Open source is common infrastructure used by everyone
What happens when infrastructure breaks?
The case of OpenSSL
Having worked with the Department of Defense, Marquess saw how
critical OpenSSL was, not just to their software, but to other industries
around the world, from enterprise to aeronautics to health care.
Until that moment, he had “always assumed, (as had the rest of the
world) that the OpenSSL team was large, active, and well resourced.” In
reality, OpenSSL wasn’t even able to support one person’s work.
-- Nadia Eghbal
Now what happens when numpy, jupyter or scipy breaks?
There is a single developers working on Pandas full time world wide
No full-time developer working on NumPy at the moment

THE AIR UP THERE A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1994 James Berardinelli
Rating (Linear 0 to 10): 4.9
Date Released: 1/7/93 Running Length: 1:47 Rated: PG (Language)
Starring: Kevin Bacon, Charles Gitonga Maina, Yolanda Vazquez, Winston Ntshona, Ilo Mutombo Director: Paul M. Glaser Producers: Ted Field, Rosalie Swedlin, and Robert W. Cort Screenplay: Max Apple Music: David Newman Released by Hollywood Pictures
In early 1992, Interscope Communications released a Paul Michael Glaser film called THE CUTTING EDGE. While admittedly not a great example of cinematic grandeur, this formula love story/sports movie had a certain charm which managed to lift it slightly above many similar films. Now, that same Paul Michael Glaser (also Starsky of STARSKY AND HUTCH fame) has turned his attention from skating and hockey to basketball. Once again backed by Interscope Communications, Glaser has fashioned another formula-choked motion picture, only this one doesn't boast Moira Kelly or D. B. Sweeney. THE AIR UP THERE makes it painfully clear how important their chemistry was to THE CUTTING EDGE, because without it, there's very little worthwhile remaining.
Once, Jimmy Dolan (Kevin Bacon) was the star point guard for the Saint Joseph's Bulls, leading his team to a National Championship. Then he blew out his leg and his hopes of playing in the NBA were crushed for good. Several years later, Dolan is one of two Bulls' assistant coaches, waiting for his opportunity to take the head seat. But, just as the old coach announces his retirement, Jimmy finds himself in the unenviable position of having chased away a promising recruit. To polish his tarnished image, he decides to take a big gamble and track down Saleh (Charles Gitonga Maina), a young native of the Winabi tribe in Africa who has shown amazing instincts for the game. After crossing the ocean to find his would-be star, however, Jimmy discovers that while Saleh may harbor fantasies about the NBA, but he is the son of the Winabi's chief, and his first duty is to his father and his village.
Anytime there's a movie strictly based on a formula, it has to have a hook to hold the audience. The biggest failing of THE AIR UP THERE is that, moving along for over one-hundred minutes with everyone doing the expected things, it has none. The big basketball game at the end lacks any semblance of tension since, unlike in a real (or even well-simulated) sporting event, the outcome is obvious from the beginning. Perhaps a romance might have spiced things up, but that probably would have taken away from several tedious male bonding scenes between Jimmy and Saleh.
With the except of the nagging tendency to use slow-motion shots, most of the pseudo-basketball games are well-choreographed. Glaser, who used Robin Cousins as a consultant in THE CUTTING EDGE, here uses Bob McAdoo with similar effective results. While several slam dunks are obviously staged, the scenes on the court look uniformly good.
Oddly enough, perhaps the most interesting element of THE AIR UP THERE--Jimmy's induction into the Winabi tribe--is given approximately five minutes of screen time. Potentially worth an entire movie in its own right, this sequence is relegated to a few quick clips of Kevin Bacon climbing a mountain and huddling against some rocks during a thunderstorm.
As premises go, the one underlying the major conflict of THE AIR UP THERE is feeble. It stretches credibility beyond the breaking point to imagine that two tribes would willingly battle each other in a basketball game for the rights to Winabi land, especially when one of the contestant doesn't have a team. Even in lighthearted movies like this, there are bounds to what a thinking audience will accept, which THE AIR UP THERE flouts.
Another problematical issue is that Saleh doesn't seem like the kind of phenom to engender the kind of interest he gets. In fact, from what we see, his brother is a better player. In that way, perhaps the casting of 18-year-old Charles Gitonga Maina is a mistake. He's adequate as an actor, but not all that impressive on the court.
Kevin Bacon is at his impish best, but even his bubbly performance can't save a film with this little substance. He manages to invest Jimmy Dolan with a few human traits, and he does his best with the trite "self-centered guy coming to really care for others" subplot, but there's only so much an actor can do with inferior material.
There are good basketball movies out there, HOOSIERS being the obvious example of a tightly-scripted story with a buildup to a rousing climax. THE AIR UP THERE is appealing and unthreatening, and therein lies its weakness--the unwillingness to take a risk.  It has the COOL RUNNINGS/MIGHTY DUCKS mentality--a lightweight, brainless family movie chronicling the triumph of the underdog.
As for Paul Michael Glaser, he should return to skating movies. This time around, he's on thin ice.

