* mm: default to 0 for NUM_STREAMS
Dont count the compute stream as an offload stream. This makes async
offload accounting easier.
* mm: remove 128MB minimum
This is from a previous offloading system requirement. Remove it to
make behaviour of the loader and partial unloader consistent.
* mp: order the module list by offload expense
Calculate an approximate offloading temporary VRAM cost to offload a
weight and primary order the module load list by that. In the simple
case this is just the same as the module weight, but with Loras, a
weight with a lora consumes considerably more VRAM to do the Lora
application on-the-fly.
This will slightly prioritize lora weights, but is really for
proper VRAM offload accounting.
* mp: Account for the VRAM cost of weight offloading
when checking the VRAM headroom, assume that the weight needs to be
offloaded, and only load if it has space for both the load and offload
* the number of streams.
As the weights are ordered from largest to smallest by offload cost
this is guaranteed to fit in VRAM (tm), as all weights that follow
will be smaller.
Make the partial unload aware of this system as well by saving the
budget for offload VRAM to the model state and accounting accordingly.
Its possible that partial unload increases the size of the largest
offloaded weights, and thus needs to unload a little bit more than
asked to accomodate the bigger temp buffers.
Honor the existing codes floor on model weight loading of 128MB by
having the patcher honor this separately withough regard to offloading.
Otherwise when MM specifies its 128MB minimum, MP will see the biggest
weights, and budget that 128MB to only offload buffer and load nothing
which isnt the intent of these minimums. The same clamp applies in
case of partial offload of the currently loading model.
The partial unloader path in model re-use flow skips straight to the
actual unload without any check of the patching UUID. This means that
if you do an upscale flow with a model patch on an existing model, it
will not apply your patchings.
Fix by delaying the partial_unload until after the uuid checks. This
is done by making partial_unload a model of partial_load where extra_mem
is -ve.
* mm: factor out the current stream getter
Make this a reusable function.
* ops: sync the offload stream with the consumption of w&b
This sync is nessacary as pytorch will queue cuda async frees on the
same stream as created to tensor. In the case of async offload, this
will be on the offload stream.
Weights and biases can go out of scope in python which then
triggers the pytorch garbage collector to queue the free operation on
the offload stream possible before the compute stream has used the
weight. This causes a use after free on weight data leading to total
corruption of some workflows.
So sync the offload stream with the compute stream after the weight
has been used so the free has to wait for the weight to be used.
The cast_bias_weight is extended in a backwards compatible way with
the new behaviour opt-in on a defaulted parameter. This handles
custom node packs calling cast_bias_weight and defeatures
async-offload for them (as they do not handle the race).
The pattern is now:
cast_bias_weight(... , offloadable=True) #This might be offloaded
thing(weight, bias, ...)
uncast_bias_weight(...)
* controlnet: adopt new cast_bias_weight synchronization scheme
This is nessacary for safe async weight offloading.
* mm: sync the last stream in the queue, not the next
Currently this peeks ahead to sync the next stream in the queue of
streams with the compute stream. This doesnt allow a lot of
parallelization, as then end result is you can only get one weight load
ahead regardless of how many streams you have.
Rotate the loop logic here to synchronize the end of the queue before
returning the next stream. This allows weights to be loaded ahead of the
compute streams position.
When unloading models in load_models_gpu(), the model finalizer was not
being explicitly detached, leading to a memory leak. This caused
linear memory consumption increase over time as models are repeatedly
loaded and unloaded.
This change prevents orphaned finalizer references from accumulating in
memory during model switching operations.
These are not real controlnets but actually a patch on the model so they
will be treated as such.
Put them in the models/model_patches/ folder.
Use the new ModelPatchLoader and QwenImageDiffsynthControlnet nodes.
* Change bf16 check and switch non-blocking to off default with option to force to regain speed on certain classes of iGPUs and refactor xpu check.
* Turn non_blocking off by default for xpu.
* Update README.md for Intel GPUs.
