1. Fix RCCL unit test
2. Add ROME detection and tuning
3. Change default P2P level
4. Fix search algorithm for XGMI
5. Remove explicit channel duplication with implicit by using half of link speed
6. Add collective trace support
7. Correct Intel Skylake CPU detection and bandwidth
8. Fix topo connect function
9. Disable GDR read and remove unreachable code
10. Disable LL128 kernels
11. Add tuning parameters
12. Use original clock64() implementation which returns RTC counter value
13. Print out timestamp of collective trace
14. Do not use struct ncclColl in kernel launch parameter
15. Fix abort handling and add tracing
17. Add __launch_bounds__ to kernel functions
18. Remove unused abortCount
19. Unset default MIN_NRINGS and MIN_NCHANNELS
20. Do not allocate shared memory when not using LL128 kernels
21. Correct time print out in tuning log
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
Summary:
1. remove the noinline attribute for AllReduceThreeKernel;
2. change AUTPUNROLL for tree functions to 1 or 2;
Combining 1 and 2 will reduce the scratch usage from 1256 to 952