An R package for the dependent-adjusted Benjamini-Hochberg and step-up procedures
This R package implements the dependent-adjusted Benjamini-Hochberg procedure, Benjamini-Yekutieli procedure, and step-up procedures for parametric and non-parametric multiple testing problems with exact false discovery rate control. The procedures are proposed in our paper: Conditional calibration for false discovery rate control under dependence. The current version supports one- and two-sided tests on multivariate z-statistics (dBH_mvgauss
), multivariate t-statistis (dBH_mvt
), and fixed-design homoscedastic Gaussian linear models (dBH_lm
). The procedures for other problems will be added in the future versions.
if (!require("devtools")){
install.packages("devtools")
}
devtools::install_github("lihualei71/dbh")
We illustrate the usage of dBH_mvgauss
below. For details please read the manual.
library(dbh)
## basic example code
# Generate mu and Sigma for an AR process
n <- 100
rho <- 0.8
Sigma <- rho^(abs(outer(1:n, 1:n, "-")))
mu1 <- 2.5
nalt <- 10
mu <- c(rep(mu1, nalt), rep(0, n - nalt))
# Generate the z-values
set.seed(1)
zvals <- rep(NA, n)
zvals[1] <- rnorm(1)
for (i in 2:n){
zvals[i] <- zvals[i - 1] * rho + rnorm(1) * sqrt(1 - rho^2)
}
zvals <- zvals + mu
# Run dBH_1(\alpha) for one-sided tests
alpha <- 0.05
res <- dBH_mvgauss(zvals = zvals, Sigma = Sigma, side = "right", alpha = alpha,
gamma = 1, niter = 1, avals_type = "BH")
# Run dBH_1(\alpha) for two-sided tests

While the CRAN version of the package is updated once every month or two, the Github (Dev) version is updating on a daily bases. The following options allow you to keep the data updated with the ones available on the Dev version:
update_swiss_data
functionrefresh_covid19swiss
functionThe update_swiss_data
function enables to keep the installed version updated with the data available on Github. The function compared between the dataset on the installed version and the ones on the Dev version:
If no new data is available on the Dev version, the function will return the following message:
Once new data is available, the function will prompt the following question that enables the user to select whether to install the updates from the dev version:
In order to make the new data available, you will have to restart your R session.
Note: As frequent changes may occur on the raw data structure (such as new fields, retroactive updates in the data, etc.), the Dev version dataset may change accordingly.
Alternatively, you can read and load the data directly from the package repository, using the csv version:
swiss_df <- refresh_covid19swiss()
head(swiss_df)

The main difference between the first method (the update_swiss_data
function) and the second method (reading a CSV format of the data) is that on the first method the data will be available on future sessions. On the other hand, on the second method (with the refresh_covid19swiss
function), the data is loaded as object to the environment.

Welcome Message , by President Russell M. Nelson
This is a very short talk. The following points caught my attention.
We gather as a great global family desiring to worship our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
The desire is the why of what we are doing and is very important. If the desire is wrong then the activity cannot be blessed by God. It is difficult to determine someone desire; However, it is clear to God, Who grants unto us according to the righteous desires of our hearts, see Alma 41:3, 5-6
Some lessons that I knew before have been written on my heart in new and instructive ways.
This makes me think, What lessons I need to have written on my heart in new and instructive ways
?
...the strength of the Church lies in the efforts and ever-growing testimonies of its members.
Testimonies are best cultivated in the home...many of you have dramatically increased the
study of the gospel in your homes.
Is my testimony ever-growing
? Are we doing things in our home that best [cultivate]
testimonies?
How can we dramatically [increase] the study of the gospel in [our home]
?
I have thought about the need for each of us to remove, with the Savior’s help, the old debris in our lives.
What old debris in [my live]
do I need remove, with the Savior's help
?
The gospel of Jesus Christ is a gospel of repentance. Because of the Savior’s Atonement,
His gospel provides an invitation to keep changing, growing, and becoming more pure.
It is a gospel of hope, of healing, and of progress.
Thus, the gospel is a message of joy! Our spirits rejoice with every small step forward we take.
Am I changing, growing, and becoming more pure
?
...Heavenly Father and His Beloved Son know and love you individually.
They stand ready to assist you in every step forward you take.
Heavenly Father and His Beloved Son know and love [me].
They stand ready to assist [me] in every step forward [I] take.
Welcome to general conference and to the privilege of hearing the voice of the Lord.
It is my great privilege [to hear] the voice of the Lord
in general conference.

