+
+    This has the option to accumulate the result of backprop

+    to do an additional addition kernel after the gradient
+    calculation.
+
+    Additionally, the tensor parallel all reduce of the input

+
+    In the case of sequence parallelism, the reduce scatter of the

+
+    Use of this module requires that the environment variable
+    CUDA_DEVICE_MAX_CONNECTIONS=1. There are a few collective
+    operations, noted in the code, that should be scheduled before
+    compute kernels to overlap the communication with the computation,
+    which is necessary for a speedup but not for correctness so that
+    ordering isn't imposed by the scheduler. Setting
+    CUDA_DEVICE_MAX_CONNECTIONS=1 forces the kernels to be scheduled

+
+    Arguments:

+    weight (torch.Tensor required): weight like torch.nn.functional.linear

+        fused_weight_gradient_mlp_cuda module. To use
+        gradient_accumulation_fusion you must install APEX with

+        " Note that the extension requires CUDA>=11. Otherwise, you

+
+    async_grad_allreduce (bool required): Do the allreduce of input
+        gradients asyncronously with the computation of weight
+        gradients. If sequence_parallel_enabled is True, this must be
+        False, as no all reduce is performed.
+
+    sequence_parallel_enabled (bool required): Indicates that sequence
+        parallelism is used and thus in the forward pass the input is

+        reduce scattered.
