module to freeze/unfreeze parameters by name

Represents a regex pattern for layer names, potentially including a parameter index range.

Checks if the given layer name matches the regex pattern.

Parameters: - name (str): The layer name to check.

Returns: - bool: True if the layer name matches the pattern, False otherwise.

Freezes all layers of the given model except for the layers that match given regex patterns. Periods in the patterns are treated as literal periods, not as wildcard characters.

Parameters: - model (nn.Module): The PyTorch model to be modified. - regex_patterns (list of str): List of regex patterns to match layer names to keep unfrozen. Note that you cannot use a dot as a wildcard character in the patterns since it is reserved for separating layer names. Also, to match the entire layer name, the pattern should start with “^” and end with “(", otherwise it will match any part of the layer name. The range pattern part is optional and it is not compiled as a regex pattern which means you must put ")” before the range pattern if you want to match the entire layer name. E.g., [“^model.embed_tokens.weight([:32000]", "layers.2[0-9]+.block_sparse_moe.gate.[a-z]+)”]

Returns: None; the model is modified in place.

Examples:

Example 1 (python):

utils.freeze.LayerNamePattern(pattern)

Example 2 (python):

utils.freeze.LayerNamePattern.match(name)

Example 3 (python):

core.trainers.grpo.sampler

Repeat random sampler (similar to the one implemented in https://github.com/huggingface/trl/blob/main/trl/trainer/grpo_trainer.py) that adds sequence parallelism functionality; i.e., duplicating data across ranks in the same sequence parallel group.

Sampler for GRPO training with sequence parallelism.

This sampler ensures: - Ranks in the same sequence parallel (SP) group receive identical data. - Each index is repeated multiple times for sampling different completions. - Entire batches are repeated for reuse in multiple updates. - Data is properly distributed across SP groups.

In the table below, the values represent dataset indices. Each SP group has context_parallel_size = 2 GPUs working together on the same data. There are 2 SP groups (SP0 and SP1), with world_size = 4 total GPUs.

grad_accum=2 ▲ ▲ 0 0 [0 0 0 1 1 1] [2 2 2 3 3 3] <- SP groups get different data ▼ | 0 1 [0 0 0 1 1 1] [2 2 2 3 3 3] <- Same data for each SP group GPU | | 1 2 [0 0 0 1 1 1] [2 2 2 3 3 3] <- Repeat same indices for iterations num_iterations=2 ▼ 1 3 [0 0 0 1 1 1] [2 2 2 3 3 3] <- When using gradient accumulation

Sets the epoch for this sampler.

Examples:

Example 1 (python):

core.trainers.grpo.sampler.SequenceParallelRepeatRandomSampler(
    dataset,
    mini_repeat_count,
    world_size,
    rank,

monkeypatch.lora_kernels

Module for patching custom LoRA Triton kernels and torch.autograd functions.

placeholder MLP for triton patching

Applies optimized Triton kernel patches to a PEFT model.

Patches a PEFT model with optimized implementations for MLP and attention computations. The optimizations include custom Triton kernels for activation functions and specialized autograd functions for LoRA computations.

The optimizations require LoRA adapters with no dropout and no bias terms. The function will skip patching if these conditions aren’t met.

Get the appropriate attention class by inspecting the model config. Uses dynamic import to support any model architecture that follows the standard transformers naming convention.

Get the layers of the model. Handles text-only and multimodal models.

Original implementation of output projection without optimizations.

Original implementation of QKV projection without optimizations.

Given an axolotl config, this method patches the inferred attention class forward pass with optimized LoRA implementations.

It modifies the attention class to use optimized QKV and output projections. The original implementation is preserved and can be restored if needed.

Examples:

Example 1 (python):

monkeypatch.lora_kernels.FakeMLP(gate_proj, up_proj, down_proj)
