# GPT-J This document explains how to build the [GPT-J](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6b) model using TensorRT-LLM and run on a single GPU. ## Overview The TensorRT-LLM GPT-J implementation can be found in [`tensorrt_llm/models/gptj/model.py`](../../tensorrt_llm/models/gptj/model.py). The TensorRT-LLM GPT-J example code is located in [`examples/gptj`](./). There is one main file: * [`convert_checkpoint.py`](./convert_checkpoint.py) to convert a checkpoint from the [HuggingFace (HF) Transformers](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers) format to the TensorRT-LLM format. In addition, there are two shared files in the parent folder [`examples`](../) for inference and evaluation: * [`../run.py`](../run.py) to run the inference on an input text; * [`../summarize.py`](../summarize.py) to summarize the articles in the [cnn_dailymail](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cnn_dailymail) dataset. ## Support Matrix * FP16 * INT8 & INT4 per-channel weight-only * FP8 (with FP8 kv cache) * Groupwise quantization (AWQ) * INT8 KV CACHE (+ AWQ/per-channel weight-only) ## Usage ### 1. Download weights from HuggingFace (HF) Transformers ```bash # 1. Weights & config git clone https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6b gptj_model pushd gptj_model && \ rm -f pytorch_model.bin && \ wget https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6b/resolve/main/pytorch_model.bin && \ popd # 2. Vocab and merge table wget https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6b/resolve/main/vocab.json wget https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6b/resolve/main/merges.txt ``` ### 2. Build TensorRT engine(s) TensorRT-LLM builds TensorRT engine(s) using a HF checkpoint. If no checkpoint directory is specified, TensorRT-LLM will build engine(s) using dummy weights. Examples of build invocations: ```bash # Build a float16 engine using HF weights. python convert_checkpoint.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_fp16_tp1/ ``` ***For all kinds of checkpoints, they share the same trtllm-build command like:*** ```bash # Enable several TensorRT-LLM plugins to increase runtime performance. It also helps with build time. trtllm-build --checkpoint_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_fp16_tp1/ \ --output_dir ./trt_engines/gptj_fp16_tp1/ \ --context_fmha enable \ --remove_input_padding enable \ --gemm_plugin float16 \ --gpt_attention_plugin float16 \ --max_batch_size=32 \ --max_input_len=1919 \ --max_output_len=128 ``` INT8 weight-only ```bash # Build an int8 weight-only engine using HF weights with TP=2 python convert_checkpoint.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --use_weight_only \ --weight_only_precision int8 \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_int8_tp2/ \ --tp_size 2 ``` Building command is identical to the common one above. INT4 weight-only ```bash # Build an int4 weight only quantization engine using int4 weight only quantized weights. python convert_checkpoint.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --use_weight_only \ --weight_only_precision int4 \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_int4wo_tp1/ ``` Building command is identical to the common one above. #### FP8 Post-Training Quantization The examples below uses the NVIDIA AMMO (AlgorithMic Model Optimization) toolkit for the model quantization process. First make sure AMMO toolkit is installed (see [examples/quantization/README.md](/examples/quantization/README.md#preparation)) One can quantize HF GPT-J weights in FP8 as follows. ```bash # Quantize HF GPT-J 6B checkpoint into FP8 format python ../quantization/quantize.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --qformat fp8 \ --kv_cache_dtype fp8 \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_fp8_tp1 \ --calib_size 512 ``` Building command is identical to the common one above. #### AWQ INT4 weight only quantization One can enable AWQ INT4 weight only quantization like the following command. ```bash # Enable AWQ int4 group-wise weight-only quantization. python ../quantization/quantize.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --qformat int4_awq \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_int4_awq_tp1 \ --calib_size 512 ``` ```bash # Enable AWQ int4 group-wise weight-only quantization with tp2. python ../quantization/quantize.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --qformat int4_awq \ --tp_size 2 \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_int4_awq_tp2 \ --calib_size 512 ``` And build command is identical to the common one above. #### SmoothQuant (W8A8) quantization One can enable smoothquant W8A8 (weight per-channel, activation per-tensor) quantization like the following command. ```bash # Enable smoothquant (W8A8 kernel). python ../quantization/quantize.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --qformat int8_sq \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_sq_tp1 \ --calib_size 512 ``` Building command is identical to the common one above. #### Fused MultiHead Attention (FMHA) You can enable the FMHA kernels for GPT by adding `--enable_context_fmha` to the invocation of `build.py`. Note that it is disabled by default because of possible accuracy issues due to the use of Flash Attention. If you find that the default fp16 accumulation (`--enable_context_fmha`) cannot meet the requirement, you can try to enable fp32 accumulation by adding `--enable_context_fmha_fp32_acc`. However, it is expected to see performance drop. Note `--enable_context_fmha` / `--enable_context_fmha_fp32_acc` has to be used together with `--use_gpt_attention_plugin float16`. #### INT8 KV cache INT8 KV cache could be enabled to reduce memory footprint. It will bring more performance gains when batch size gets larger. You can get the INT8 scale of KV cache through AMMO: ```bash # INT8 calibration python ../quantization/quantize.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --kv_cache_dtype int8 \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_fp16_int8kv_tp1 \ --calib_size 512 ``` And build command is identical to the common one above. **INT8 KV cache + per-channel weight-only quantization** For example, you can enable INT8 KV cache together with per-channel INT8/INT4 weight-only quantization like the following command. ```bash # Enable INT8 KV cache together with per-channel INT8 weight-only quantization python ../quantization/quantize.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --qformat int4_wo \ --kv_cache_dtype int8 \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_int4wo_int8kv_tp1 \ --calib_size 512 ``` Building command is identical to the common one above. **INT8 KV cache + AWQ** In addition, you can enable INT8 KV cache together with AWQ (per-group INT4 weight-only quantization)like the following command. ```bash # Enable INT8 KV cache together with group-wise 4bit AWQ quantization python ../quantization/quantize.py --model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --dtype float16 \ --qformat int4_awq \ --kv_cache_dtype int8 \ --output_dir ./trt_ckpt/gptj_int4awq_int8kv_tp1 \ --calib_size 512 ``` Building command is identical to the common one above. ### 3. Run To run a TensorRT-LLM GPT-J model: ```bash python3 ../run.py --max_output_len=50 --engine_dir=gptj_engine --tokenizer_dir=gptj_model ``` ## Summarization using the GPT-J model The following section describes how to run a TensorRT-LLM GPT-J model to summarize the articles from the [cnn_dailymail](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cnn_dailymail) dataset. For each summary, the script can compute the [ROUGE](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROUGE_(metric)) scores and use the `ROUGE-1` score to validate the implementation. The script can also perform the same summarization using the HF GPT-J model. As previously explained, the first step is to build the TensorRT engine as described above using HF weights. You also have to install the requirements: ```bash pip install -r requirements.txt ``` The summarization can be done using the [`../summarize.py`](../summarize.py) script as follows: ```bash # Run the summarization task. python3 ../summarize.py --engine_dir ./trt_engines/gptj_fp16_tp1 \ --hf_model_dir ./gpt-j-6b \ --test_hf \ --batch_size 1 \ --test_trt_llm \ --tensorrt_llm_rouge1_threshold 14 \ --data_type fp16 \ --check_accuracy ```
