Enabling OFI/verbs/dmabuf Support
oneCCL provides experimental support for data transfers between Intel GPU memory and NIC using Linux dmabuf, which is exposed through OFI API for verbs provider.
Requirements
Linux kernel version >= 5.12
RDMA core version >= 34.0
level-zero-devel package
Usage
oneCCL, OFI and OFI/verbs from Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit support device memory transfers. Refer to Run instructions for usage.
If you want to build software components from sources, refer to Build instructions.
Build instructions
OFI
git clone --single-branch --branch v1.13.2 https://github.com/ofiwg/libfabric.git cd libfabric ./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=<ofi_install_dir> --enable-verbs=<rdma_core_install_dir> --with-ze=<level_zero_install_dir> --enable-ze-dlopen=yes make -j install
NOTE:
You may also get OFI release package directly from here. No need to run autogen.sh if using the release package.
oneCCL
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<ccl_install_dir> -DLIBFABRIC_DIR=<ofi_install_dir> -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icx -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx -DCOMPUTE_BACKEND=dpcpp -DENABLE_OFI_HMEM=1 .. make -j install
Run instructions
Set the environment.
If Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit is used:
source <toolkit_install_dir>/setvars.sh
If software components are built from sources:
source <ccl_install_dir>/env/setvars.sh export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<ofi_install_path>/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}Run allreduce test with ring algorithm and SYCL USM device buffers:
