Description

Required prerequisites
What version (or hash if on master) of pybind11 are you using?

2.10.1

Problem description
/usr/bin/ld: build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.10/csrc/transformer/ds_transformer_cuda.o: relocation R_X86_64_TPOFF32 against hidden symbol `_ZZN8pybind116handle15inc_ref_counterEmE7counter' can not be used when making a shared object
Reproducible example code
I was following https://www.deepspeed.ai/tutorials/advanced-install/.

Specifically, it can be reproduced with

`DS_BUILD_TRANSFORMER_INFERENCE=1 pip install .`

The command that failed is

Research direction

Start with the reported DS_BUILD_TRANSFORMER_INFERENCE=1 pip install . reproduction and inspect ds_transformer_cuda.o together with the shown shared-object link command. Trace the _ZZN8pybind116handle15inc_ref_counterEmE7counter relocation and compare the build behavior across relevant configurations; done means the shared object links without the reported error.