James McAvoy reveals he's been turned down for movies roles because of height
by Jessica NapoliJames McAvoy revealed he's been turned down for a number of movie roles because of his height.
The "X-Men" and "Split" actor, who is 5'7", told The Telegraph, “As a shorter man, I sometimes get told I’m too short for a role."
HOW JAMES MCAVOY PLAYED 9 CHARACTERS IN 'SPLIT'
"Or even when I get a role, I’m made to feel like, well, of course, we’re going to have to do something about that," the 40-year-old added in reference to an unnamed female co-star who said their on-screen relationship seemed unlikely because of their height difference.
She reportedly questioned McAvoy's casting “because nobody would believe [the character] would be with someone like her.”
“That was a kick in the nuts," he admitted.
'X-MEN' STAR JAMES MCAVOY JABS 'WANNABE' SUPERHERO RIVALS
“I was like, ‘All right, now I’ve got to pretend that I really like you for eight more weeks. This is going to be really tough, because you’re so far up yourself.’ It got really interesting, that relationship,” McAvoy continued said.

“Sometimes you’re made to feel like you’re not good-looking enough to get a role.”
McAvoy is currently starring in "His Dark Materials" on HBO.


Commentary about The Sweet Hereafter has had as much to do with Atom Egoyan as it has had to do with the film itself. Egoyan's career trajectory has followed a trajectory, that is made explicit by his latest film, from; small budgets to larger ones, family centered cast to professional, specific- personal themes to universal-personal etc... This makes questions of changes in quality or level of his work particularly important. The general consensus seems to be that while the merits of the film are clear, the position to whcih Egoyan seems to be going is questionable. I disagree.
Interestingly, the style here seems reminiscent of Egoyan's earlier films. Next of Kin in particular comes to mind. The simpler associative techniques, for instance, like the repeated tilts and pans linking key characters and events in each film. At the same time there are set pieces that convincingly demonstrate a new level of technical mastery; the muted crash scene is the best example. This has come about, in all likelihood, because of the fact that the scale of The Sweet Hereafter dwarfs anything Egoyan has done to date. On this basis, the film marks a new phase for the director. If one accepts that this is the analog to Next of Kin, with respect to this second phase, imagine the analog to The Adjuster...
After Exotica, the ante was raised and Egoyan has answered by making a film on a fairly large scale, addressing complex themes, in a responsible and challenging manner. Thematically, the film exposes the inadequacies of one of soceity's most treasured symbolic languages: the law. Specifically, in the face of issues such as community and redistribution. Egoyan's critique is savage and embedded in an intricate flashback structure that remains extremely clear throughout the film. It would have been very easy for the strategy to end up muddled, especially since the source material (Russell Banks' novel of the same title) is said to be more linear.
Impatiently awaiting installment 2-1.

