Phi: static cache & compile compatibility

[zucchini-nlp]

What does this PR do?

This PR enables compile for Phi models. Checked the correctness by running speed benchmark script (the results is below) and a test for dynamic vs static match.

A few observations while testing the generation quality:

• using static cache sometimes generates total gibberish in batched input, when the input gets left padded + kinda right padded because of the static cache. Yes, the attn mask is there, but for some reason the generation gets better only when i try to crop trailing zeros at the end of key/values
• The tests I ran were without logits check, those are failing right now for compiled static cache condition (with a tolerance=0.1)

@zucchini-nlp to clarify:

using static cache sometimes generates total gibberish in batched input, when the input gets left padded + kinda right padded because of the static cache. Yes, the attn mask is there, but for some reason the generation gets better only when i try to crop trailing zeros at the end of key/values

This is with static cache AND compile, correct? Without compile it has no problems, correct? (I haven't seen them yet, if it happens without compile a reproduction example would be helpful!)

I found some pattern that it happens only in eager-fp32 precision for Phi models, while in half-precision everything is okay. Since Llama is also compile compatible, I tested on that and found Llama has garbage generation in eager-fp16 😭

I am quite lost right now about what might be the issue, I will try to investigate more next week. If you have time, feel free to take a look. The below commands will reproduce it with the provided script in PR description

python static.py --attn_implementation eager --static_cache_enabled --dtype fp16 --model_name_or_path meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf -> for DynamicCache
python static.py --attn_implementation eager --static_cache_enabled --dtype fp32 --model_name_or_path microsoft/phi-2 -> for Compiled StaticCache

[zucchini-nlp]

@gante as we discussed, I will not dig into the gibberish generation for fp32. In that case the PR should be ready to merge when we get the slow-test passing. Pushed a [run-slow] commit, can you approve it to run?

[hegderavin]

Can you please port the changes to Phi3 as well? I can help test it if you want

[zucchini-nlp]

@hegderavin sure, we will be porting models one by one (#28981). Right now I am waiting for this PR to be merged, so that we can work on other models

I can add Phi3 as a separate PR around next week, if you wanted to pull changes and compile the model :)

[zucchini-nlp]

Updates:

1. Added Phi3 as per the above requests. But Phi3 cannot do sliding window in flash attention with static cache. Should it be able to? I think it's doable but I didn't change anything yet, cause I am not sure if it's a real use-case.
2. Added SDPA support for Phi3, which was available in the code, but the attribute _supports_sdpa=True was missing

Also, I wanted to suggest to move _update_causal_mask to modeling_utils.py, given that we're getting more and more static cache models.

Perhaps. It is not a model architecture piece of code, but rather an input preparation one, so it could make sense to live in a shared module. Raise the discussion on slack!

Have you looked into the SlidingWindowCache class? It's a static cache with a sliding window :)

Perfect, this will do the work, thanks!

(lmk when it is ready for a re-review)

[helunwencser]

hi @zucchini-nlp , @gante is there any more update on this PR? I want to use phi-3 with static cache. This PR is super useful.

[zucchini-nlp]

@helunwencser this PR moved a bit into https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/31421#pullrequestreview-2174270753 where we're handling new format cache for all models. That PR probably will enable compile for all models, except for some cases when there's a model-specific dynamic control flow. I am planning to deal with that after the PR is merged

Also, regarding Phi-3, it has a dynamic control flow if we use scaled RoPE embeddings and I didn't decide how to better solve this issue.

EDIT: hehe, sorry, I forgot that we already merged Phi with new cache format, So it should be compilable as long as you use the '4k' checkpoint which has no scaling. For scaling, the PR is coming soon

[helunwencser]

Thanks! Unfortunately I need to use StaticCache for Phi3. Looking forward to having the new PR.

[zucchini-nlp]

closing as Phi will be compile compatible in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/32617 and for Phi3 we have to wait dynamic control flow support from Pytorch
