Initializes the default distributed process group, and this will also
initialize the distributed package.
There are 2 main ways to initialize a process group:
1. Specify ``store``, ``rank``, and ``world_size`` explicitly.
2. Specify ``init_method`` (a URL string) which indicates where/how
to discover peers. Optionally specify ``rank`` and ``world_size``,
or encode all required parameters in the URL and omit them.
If neither is specified, ``init_method`` is assumed to be "env://".
Args:
backend (str or Backend, optional): The backend to use. Depending on
build-time configurations, valid values include ``mpi``, ``gloo``,
``nccl``, and ``ucc``. If the backend is not provied, then both a ``gloo``
and ``nccl`` backend will be created, see notes below for how multiple
backends are managed. This field can be given as a lowercase string
(e.g., ``"gloo"``), which can also be accessed via
:class:`Backend` attributes (e.g., ``Backend.GLOO``). If using
multiple processes per machine with ``nccl`` backend, each process
must have exclusive access to every GPU it uses, as sharing GPUs
between processes can result in deadlocks. ``ucc`` backend is
experimental.
init_method (str, optional): URL specifying how to initialize the
process group. Default is "env://" if no
``init_method`` or ``store`` is specified.
Mutually exclusive with ``store``.
world_size (int, optional): Number of processes participating in
the job. Required if ``store`` is specified.
rank (int, optional): Rank of the current process (it should be a
number between 0 and ``world_size``-1).
Required if ``store`` is specified.
store(Store, optional): Key/value store accessible to all workers, used
to exchange connection/address information.
Mutually exclusive with ``init_method``.
timeout (timedelta, optional): Timeout for operations executed against
the process group. Default value equals 30 minutes.
This is applicable for the ``gloo`` backend. For ``nccl``, this is
applicable only if the environment variable ``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT``
or ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` is set to 1. When
``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT`` is set, this is the duration for which the
process will block and wait for collectives to complete before
throwing an exception. When ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` is set,
this is the duration after which collectives will be aborted
asynchronously and the process will crash. ``NCCL_BLOCKING_WAIT``
will provide errors to the user which can be caught and handled,
but due to its blocking nature, it has a performance overhead. On
the other hand, ``NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING`` has very little
performance overhead, but crashes the process on errors. This is
done since CUDA execution is async and it is no longer safe to
continue executing user code since failed async NCCL operations
might result in subsequent CUDA operations running on corrupted
data. Only one of these two environment variables should be set.
For ``ucc``, blocking wait is supported similar to NCCL. However,
async error handling is done differently since with UCC we have
progress thread and not watch-dog thread.
group_name (str, optional, deprecated): Group name.
pg_options (ProcessGroupOptions, optional): process group options
specifying what additional options need to be passed in during
the construction of specific process groups. As of now, the only
options we support is ``ProcessGroupNCCL.Options`` for the ``nccl``
backend, ``is_high_priority_stream`` can be specified so that
the nccl backend can pick up high priority cuda streams when
there're compute kernels waiting.
.. note:: To enable ``backend == Backend.MPI``, PyTorch needs to be built from source
on a system that supports MPI.
.. note:: Support for multiple backends is experimental. Currently when no backend is
specified, both ``gloo`` and ``nccl`` backends will be created. The ``gloo`` backend
will be used for collectives with CPU tensors and the ``nccl`` backend will be used
for collectives with CUDA tensors. A custom backend can be specified by passing in
a string with format "<device_type>:<backend_name>,<device_type>:<backend_name>", e.g.
"cpu:gloo,cuda:custom_backend".

Synchronizes all processes similar to ``torch.distributed.barrier``, but takes

/recv from other ranks are processed, and will report failures for ranks
that failed to respond in time. Note that if one rank does not reach the
monitored_barrier (for example due to a hang), all other ranks would fail
in monitored_barrier.
This collective will block all processes/ranks in the group, until the
whole group exits the function successfully, making it useful for debugging
and synchronizing. However, it can have a performance impact and should only
be used for debugging or scenarios that require full synchronization points
on the host-side. For debugging purposes, this barrier can be inserted
before the application's collective calls to check if any ranks are
desynchronized.

will throw on the first failed rank it encounters in order to fail

collect all failed ranks and throw an error containing information
