Memory-efficient attention

class xformers.ops.AttentionBias[source]

Bases: object

Base class for a custom bias that can be applied as the attn_bias argument in

xformers.ops.memory_efficient_attention.

That function has the ability to add a tensor, the attention bias, to the QK^T matrix before it is used in the softmax part of the attention calculation. The attention bias tensor with shape (B or 1, n_queries, number of keys) can be given as the attn_bias input. The most common use case is for an attention bias is to contain only zeros and negative infinities, which forms a mask so that some queries only attend to some keys.

Children of this class define alternative things which can be used as the attn_bias input to define an attention bias which forms such a mask, for some common cases.

When using an xformers.ops.AttentionBias instead of a torch.Tensor, the mask matrix does not need to be materialized, and can be hardcoded into some kernels for better performance.

See:

materialize(shape: Tuple[int, ...], dtype: dtype = torch.float32, device: Union[str, device] = 'cpu') → Tensor[source]

Materializes the bias as a torch.Tensor. This is very slow and we don’t attempt to make it fast. Only use for debugging/testing.

Shape should be like [*, q_seqlen, k_seqlen]

class xformers.ops.AttentionOpBase[source]

Bases: BaseOperator

Base class for any attention operator in xFormers

See:

classmethod not_supported_reasons(d: Inputs) → List[str][source]

Returns a list of reasons why this is not supported. The kernel can run these inputs only if the returned list is empty

xformers.ops.memory_efficient_attention(query: Tensor, key: Tensor, value: Tensor, attn_bias: Optional[Union[Tensor, AttentionBias]] = None, p: float = 0.0, scale: Optional[float] = None, *, op: Optional[Tuple[Optional[Type[AttentionFwOpBase]], Optional[Type[AttentionBwOpBase]]]] = None, output_dtype: Optional[dtype] = None) → Tensor[source]

Implements the memory-efficient attention mechanism following “Self-Attention Does Not Need O(n^2) Memory”.

Inputs shape

  • Input tensors must be in format [B, M, H, K], where B is the batch size, M the sequence length, H the number of heads, and K the embeding size per head

  • If inputs have dimension 3, it is assumed that the dimensions are [B, M, K] and H=1

  • Inputs can also be of dimension 5 with GQA - see note below

  • Inputs can be non-contiguous - we only require the last dimension’s stride to be 1

Equivalent pytorch code

scale = 1.0 / query.shape[-1] ** 0.5
query = query * scale
query = query.transpose(1, 2)
key = key.transpose(1, 2)
value = value.transpose(1, 2)
attn = query @ key.transpose(-2, -1)
if attn_bias is not None:
    attn = attn + attn_bias
attn = attn.softmax(-1)
attn = F.dropout(attn, p)
attn = attn @ value
return attn.transpose(1, 2)
Examples

import xformers.ops as xops

# Compute regular attention
y = xops.memory_efficient_attention(q, k, v)

# With a dropout of 0.2
y = xops.memory_efficient_attention(q, k, v, p=0.2)

# Causal attention
y = xops.memory_efficient_attention(
    q, k, v,
    attn_bias=xops.LowerTriangularMask()
)
Supported hardware

NVIDIA GPUs with compute capability above 6.0 (P100+), datatype f16, bf16 and f32.

EXPERIMENTAL

Using with Multi Query Attention (MQA) and Grouped Query Attention (GQA):

MQA/GQA is an experimental feature supported only for the forward pass. If you have 16 heads in query, and 2 in key/value, you can provide 5-dim tensors in the [B, M, G, H, K] format, where G is the number of head groups (here 2), and H is the number of heads per group (8 in the example).

Please note that xFormers will not automatically broadcast the inputs, so you will need to broadcast it manually before calling memory_efficient_attention.

GQA/MQA example

import torch
import xformers.ops as xops

B, M, K = 3, 32, 128
kwargs = dict(device="cuda", dtype=torch.float16)
q = torch.randn([B, M, 8, K], **kwargs)
k = torch.randn([B, M, 2, K], **kwargs)
v = torch.randn([B, M, 2, K], **kwargs)
out_gqa = xops.memory_efficient_attention(
    q.reshape([B, M, 2, 4, K]),
    k.reshape([B, M, 2, 1, K]).expand([B, M, 2, 4, K]),
    v.reshape([B, M, 2, 1, K]).expand([B, M, 2, 4, K]),
)
Raises
Parameters

  • query – Tensor of shape [B, Mq, H, K]

  • key – Tensor of shape [B, Mkv, H, K]

  • value – Tensor of shape [B, Mkv, H, Kv]

  • attn_bias – Bias to apply to the attention matrix - defaults to no masking. For common biases implemented efficiently in xFormers, see xformers.ops.fmha.attn_bias.AttentionBias. This can also be a torch.Tensor for an arbitrary mask (slower).

