Add LL128 Protocol.
Rewrite the topology detection and tree/ring creation (#179). Improve
tree performance by sending/receiving from different GPUs. Add
model-based tuning to switch between the different algorithms and
protocols.
Rework P2P/SHM detection in containers (#155, #248).
Detect duplicated devices and return an error (#231).
Add tuning for GCP
Added detection of IBM/Power NVLink bridge device.
Add NUMA support to PCI distance calculations.
Added NCCL_IGNORE_CPU_AFFINITY env var.
Fix memory leaks; GithubIssue#180
Compiler warning fix; GithubIssue#178
Replace non-standard variable length arrays. GithubIssue#171
Fix Tree+Shared Memory crash. GithubPR#185
Fix LL cleanup hang during long running DL jobs.
Fix NCCL_RINGS environment variable handling.
Added extra checks to catch repeat calls to ncclCommDestroy() GithubIssue#191
Improve bootstrap socket connection reliability at scale.
Fix hostname hashing issue. GithubIssue#187
Code cleanup to rename all non device files from *.cu to *.cc
Current SHM object name would only use pidHash and ranks as
identification, which would collide each other when program runs with
multiple communicators. Here we added commId info into pidHash, it makes
'pidHash'es of different communicators keeping in same process will be
distincted with each other.
Add tree algorithms for allreduce to improve performance at scale.
Add ncclCommAbort() and ncclCommGetAsyncError() to properly handle
network errors and be permit recover.
Detect initial CPU affinity and no longer escape it.
Dynamically load external network from libnccl-net.so.
Add init function in networks.
Move PCI scoring to net.cu, only ask transport to provide a path.
Simplify CUDA PCI path detection.
Add dummy external network
Improved LL tuning for multi-node jobs.
Improved bootstrap for large job scaling.
Fixed a hang during bootstrap due to socket reuse.
Added operation name to the COLL INFO logging.
Add support for inter-node communication using sockets and InfiniBand/RoCE.
Improve latency.
Add support for aggregation.
Improve LL/regular tuning.
Remove tests as those are now at github.com/nvidia/nccl-tests .
