script from either ~/scratch or ~/projects.

Note, when using Globus to copy the compiled files, file permissions may not be transfered. For example, "Failed to start webserver: Permission denied (os error 13)" can be caused by missing file permissions. To set permissions, run:

chmod +x ~/tgi-release/bin/text-generation-benchmark
chmod +x ~/tgi-release/bin/text-generation-launcher
chmod +x ~/tgi-release/bin/text-generation-router

Download model

This script must be either run on Cedar or Mila, as those are the only clusters with internet access. If downloaded on Cedar, the downloaded files in $SCRATCH/tgi can be transfered easily to other clusters with https://globus.alliancecan.ca. The directory can also be changed with TGI_DIR.

For some models, like Llama 2, you will need to generate a read access token. You can do so here: https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens and provide it via the optional HF_TOKEN variable.

sbatch --export=ALL,HF_TOKEN=hf_abcdef,MODEL_ID=tiiuae/falcon-7b-instruct tgi-download-{mila,cc}.sh

Start server

It is recommended to only run the server on a A100 GPU, or perhaps newer, this is due to the "Nvidia compute capability". To start the server use:

sbatch --export=ALL,MODEL_ID=tiiuae/falcon-7b-instruct tgi-server-{mila,cc}.sh

Or use the bash script directly:

MODEL_ID=tiiuae/falcon-7b-instruct bash tgi-server-{mila,cc}.sh

Remember to chose either mila or cc (compute canada) accordingly.

This script creates a job called tgi, you may follow it with:

squeue -i 2 -n tgi -u $USER --format="%.8i %.8T %9N"

Wed Jul 26 08:52:33 2023
   JOBID    STATE NODELIST
 3430148  PENDING

Wed Jul 26 08:52:35 2023
   JOBID    STATE NODELIST
 3430148  RUNNING cn-g017

Once running, the server will eventually listen to:

  • PORT: $(expr 10000 + $(echo -n $SLURM_JOBID | tail -c 4))
  • ADDR: "0.0.0.0"

A simple example to check that the server is running and working. Remember to change the JobID and PORT.

curl http://cn-g017:10148/generate \
  -X POST \
  -d '{"inputs":"What is Deep Learning?","parameters":{"max_new_tokens":20}}' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json'

You can port-forward via ssh, such that you have access to the server locally. For example:

ssh -N -f -L localhost:20001:cn-g017:10148 mila

Required resources

This is a list of configurations that are confirmed to work on the Mila cluster. Less resources may be possible. If you are using the server interactively, you may benifit from using --partition=short-unkillable which allow a 3 hour, 4 GPU job.

The specific memory and compute utilization, will depend on the inputs. Those numbers are just for one large input. TGI will batch multiple inputs of similar lengths.

Multiple instances on the same job

Because configuration is based on the $SLURM_JOBID and $SLURM_TMPDIR, you will need to modify some paramaters to run multiple instances in the same job. In particular, TMP_PYENV, SHARD_UDS_PATH, PORT, MASTER_PORT, CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES, and NUM_SHARD.

Example script to start both meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-chat-hf and tiiuae/falcon-40b-instruct on Mila:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -J tgi-server
#SBATCH --output=%x.%j.out
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=24
#SBATCH --gpus-per-task=a100l:4
#SBATCH --ntasks=1
#SBATCH --constraint=ampere&nvlink
#SBATCH --mem=128G
#SBATCH --time=2:59:00
#SBATCH --partition=short-unkillable

Arguments

Required

Only specify one of these parameters:

MODEL_ID (download and server script only) The name of the model to load or download. When downloading, the model will be downloaded from hf.co/$MODEL_ID.

MODEL_PATH (download and server script only)

If the model is not a hf.co/ repository, you can use MODEL_PATH to point to a local repository (directory) instead. This repository needs to have the same Huggingface format as a hf.co/ repository. This can typically be done with model.save_pretrained(repo_dir) and tokenizer.save_pretrained(repo_dir).

Optional script parameters

These should be set for all scripts if modified. For example:

sbatch --export=ALL,RELEASE_DIR=$HOME/tgi-custom tgi-compile-mila.sh # custom

RELEASE_DIR Points to the directory where the compiled files exists. Needs to be the same for every script.

Default: $HOME/tgi-release.

TGI_DIR (download and server script only) Points to the directory where model weights and configurations are saved. Needs to be the same for the tgi-download and tgi-server scripts.

Default: $SCRATCH/tgi.

TGI_TMP The directory where the temporary python enviorment will be created.

Default: $SLURM_TMPDIR/tgi.

WORK_DIR (compile script only) The directory where the temporary source files will be stored.

Default: $SLURM_TMPDIR/workspace.

Optional TGI Parameters

These parameters only apply to the tgi-server-{mila,cc}.sh scripts.

NUM_SHARD The number of shards to use if you don't want to use all GPUs on a given machine. You can use CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1 NUM_SHARD=2 and CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=2,3 NUM_SHARD=2 to launch 2 copies with 2 shard each on a given machine with 4 GPUs for instance.

QUANTIZE Whether you want the model to be quantized. This will use bitsandbytes for quantization on the fly, or gptq

Possible values: bitsandbytes, gptq

DTYPE The dtype to be forced upon the model. This option cannot be used with --quantize

Possible values: float16, bfloat16

MAX_BEST_OF This is the maximum allowed value for clients to set best_of. Best of makes n generations at the same time, and return the best in terms of overall log probability over the entire generated sequence

MAX_STOP_SEQUENCES This is the maximum allowed value for clients to set stop_sequences. Stop sequences are used to allow the model to stop on more than just the EOS token, and enable more complex "prompting" where users can preprompt the model in a specific way and define their "own" stop token aligned with their prompt

MAX_INPUT_LENGTH This is the maximum allowed input length (expressed in number of tokens) for users. The larger this value, the longer prompt users can send which can impact the overall memory required to handle the load. Please note that some models have a finite range of sequence they can handle

MAX_TOTAL_TOKENS This is the most important value to set as it defines the "memory budget" of running clients requests. Clients will send input sequences and ask to generate max_new_tokens on top. with a value of 1512 users can send either a prompt of 1000 and ask for 512 new tokens, or send a prompt of 1 and ask for 1511 max_new_tokens. The larger this value, the larger amount each request will be in your RAM and the less effective batching can be

TRUST_REMOTE_CODE

Whether you want to execute hub modelling code. Explicitly passing a revision is encouraged when loading a model with custom code to ensure no malicious code has been contributed in a newer revision.

PORT The port to listen on

Default: $(expr 10000 + $(echo -n $SLURM_JOBID | tail -c 4))

SHARD_UDS_PATH The name of the socket for gRPC communication between the webserver and the shards

Default: $TGI_TMP/socket

MASTER_PORT The address the master port will listen on. (setting used by torch distributed)

Default: $(expr 20000 + $(echo -n $SLURM_JOBID | tail -c 4))

Differences from Docker image

https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference offers a docker image of TGI. Best efforts are made to keep this variant of TGI as close to the docker image. However, some changes have been made:

  1. TGI Docker image uses flash-attention v2.4.1 with a fallback to flash-attention v1.0.9. Meaning both versions exists in the docker image. The older flash-attention exists to support older GPUs, however these are not used on Mila or Compute Canada, therefore they are not included. Also, it takes a really long time to compile flash-attention and two versions of flash-attention can only exist with some hacks.
  2. The version of some dependency packages, such as numpy, may have slighly different versions on Compute Canada. This is because Compute Canada does not provide those exact versions in their wheelhouse.