  • p – Dropout probability. Disabled if set to 0.0

  • scale – Scaling factor for Q @ K.transpose(). If set to None, the default scale (q.shape[-1]**-0.5) will be used.

  • op – The operators to use - see xformers.ops.AttentionOpBase. If set to None (recommended), xFormers will dispatch to the best available operator, depending on the inputs and options.

Returns

multi-head attention Tensor with shape [B, Mq, H, Kv]

class xformers.ops.fmha.attn_bias.LocalAttentionFromBottomRightMask(window_left: int, window_right: int)[source]

Bases: AttentionBias

A local attention mask

The query at position \(q\) can attend the key at position \(k\) if \(q - window\_left <= k + s <= q + window\_right\)

With \(s = num\_queries - num\_keys\)

Example

bias = fmha.attn_bias.LocalAttentionFromBottomRightMask(window_left=1, window_right=2)
print(bias.materialize(shape=(4, 4)).exp())
print(bias.materialize(shape=(4, 5)).exp())

class xformers.ops.fmha.attn_bias.LowerTriangularMask(*tensor_args, **tensor_kwargs)[source]

Bases: AttentionBias

A lower-triangular (aka causal) mask

A query Q cannot attend to a key which is farther from the initial key than Q is from the initial query.

See also LowerTriangularFromBottomRightMask if the number of queries is not equal to the number of keys/values.

add_bias(bias: Tensor) → LowerTriangularMaskWithTensorBias[source]

Creates a new causal mask with an arbitrary torch.Tensor bias

class xformers.ops.fmha.attn_bias.LowerTriangularFromBottomRightMask[source]

Bases: AttentionBias

A causal masking.

This mask is exactly the same as LowerTriangularMask when there is the same number of queries and keys. When the number of queries is different from the number of keys, it is a triangular mask shifted so that the last query can attend to the last key. In other words, a query Q cannot attend to a key which is nearer the final key than Q is to the final query.

../_images/causal_bottom_right.png

The difference between LowerTriangularMask (left) and LowerTriangularFromBottomRightMask (right). They become equivalent if the number of queries equals the number of keys.

See LowerTriangularFromBottomRightLocalAttentionMask

class xformers.ops.fmha.attn_bias.BlockDiagonalMask(q_seqinfo: _SeqLenInfo, k_seqinfo: _SeqLenInfo, _batch_sizes: Optional[Sequence[int]] = None)[source]

Bases: AttentionBias

A block-diagonal mask that can be passed as attn_bias argument to xformers.ops.memory_efficient_attention.

Queries and Keys are each divided into the same number of blocks. Queries in block i only attend to keys in block i.

../_images/block_diag_bias.png

This bias can be used to handle a batch of sequences of different lengths, via BlockDiagonalMask.from_tensor_list

import torch
from xformers.ops import fmha

K = 16
dtype = torch.float16
device = "cuda"
list_x = [
    torch.randn([1, 3, 1, K], dtype=dtype, device=device),
    torch.randn([1, 6, 1, K], dtype=dtype, device=device),
    torch.randn([1, 2, 1, K], dtype=dtype, device=device),
]
attn_bias, x = fmha.BlockDiagonalMask.from_tensor_list(list_x)
linear = torch.nn.Linear(K, K * 3).to(device=device, dtype=dtype)

q, k, v = linear(x).reshape([1, -1, 1, 3, K]).unbind(-2)
out = fmha.memory_efficient_attention(q, k, v, attn_bias=attn_bias)
list_out = attn_bias.split(out)

Bases: BlockDiagonalMask

Same as xformers.ops.fmha.attn_bias.BlockDiagonalMask, except that each block is causal.

Bases: BlockDiagonalMask

Same as xformers.ops.fmha.attn_bias.BlockDiagonalMask, except that each block is causal. This mask allows for a non-causal prefix NOTE: Each block should have num_keys >= num_queries otherwise the forward pass is not defined (softmax of vector of -inf in the attention)

The keys and values are divided into blocks which are padded out to the same total length.

The queries are divided into blocks, without padding, of lengths given by q_seqlen.

A query Q in block i cannot attend to a key which is not in block i, nor one which is not in use (i.e. in the padded area).

The queries are divided into blocks, without padding, of lengths given by q_seqlen.
