IBuilderConfig

tensorrt.BuilderFlag

Valid modes that the builder can enable when creating an engine from a network definition.

Members:

DEBUG : Enable debugging of layers via synchronizing after every layer

GPU_FALLBACK : Enable layers marked to execute on GPU if layer cannot execute on DLA

STRICT_TYPES : Enables strict type constraints

INT8 : Enable Int8 layer selection

DISABLE_TIMING_CACHE : Disable reuse of timing information across identical layers.

FP16 : Enable FP16 layer selection

REFIT : Enable building a refittable engine

TF32 : Allow (but not require) computations on tensors of type DataType.FLOAT to use TF32. TF32 computes inner products by rounding the inputs to 10-bit mantissas before multiplying, but accumulates the sum using 23-bit mantissas. Enabled by default.

class tensorrt.IBuilderConfig
Variables

  • min_timing_iterations – int The number of minimization iterations used when timing layers. When timing layers, the builder minimizes over a set of average times for layer execution. This parameter controls the number of iterations used in minimization.

  • avg_timing_iterations – int The number of averaging iterations used when timing layers. When timing layers, the builder minimizes over a set of average times for layer execution. This parameter controls the number of iterations used in averaging.

  • int8_calibrator – IInt8Calibrator Int8 Calibration interface. The calibrator is to minimize the information loss during the INT8 quantization process.

  • max_workspace_size – int The maximum workspace size. The maximum GPU temporary memory which the engine can use at execution time.

  • flags – int The build mode flags to turn on builder options for this network. The flags are listed in the BuilderFlags enum. The flags set configuration options to build the network. This should be in integer consisting of one or more BuilderFlag s, combined via binary OR. For example, 1 << BuilderFlag.FP16 | 1 << BuilderFlag.DEBUG.

  • profile_stream – int The handle for the CUDA stream that is used to profile this network.

  • num_optimization_profiles – int The number of optimization profiles.

  • default_device_type – tensorrt.DeviceType The default DeviceType to be used by the Builder.

  • DLA_core – int The DLA core that the engine executes on. Must be between 0 and N-1 where N is the number of available DLA cores.

  • profiling_verbosity – Profiling verbosity in NVTX annotations.

  • algorithm_selector – IAlgorithmSelector The algorithm slector to be set/get in the build config

__del__(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig) → None
__exit__(exc_type, exc_value, traceback)

Destroy this object, freeing all memory associated with it. This should be called to ensure that the object is cleaned up properly. Equivalent to invoking __del__()

__init__()

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

add_optimization_profile(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, profile: tensorrt.tensorrt.IOptimizationProfile) → int

Add an optimization profile.

This function must be called at least once if the network has dynamic or shape input tensors.

Parameters

profile – The new optimization profile, which must satisfy bool(profile) == True

Returns

The index of the optimization profile (starting from 0) if the input is valid, or -1 if the input is not valid.

can_run_on_DLA(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, layer: tensorrt.tensorrt.ILayer) → bool

Check if the layer can run on DLA.

Parameters

layer – The layer to check

Returns

A bool indicating whether the layer can run on DLA

clear_flag(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, flag: tensorrt.tensorrt.BuilderFlag) → None

clears the builder mode flag from the enabled flags.

Parameters

flag – The flag to clear.

clear_quantization_flag(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, flag: tensorrt.tensorrt.QuantizationFlag) → None

Clears the quantization flag from the enabled quantization flags.

Parameters

flag – The flag to clear.

get_calibration_profile(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig) → tensorrt.tensorrt.IOptimizationProfile

Get the current calibration profile.

Returns

The current calibration profile or nullptr if calibrartion profile is unset.

get_device_type(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, layer: tensorrt.tensorrt.ILayer) → tensorrt.tensorrt.DeviceType

Get the device that the layer executes on.

Parameters

layer – The layer to get the DeviceType for

Returns

The DeviceType of the layer

get_flag(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, flag: tensorrt.tensorrt.BuilderFlag) → bool

Check if a build mode flag is set.

Parameters

flag – The flag to check.

Returns

A bool indicating whether the flag is set.

get_quantization_flag(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, flag: tensorrt.tensorrt.QuantizationFlag) → bool

Check if a quantization flag is set.

Parameters

flag – The flag to check.

Returns

A bool indicating whether the flag is set.

is_device_type_set(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, layer: tensorrt.tensorrt.ILayer) → bool

Check if the DeviceType for a layer is explicitly set.

Parameters

layer – The layer to check for DeviceType

Returns

True if DeviceType is not default, False otherwise

reset(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig) → None

Resets the builder configuration to defaults. When initializing a builder config object, we can call this function.

reset_device_type(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, layer: tensorrt.tensorrt.ILayer) → None

Reset the DeviceType for the given layer.

Parameters

layer – The layer to reset the DeviceType for

set_calibration_profile(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, profile: tensorrt.tensorrt.IOptimizationProfile) → bool

Set a calibration profile.

Calibration optimization profile must be set if int8 calibration is used to set scales for a network with runtime dimensions.

Parameters

profile – The new calibration profile, which must satisfy bool(profile) == True or be nullptr. MIN and MAX values will be overwritten by kOPT.

Returns

True if the calibration profile was set correctly.

set_device_type(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, layer: tensorrt.tensorrt.ILayer, device_type: tensorrt.tensorrt.DeviceType) → None

Set the device that this layer must execute on. If DeviceType is not set or is reset, TensorRT will use the default DeviceType set in the builder.

The DeviceType for a layer must be compatible with the safety flow (if specified). For example a layer cannot be marked for DLA execution while the builder is configured for kSAFE_GPU.

Parameters

  • layer – The layer to set the DeviceType of

  • device_type – The DeviceType the layer must execute on

set_flag(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, flag: tensorrt.tensorrt.BuilderFlag) → None

Add the input builder mode flag to the already enabled flags.

Parameters

flag – The flag to set.

set_quantization_flag(self: tensorrt.tensorrt.IBuilderConfig, flag: tensorrt.tensorrt.QuantizationFlag) → None

Add the input quantization flag to the already enabled quantization flags.

Parameters

flag – The flag to set.
