Set auto parallel context, only data parallel supported on CPU.
Note:
Attribute name is required for setting attributes.
If a program has tasks on different parallel modes, before setting a new parallel mode for the
next task, interface :func:`mindspore.reset_auto_parallel_context` should be called to reset
the configuration.
Setting or changing parallel modes must be called before creating any Initializer, otherwise,
it may have RuntimeError when compiling the network.
Some configurations are parallel mode specific, see the below table for details:

=========================== ===========================
Args:
device_num (int): Available device number, the value must be in [1, 4096]. Default: 1.
global_rank (int): Global rank id, the value must be in [0, 4095]. Default: 0.
gradients_mean (bool): Whether to perform mean operator after allreduce of gradients.
"stand_alone" do not support gradients_mean. Default: False.
gradient_fp32_sync (bool): Run allreduce of gradients in fp32. "stand_alone", "data_parallel"
and "hybrid_parallel" do not support gradient_fp32_sync. Default: True.
parallel_mode (str): There are five kinds of parallel modes, "stand_alone", "data_parallel",
"hybrid_parallel", "semi_auto_parallel" and "auto_parallel". Note the pynative mode only supports
the "stand_alone" and "data_parallel" mode. Default: "stand_alone".
- stand_alone: Only one processor is working.
- data_parallel: Distributes the data across different processors.
- hybrid_parallel: Achieves data parallelism and model parallelism manually.
- semi_auto_parallel: Achieves data and model parallelism by setting parallel strategies.
- auto_parallel: Achieving parallelism automatically.
search_mode (str): There are three kinds of shard strategy search modes: "recursive_programming",
"dynamic_programming" and "sharding_propagation". Default: "dynamic_programming".
- recursive_programming: Recursive programming search mode.
- dynamic_programming: Dynamic programming search mode.
- sharding_propagation: Propagate shardings from configured ops to non-configured ops.
auto_parallel_search_mode (str): This is the old version of 'search_mode'. Here, remaining this attribute is
for forward compatibility, and this attribute will be deleted in a future MindSpore version.
parameter_broadcast (bool): Whether to broadcast parameters before training. Before training, in order to have
the same network initialization parameter values for all devices, broadcast the parameters
on device 0 to other devices. Parameter broadcasting in different parallel modes is different,
data_parallel mode, all parameters are broadcast except for the parameter whose attribute
layerwise_parallel is True. Hybrid_parallel, semi_auto_parallel and auto_parallel mode, the
segmented parameters do not participate in broadcasting. Default: False.
strategy_ckpt_load_file (str): The path to load parallel strategy checkpoint. Default: ''
strategy_ckpt_save_file (str): The path to save parallel strategy checkpoint. Default: ''
full_batch (bool): If you load whole batch datasets in auto_parallel mode, this parameter
should be set as True. Default: False. The interface is not to be recommended currently,
it is better using 'dataset_strategy' to replace it.
dataset_strategy (Union[str, tuple]): Dataset sharding strategy. Default: "data_parallel".
dataset_strategy="data_parallel" is equal to full_batch=False, dataset_strategy="full_batch" is
equal to full_batch=True. For dataset load into net by model parallel strategy likes
ds_stra ((1, 8), (1, 8)), it requires using set_auto_parallel_context(dataset_strategy=ds_stra).
enable_parallel_optimizer (bool): This is a developing feature, which shards the weight update computation for
data parallel training in the benefit of time and memory saving. Currently, auto and semi auto
parallel mode support all optimizers in both Ascend and GPU. Data parallel mode only supports
`Lamb` and `AdamWeightDecay` in Ascend . Default: False.
enable_alltoall (bool): A switch that allows AllToAll operators to be generated during communication. If its
value is False, there will be a combination of operators such as AllGather, Split and Concat
instead of AllToAll. Default: False.
all_reduce_fusion_config (list): Set allreduce fusion strategy by parameters indices. Only support ReduceOp.SUM
and HCCL_WORLD_GROUP/NCCL_WORLD_GROUP. No Default, if it is not set, the fusion is closed.
pipeline_stages (int): Set the stage information for pipeline parallel. This indicates how the devices are
distributed alone in the pipeline. The total devices will be divided into 'pipeline_stags'
stages. Currently, this could only be used when parallel mode semi_auto_parallel is enabled.
Default: 1.
grad_accumulation_step (int): Set the accumulation steps of gradients in auto and semi auto parallel mode.
This should be a positive int. Default: 1.
parallel_optimizer_config (dict): A dict contains the keys and values for setting the parallel optimizer
configure. The configure provides more detailed behavior control about parallel training
when parallel optimizer is enabled. Currently it supports the key `gradient_accumulation_shard`.
The configure will be effective when we use
mindspore.set_auto_parallel_context(enable_parallel_optimizer=True).
It supports the following keys.
- gradient_accumulation_shard(bool): If true, the accumulation gradient parameters will be
sharded across the data parallel devices. This will
introduce additional communication(ReduceScatter) at
each step when accumulate the gradients, but saves a
lot of device memories, thus can make model be trained
with larger batch size. This configure is effective only
when the model runs on pipeline training or gradient
accumulation with data parallel. Default True.
