Merge inference pools into one to increase inference speed (#225)
It turns out using a separate pool for each block has led to significant slowdown, see #224 for details.

Report server version and dht.client_mode in rpc_info(), check for updates on startup (#209)
This PR:

1. Shows the current Petals version and checks for updates on startup.
2. Reports the current version and DHT mode in `rpc_info()`, so it can be shown on http://health.petals.ml or used on clients for efficient routing.

Return available cache size in rpc_info() (#191)
This PR makes servers return their free cache (in tokens * layers to make it compression-agnostic)

To be used when calling make_sequence(optimize="inference")

Add local tensor-parallel fwd/bwd (#143)
This pull request adds an option to run Petals server on multiple local GPUs. It uses https://github.com/BlackSamorez/tensor_parallel

- 8bit approximation error same as in main (mean~=2% q0.9~=5%)
    - TP=1, 2, 3 (see screenshots above)
- forward, grad w.r.t. input and inference exact match with main with TP=1
- `>=`80% GPU utilization with 3x 1080ti, batch = 8 tokens
- throughput measured with and without TP
- TP on 1080Tis has near-linear speedup comparable to the benchmarks (see first message)

Shield alloc & free from cancellation (#163)
A handler's RPC code may be cancelled due to a request timeout or a client closing the connection. Before this PR:

- If `.cancel()` happens while waiting for `hivemind.utils.enter_asynchronously()`, the lock will never be released.
- If `.cancel()` happens while doing that before freeing memory, the memory will never be freed.

This PR fixes it by deferring the cancellation with [asyncio.shield()](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.shield). Now, the cancellation will happen only when all locks are released and alloc/free has completed.

Fix dtypes in backend schemas (#99)
Currently, the schemas use `torch.float32`, so all inputs and outputs converted to float32 before sending and after receiving on both servers and clients. This creates a huge slowdown for the system.

* This PR makes the schemas use the server's `--torch_dtype` argument (default is `torch.bloat16` for BLOOM-176B)
* an option for client to request a specific output compression. Use case 1: client sends quantized inputs and expects quantized inputs in return. Use case 2: client uses quantization for gradients w.r.t. activations, but keeps grads w.r.t. __prompts__ as is for greater precision.
* a comment explaining the purpose of NoSpendingPolicy - since we likely won't have it for the workshop
* a test with custom compression (janky implementation for testing purposes)

Make Petals a pip-installable package (attempt 2) (#102)
1. Petals can be now installed using `pip install git+https://github.com/bigscience-workshop/petals`
    - In case if you already cloned the repo, you can do `pip install .` or `pip install .[dev]`
2. Moved `src` => `src/petals`
    - Replaced `from src.smth import smth` with `from petals.smth import smth`
3. Moved `cli` => `src/petals/cli`
    - Replaced `python -m cli.run_smth` with `python -m petals.cli.run_smth` (all utilities are now available right after pip installation)
4. Moved the `requirements*.txt` contents to `setup.cfg` (`requirements.txt` for packages is not supported well by modern packaging utils)
5. Increased the package version from `0.2` to `1.0alpha1`
