## Running TGI on Gaudi

To use [🤗 text-generation-inference](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference) on Habana Gaudi/Gaudi2/Gaudi3, follow these steps:

1. Pull the official Docker image with:
   ```bash
   docker pull ghcr.io/huggingface/tgi-gaudi:2.0.5
   ```
> [!NOTE]
> Alternatively, you can build the Docker image using the `Dockerfile` located in this folder with:
> ```bash
> docker build -t tgi_gaudi .
> ```
2. Launch a local server instance:

    i. On 1 Gaudi card
   ```bash
   model=meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf
   hf_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
   volume=$PWD/data # share a volume with the Docker container to avoid downloading weights every run

   docker run -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data --runtime=habana -e HABANA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all -e OMPI_MCA_btl_vader_single_copy_mechanism=none -e HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN=$hf_token -e ENABLE_HPU_GRAPH=true -e LIMIT_HPU_GRAPH=true -e USE_FLASH_ATTENTION=true -e FLASH_ATTENTION_RECOMPUTE=true --cap-add=sys_nice --ipc=host ghcr.io/huggingface/tgi-gaudi:2.0.5 --model-id $model --max-input-tokens 1024 --max-total-tokens 2048
   ```
   > For gated models such as [StarCoder](https://huggingface.co/bigcode/starcoder), you will have to pass `-e HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN=<token>` to the `docker run` command above with a valid Hugging Face Hub read token.

    ii. On 1 Gaudi card using PyTorch eager mode with torch compile:
   ```bash
   model=meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf
   hf_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
   volume=$PWD/data # share a volume with the Docker container to avoid downloading weights every run

   docker run -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data --runtime=habana -e HABANA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all -e PT_HPU_LAZY_MODE=0 -e OMPI_MCA_btl_vader_single_copy_mechanism=none -e HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN=$hf_token --cap-add=sys_nice --ipc=host ghcr.io/huggingface/tgi-gaudi:2.0.5 --model-id $model --max-input-tokens 1024 --max-total-tokens 2048
   ```

    iii. On 8 Gaudi cards:
   ```bash
   model=meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-hf
   hf_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
   volume=$PWD/data # share a volume with the Docker container to avoid downloading weights every run

   docker run -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data --runtime=habana -e PT_HPU_ENABLE_LAZY_COLLECTIVES=true -e HABANA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all -e OMPI_MCA_btl_vader_single_copy_mechanism=none -e HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN=$hf_token -e ENABLE_HPU_GRAPH=true -e LIMIT_HPU_GRAPH=true -e USE_FLASH_ATTENTION=true -e FLASH_ATTENTION_RECOMPUTE=true --cap-add=sys_nice --ipc=host ghcr.io/huggingface/tgi-gaudi:2.0.5 --model-id $model --sharded true --num-shard 8 --max-input-tokens 1024 --max-total-tokens 2048
   ```
3. You can then send a simple request:
   ```bash
   curl 127.0.0.1:8080/generate \
     -X POST \
     -d '{"inputs":"What is Deep Learning?","parameters":{"max_new_tokens":32}}' \
     -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
   ```
4. Please note that the model warmup can take several minutes, especially for FP8 inference. To minimize this time in consecutive runs, please refer to [Disk Caching Eviction Policy](https://docs.habana.ai/en/latest/PyTorch/Model_Optimization_PyTorch/Optimization_in_PyTorch_Models.html#disk-caching-eviction-policy).

### TGI-Gaudi Benchmark

#### Static Batching Benchmark
 To run static batching benchmark, please refer to [TGI's benchmark tool](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference/tree/main/benchmark).

   To run it on the same machine, you can do the following:
   * `docker exec -it <docker name> bash` , pick the docker started from step 2 using docker ps
   * `text-generation-benchmark -t <model-id>` , pass the model-id from docker run command
   * after the completion of tests, hit ctrl+c to see the performance data summary.

#### Continuous Batching Benchmark
 To run continuous batching benchmark, please refer to [README in examples folder](https://github.com/huggingface/tgi-gaudi/blob/habana-main/examples/README.md).

