Build openfold with newer ppytorch + cuda

[chunhui-shi]

Right now openfold asks for old pytorch + cuda (11.2), thus latest linux is not able to build openfold.

Would like to upgrade the supported pytorch + cuda and other python packages accordingly, so people can use newer platform(OS, etc)

[vaclavhanzl]

Indeed, preparing the environment on newer platform is far from easy. I just did it this way on my Debian testing rolling setup:

mamba create -n of
mamba activate of
mamba install -c pytorch -c nvidia -c conda-forge -c bioconda pytorch pytorch-cuda=12.1 python=3.10 packaging ninja hhsuite kalign2 openmm pdbfixer biopython pytorch-lightning PyYAML tqdm wandb awscli aria2 hmmer deepspeed dm-tree py3Dmol modelcif
pip install flash-attention ml_collections git+https://github.com/NVIDIA/dllogger.git
git clone [email protected]:aqlaboratory/openfold.git
cd openfold
sed -i -e 's/-std=c++14/-std=c++17/' setup.py 
scripts/install_third_party_dependencies.sh
mamba deactivate
mamba activate of

When iterating towards these lines, I encountered few pitfalls:

• hhsuite requires python 10 (not 11)
• pytorch 2.2.0 requiers compilation with c++17, not 14
• you really need well installed CUDA (that it worked for other things is not enough)

And the preceding CUDA setup has pitfalls as well:

• non-free-firmware section is new in Debian, might be missing in sources.list but is vital
• recent Nvidia Ampere driver does not compile with recent Linux kernel but Debian has fixed driver in bookworm-updates

I find CUDA setup via Debian repos easier than via Nvidia (in fact at this moment the critical bug 4336331 in Nvidia driver is only fixed in Debian). I add these sources:

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main non-free contrib non-free-firmware
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main non-free contrib non-free-firmware

and install:

apt install nvidia-cuda-dev nvidia-cuda-toolkit

It is possible that OpenFold will need some little tweeks here and there with this setup. But I hope this helps a little bit...

[vaclavhanzl]

Meanwhile, PR #407 just landed in the codebase (thanks @jnwei and everybody involved!) and it is supposed to tackle these issues. While it certainly moves the code forward (and may likely contain some needed "tweeks here and there" I mentioned above), it still does not allow me to install an environment just following the install instructions in README. When I do:

mamba env create -n openfold_env -f environment.yml

it tries to install some older packages than PR407 description suggests:

Looking for: ['python=3.9', 'libgcc=7.2', 'setuptools=59.5.0', 'pip', 'openmm=7.7', 'pdbfixer', 'cudatoolkit=11.3', 'pytorch-lightning==1.5.10', 'biopython==1.79', 'numpy==1.21', 'pandas==2.0', 'pyyaml==5.4.1', 'requests', 'scipy==1.7', 'tqdm==4.62.2', 'typing-extensions==3.10', 'wandb==0.12.21', 'modelcif==0.7', 'awscli', 'ml-collections', 'aria2', 'git', 'bioconda::hmmer==3.3.2', 'bioconda::hhsuite==3.3.0', 'bioconda::kalign2==2.04', 'pytorch::pytorch=1.12']

and then fails with:

      RuntimeError:
      The detected CUDA version (12.0) mismatches the version that was used to compile
      PyTorch (11.3). Please make sure to use the same CUDA versions.

In the current environment.yml I find suspicious pytorch-lightning==1.5.10 which might lead to older Pytorch (?), in my experiments above I got pytorch-lightning=2.1.3. (Or maybe python=3.9 is a problem? Certainly python=3.10 worked better for me and might influence the available Pytorch versions.)

Also, the C++14/17 patch (which I did above via sed) would likely be needed for the following compilation in scripts/install_third_party_dependencies.sh to succeed.

[vaclavhanzl]

@abeebyekeen I see that you also devoted considerable effort to setting up environment.yml. It would be nice to hear how your current setup works for you. (I am particularly interested in effects of the 'cuda' conda package - maybe it allows even more minimalist cuda setup in the operating system? Just kernel driver?) Or how it compares with my setup (2nd post in this thread) if you have any incentive to try.

[abeebyekeen]

Hi @vaclavhanzl. Yes, I spent a good part of last weekend trying to setup a tool that requires openfold as a dependency. I was initially unable to build openfold due to a number of problems including -std=c++14 , gcc/g++, CUDA version mismatch errors as you have mentioned. Please note that I also had other CUDA errors thrown by pytorch. So I created a fork to try and figure out where each error was coming from (especially with building openfold).

