I ran slow tests for the affected models, and verified that they all pass except XLMRobertaXLModelTest::test_eager_matches_sdpa_generate(). I suspect it's just some numerical computation error, but I'll take a quick look to see if I can find anything.

I'll also try to run some the perf benchmarks on RoBERTa over the weekend to see how they behave.

It seems like XLMRobertaXLModelTest::test_eager_matches_sdpa_generate() doesn't always fail, but it's flaky and depends on the random number generator. I think it is due to computation/numerical stability, which can result in slightly different results.

EDIT: I added a set_seed(0) to XLMRobertaXLModelTest::test_eager_matches_sdpa_generate(), and the flake seems to have gone away.

hackyon · 2024-04-29T17:50:18Z

@fxmarty @ArthurZucker @amyeroberts

This is ready for review! With the exception of the changes to the test and check_support_list.py, all the changes are coming from "Copied From". Please let me know if you have any questions!

michaelshekasta · 2024-05-08T21:15:13Z

@hackyon, I'm curious about whether implementing flash_atten is essential when writing an SDPA. I came across claims that flash_atten can offer up to a x4 efficiency boost (roughly) compared to native PyTorch. However, your remarks in #30510 suggest that the actual improvement is less than 50%. Could you help shed some light on this apparent difference?

hackyon · 2024-05-19T12:14:26Z

@michaelshekasta I believe the 4x improvement only applies to certain models, usually larger models with more computationally expensive attention computations.

ArthurZucker · 2024-05-23T13:42:42Z

@fxmarty can you have a look and ping me for the final review? 🤗

nbroad1881 · 2024-06-18T01:20:19Z

@fxmarty , gentle bump

fxmarty

LGTM, just a fix that I think needs to be made for cross attention for the is_causal param

The test here https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/30138/files#diff-681c988a50a31869d1756f2db71904939c639617569a5168d7b3167fe8da0b48 could also be extended for extra safety, but up to you.

@fxmarty You may want to resolve conflicts.

ArthurZucker · 2024-07-26T10:25:30Z

Sorry did not have time before, will try to do today or next week. It's a big PR with lots of changes, need to be extra careful!

kiszk · 2024-08-13T02:41:07Z

@ArthurZucker would you have a time for this review?

hotchpotch · 2024-08-15T19:36:18Z

I've also experienced approximately 20% faster training with XLMRoberta using this PR on an RTX4090. I've been testing it for over a week now, and it's been working without any issues. I sincerely hope this can be merged.

kiszk · 2024-08-27T15:43:33Z

@ArthurZucker Can we help with anything reviewing this PR?

ArthurZucker

I kept pushing this back, it's on me! I'll solve whatever comes up with this merge.
Thanks @hackyon for your hard work LGTM!

michaelshekasta · 2024-08-28T09:13:18Z

@ArthurZucker when do you think that this change will appear in transformers package? next version?

P.S. You are so amazing guys!

ArthurZucker · 2024-08-28T09:24:27Z

It should be there in at most 2 weeks! 🤗