- parallel_optimizer_threshold(int): Set the threshold of parallel optimizer. When parallel
optimizer is enabled, parameters with size smaller than this threshold will not be sharded
across the devices. Parameter size = shape[0] \* ... \* shape[n] \* size(dtype). Non-negative.
Unit: KB. Default: 64.
comm_fusion (dict): A dict contains the types and configurations for setting the communication fusion. each
communication fusion config has two keys: "mode" and "config".
It supports following communication fusion types and configurations:
- allreduce: If communication fusion type is `allreduce`. The `mode` contains: `auto`, `size`
and `index`. In `auto` mode, AllReduce fusion is configured by gradients size and the default
fusion threshold is `64` MB. In 'size' mode, AllReduce fusion is configured by gradients size
manually, and the fusion threshold must be larger than `0` MB. In `index` mode, it is same as
`all_reduce_fusion_config`.
- allgather: If communication fusion type is `allgather`. The `mode` contains: `auto`, `size`.
In `auto` mode, AllGather fusion is configured by gradients size, and the default fusion
threshold is `64` MB. In 'size' mode, AllGather fusion is configured by gradients size
manually, and the fusion threshold must be larger than `0` MB.
- reducescatter: If communication fusion type is `reducescatter`. The `mode` contains: `auto`
and `size`. Config is same as `allgather`.
Raises:
ValueError: If input key is not attribute in auto parallel context.

Args:
device_id (int): ID of the target device, the value must be in [0, device_num_per_host-1],
while device_num_per_host should be no more than 4096. Default: 0.
device_target (str): The target device to run, support "Ascend", "GPU", and "CPU".
If device target is not set, the version of MindSpore package is used.
max_device_memory (str): Set the maximum memory available for devices. The format is "xxGB". Default: "1024GB".
The actual used memory size is the minimum of the available memory of the device and max_device_memory.
variable_memory_max_size (str): This parameter is deprecated, and will be removed in a future version.
Please use parameter 'max_device_memory' instead.
mempool_block_size (str): Set the size of the memory pool block in PyNative mode for devices.
The format is "xxGB". Default: "1GB". Minimum size is "1G". The actual used memory block size is the minimum
of the available memory of the device and mempool_block_size.
op_timeout (int): Set the maximum duration of executing an operator in seconds.
If the execution time exceeds this value, system will terminate the task. 0 means endless wait.
Default: 0.
save_graphs (bool): Whether to save graphs. Default: False.
When the `save_graphs` attribute is set as True, attribute of `save_graphs_path` is used to set the
intermediate compilation graph storage path. By default, the graphs are saved in the current directory.
save_graphs_path (str): Path to save graphs. Default: ".".
If the specified directory does not exist, the system will automatically create the directory.
During distributed training, graphs will be saved to the directory of
`save_graphs_path/rank_${rank_id}/`. `rank_id` is the ID of the current device in the cluster.
enable_dump (bool): This parameters is deprecated, and will be deleted in the next version.
save_dump_path (str): This parameters is deprecated, and will be deleted in the next version.
print_file_path (str): The path of saving print data. If this parameter is set, print data is saved to
a file by default, and print_file_path is not set, the screen will be displayed.
If the saved file already exists, the timestamp suffix will be added to the file. Saving data to a file
solves the problem of data loss in screen printing when a large amount of data is generated.
If it is not set, an error will be reported: prompt to set the upper absolute path.
env_config_path (str): Config path for DFX.
Through mindspore.set_context(env_config_path="./mindspore_config.json")
configure RDR:
- enable: controls whether the RDR is enabled to collect the key data during training and
save key data in the fault scenario. When set to true, the RDR will be turned on.
When set to false, the RDR will be turned off.
- mode: sets the mode of RDR on exporting data. When set to 1, the RDR only exports data
in the fault scenario. When set to 2, the RDR exports data in the fault scenario and the
normal end scenario. Default is 1.
- path: sets the path where RDR saves data. The current path must be absolute.
Memory reuse:
- mem_Reuse: controls whether the memory reuse function is turned on. When set to True,
- the memory reuse function is turned on. When set to False, the memory reuse function is turned off.
precompile_only (bool): Whether to only precompile the network. Default: False.
If set to True, the network will only be compiled, not executed.
reserve_class_name_in_scope (bool) : Whether to save the network class name in the scope. Default: True.
Each node has a scope. A scope of a subnode is the name of its parent node. If reserve_class_name_in_scope
is set to True, the class name will be saved after keyword 'net-' in the scope.
For example:
Default/net-Net1/net-Net2 (reserve_class_name_in_scope=True)
Default/net/net (reserve_class_name_in_scope=False)
pynative_synchronize (bool): Whether to enable synchronous execution of the device in PyNative mode.
Default: False. When the value is set to False, the operator is executed asynchronously on the device.