Mushrooms (P. cubensis)
It was the last day of classes my freshman year.  Well me and a friend decided that this would not do, so we picked up some mushrooms instead. I had never shroomed before, but had done a decent ammount of other drugs including acid a few times. My friend had shroomed numerous times before.
I think the trouble began the night before when I decided to watch Darren Aronofsky's 'Requiem for a Dream'. It's an excellent movie, the only problem is that its main theme is the degradation of human existence due to drugs. I already had a question or two in my mind about where drugs were taking my life, and this movie didn't help any.
 I found that I couldn't down much food, which isn't rare for me, but this time it wasn't because I felt full so much as jittery. I figured I was just nervous about the coming experience (it had been a while since my last real drug experience, and the movie was of course still ringing in my head) and that I would just get over it and have a good time: bad idea.
I was able to eat the mushrooms (1/16 oz...nothing major) with the aid of a granola bar, and we headed down to a friend's room that was right next to the party. The whole way down the jitters wouldn't leave me and so I got more nervous. Finally after spending a couple minutes in the room I felt like I was gonna pop. The nervousness had turned into nausea, and I ran to the bathroom. I began to puke up what little I had eaten at lunch as well as various stems and parts of the granola bar. At this point I wasn't feeling the effects of the mushrooms, just sick. I kept thinking that this would just pass and once I puked it up I would be fine to go about my fun.
I will sum the next part up as quickly as possible, but don't let this distract you from the gravity of the situation. My friend who was also shrooming and another friend who was only slowly sipping a beer watched for the next two or so hours as I writhed on the floor of the room, assuming the fetal position whenever possible, in sheer terror and agony. Though I wouldn't say as much to my friends, thoughts that I was dying would not leave my head. Even the fact that my fellow shroomer was experiencing none of these problems did little to calm me. The nausea wouldn't go away, and the initial psychadelic peak was upon me. The combination of mind-fuck and nausea was terrifying as I was almost unable to tell the two apart. I kept thinking over and over how thankful I was that I had done psychadelics before and was able to partially able to tell apart the two effects, but this was no consolation.
I wanted to go outside and be taken to the hospital and have my stomach pumped (as it was such a large-scale event the school supplied an army of EMT's) but knew that I had already emptied everything out of my stomach so that would do no good. I made several more trips to the bathroom, each of which consisted of me collapsed on the floor by the toilet and the occassional vomitting. Because I was now peaking, unless I was extremely deliberate about it, my attempts to converse resulted only in mumbles and jibberish, which my shrooming friend wasn't alarmed by but my beer-nursing friend was not prepared for.
All of this was compounded by the dual factors of psychadelics' ability to make everything seem alien and the fact that I was in a room which, though I'd been to it many times, was not mine. Thus I was curled up on the floor of a room I could hardly recognizing, bringing back images from Requiem of the various drug addicts in run-down shady buildings nearing the rock-bottom of their existence.
Over a period of about 30 minutes, my state went from curling on the floor in fear to laying on the bed marred only by a slight sense of nausea and continued uneasiness. I was able to see that the worst of it was behind me, and that it was going to be better, but I coudln't tell how much better, or whether I would be able to leave the room all day.
Fortunately, after maybe another half hour I felt well enough to finally venture outside, a chance that my two friends welcomed as they were growing tired of babysitting me. As we walked up the hill past the drunken masses, the uneasiness began to subside and for the first time that day I was enjoying my trip. I was a little perturbed that I had missed the entire peak while vomitting and writhing, but I was to learn that, unlike acid, the post-peak plateau is far more interesting than the peak itself.
We spent the next at least 4 hours sitting under a tree in the quiet section of the event. You can think of it like the chill room at a club; We weren't completely removed from the envigorating energy of the drunken masses, and yet thankfully apart from it. It was here that I experienced probably the most blissful period of my life thusfar. Sitting on that hill under the tree, I felt like Buddha upon reaching enlightenment. It may have even been heightened by the fact that I had undergone such a tortuous experience not an hour earlier. We simply sat under that tree and watched the various drunk people stumble their way past us, which was especially fun because we were on a steep embankment which is difficult to maneuver sober, let alone more drunk than you have ever been before.
Another notable feature of the trip was my inability to discern negative motives in people. From time to time drunk people would come pretend to be nice in order to try and get a cigarette or just to call us losers (this was one specific occassion where a drunk couple explained that we were missing out on the fun on the other side of the slope, unless of course we were 'on acid or something'... hehe) Anyway the amazing thing was that I was simply unable to tell that anything but true bonding was going on here. Granted this would not be good all the time, but for someone as cynical as myself it was a welcome relief from brutal reality. This is also in direct contrast to the exaggerated cynicism that acid sometimes gives me.
It is also of note that this whole time (except for the couple times we lit up joints), I was only mildly 'fucked up', with minor visuals/tracers, and yet I would have it no other way. The sheer ecstasy (I use this term, and even though I've done E a few times in the past, I can say that the psychological euphoria I felt during all this felt far more real and deeper than anything E ever gave me) was so noticable that I wouldn't have it ruined with some sort of dopamine rush or reality-twisting visuals.
So what is the moral of this story? I know its cliche by now, but never underestimate the power of your subconscious when it comes to psychadelics. If your mind is suggesting you shouldn't do something (as it did when it gave me sustained and uncontrollable jitters), then you would do best to listen. This isn't saying you should become its slave, but just keep in mind that it will have a greater effect on a tripping than it does on a sober one. What got me through more than my experience with acid (which told me that my entire body wasn't being poisoned, but instead there was the nausea and the intended psychadelic peak seperately) were the friends with me, one being sober and the other showing no signs that the mushrooms themselves were tainted. Always be mindful of the setting and remember that it includes both where you are and who you're with.

title: Team Handbook - Wikimedia Security Team
---
Mission
The security organization exists to serve and guide the community and Foundation by providing security services to inform risk and to cultivate a culture of security.
Motto
We seek to secure access to and the integrity of free knowledge.
Team Ideals
As a team, we strive to hold ourselves and each other accountable for the following types of behavior:
- Integrity: For us to be successful folks have to trust us and we need to trust each other.
- Efficacy: in service and in self.
- Constructive conflict: is healthy and promotes a growth mindset. Challenging each other is a good thing and makes us all better.
- Move on: Let go of the past, forgive, forget and start new.
- Sharing: Share the knowledge you have, share your successes and your failures.
- Learning: be receptive to learning from others. Nobody knows everything.
- Healthy body, mind and team: If you are stressed out, sick or just need a break, feel free to get away from all of this! That doesn’t mean you can ignore your work forever but get out of here for a while and go for a walk, read a book, take a nap, stare at the clouds. We need you but we need you healthy, none of this work is going anywhere and we will survive while you are gone. Part of building trust is being able to be vulnerable so it’s ok to talk about it and from time to time to step away from all this.
- Reflection: What went well, what didn’t, what should I do next time?
- Teamwork: We are all in this together and the concept of teamwork extends beyond the security team. We each have a job to do here and while you may feel your approach is the best we need to respect each other and allow everyone to do their job.
- Problem Solving: Solving problems can be tricky and is usually iterative so don’t be afraid to take a 1st step. Behaviors such as being combative, strawdogging, bikeshedding, and fixed thinking do not help forward the solution. Perfect is the enemy of good.
- Practice gratitude: Be thankful. We have a great team filled with super awesome folks. Don't let negativity chart your or our path forward.

