這篇文章主要為大家介紹了NCCL深度學(xué)習(xí)Bootstrap網(wǎng)絡(luò)連接建立源碼解析，有需要的朋友可以借鑒參考下，希望能夠有所幫助，祝大家多多進(jìn)步，早日升職加薪

引言

上次介紹到rank0的機(jī)器生成了ncclUniqueId，并完成了機(jī)器的bootstrap網(wǎng)絡(luò)和通信網(wǎng)絡(luò)的初始化，這節(jié)接著看下所有節(jié)點(diǎn)間bootstrap的連接是如何建立的。

rank0節(jié)點(diǎn)執(zhí)行ncclGetUniqueId生成ncclUniqueId

通過mpi將Id廣播到所有節(jié)點(diǎn)，然后所有節(jié)點(diǎn)都會(huì)執(zhí)行ncclCommInitRank，這里其他節(jié)點(diǎn)也會(huì)進(jìn)行初始化bootstrap網(wǎng)絡(luò)和通信網(wǎng)絡(luò)的操作，然后會(huì)執(zhí)行到ncclCommInitRankSync。

ncclResult_t ncclCommInitRankSync(ncclComm_t* newcomm, int nranks, ncclUniqueId commId, int myrank, int cudaDev) {
  ncclResult_t res;
  CUDACHECK(cudaSetDevice(cudaDev));
  NCCLCHECKGOTO(commAlloc(newcomm, nranks, myrank), res, cleanup);
  NCCLCHECKGOTO(initTransportsRank(*newcomm, &commId), res, cleanup);
  NCCLCHECKGOTO(devCommSetup(*newcomm), res, cleanup);
  INFO(NCCL_INIT,"comm %p rank %d nranks %d cudaDev %d busId %x - Init COMPLETE", *newcomm, myrank, nranks, (*newcomm)->cudaDev, (*newcomm)->busId);
  return ncclSuccess;
cleanup:
  if ((*newcomm) && (*newcomm)->bootstrap) bootstrapAbort((*newcomm)->bootstrap);
  *newcomm = NULL;
  return res;
}

ncclComm_t是指向ncclComm的指針，ncclComm是一個(gè)大雜燴，包含了通信用到的所有上下文信息，里面的字段等用到的時(shí)候再介紹，然后通過commAlloc分配newcom，并且完成初始化，比如當(dāng)前是哪個(gè)卡，對應(yīng)的pcie busid是什么，

執(zhí)行initTransportsRank

static ncclResult_t initTransportsRank(struct ncclComm* comm, ncclUniqueId* commId) {
  // We use 3 AllGathers
  // 1. { peerInfo, comm }
  // 2. ConnectTransport[nranks], ConnectValue[nranks]
  // 3. { nThreads, nrings, compCap, prev[MAXCHANNELS], next[MAXCHANNELS] }
  int rank = comm->rank;
  int nranks = comm->nRanks;
  uint64_t commHash = getHash(commId->internal, NCCL_UNIQUE_ID_BYTES);
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "comm %p, commHash %lx, rank %d nranks %d - BEGIN", comm, commHash, rank, nranks);
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapInit(commId, rank, nranks, &comm->bootstrap));
  // AllGather1 - begin
  struct {
    struct ncclPeerInfo peerInfo;
    struct ncclComm* comm;
  } *allGather1Data;
  NCCLCHECK(ncclCalloc(&allGather1Data, nranks));
  allGather1Data[rank].comm = comm;
  struct ncclPeerInfo* myInfo = &allGather1Data[rank].peerInfo;
  NCCLCHECK(fillInfo(comm, myInfo, commHash));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapAllGather(comm->bootstrap, allGather1Data, sizeof(*allGather1Data)));
  NCCLCHECK(ncclCalloc(&comm->peerInfo, nranks+1)); // Extra rank to represent CollNet root
  for (int i = 0; i < nranks; i++) {
    memcpy(comm->peerInfo+i, &allGather1Data[i].peerInfo, sizeof(struct ncclPeerInfo));
    if ((i != rank) && (comm->peerInfo[i].hostHash == myInfo->hostHash) && (comm->peerInfo[i].busId == myInfo->busId)) {
      WARN("Duplicate GPU detected : rank %d and rank %d both on CUDA device %x", rank, i, myInfo->busId);
      return ncclInvalidUsage;
    }
  }

