Describe

In the new communication library, we designed ProcessGroup to manage different communication group. Inside each process_group has its own stream which all communications in this group will be done on this stream. For high level API, like distributed.all_reduce, we use use_calc_stream to indicate whether this operation is sync or not. Notice that frequently add unnecessary cuda events may lead to low performance on some model. In order to achieve high performance, this pr add a new API name distributed.stream.all_reduce. This new API provided use_calc_stream and sync_op both.

  • sync_op, indicate whether communication is sync or not.
  • use_calc_stream, do communicate on calc stream, save the time of switching stream. Only work when sync_op is true.
