Memory should be completely released after an OOM happens #17126

Open lorenzob opened 4 years ago

lorenzob commented 4 years ago

Description

After a cudaMalloc failed: out of memory error is raised everything becomes unusable with more out of memory errors (even if a smaller batch is provided).

If I load two models both become unusable after the OOM.

Error Message

To Reproduce

Invoke the model with a large enough batch to get an OOM. Now call it again with a small batch that would not throw as OOM if called on its own. This small batch throws an OOM too.

It looks like the memory from the previous call is not completely released.

What have you tried to solve it?

mxnet.context.current_context().empty_cache() mxnet.gpu(0).empty_cache()

Should have already been fixed in #16194. Could you try a nightly build to verify?

lorenzob commented 4 years ago

With the nightly first I got this error:

https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/16785

and I solved(?) it by setting MXNET_USE_FUSION=0.

After that, on the first call after the OOM I get (from another model, not the same that threw the OOM error):

szha commented 4 years ago

The problem here is that the call in mshadow isn't requesting memory from our memory pool. We are in the process of deprecating mshadow.

leezu commented 4 years ago

@lorenzob which date is your nightly build of? Could you build https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/17114 from source and check the issue still persists?

CC @ptrendx seems there may be another fusion issue here

lorenzob commented 4 years ago

@leezu I'm willing too but I'm stuck with the build on a gtest error and I cannot find any complete build guide covering all the requisites. Can you help me with this?

I have gtest in /usr/src/gtest and /usr/local/lib/gtest/

leezu commented 4 years ago

@lorenzob thank you. Actually there is the 3rdparty/googletest submodule included in MXNet. You need to run git submodule update --init --recursive or clone with git clone --recursive https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/ to make sure all submodules are initialized correctly.

A better error message should be provided indeed..

ptrendx commented 4 years ago

@lorenzob Can you provide some repro instructions for the error where you needed to disable fusion?

lorenzob commented 4 years ago

@leezu Thanks, I just did a straight checkout from github to get started and missed the recursive part from the docs.

I still need a little more help with the install:

I upgraded cmake to 3.14 (3.10.2 with cuda 10 does not work, see: https://root-forum.cern.ch/t/intallation-cuda-cublas-device-library-advanced-set-to-notfound/33206/9 )

I had to manually link liblapack.so too:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblapack.so.3 /usr/lib/liblapack.so

to fix /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -llapack from ninja (also had to install ninja).

I'm following this doc:

https://mxnet.apache.org/get_started/build_from_source

I've seen the ubuntu_core.sh and ubuntu_python.sh but I prefer to do it step by step and I'm also using mint 19.2.

Now to add the module to my conda env I did:

python python/setup.py install

This added an mxnet to the pip list but not an mxnet-cu100.

With only the mxnet module it does not work, if I ask for mxnet.version I get:

AttributeError: module 'mxnet' has no attribute 'version'

I manually added

mxnet-cu100 1.6.0b20191102

and it works (still with the broken OOM) but I think it is not the right thing to do.

What are final steps? Is there a doc I missed?

@ptrendx Clone this project:

https://github.com/deepinsight/insightface

Download and extract from here:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/tj96fsm6t6rq8ye/model-r100-arcface-ms1m-refine-v2.zip?dl=0

model-r100-ii into models keeping the subfolder.

Copy the attached test into deploy and run it from that folder.

test_error.py.txt

I've noticed that I get the error only if the batch size is greater than one.

leezu commented 4 years ago

@lorenzob you need to uninstall all mxnet packages first (ie uninstall mxnet-cu100), and then install the source compiled version. It is expected that only mxnet package (and no mxnet-cuX) package is installed afterwards.

The attribute error you experienced is due to having two versions installed (in my experience).

Sorry to hear you experienced issues with the cmake & cuda setup. The requirements on a recent CMake version will be properly declared once https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/17031 is reviewed and merged.

lorenzob commented 4 years ago

@leezu I added the mxnet-cuX after I saw this error:

AttributeError: module 'mxnet' has no attribute 'cpu'

Right after the build and install this is the situation:

Did the build complete correctly?

leezu commented 4 years ago

@lorenzob I think the problem is that you didn't uninstall all mxnet versions obtained via pip, before installing the self-compiled version.

Ie. first pip uninstall mxnet, pip uninstall mxnet-cuX, etc. Then cd ~/path/to/mxnet-incubator/python; pip install --user -e . to install the self-compiled version.

lorenzob commented 4 years ago

@leezu I did remove the all the mxnet packages and also created a new conda env to be sure.

But I used the "setup.py install" script to install the module rather than pip directly. Now it works, thanks, but the error is still there:

Thanks for confirming @lorenzob. So you confirmed the issue disappears when setting MXNET_USE_FUSION=0 with the code from #17114, correct?

How close to out of memory are you with MXNET_USE_FUSION=0? (ie. what's the memory usage)

@leezu @ptrendx I used commit d000c3 that I think includes #17114

I no longer get the "Operator is non-differentiable" error if I do not set the MXNET_USE_FUSION. Setting MXNET_USE_FUSION=0 never solved the OOM error.

I still get the OOM if I use more than 10 112x112 images in one batch (for inference). When I get the first OOM I'm actually filling all the available free memory (about 3GB) and memory usage remains at near 100% after the first OOM exception (I added a time.sleep and checked this with nvidia-smi).

The first OOM and the second one are different:

First:

  File "core/facerec.py", line 184, in compare
    embedding = model.model.get_outputs()[0].asnumpy()
  File "/home/trz/github/incubator-mxnet/python/mxnet/ndarray/ndarray.py", line 2552, in asnumpy
    ctypes.c_size_t(data.size)))
  File "/home/trz/github/incubator-mxnet/python/mxnet/base.py", line 278, in check_call
    raise MXNetError(py_str(_LIB.MXGetLastError()))
mxnet.base.MXNetError: [12:42:39] ../src/storage/./pooled_storage_manager.h:161: cudaMalloc retry failed: out of memory

Second:

  File "/home/trz/progetti/zzzz/git_repo/ai-face-matching/arcface/helper.py", line 156, in detect_first_stage
    output = net.predict(input_buf)
  File "/home/trz/github/incubator-mxnet/python/mxnet/model.py", line 750, in predict

    raise MXNetError(py_str(_LIB.MXGetLastError()))

I seem to be having the same problem.

@lorenzob were you able to solve the out of memory errors? @szha , if the problem is in the call to mshadow, is there a way of working around mshadow to avoid it? Thanks.

lorenzob commented 4 years ago

@ballcue No, but I did not do further tests with the latest versions since the last post. As an obvious workaround I reduced the batch size and, as my process is running under gunicorn, I kill the process in case of OOM so that a new one is respawned.

@lorenzob Got it, thank you.
