"""
Initializes the default distributed process group, and this will also
initialize the distributed package.
There are 2 main ways to initialize a process group:
1. Specify ``store``, ``rank``, and ``world_size`` explicitly.
2. Specify ``init_method`` (a URL string) which indicates where/how
to discover peers. Optionally specify ``rank`` and ``world_size``,
or encode all required parameters in the URL and omit them.
If neither is specified, ``init_method`` is assumed to be "env://".
Args:
backend (str or Backend): The backend to use. Depending on
build-time configurations, valid values include ``mpi``, ``gloo``,
and ``nccl``. This field should be given as a lowercase string
(e.g., ``"gloo"``), which can also be accessed via
:class:`Backend` attributes (e.g., ``Backend.GLOO``). If using
multiple processes per machine with ``nccl`` backend, each process
must have exclusive access to every GPU it uses, as sharing GPUs
between processes can result in deadlocks.
init_method (str, optional): URL specifying how to initialize the
process group. Default is "env://" if no
``init_method`` or ``store`` is specified.
Mutually exclusive with ``store``.
world_size (int, optional): Number of processes participating in
the job. Required if ``store`` is specified.
rank (int, optional): Rank of the current process (it should be a
number between 0 and ``world_size``-1).
Required if ``store`` is specified.
store(Store, optional): Key/value store accessible to all workers, used
to exchange connection/address information.
Mutually exclusive with ``init_method``.
timeout (timedelta, optional): Timeout for operations executed against
the process group. Default value equals 30 minutes.
This is applicable for the ``gloo`` backend. For ``nccl``, this is
applicable only if the environment variable ``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT``
or ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` is set to 1. When
``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT`` is set, this is the duration for which the
process will block and wait for collectives to complete before
throwing an exception. When ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` is set,
this is the duration after which collectives will be aborted
asynchronously and the process will crash. ``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT``
will provide errors to the user which can be caught and handled,
but due to its blocking nature, it has a performance overhead. On
the other hand, ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` has very little
performance overhead, but crashes the process on errors. This is
done since CUDA execution is async and it is no longer safe to
continue executing user code since failed async NCCL operations
might result in subsequent CUDA operations running on corrupted
data. Only one of these two environment variables should be set.
group_name (str, optional, deprecated): Group name.
pg_options (ProcessGroupOptions, optional): process group options
specifying what additional options need to be passed in during
the construction of specific process groups. i.e. for the ``nccl``
backend, ``is_high_priority_stream`` can be specified so that
process group can pick up high priority cuda streams.
.. note:: Note that if passing in pg_options and set the ``pg_options.timeout``,
it will override the default timeout of the ``timeout`` argument.
.. note:: To enable ``backend == Backend.MPI``, PyTorch needs to be built from source
on a system that supports MPI.

.. note:: For NCCL-based processed groups, internal tensor representations
of objects must be moved to the GPU device before communication takes
place. In this case, the device used is given by
``torch.cuda.current_device()`` and it is the user's responsiblity to
ensure that this is set so that each rank has an individual GPU, via
``torch.cuda.set_device()``.
.. note:: Note that this API differs slightly from the :func:`all_gather`
collective since it does not provide an ``async_op`` handle and thus
will be a blocking call.
.. warning::
:func:`broadcast_object_list` uses ``pickle`` module implicitly, which
is known to be insecure. It is possible to construct malicious pickle
data which will execute arbitrary code during unpickling. Only call this
function with data you trust.

