"The connection to the C10d store has failed" on distributed evaluation #84

Open chawins opened 2 years ago

chawins commented 2 years ago

I have been trying to get AutoAttack works reliably in distributed mode (DistributedDataParallel) in pytorch. Often, the program crashes after AutoAttack ran for several batches with the stack trace below. It happened more often when AutoAttack ran for longer, i.e., high robust accuracy and lots of samples got through to Square attack.

I realize that this might be a system-specific and more pytorch-related issue, but I am curious if anyone else here has gotten a similar error and perhaps has a fix. My current fix is just to keep repeating the evaluation until it gets lucky and runs successfully. Obviously, this is not ideal and wastes a lot of time and resources as some need 5-10 repeats to succeed.

Another fix is to just run the evaluation on a non-distributed mode. This error never happens outside of the distributed mode and might be specific to c10d backend.

Some system info:

...
initial accuracy: 75.00%
apgd-ce - 1/1 - 6 out of 48 successfully perturbed
robust accuracy after APGD-CE: 65.62% (total time 26.3 s)
apgd-t - 1/1 - 1 out of 42 successfully perturbed
robust accuracy after APGD-T: 64.06% (total time 95.2 s)

Hi,

I've never tried to use AA in distributed mode so far. Anyway, thanks for letting me know, I'll get back to you in case I face the same issue or find a fix.