When an error occurs in the execution of the operator, the specific error script code location cannot
be located, when the value is set to True, the operator is executed synchronously on the device. It will
reduce the execution performance of the program. At this time, when an error occurs in the execution of
the operator, the location of the error script code can be located according to the call stack of the error.
mode (int): Running in GRAPH_MODE(0) or PYNATIVE_MODE(1). Default: GRAPH_MODE(0).
GRAPH_MODE or PYNATIVE_MODE can be set by `mode` attribute and both modes support all backends, default
mode is GRAPH_MODE.
enable_graph_kernel (bool): Whether to enable graph kernel fusion to optimize network execution performance.
Default: False.
Indicates whether to enable image-computing convergence to optimize network execution performance.
If enable_graph_kernel is set to True, acceleration can be enabled.
For details of graph kernel fusion, please check
`Enabling Graph Kernel Fusion
<https://www.mindspore.cn/tutorials/experts/en/r1.9/debug/graph_fusion_engine.html>`_.
graph_kernel_flags (str):
Optimization options of graph kernel fusion, and the priority is higher when it conflicts
with enable_graph_kernel. Only for experienced users.
For example, mindspore.set_context(graph_kernel_flags="--opt_level=2 --dump_as_text"). Some general options:
- opt_level: Set the optimization level.
Default: 2. Graph kernel fusion can be enabled equivalently by setting opt_level greater than 0.
Available values are:
- 0: disables graph kernel fusion;
- 1: enables the basic fusion of operators;
- 2: includes all optimizations of level 1,
and turns on more optimizations such as CSE, arithmetic simplification and so on;
- 3: includes all optimizations of level 2, and turns on more optimizations such as SitchingFusion,
ParallelFusion and so on. Optimizations of this level are radical and unstable in some scenarios.
Be caution when using this level.
- dump_as_text: dumps detail info as text files. Default: false.
More options can refer to the implementation code.
enable_reduce_precision (bool): Whether to enable precision reduction.
If the operator does not support the user-specified precision, the precision will
be changed automatically. Default: True.
auto_tune_mode (str): The mode of auto tune when op building, get the best tiling performance.
Default: NO_TUNE. The value must be in ['RL', 'GA', 'RL,GA'].
- RL: Reinforcement Learning tune.
- GA: Genetic Algorithm tune.
- RL,GA: When both RL and GA optimization are enabled, the tool automatically selects RL or GA based on
different types of operators in the network model. The sequence of RL and GA is not differentiated.
(Automatic selection).
For more information about the enable operator tuning tool settings, please check
`Enable the operator optimization tool
<https://www.mindspore.cn/tutorials/experts/en/r1.9/debug/auto_tune.html>`_.
check_bprop (bool): Whether to check back propagation nodes. The checking ensures that the shape and dtype
of back propagation node outputs is the same as input parameters. Default: False.
max_call_depth (int): Specify the maximum depth of function call. Must be positive integer. Default: 1000.
The max_call_depth parameter needs to be set when the nested call is too deep or the number
of subgraphs is too large. If max_call_depth is set larger than before, the system max stack depth should be
set larger too, otherwise a `core dumped` exception may be raised because of system stack overflow.
grad_for_scalar (bool): Whether to get gradient for scalar. Default: False.
When grad_for_scalar is set to True, the function's scalar input can be derived.
The default value is False. Because the back-end does not support scaling operations currently,
this interface only supports simple operations that can be deduced by the front-end.
enable_compile_cache (bool): Whether to save or load the cache of the graph compiled by front-end.
After enable_compile_cache is set to True, during the first execution, a hardware-independent
compilation cache is generated and exported to a MINDIR file. When the network is executed again,
if enable_compile_cache is still set to True and the network scripts are not changed,
the compile cache is loaded. Note that only limited automatic detection for the changes of
python scripts is supported by now, which means that there is a correctness risk. Default: False.
This is an experimental prototype that is subject to change and/or deletion.
compile_cache_path (str): Path to save the cache of the graph compiled by front-end. Default: ".".
If the specified directory does not exist, the system will automatically create the directory.
The cache will be saved to the directory of `compile_cache_path/rank_${rank_id}/`. The `rank_id` is
the ID of the current device in the cluster.
runtime_num_threads(int): The thread pool number of cpu kernel and actor used in runtime,
which must bigger than 0. Default value is 30, if you run many processes at
the same time, you should set the value smaller to avoid thread contention.
disable_format_transform (bool): Whether to disable the automatic format transform function from NCHW to NHWC.
When the network training performance of fp16 is worse than fp32,
`disable_format_transform` can be set to True to try to improve training performance. Default: False.
support_binary (bool): Whether to support run .pyc or .so in graph mode. If want to support run .so or .pyc
in graph mode, coulde set 'support_binary' to be True, and run once .py file. It would save the source
of the interfaces would be compiled by MindSpore to the interfaces definition .py file that should be
guaranteed to be writable. Then compile the .py file to the .pyc or .so file, and could run in Graph mode.