The language I use around grading is very specific, especially when I’m speaking with students. “Your grade is based on how much you learn.

China invites U.S. trade negotiators for new round of talks: WSJ
by ReutersBEIJING (Reuters) - China has invited top U.S. trade negotiators for a new round of face-to-face talks in Beijing amid continued efforts to strike at least a limited deal, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday citing unnamed sources.
The report said Chinese Vice Premier Liu He invited U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin for a meeting in Beijing, adding that Beijing hopes the round of talks can take place before next Thursday's Thanksgiving holiday in the United States.
U.S. officials have indicated they would be willing to meet in person but have not committed to a date, the report said.
However, the negotiators would be reluctant to travel for the talks unless China makes it clear it would make commitments on intellectual property protection, forced technology transfers and agricultural purchases, the report said.


Walivaa gloves wakaingiza vidole kwa sehemu zangu nyeti - Sonko troubles with EACC
by Tony MukereSonko narrates humiliation at EACC headquarters
Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko has sensationally narrated how he was humiliated and threatened by EACC detectives investigating him on claims of corruption and escaping from prison.
Sonko narrated that on two occasions he presented himself for interrogation at the Integrity Centre where he claimed he was treated like a prisoner.
He claimed that the search involved detectives wearing gloves and forcing him to unzip his pants for a thorough search.
“I presented myself at EACC and cooperated. They removed my shoes. Told me to unzip and they searched my private parts for cameras and other things. Specs, mobile phones and belts were all taken away. The second time, it was the same thing with threats and a lot of intimidation.
“I was treated like a prisoner even though I was only a suspect. By the third time, ata wao walijua enough is enough. Nliwaambia hakuna mtu ataguza sehemu zangu sa siri. Walikuwa wanavaa gloves wanaingiza vidole wakiangalia kama uko na cameras. Hizo mavidole nilizigonga mateke nikawaambia sitakubali hii ushenzi tena (I told them no one would touch my private parts. They would wear gloves and insert their fingers into your private parts looking for recording devices. I hit the inspectors’ hands and told them I would no longer tolerate their nonsense),” Sonko said during an interview with a local radio station.
He insisted that he would not be intimidated by the EACC investigation which is reported to be getting final touches.
“Kesi kwangu ni kama parte after parte. Ni kama celebration (Cases are something of a celebration for me. It is a party after party,” he added.


After a definite search of the rocky terrain, they discovered a hidden aconite covered by an ancient ammonite fossil, providing an unequivocal sign that life had indeed existed in this place long ago. [G|D]

