    process_rank: int,
    world_size: int,
    distributed_device_ids: List[int],
    func: Callable,
    func_args: Tuple = None,

run_distributed_test

def run_distributed_test(
    device_ids: List[int] = None,
    func: Callable = None,
    *args,
    **kwargs
)

This runs the func in a simulated distributed environment.

Parameters

• device_ids : List[int]
  List of devices. There need to be at least 2 devices. Default is [-1, -1].

• func : Callable
func needs to be global for spawning the processes, so that it can be pickled.