看下bootstrapInit

ncclResult_t bootstrapInit(ncclUniqueId * id, int rank, int nranks, void** commState) {
  ncclNetHandle_t* netHandle = (ncclNetHandle_t*) id;
  bool idFromEnv = getenv("NCCL_COMM_ID") != NULL;
  struct extState* state;
  NCCLCHECK(ncclCalloc(&state, 1));
  state->rank = rank;
  state->nranks = nranks;
  *commState = state;
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "rank %d nranks %d", rank, nranks);
  struct extInfo info = { 0 };
  info.rank = rank;
  info.nranks = nranks;
  void *tmpSendComm, *tmpRecvComm;
  // Pass the remote address to listen via info
  if (idFromEnv) {
    memcpy(&info.extHandleListen, netHandle, sizeof(ncclNetHandle_t));
    memcpy(&info.extHandleListenRoot, netHandle, sizeof(ncclNetHandle_t));
  }
  // listen will return the local address via info (specify interface type 'findSubnetIf')
  state->dev = idFromEnv ? findSubnetIf : 0;
  void* extBstrapListenCommRoot;
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetListen(state->dev, &info.extHandleListen, &state->extBstrapListenComm));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetListen(state->dev, &info.extHandleListenRoot, &extBstrapListenCommRoot));
  // stagger connection times to avoid an overload of the root at very high rank counts
  if (nranks > 128) {
    long msec = rank;
    struct timespec tv;
    tv.tv_sec = msec / 1000;
    tv.tv_nsec = 1000000 * (msec % 1000);
    TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "rank %d delaying connection to root by %ld msec", rank, msec);
    (void) nanosleep(&tv, NULL);
  }
  // send info on my listening socket to root
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetConnect(state->dev, netHandle, &tmpSendComm));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetSend(tmpSendComm, &info, sizeof(info)));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetCloseSend(tmpSendComm));
  // get info on my "next" rank in the bootstrap ring from root
}

首先看下commState

即ncclComm的bootstrap，類型為extState。

struct extState {
  void* extBstrapListenComm;
  void* extBstrapRingRecvComm;
  void* extBstrapRingSendComm;
  ncclNetHandle_t* peerBstrapHandles;
  struct unexConn* unexpectedConnections;
  int rank;
  int nranks;
  int dev;
};

其中extBstrapRingSendComm是當(dāng)前節(jié)點(diǎn)連接next的socket連接，extBstrapRingRecvComm是當(dāng)前節(jié)點(diǎn)和prev節(jié)點(diǎn)的socket連接，extBstrapListenComm是當(dāng)前節(jié)點(diǎn)的監(jiān)聽socket，peerBstrapHandles是所有rank的ip port（對應(yīng)extBstrapListenComm），dev默認(rèn)為0，表示用第幾個(gè)ip地址。

然后通過bootstrapNetListen創(chuàng)建extHandleListen和extHandleListenRoot兩個(gè)bootstrap comm，如前文所述，bootstrap comm其實(shí)就是保存了fd，這里創(chuàng)建兩個(gè)comm的原因是extHandleListen是rank之間實(shí)際使用的bootstrap連接，extHandleListenRoot是rank0節(jié)點(diǎn)和其他所有rank進(jìn)行通信使用的連接。

static ncclResult_t bootstrapNetListen(int dev, ncclNetHandle_t* netHandle, void** listenComm)

bootstrapNetListen函數(shù)上節(jié)有介紹過，會(huì)獲取到第dev個(gè)當(dāng)前機(jī)器的ip，然后listen獲取監(jiān)聽fd，將ip port寫到nethandle，獲取到的bootstrap comm寫到listencomm。