### Llava-v1.6-Mistral-7B on 1 card

In Llava-v1.6-Mistral-7B, an image usually accounts for 2000 input tokens. For example, an image of size 512x512 is represented by 2800 tokens. Thus, `max-input-tokens` must be larger than the number of tokens associated with the image. Otherwise the image may be truncated. We set `BASE_IMAGE_TOKENS=2048` as the default image token value. This is the minimum value of `max-input-tokens`. You can override the environment variable `BASE_IMAGE_TOKENS` to change this value. The warmup will generate graphs with input length from `BASE_IMAGE_TOKENS` to `max-input-tokens`. For Llava-v1.6-Mistral-7B, the value of `max-batch-prefill-tokens` is 16384, which is calcualted as follows: `prefill_batch_size` = `max-batch-prefill-tokens` / `max-input-tokens`.

```bash
model=llava-hf/llava-v1.6-mistral-7b-hf
volume=$PWD/data   # share a volume with the Docker container to avoid downloading weights every run

docker run -p 8080:80 \
   --runtime=habana \

   --max-input-tokens 4096 --max-batch-prefill-tokens 16384 \
   --max-total-tokens 8192 --max-batch-total-tokens 32768
```

Send the simple request.
```bash

    -X POST \
    -d '{"inputs":"![](https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/transformers/rabbit.png)What is this a picture of?\n\n","parameters":{"max_new_tokens":16, "seed": 42}}' \

## Running TGI with FP8 Precision

TGI-Gaudi supports FP8 precision inference with INC (Intel Neural Compressor) and HQT (Habana Quantization Toolkit). FP8 inference can be run by setting QUANT_CONFIG environment variable in the docker command. From TGI-Gaudi 2.0.4 release, INC is used by default for quantization. HQT will be removed in future releases. To use HQT, disable INC by setting `-e USE_INC=0` in docker command.

To run FP8 Inference:

1. Measure statistics by using [Optimum Habana measurement script](https://github.com/huggingface/optimum-habana/tree/main/examples/text-generation#running-with-fp8:~:text=use_deepspeed%20%2D%2Dworld_size%208-,run_lm_eval.py,-%5C%0A%2Do%20acc_70b_bs1_measure.txt)
2. Run the model in TGI with QUANT_CONFIG setting - e.g. `-e QUANT_CONFIG=./quantization_config/maxabs_quant.json`.

The following are the commmand examples for FP8 inference based on the assumption that measurement is done in the first step above.

## Adjusting TGI Parameters

Maximum sequence length is controlled by two arguments:
- `--max-input-tokens` is the maximum possible input prompt length. Default value is `4095`.
- `--max-total-tokens` is the maximum possible total length of the sequence (input and output). Default value is `4096`.

Maximum batch size is controlled by two arguments:
- For prefill operation, please set `--max-batch-prefill-tokens` as `bs * max-input-tokens`, where `bs` is your expected maximum prefill batch size.
- For decode operation, please set `--max-batch-total-tokens` as `bs * max-total-tokens`, where `bs` is your expected maximum decode batch size.
- Please note that batch size will be always padded to the nearest multiplication of `BATCH_BUCKET_SIZE` and `PREFILL_BATCH_BUCKET_SIZE`.

To ensure greatest performance results, at the beginning of each server run, warmup is performed. It's designed to cover major recompilations while using HPU Graphs. It creates queries with all possible input shapes, based on provided parameters (described in this section) and runs basic TGI operations on them (prefill, decode, concatenate).

Except those already mentioned, there are other parameters that need to be properly adjusted to improve performance or memory usage:

- `PAD_SEQUENCE_TO_MULTIPLE_OF` determines sizes of input length buckets. Since warmup creates several graphs for each bucket, it's important to adjust that value proportionally to input sequence length. Otherwise, some out of memory issues can be observed.
- `ENABLE_HPU_GRAPH` enables HPU graphs usage, which is crucial for performance results. Recommended value to keep is `true` .
