Beschreibung

When reading the accelerator-microbenchmarks code, I'm very confused about one part. Below is the benchmark test configuration for all_to_all communication:

all_to_all_3d:
- mesh_shape: "4x4x8"
sharding_strategy: "4x4x8"
op_dimension: 3

all_to_all_2d:
- mesh_shape: "4x32"
sharding_strategy: "1x32"
op_dimension: 2

all_to_all_1d:
mesh_shape: "4x4x8"
sharding_strategy: "1x1x4"
op_dimension: 1

I originally thought that "_xd" describes data communicating across x dimensions, but it seems that both 1d and 2d only need communication in one dimension? Is it determined by op_dimension for how many dimensions? The all_to_all_benchmark function in the code also doesn't seem to use the op_dimension parameter.