The fundamental unit in PyTorch is the Tensor. This post will serve as an overview for how we implement Tensors in PyTorch, such that the user can interact with it from the Python shell. In particular, we want to answer four main questions:
- How does PyTorch extend the Python interpreter to define a Tensor type that can be manipulated from Python code?
- How does PyTorch wrap the C libraries that actually define the Tensor’s properties and methods?
- How does PyTorch cwrap work to generate code for Tensor methods?
- How does PyTorch’s build system take all of these components to compile and generate a workable application?
Extending the Python Interpreter
PyTorch defines a new package torch
. In this post we will consider the ._C
module. This module is known as an “extension module” - a Python module written in C. Such modules allow us to define new built-in object types (e.g. the Tensor
) and to call C/C++ functions.
The ._C
module is defined in torch/csrc/Module.cpp
. The init_C()
/ PyInit__C()
function creates the module and adds the method definitions as appropriate. This module is passed around to a number of different __init()
functions that add further objects to the module, register new types, etc.
One collection of these __init()
calls is the following:
ASSERT_TRUE(THPDoubleTensor_init(module));
ASSERT_TRUE(THPFloatTensor_init(module));
ASSERT_TRUE(THPHalfTensor_init(module));
ASSERT_TRUE(THPLongTensor_init(module));
ASSERT_TRUE(THPIntTensor_init(module));
ASSERT_TRUE(THPShortTensor_init(module));
ASSERT_TRUE(THPCharTensor_init(module));
ASSERT_TRUE(THPByteTensor_init(module));
These __init()
functions add the Tensor object for each type to the ._C
module so that they can be used in the module. Let’s learn how these methods work.
The THPTensor Type
Much like the underlying TH
and THC
libraries, PyTorch defines a “generic” Tensor which is then specialized to a number of different types. Before considering how this specialization works, let’s first consider how defining a new type in Python works, and how we create the generic THPTensor
type.
The Python runtime sees all Python objects as variables of type PyObject *
, which serves as a “base type” for all Python objects. Every Python type contains the refcount for the object, and a pointer to the object’s type object. The type object determines the properties of the type. For example, it might contain a list of methods associated with the type, and which C functions get called to implement those methods. The object also contains any fields necessary to represent its state.
The formula for defining a new type is as follows:
- Create a struct that defines what the new object will contain
- Define the type object for the type
The struct itself could be very simple. Inn Python, all floating point types are actually objects on the heap. The Python float struct is defined as:
typedef struct {
PyObject_HEAD
double ob_fval;
} PyFloatObject;
The PyObject_HEAD
is a macro that brings in the code that implements an object’s reference counting, and a pointer to the corresponding type object. So in this case, to implement a float, the only other “state” needed is the floating point value itself.
Now, let’s see the struct for our THPTensor
type:
struct THPTensor {
PyObject_HEAD
THTensor *cdata;
};
Pretty simple, right? We are just wrapping the underlying TH
tensor by storing a pointer to it.
The key part is defining the “type object” for a new type. An example definition of a type object for our Python float takes the form:
static PyTypeObject py_FloatType = {
PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT(NULL, 0)
"py.FloatObject", /* tp_name */
sizeof(PyFloatObject), /* tp_basicsize */
0, /* tp_itemsize */
0, /* tp_dealloc */
0, /* tp_print */
0, /* tp_getattr */
0, /* tp_setattr */
0, /* tp_as_async */
0, /* tp_repr */
0, /* tp_as_number */
0, /* tp_as_sequence */
0, /* tp_as_mapping */
0, /* tp_hash */
0, /* tp_call */
0, /* tp_str */
0, /* tp_getattro */
0, /* tp_setattro */
0, /* tp_as_buffer */
Py_TPFLAGS_DEFAULT, /* tp_flags */
"A floating point number", /* tp_doc */
};
The easiest way to think of a type object is as a set of fields which define the properties of the object. For example, the tp_basicsize
field is set to sizeof(PyFloatObject)
. This is so that Python knows how much memory to allocate when calling PyObject_New()
for a PyFloatObject.
The full list of fields you can set is defined in object.h
in the CPython backend:
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Include/object.h.
The type object for our THPTensor
is THPTensorType
, defined in csrc/generic/Tensor.cpp
. This object defines the name, size, mapping methods, etc. for a THPTensor
.
As an example, let’s take a look at the tp_new
function we set in the PyTypeObject
:
PyTypeObject THPTensorType = {
PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT(NULL, 0)
...
THPTensor_(pynew), /* tp_new */
};
The tp_new
function enables object creation. It is responsible for creating (as opposed to initializing) objects of that type and is equivalent to the __new__()
method at the Python level. The C implementation is a static method that is passed the type being instantiated and any arguments, and returns a newly created object.
static PyObject * THPTensor_(pynew)(PyTypeObject *type, PyObject *args, PyObject *kwargs)
{
HANDLE_TH_ERRORS
Py_ssize_t num_args = args ? PyTuple_Size(args) : 0;
THPTensorPtr self = (THPTensor *)type->tp_alloc(type, 0);
// more code below
The first thing our new function does is allocate the THPTensor
. It then runs through a series of initializations based off of the args passed to the function. For example, when creating a THPTensor
x from another THPTensor
y, we set the newly created THPTensor
’s cdata
field to be the result of calling THTensor_(newWithTensor)
with the y’s underlying TH
Tensor as an argument. Similar constructors exist for sizes, storages, NumPy arrays, and sequences.
** Note that we solely use tp_new
, and not a combination of tp_new
and tp_init
(which corresponds to the __init__()
function).
The other important thing defined in Tensor.cpp is how indexing works. PyTorch Tensors support Python’s Mapping Protocol. This allows us to do things like:
x = torch.Tensor(10).fill_(1)
y = x[3] // y == 1
x[4] = 2
// etc.