Synchronizes all processes similar to torch.distributed.barrier, but takes
a configurable timeout and is able to report ranks that did not pass this
barrier within that timeout. Specifically, for non-zero ranks, will block
until a send/recv is processed from rank 0. Rank 0 will block until all send
/recv from other ranks are processed, and will report failures for ranks
that failed to respond in time. Note that if one rank does not reach the
monitored_barrier (for example due to a hang), all other ranks would fail
in monitored_barrier.
This collective will block all processes/ranks in the group, until the
whole group exits the function successfully, making it useful for debugging
and synchronizing. However, it can have a performance impact and should only
be used for debugging or scenarios that require full synhcronization points
on the host-side. For debugging purposees, this barrier can be inserted
before the application's collective calls to check if any ranks are
desynchronized.
.. note:: Note that this collective is only supported with the GLOO backend.
Args:
group (ProcessGroup, optional): The process group to work on. If
``None``, the default process group will be used.
timeout (datetime.timedelta, optional): Timeout for monitored_barrier.
If ``None``, the default process group timeout will be used.
wait_all_ranks (bool, optional): Whether to collect all failed ranks or
not. By default, this is ``False`` and ``monitored_barrier`` on rank 0
will throw on the first failed rank it encounters in order to fail
fast. By setting ``wait_all_ranks=True`` ``monitored_barrier`` will
collect all failed ranks and throw an error containing information
about all failed ranks.
Returns:
``None``.
Example::
>>> # Note: Process group initialization omitted on each rank.
>>> import torch.distributed as dist
>>> if dist.get_rank() != 1:
>>> dist.monitored_barrier() # Raises exception indicating that
>>> # rank 1 did not call into monitored_barrier.
>>> # Example with wait_all_ranks=True
>>> if dist.get_rank() == 0:
>>> dist.monitored_barrier(wait_all_ranks=True) # Raises exception
>>> # indicating that ranks 1, 2, ... world_size - 1 did not call into

Creates a new distributed group.
This function requires that all processes in the main group (i.e. all
processes that are part of the distributed job) enter this function, even
if they are not going to be members of the group. Additionally, groups
should be created in the same order in all processes.
.. warning::
Using multiple process groups with the ``NCCL`` backend concurrently
is not safe and the user should perform explicit synchronization in
their application to ensure only one process group is used at a time.
This means collectives from one process group should have completed
execution on the device (not just enqueued since CUDA execution is
async) before collectives from another process group are enqueued.
See `Using multiple NCCL communicators concurrently <https://docs.nvid
ia.com/deeplearning/nccl/user-guide/docs/usage/communicators.html#using
-multiple-nccl-communicators-concurrently>`_ for more details.
Args:
ranks (list[int]): List of ranks of group members. If ``None``, will be
set to all ranks. Default is ``None``.
timeout (timedelta, optional): Timeout for operations executed against
the process group. Default value equals 30 minutes.
This is applicable for the ``gloo`` backend. For ``nccl``, this is
applicable only if the environment variable ``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT``
or ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` is set to 1. When
``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT`` is set, this is the duration for which the
process will block and wait for collectives to complete before
throwing an exception. When ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` is set,
this is the duration after which collectives will be aborted
asynchronously and the process will crash. ``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT``
will provide errors to the user which can be caught and handled,
but due to its blocking nature, it has a performance overhead. On
the other hand, ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` has very little
performance overhead, but crashes the process on errors. This is
done since CUDA execution is async and it is no longer safe to
continue executing user code since failed async NCCL operations
might result in subsequent CUDA operations running on corrupted
data. Only one of these two environment variables should be set.
backend (str or Backend, optional): The backend to use. Depending on
build-time configurations, valid values are ``gloo`` and ``nccl``.
By default uses the same backend as the global group. This field
should be given as a lowercase string (e.g., ``"gloo"``), which can
also be accessed via :class:`Backend` attributes (e.g.,
``Backend.GLOO``). If ``None`` is passed in, the backend
corresponding to the default process group will be used. Default is
``None``.
pg_options (ProcessGroupOptions, optional): process group options
specifying what additional options need to be passed in during
the construction of specific process groups. i.e. for the ``nccl``
backend, is_high_priority_stream can be specified so that process
group can pick up high priority cuda streams.
Returns:
A handle of distributed group that can be given to collective calls.
