Rework core for NVIDIA Trusted Computing * Compress work structs so that they are shared between channels * Utilize the full amount of kernel argument space permitted (4k) before resorting to work fifo. * Rework the task preprocessing phase. * Use a separate abortDevFlag which is kept in sync with abortFlag using cudaMemcpy operations. * Rename src/include/align.h to src/include/bitops.h Add lazy connection establishment for collective operations * Move buffer allocation and connection establishment to the first collective operation using that algorithm. * Accelerate init time and reduce memory usage. * Avoid allocating NVLS buffers if all calls are registered. * Compute algo/proto in ncclLaunchCollTasksInfo early on. * Connect peers in ncclCollPreconnectFunc if not connected already. * Also move shared buffer creation to the first send/recv call. Accelerate intra-node NVLink detection * Make each rank only detect NVLinks attached to its GPU. * Fuse XMLs to reconstruct the full NVLink topology Add init profiling to report time spend in different init phases. * Report timings of bootstrap, allgather, search, connect, etc. * Add new "PROFILE" category for NCCL_DEBUG_SUBSYS. Add support for PCI p2p on split PCI switches * Detect split PCI switches through a kernel module exposing switch information. * Update the topology XML and graph to add those inter-switch connections. Add cost estimation API * Add a new ncclGroupEndSimulate primitive to return the estimated time a group would take. Net/IB: Add separate traffic class for fifo messages * Add NCCL_IB_FIFO_TC to control the traffic class of fifo messages independently from NCCL_IB_TC. Merges PR #1194 Net/IB: Add support for IB router * Use flid instead of lid if subnets do not match * Warn if flid is 0 Optimizations and fixes for device network offload (unpack) * Double the default number of channels * Cache netDeviceType * Fix save/increment head logic to enable Tree support. Support ncclGroupStart/End for ncclCommAbort/Destroy * Allow Abort/Destroy to be called within a group when managing multiple GPUs with a single process. Improve Tuner API * Provide to the plugin the original cost table so that the plugin can leave unknown or disabled algo/proto combinations untouched. * Remove nvlsSupport and collnetSupport. Do not print version to stdout when using a debug file * Also print version from all processes with INFO debug level. Fixes issue #1271 Fix clang warnings in NVTX headers * Update NVTX headers to the latest version Fixes issue #1270 Disable port fusion in heterogeneous systems * Do not fuse ports if a mix of multi-port and single port are detected. Fix NVLS graphs search for dual NICs. * Fix NVLS graph search when we have more than one NIC per GPU. Fix crash with collnetDirect * Add separate graph search for collnetDirect, testing alltoall paths and working similarly to the NVLS search. Fix hang when nodes have different CPU types * Add the CPU type to the rank peer info. * Align all ranks on the CPU type after the first allgather. * Only use the aligned CPU type for all tuning operations. Fixes issue #1136 Fixes issue #1184 Fix performance of registered send/recv operations * Allow for single full size operations * Add INFO to confirm the registration of send/recv buffers. Move all sync ops to finalize stage * Ensure ncclCommDestroy is non-blocking if ncclCommFinalize has been called. Improve error reporting during SHM segment creation Improve support of various compilers Merges PR #1177 Merges PR #1228 Allow net and tuner plugins to be statically linked * Search for ncclNet or ncclTuner symbols in the main binary. Merges PR #979 Plugin examples includes cleanup * Harmonize err.h and common.h usage. * Add mixed plugin with both net and tuner.

Tweaking how channels for MI300X multinode are ordered
Work item: "Internal", or link to GitHub issue (if applicable).
What were the changes?
Introducing a "channel width" to the model detection structure, which indicates how many copies of a channel should be added.
Why were the changes made?
This should improve MI300X performance by spreading out traffic more evenly across the 8 XCDs of a MI300X, and cut down on per-iteration performance variance.
How was the outcome achieved?
Modified the parsing code to repeat based on the new channelWidth field, modified MI300X multi-node model channelWidth to 8, and maintained current functionality for all the other models by setting channelWidth to 1.