然后將rank，nrank，extHandleListen和extHandleListenRoot寫到extInfo里。

struct extInfo {
  int rank;
  int nranks;
  ncclNetHandle_t extHandleListenRoot;
  ncclNetHandle_t extHandleListen;
};

netHandle為ncclUniqueId，即rank0的ip port，然后通過bootstrapNetConnect創(chuàng)建bootstrap send comm，類比bootstrapNetListen，bootstrapNetConnect就是建立到netHandle的socket連接，將socket寫到sendComm里，這里dev并沒有用到。

static ncclResult_t bootstrapNetConnect(int dev, ncclNetHandle_t* netHandle, void** sendComm)

然后通過bootstrapNetSend將extInfo發(fā)送出去，即發(fā)給rank0：

static ncclResult_t bootstrapNetSend(void* sendComm, void* data, int size) {
  struct bootstrapNetComm* comm = (struct bootstrapNetComm*)sendComm;
  NCCLCHECK(socketSend(comm->fd, &size, sizeof(int)));
  NCCLCHECK(socketSend(comm->fd, data, size));
  return ncclSuccess;
}

其中socketSend就是執(zhí)行send接口發(fā)送數(shù)據(jù)。

然后通過bootstrapNetCloseSend關(guān)閉fd

rank0收到數(shù)據(jù)后會(huì)做什么工作呢，回顧一下，rank0的節(jié)執(zhí)行ncclGetUniqueId生成ncclUniqueId，其中在執(zhí)行bootstrapCreateRoot的最后會(huì)啟動(dòng)一個(gè)線程執(zhí)行bootstrapRoot。

static void *bootstrapRoot(void* listenComm) {
  struct extInfo info;
  ncclNetHandle_t *rankHandles = NULL;
  ncclNetHandle_t *rankHandlesRoot = NULL; // for initial rank <-> root information exchange
  ncclNetHandle_t zero = { 0 }; // for sanity checking
  void* tmpComm;
  ncclResult_t res;
  setFilesLimit();
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "BEGIN");
  /* Receive addresses from all ranks */
  int nranks = 0, c = 0;
  do {
    NCCLCHECKGOTO(bootstrapNetAccept(listenComm, &tmpComm), res, out);
    NCCLCHECKGOTO(bootstrapNetRecv(tmpComm, &info, sizeof(info)), res, out);
    NCCLCHECKGOTO(bootstrapNetCloseRecv(tmpComm), res, out);
    if (c == 0) {
      nranks = info.nranks;
      NCCLCHECKGOTO(ncclCalloc(&rankHandles, nranks), res, out);
      NCCLCHECKGOTO(ncclCalloc(&rankHandlesRoot, nranks), res, out);
    }
    if (nranks != info.nranks) {
      WARN("Bootstrap Root : mismatch in rank count from procs %d : %d", nranks, info.nranks);
      goto out;
    }
    if (memcmp(&zero, &rankHandlesRoot[info.rank], sizeof(ncclNetHandle_t)) != 0) {
      WARN("Bootstrap Root : rank %d of %d ranks has already checked in", info.rank, nranks);
      goto out;
    }
    // Save the connection handle for that rank
    memcpy(rankHandlesRoot+info.rank, info.extHandleListenRoot, sizeof(ncclNetHandle_t));
    memcpy(rankHandles+info.rank, info.extHandleListen, sizeof(ncclNetHandle_t));
    ++c;
    TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "Received connect from rank %d total %d/%d",  info.rank, c, nranks);
  } while (c < nranks);
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "COLLECTED ALL %d HANDLES", nranks);
  // Send the connect handle for the next rank in the AllGather ring
  for (int r=0; r<nranks; ++r) {
    int next = (r+1) % nranks;
    void *tmpSendComm;
    NCCLCHECKGOTO(bootstrapNetConnect(0, rankHandlesRoot+r, &tmpSendComm), res, out);
    NCCLCHECKGOTO(bootstrapNetSend(tmpSendComm, rankHandles+next, sizeof(ncclNetHandle_t)), res, out);
    NCCLCHECKGOTO(bootstrapNetCloseSend(tmpSendComm), res, out);
  }
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "SENT OUT ALL %d HANDLES", nranks);
out:
  bootstrapNetCloseListen(listenComm);
  if (rankHandles) free(rankHandles);
  if (rankHandlesRoot) free(rankHandlesRoot);
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "DONE");
  return NULL;
}

listenComm是上一個(gè)博文中rank0創(chuàng)建的監(jiān)聽fd，bootstrapNetAccept是從listenComm中獲取一個(gè)新連接，使用新連接的fd創(chuàng)建recvcomm。

static ncclResult_t bootstrapNetAccept(void* listenComm, void** recvComm)