Here are what I've got and the selections that eventually worked for me in solving all the problems:

• Python version: 3.9.18
• Linux: Red Hat 4.8.5-44, 3.10.0-1160.88.1.el7.x86_64

$ nvcc --version
nvcc: NVIDIA (R) Cuda compiler driver
Copyright (c) 2005-2022 NVIDIA Corporation
Built on Wed_Sep_21_10:33:58_PDT_2022
Cuda compilation tools, release 11.8, V11.8.89
Build cuda_11.8.r11.8/compiler.31833905_0

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 8.3.0
Copyright (C) 2018 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

For the environment I needed, here is how I set it up:

mamba create -npl python==3.9 pip mamba activate npl mamba install cudatoolkit==11.8.* python -m pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118 --no-cache-dir python -m pip install torch-scatter==2.1.2 -f https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-2.2.0+118.html --no-cache-dir python -m pip install "git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d.git" --force-reinstall --no-deps --no-cache-dir

To get openfold to build, I was able to use the environment.yml in the openfold repo without changes. I, however, had to use a gcc version between 5. and 11., and also set the build flags in setup.py to std=c++17 just like @vaclavhanzl did:

git clone https://github.com/aqlaboratory/openfold.git
cd openfold
sed -i 's/std=c++14/std=c++17/g' setup.py
python -m pip install .

python -m pip install -r other_requirements.txt

And that works perfectly.

[vaclavhanzl]

Thanks a lot @abeebyekeen for sharing this with us, in a very clear way! I'd very much like to see OpenFold working out of the box for most new users, especially now when there are new great and publicized features. I still do not know how a PR going that way should look, addressing different setups people might have is hard. I was thinking about having ranges of versions in environment.yml but that is not an easy way either. I guess @jnwei might have some plan here and I hope we help at least a little bit to move that way.

[jnwei]

Hi all,

Thanks for all the interest and for sharing notes! The environments I wanted to support at this time were:

• For use with CUDA 11.x: (main branch) pytorch 1.12 + pytorch lightning 1.5.10 (+ flash-attn dependencies)
• For use with CUDA 12.x: (pl_upgrades) pytorch 2.1 + pytorch lightning 2.x

I just checked that the pl_upgrades branch on two systems I have access to with pre-installed CUDA 12, and found that they were working for me. Let me know if folks have issues with this environments.

My understanding was that having an environment which is CUDA 11.x + Pytorch 2.x is complicated, as the default pytorch 2 packages are built on CUDA 12 (leading to the CUDA mismatch error @vaclavhanzl saw). It looks like @abeebyekeen was able to find a workaround with a lot of elbow grease, thanks for sharing your fix!

I plan on cleaning up the documentation for this project and when I do, I'll add a page regarding the supported environments.

[vaclavhanzl]

Thanks @jnwei ! I am happy to report that the pl_upgrades branch works flawlessly with my CUDA 12, including compilations in install_third_party_dependencies.sh (the end of the 2nd post here describes my exact environment outside conda).

(And please @jnwei excuse my rather misguided comments on PR #407 - I totally overlooked that you merged to pl_upgrades, not to main.)

[wenyan4work]

quick question about future plan: is pl_upgrades going to be merged into master?

[lm-jkominek]

Hi there, just wanted to follow up on this and ask if there are any plans/timelines to merge pl_upgrades into main to get the CUDA12 support into openfold? Many thanks in advance! @vaclavhanzl @jnwei

[jnwei]

Hi thanks for the interest. We're actively working on finalizing the changes in pl_upgrades into main. I'd expect ~3ish weeks

[lm-jkominek]

Thank you @jnwei , appreciate the update!

[jnwei]

A quick note on the pytorch 2 / CUDA 12 upgrade:

We've run into some technical issues with the pytorch 2 upgrade. Briefly, we observe large instabilities in our training losses in the pytorch2 version relative to our pytorch 1 version.

For inference, we're also observing a slight difference between model outputs in pytorch 1 and pytorch 2. The difference in final output coordinates is about RMSD~0.05A for the proteins I've looked at While these differences might seem small, it may point to a larger issue that is also occurring in training; we're currently looking into it.

Until we find the root cause of the discrepancy, or a way around the training instability, we're not ready to update the main branch to pytorch 2.

Meanwhile, we will upgrade the main branch to use pytorch lightning 2, which has a few features that the team has found useful. I'll also push some changes to pl_upgrades that integrate some of the changes from the main branch, and cleans up the conda environment / docker for a CUDA 12 / pytorch 2.

We are actively working on debugging the instability, and we'll keep you posted as soon as we are ready to upgrade. Thank you all for your interest and your patience.

Any help would be appreciated!

I just checked that the pl_upgrades branch on two systems I have access to with pre-installed CUDA 12, and found that they were working for me. Let me know if folks have issues with this environments.

It doesn't appear working now, see issue #477

I also recommend cuda-nvcc=12.4.131 to get it closer to a complete environment, this is recommended over installing it with system packages.
