Description
Describe the bug
It looks like DeepCompile might have some compatibility issues with flash attention, when doing the forward pass.
Error logs:
MemoryProfiling error /pytorch/build/aten/src/ATen/RegisterCUDA.cpp:18503: SymIntArrayRef expected to contain only concrete integers
While executing %view : [num_users=2] = call_function[target=torch.ops.aten.view.default](args = (%arg1_1, [%arg0_1]), kwargs = {})
Original traceback:
File "flash_attn/bert_padding.py", line 114, in torch_dynamo_resume_in_unpad_input_at_114
indices = torch.nonzero(all_masks.flatten(), as_tuple=False).flatten()
To Reproduce
I'm using OpenRLHF with DeepCompile, but I think this should not be directly related to code in OpenRLHF and should be general enough to reproduce.
Basically, you may be able to reconstruct a reproduction script that, during training, run a forward pass when doing .eval() in ZeRO-1 with DeepCompile, for a huggingface model (meta-llama/Llama-3.2-1B-Instruct) with flash attention enabled (transformers==4.51.1, flash_attn==2.7.4.post1).
Expected behavior
No error thrown