然后通過bootstrapNetRecv讀取tmpComm的數(shù)據(jù)，即其他rank發(fā)送來的extInfo，然后保存其他rank的extHandleListen和extHandleListenRoot，這個(gè)時(shí)候rank0就獲取到其他所有rank的ip和port了。

獲取完所有rank的info之后開始建環(huán)，將節(jié)點(diǎn)(r+1) % nranks的extHandleListen發(fā)送給節(jié)點(diǎn)r，就是說將節(jié)點(diǎn)r的next節(jié)點(diǎn)的nethandle發(fā)送給節(jié)點(diǎn)r。這里可以看出，每個(gè)節(jié)點(diǎn)創(chuàng)建了兩個(gè)listen comm，其中rank0使用extHandleListenRoot進(jìn)行通信，其他節(jié)點(diǎn)之間通過extHandleListen進(jìn)行通信。

然后再回去接著看bootstrapInit

ncclResult_t bootstrapInit(ncclUniqueId * id, int rank, int nranks, void** commState) {
  // get info on my "next" rank in the bootstrap ring from root
  ncclNetHandle_t extHandleNext;
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetAccept(extBstrapListenCommRoot, &tmpRecvComm));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetRecv(tmpRecvComm, &extHandleNext, sizeof(extHandleNext)));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetCloseRecv(tmpRecvComm));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetCloseListen(extBstrapListenCommRoot));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetConnect(state->dev, &extHandleNext, &state->extBstrapRingSendComm));
  // Accept the connect request from the previous rank in the AllGather ring
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetAccept(state->extBstrapListenComm, &state->extBstrapRingRecvComm));
  // AllGather all listen handlers
  NCCLCHECK(ncclCalloc(&state->peerBstrapHandles, nranks));
  memcpy(state->peerBstrapHandles+rank, info.extHandleListen, sizeof(ncclNetHandle_t));
  NCCLCHECK(bootstrapAllGather(state, state->peerBstrapHandles, sizeof(ncclNetHandle_t)));
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "rank %d nranks %d - DONE", rank, nranks);
  return ncclSuccess;
}

接著所有rank都會(huì)在extHandleListenRoot上接收新連接創(chuàng)建tmpRecvComm，然后接收到當(dāng)前rank的next的ip，port；然后連接next創(chuàng)建bscomm到state->extBstrapRingSendComm，接收prev的連接創(chuàng)建bscomm到state->extBstrapRingRecvComm，到現(xiàn)在bootstrap網(wǎng)絡(luò)連接就完全建立起來了，如下圖：

最后gather所有rank的ip port

首先將自己的nethandle放到peerBstrapHandles的對應(yīng)位置，如下所示。

然后執(zhí)行bootstrapAllGather：

ncclResult_t bootstrapAllGather(void* commState, void* allData, int size) {
  struct extState* state = (struct extState*)commState;
  char* data = (char*)allData;
  int rank = state->rank;
  int nranks = state->nranks;
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "rank %d nranks %d size %d", rank, nranks, size);
  /* Simple ring based AllGather
   * At each step i receive data from (rank-i-1) from left
   * and send previous step's data from (rank-i) to right
   */
  for (int i=0; i<nranks-1; i++) {
    size_t rslice = (rank - i - 1 + nranks) % nranks;
    size_t sslice = (rank - i + nranks) % nranks;
    // Send slice to the right
    NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetSend(state->extBstrapRingSendComm, data+sslice*size, size));
    // Recv slice from the left
    NCCLCHECK(bootstrapNetRecv(state->extBstrapRingRecvComm, data+rslice*size, size));
  }
  TRACE(NCCL_INIT, "rank %d nranks %d size %d - DONE", rank, nranks, size);
  return ncclSuccess;
}

每一次將自己的data發(fā)送給對應(yīng)的rank，然后接收其他rank發(fā)送過來的data，如下圖。

第一步：
