# Inference on GPU
|
|
|
|
Apart from the significant acceleration capabilites on Intel CPUs, IPEX-LLM also supports optimizations and acceleration for running LLMs (large language models) on Intel GPUs. With IPEX-LLM, PyTorch models (in FP16/BF16/FP32) can be optimized with low-bit quantizations (supported precisions include INT4, INT5, INT8, etc).
|
|
|
|
Compared with running on Intel CPUs, some additional operations are required on Intel GPUs. To help you better understand the process, here we use a popular model [Llama-2-7b-chat-hf](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf) as an example.
|
|
|
|
**Make sure you have prepared environment following instructions [here](../install_gpu.md).**
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> If you are using an older version of `ipex-llm` (specifically, older than 2.5.0b20240104), you need to manually add `import intel_extension_for_pytorch as ipex` at the beginning of your code.
|
|
|
|
## Load and Optimize Model
|
|
|
|
You could choose to use [PyTorch API](./optimize_model.md) or [`transformers`-style API](./transformers_style_api.md) on Intel GPUs according to your preference.
|
|
|
|
**Once you have the model with IPEX-LLM low bit optimization, set it to `to('xpu')`**.
|
|
|
|
- For **PyTorch API**:
|
|
|
|
You could optimize any PyTorch model with "one-line code change", and the loading and optimizing process on Intel GPUs maybe as follows:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Take Llama-2-7b-chat-hf as an example
|
|
from transformers import LlamaForCausalLM
|
|
from ipex_llm import optimize_model
|
|
|
|
model = LlamaForCausalLM.from_pretrained('meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf', torch_dtype='auto', low_cpu_mem_usage=True)
|
|
model = optimize_model(model) # With only one line to enable IPEX-LLM INT4 optimization
|
|
|
|
model = model.to('xpu') # Important after obtaining the optimized model
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**:
|
|
>
|
|
> When running LLMs on Intel iGPUs for Windows users, we recommend setting `cpu_embedding=True` in the `optimize_model` function. This will allow the memory-intensive embedding layer to utilize the CPU instead of iGPU.
|
|
>
|
|
> See the [API doc](../../PythonAPI/optimize.md) for ``optimize_model`` to find more information.
|
|
|
|
Especially, if you have saved the optimized model following setps [here](./optimize_model.md#save), the loading process on Intel GPUs maybe as follows:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from transformers import LlamaForCausalLM
|
|
from ipex_llm.optimize import low_memory_init, load_low_bit
|
|
|
|
saved_dir='./llama-2-ipex-llm-4-bit'
|
|
with low_memory_init(): # Fast and low cost by loading model on meta device
|
|
model = LlamaForCausalLM.from_pretrained(saved_dir,
|
|
torch_dtype="auto",
|
|
trust_remote_code=True)
|
|
model = load_low_bit(model, saved_dir) # Load the optimized model
|
|
|
|
model = model.to('xpu') # Important after obtaining the optimized model
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- For **``transformers``-style API**:
|
|
|
|
You could run any Hugging Face Transformers model with `transformers`-style API, and the loading and optimizing process on Intel GPUs maybe as follows:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Take Llama-2-7b-chat-hf as an example
|
|
from ipex_llm.transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
|
|
|
|
# Load model in 4 bit, which convert the relevant layers in the model into INT4 format
|
|
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained('meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf', load_in_4bit=True)
|
|
|
|
model = model.to('xpu') # Important after obtaining the optimized model
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**:
|
|
>
|
|
> When running LLMs on Intel iGPUs for Windows users, we recommend setting `cpu_embedding=True` in the `from_pretrained` function. This will allow the memory-intensive embedding layer to utilize the CPU instead of iGPU.
|
|

|
|
> See the [API doc](../../PythonAPI/transformers.md) to find more information.
|
|
|
|
Especially, if you have saved the optimized model following setps [here](./hugging_face_format.md#save--load), the loading process on Intel GPUs maybe as follows:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from ipex_llm.transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
|
|
|
|
saved_dir='./llama-2-ipex-llm-4-bit'
|
|
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.load_low_bit(saved_dir) # Load the optimized model
|
|
|
|
model = model.to('xpu') # Important after obtaining the optimized model
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**:
|
|
>
|
|
> When running saved optimized models on Intel iGPUs for Windows users, we also recommend setting `cpu_embedding=True` in the `load_low_bit` function.
|
|
|
|
## Run Optimized Model
|
|
|
|
You could then do inference using the optimized model on Intel GPUs almostly the same as on CPUs. **The only difference is to set `to('xpu')` for input tensors.**
|
|
|
|
Continuing with the [example of Llama-2-7b-chat-hf](#load-and-optimize-model), running as follows:
|
|
```python
|
|
import torch
|
|
|
|
with torch.inference_mode():
|
|
prompt = 'Q: What is CPU?\nA:'
|
|
input_ids = tokenizer.encode(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to('xpu') # With .to('xpu') specifically for inference on Intel GPUs
|
|
output = model.generate(input_ids, max_new_tokens=32)
|
|
output_str = tokenizer.decode(output[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> The initial generation of optimized LLMs on Intel GPUs could be slow. Therefore, it's recommended to perform a **warm-up** run before the actual generation.
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> If you are a Windows user, please also note that for **the first time** that **each model** runs on Intel iGPU/Intel Arc™ A300-Series or Pro A60, it may take several minutes to compile.