** Note that this indexing extends to Tensor with more than one dimension
We are able to use the []
-style notation by defining the three mapping methods described here.
The most important methods are THPTensor_(getValue)
and THPTensor_(setValue)
which describe how to index a Tensor, for returning a new Tensor/Scalar, or updating the values of an existing Tensor in place. Read through these implementations to better understand how PyTorch supports basic tensor indexing.
Generic Builds (Part One)
We could spend a ton of time exploring various aspects of the THPTensor
and how it relates to defining a new Python object. But we still need to see how the THPTensor_(init)()
function is translated to the THPIntTensor_init()
we used in our module initialization. How do we take our Tensor.cpp
file that defines a “generic” Tensor and use it to generate Python objects for all the permutations of types? To put it another way, Tensor.cpp
is littered with lines of code like:
return THPTensor_(New)(THTensor_(new)(LIBRARY_STATE_NOARGS));
This illustrates both cases we need to make type-specific:
- Our output code will call
THP<Type>Tensor_New(...)
in place ofTHPTensor_(New)
- Our output code will call
TH<Type>Tensor_new(...)
in place ofTHTensor_(new)
In other words, for all supported Tensor types, we need to “generate” source code that has done the above substitutions. This is part of the “build” process for PyTorch. PyTorch relies on Setuptools (https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) for building the package, and we define a setup.py
file in the top-level directory to customize the build process.
One component building an Extension module using Setuptools is to list the source files involved in the compilation. However, our csrc/generic/Tensor.cpp
file is not listed! So how does the code in this file end up being a part of the end product?
Recall that we are calling the THPTensor*
functions (such as init
) from the directory above generic
. If we take a look in this directory, there is another file Tensor.cpp
defined. The last line of this file is important:
//generic_include TH torch/csrc/generic/Tensor.cpp
Note that this Tensor.cpp
file is included in setup.py
, but it is wrapped in a call to a Python helper function called split_types
. This function takes as input a file, and looks for the “//generic_include” string in the file contents. If it is found, it generates a new output file for each Tensor type, with the following changes:
- The output file is renamed to
Tensor<Type>.cpp
- The output file is slightly modified as follows:
# Before:
//generic_include TH torch/csrc/generic/Tensor.cpp
# After:
#define TH_GENERIC_FILE "torch/src/generic/Tensor.cpp"
#include "TH/THGenerate<Type>Type.h"
Including the header file on the second line has the side effect of including the source code in Tensor.cpp
with some additional context defined. Let’s take a look at one of the headers:
#ifndef TH_GENERIC_FILE
#error "You must define TH_GENERIC_FILE before including THGenerateFloatType.h"
#endif
#define real float
#define accreal double
#define TH_CONVERT_REAL_TO_ACCREAL(_val) (accreal)(_val)
#define TH_CONVERT_ACCREAL_TO_REAL(_val) (real)(_val)
#define Real Float
#define THInf FLT_MAX
#define TH_REAL_IS_FLOAT
#line 1 TH_GENERIC_FILE
#include TH_GENERIC_FILE
#undef accreal
#undef real
#undef Real
#undef THInf
#undef TH_REAL_IS_FLOAT
#undef TH_CONVERT_REAL_TO_ACCREAL
#undef TH_CONVERT_ACCREAL_TO_REAL
#ifndef THGenerateManyTypes
#undef TH_GENERIC_FILE
#endif
What this is doing is bringing in the code from the generic Tensor.cpp
file and surrounding it with the following macro definitions. For example, we define real as a float, so any code in the generic Tensor implementation that refers to something as a real will have that real replaced with a float. In the corresponding file THGenerateIntType.h
, the same macro would replace real
with int
.
These output files are returned from split_types
and added to the list of source files, so we can see how the .cpp
code for different types is created.
There are a few things to note here: First, the split_types
function is not strictly necessary. We could wrap the code in Tensor.cpp
in a single file, repeating it for each type. The reason we split the code into separate files is to speed up compilation. Second, what we mean when we talk about the type replacement (e.g. replace real with a float) is that the C preprocessor will perform these substitutions during compilation. Merely surrounding the source code with these macros has no side effects until preprocessing.
Generic Builds (Part Two)
Now that we have source files for all the Tensor types, we need to consider how the corresponding header declarations are created, and also how the conversions from THTensor_(method)
and THPTensor_(method)
to TH<Type>Tensor_method
and THP<Type>Tensor_method
work. For example, csrc/generic/Tensor.h
has declarations like:
THP_API PyObject * THPTensor_(New)(THTensor *ptr);
We use the same strategy for generating code in the source files for the headers. In csrc/Tensor.h
, we do the following:
#include "generic/Tensor.h"
#include <TH/THGenerateAllTypes.h>
#include "generic/Tensor.h"
#include <TH/THGenerateHalfType.h>
This has the same effect, where we draw in the code from the generic header, wrapped with the same macro definitions, for each type. The only difference is that the resulting code is contained all within the same header file, as opposed to being split into multiple source files.
Lastly, we need to consider how we “convert” or “substitute” the function types. If we look in the same header file, we see a bunch of #define
statements, including:
#define THPTensor_(NAME) TH_CONCAT_4(THP,Real,Tensor_,NAME)
This macro says that any string in the source code matching the format THPTensor_(NAME)
should be replaced with THPRealTensor_NAME
, where Real is derived from whatever the symbol Real is #define
‘d to be at the time. Because our header code and source code is surrounded by macro definitions for all the types as seen above, after the preprocessor has run, the resulting code is what we would expect. The code in the TH
library defines the same macro for THTensor_(NAME)
, supporting the translation of those functions as well. In this way, we end up with header and source files with specialized code.
Module Objects and Type Methods
