"""Select the diffusion transformer's attention backend.
|
|
|
|
diffusers exposes a unified ``transformer.set_attention_backend(name)`` dispatcher that
|
|
swaps the scaled-dot-product-attention kernel, validating hardware/package requirements at
|
|
set time and otherwise leaving the default (``native`` = ``F.scaled_dot_product_attention``).
|
|
Attention is memory-bandwidth bound, so a better kernel is a real end-to-end win that is
|
|
orthogonal to the linear-weight quantisation (it speeds the QK/PV matmuls torchao never
|
|
touches) and composes with torch.compile.
|
|
|
|
auto - the best *exact* (non-quantized) backend for the device. On NVIDIA CUDA that is
|
|
cuDNN's fused attention (``_native_cudnn``), measured ~1.18x end-to-end on a B200
|
|
with LPIPS ~0.004 vs the default (below the compile/quant noise floor). On
|
|
AMD/Intel/Apple/CPU it stays ``native`` (the dispatcher already routes those).
|
|
``auto`` only upgrades when a speed profile is active, so ``speed_mode=off`` stays
|
|
bit-identical.
|
|
native - force the default SDPA (bit-identical reference).
|
|
cudnn - cuDNN fused attention (exact; NVIDIA).
|
|
flash / flash3 / flash4 - FlashAttention 2 / 3 (Hopper) / 4 (SM100); exact, kernel-gated.
|
|
sage - SageAttention (INT8 QK); quantized, a small quality cost, consumer-friendly.
|
|
xformers / aiter - memory-efficient (NVIDIA) / AITER (AMD ROCm).
|
|
|
|
Best-effort: an unavailable backend (missing kernel / wrong arch) is caught and the load
|
|
falls back to the diffusers default rather than failing. torch/diffusers imported lazily.
