Description

We have a fairly complicated support matrix for context parallelism (CP) in TE (both PyTorch and Jax sides). It'd be nice to add more documentation regarding the features we support and how we support them, potentially in a page under "Advanced" in https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/transformer-engine/user-guide/index.html.
