I'm not using megatron-deepspeed because some features are missing
from deepspeed.
I did further tests, it can be reproduced in a single node with multiple GPU's. The key to reproduce is to enable data parallel, so the problem probably lies somewhere in the gradient reduction code.
from deepspeed.
After reading stage_1_and_2.py
for a couple of times, I think the problem may be in the backward()
method, I may not fully understand the source code, any comments are welcome:
- In certain setup,
DeepSpeedZeroOptimizer
may callself.create_reduce_and_remove_grad_hooks()
to register a gradient reduction hook.- in my case set
overlap_comm
toTrue
will trigger this call, I didn't realize this until now.
- in my case set
- When
loss.backward()
is called, the registered hook is called. - In the registered hook function,
reduce_independent_p_g_buckets_and_remove_grads()
will be called whenis_gradient_accumulation_boundary
isTrue
. - Inside
reduce_independent_p_g_buckets_and_remove_grads()
,get_gradient_for_reduction()
will be called to access the accumulated gradients.grad_accum
, which is updated by callingfill_grad_accum_attribute()
. - However, in the
backward()
method,fill_grad_accum_attribute()
is called afterloss.backward()
. - So basically when
is_gradient_accumulation_boundary
isTrue
,get_gradient_for_reduction()
will access the accumulated gradients before the finalfill_grad_accum_attribute()
call.
BTW, I think this is also the root cause of bug #5174 which is easily reproducible with the provided source code.
