ChatQnA: accelerate also teirerank with Gaudi

[eero-t]

Description

Accelerate also teirerank with Gaudi, not just tei.

When reranking is used, it does not make sense (performance-wise) to accelerate just tei, as reranking is a larger bottleneck.

Issues

n/a.

Type of change

• Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)

Dependencies

n/a.

Tests

Manually checked the ChatQnA throughput.

[eero-t]

Marking as draft because I'm not sure in which other places this should be added.

(I can add common/teirerank/gaudi-values.yaml, but IMHO guardrails-gaudi-values.yaml files should be something added on top of gaudi-values.yaml, not independent.)

And because I'm not sure what the recent changes in there other GenAI repos imply on reranking use...

[eero-t]

Looking at the CI fails, CI seems to be currently in rather broken state:

• pre-commit.ci fails due to CI check for Python doc formatting not being configured properly
• Change to gaudi-values.yaml cannot be cause for the Xeon failures
• PR does not touch guardrail files yet either

[yongfengdu]

I've fixed the pre-commit failure.
Guardrail failure should be caused by other changes(Docker or Python), I'm debugging it but maybe we can disable it first to make the CI work.
Please hold a while until this one merged.#473
Besides the guardrail fail, there is another relative path check failed, I'm sure it's not due to the code itself, but https://github.com/yongfengdu/GenAIInfra/blob/ci-fix/.github/workflows/pr-path-detection.yml

[yongfengdu]

The Xeon failure is caused by opea-project/GenAIExamples#891, which removed the use of microservice layers for LLM and Embedding. #474 is the follow up change for helm-charts.

For the guardrails-gaudi-values.yaml, unfortunately there is no way to include gaudi-values.yaml in helm chart, so it's ok to do duplicate changes there, or just keep it as is(Guardrail case still use CPU for reranking).

You'll have to rebase with latest change to continue.

I added gaudi-values.yaml to common/teirerank/, but did not touch guardrails, as I haven't done any performance testing for it.

You'll have to rebase with latest change to continue.

Thanks, done!

I dropped the PR draft status, but I haven't tested this yet with the ChatQnA "nowrapper" changes that were merged after I filed this. I would expect rerank perf to be even more important after its wrapper service is not providing extra buffering / slowdown though...

[eero-t]

As Gaudi rerank worked fine for me, CI failure for it could be result of the later nowrapper changes:

2024-10-16T13:00:32.007226Z  INFO text_embeddings_backend_python::management: backends/python/src/management.rs:136: Python backend process terminated
Error: Error when doing warmup

Caused by:
    Could not start backend: max_warmup_length (1024) exceeds model's max_input_length (512), you can modify this value adding `-e MAX_WARMUP_SEQUENCE_LENGTH=<new_warmup_length>` to your Docker run command

I think it's another bug in CI though, of only specifying one of the 2 related TEI options.

This is not a bug in CI, but with git HEAD, max warmup (matching specified max input length) is given only for tei, not teirerank: #483

[eero-t]

Rebased teirerank config fix as first one, so that every commit works.

This PR does not change anything related to guardrails, but still that test fails, due to another CI bug:

#kubectl logs chatqna20241018105227-testpod -n chatqna-20241018105227
curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 500
Internal Server Errorcurl failed with code 22

Fail is due to ChatQnA timeouting on guardrails:

@lianhao Has this not been fixed in CI yet: #454 (comment) ?