Now we have seen how we have wrapped TH
’s Tensor definition in THP
, and generated THP methods such as THPFloatTensor_init(...)
. Now we can explore what the above code actually does in terms of the module we are creating. The key line in THPTensor_(init)
is:
# THPTensorBaseStr, THPTensorType are also macros that are specific
# to each type
PyModule_AddObject(module, THPTensorBaseStr, (PyObject *)&THPTensorType);
This function registers our Tensor objects to the extension module, so we can use THPFloatTensor, THPIntTensor, etc. in our Python code.
Just being able to create Tensors isn’t very useful - we need to be able to call all the methods that TH
defines. A simple example shows calling the in-place zero_
method on a Tensor.
x = torch.FloatTensor(10)
x.zero_()
Let’s start by seeing how we add methods to newly defined types. One of the fields in the “type object” is tp_methods
. This field holds an array of method definitions (PyMethodDef
s) and is used to associate methods (and their underlying C/C++ implementations) with a type. Suppose we wanted to define a new method on our PyFloatObject
that replaces the value. We could implement this as follows:
static PyObject * replace(PyFloatObject *self, PyObject *args) {
double val;
if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "d", &val))
return NULL;
self->ob_fval = val;
Py_RETURN_NONE
}
This is equivalent to the Python method:
def replace(self, val):
self.ob_fval = val
It is instructive to read more about how defining methods works in CPython. In general, methods take as the first parameter the instance of the object, and optionally parameters for the positional arguments and keyword arguments. This static function is registered as a method on our float:
static PyMethodDef float_methods[] = {
{"replace", (PyCFunction)replace, METH_VARARGS,
"replace the value in the float"
},
{NULL} /* Sentinel */
}
This registers a method called replace, which is implemented by the C function of the same name. The METH_VARARGS
flag indicates that the method takes a tuple of arguments representing all the arguments to the function. This array is set to the tp_methods
field of the type object, and then we can use the replace
method on objects of that type.
We would like to be able to call all of the methods for TH
tensors on our THP
tensor equivalents. However, writing wrappers for all of the TH
methods would be time-consuming and error prone. We need a better way to do this.
PyTorch cwrap
PyTorch implements its own cwrap tool to wrap the TH
Tensor methods for use in the Python backend. We define a .cwrap
file containing a series of C method declarations in our custom YAML format. The cwrap tool takes this file and outputs .cpp
source files containing the wrapped methods in a format that is compatible with our THPTensor
Python object and the Python C extension method calling format. This tool is used to generate code to wrap not only TH
, but also CuDNN
. It is defined to be extensible.
An example YAML “declaration” for the in-place addmv_
function is as follows:
[[
name: addmv_
cname: addmv
return: self
arguments:
- THTensor* self
- arg: real beta
default: AS_REAL(1)
- THTensor* self
- arg: real alpha
default: AS_REAL(1)
- THTensor* mat
- THTensor* vec
]]
The architecture of the cwrap tool is very simple. It reads in a file, and then processes it with a series of plugins. See tools/cwrap/plugins/__init__.py
for documentation on all the ways a plugin can alter the code.
The source code generation occurs in a series of passes. First, the YAML “declaration” is parsed and processed. Then the source code is generated piece-by-piece - adding things like argument checks and extractions, defining the method header, and the actual call to the underlying library such as TH
. Finally, the cwrap tool allows for processing the entire file at a time. The resulting output for addmv_
can be explored here.
In order to interface with the CPython backend, the tool generates an array of PyMethodDef
s that can be stored or appended to the THPTensor
’s tp_methods
field.
In the specific case of wrapping Tensor methods, the build process first generates the output source file from TensorMethods.cwrap
. This source file is #include
‘d in the generic Tensor source file. This all occurs before the preprocessor does its magic. As a result, all of the method wrappers that are generated undergo the same pass as the THPTensor
code above. Thus a single generic declaration and definition is specialized for each type as well.
Putting It All Together
So far, we have shown how we extend the Python interpreter to create a new extension module, how such a module defines our new THPTensor
type, and how we can generate source code for Tensors of all types that interface with TH
. Briefly, we will touch on compilation.
Setuptools allows us to define an Extension for compilation. The entire torch._C
extension is compiled by collecting all of the source files, header files, libraries, etc. and creating a setuptools Extension
. Then setuptools handles building the extension itself. I will explore the build process more in a subsequent post.
To summarize, let’s revisit our four questions:
- How does PyTorch extend the Python interpreter to define a Tensor type that can be manipulated from Python code?
It uses CPython’s framework for extending the Python interpreter and defining new types, while taking special care to generate code for all types.
- How does PyTorch wrap the C libraries that actually define the Tensor’s properties and methods?
It does so by defining a new type, THPTensor
, that is backed by a TH
Tensor. Function calls are forwarded to this tensor via the CPython backend’s conventions.
- How does PyTorch cwrap work to generate code for Tensor methods?
It takes our custom YAML-formatted code and generates source code for each method by processing it through a series of steps using a number of plugins.
- How does PyTorch’s build system take all of these components to compile and generate a workable application?
It takes a bunch of source/header files, libraries, and compilation directives to build an extension using Setuptools.
This is just a snapshot of parts of the build system for PyTorch. There is more nuance, and detail, but I hope this serves as a gentle introduction to a lot of the components of our Tensor library.
