<p>Pipeline parallelism was original introduced in the
<a class="reference external" href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1811.06965">Gpipe</a> paper and is an efficient
technique to train large models on multiple GPUs.</p>
<div class="admonition warning">
<p class="admonition-title">Warning</p>
<p>torch.distributed.pipeline is deprecated, so is this document. For
up-to-date pipeline parallel implementation, please refer to the
<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/pytorch/PiPPy">PiPPy</a> library under the PyTorch
organization (Pipeline Parallelism for PyTorch).</p>

<h2>Model Parallelism using multiple GPUs<a class="headerlink" href="#model-parallelism-using-multiple-gpus" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<p>Typically for large models which don’t fit on a single GPU, model parallelism
is employed where certain parts of the model are placed on different GPUs.
Although, if this is done naively for sequential models, the training process
suffers from GPU under utilization since only one GPU is active at one time as
shown in the figure below:</p>
<div class="figure align-default" id="id2">
<img alt="_images/no_pipe.png" src="_images/no_pipe.png" />
<p class="caption"><span class="caption-text">The figure represents a model with 4 layers placed on 4 different GPUs
(vertical axis). The horizontal axis represents training this model through
time demonstrating that only 1 GPU is utilized at a time
(<a class="reference external" href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1811.06965">image source</a>).</span><a class="headerlink" href="#id2" title="Permalink to this image">¶</a></p>

<div class="section" id="pipelined-execution">
<h2>Pipelined Execution<a class="headerlink" href="#pipelined-execution" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<p>To alleviate this problem, pipeline parallelism splits the input minibatch into
multiple microbatches and pipelines the execution of these microbatches across
multiple GPUs. This is outlined in the figure below:</p>
<div class="figure align-default" id="id3">
<img alt="_images/pipe.png" src="_images/pipe.png" />
<p class="caption"><span class="caption-text">The figure represents a model with 4 layers placed on 4 different GPUs
(vertical axis). The horizontal axis represents training this model through
time demonstrating that the GPUs are utilized much more efficiently.
However, there still exists a bubble (as demonstrated in the figure) where
certain GPUs are not utilized.

modify the input and output signature of the underlying module. But
there’s type restriction. Input and output have to contain at least one
tensor. This restriction is applied at partition boundaries too.</p>
<p>The sequence of inputs are fed into the first stage of the pipeline as
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">*inputs</span></code>. As a result the positional args for this function should
match the positional args for the first stage of the pipeline. The same
condition applies for output of one stage of the pipeline which is the
input for the next stage.</p>
<p>The input tensor is split into multiple micro-batches based on the

<p>If a tensor is wrapped with the <code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">NoChunk</span></code> wrapper, the tensor

<h3>Skip connections<a class="headerlink" href="#skip-connections" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h3>
<p>Certain models like <a class="reference external" href="https://pytorch.org/hub/pytorch_vision_resnext/">ResNeXt</a>
are not completely sequential and have skip connections between layers.
Naively implementing as part of pipeline parallelism would imply that
we need to copy outputs for certain layers through multiple GPUs till
we eventually reach the GPU where the layer for the skip connection resides.
To avoid this copy overhead, we provide APIs below to stash and pop Tensors
in different layers of the model.</p>

<p>These decorated modules are called “skippable”. This functionality works perfectly

<p>Each skip tensor is managed by its name. Before manipulating skip tensors,
a skippable module must statically declare the names for skip tensors by
<cite>stash</cite> and/or <cite>pop</cite> parameters. Skip tensors with pre-declared name can be
