Features

  • Offer control over the memory budget allocated for the KV cache during LLM inference, with easy-to-use interface.
  • Support both prompt encoding and auto-regressive decoding.
  • Support Multi-Head Attention(MHA), Multi-Query Attention(MQA), and Grouped-Query Attention(GQA).
  • Support LLaMa, LLaMa2, and Mistral.
  • Support various stride for prompt encoding(larger stride leads to faster encoding).

Installation

First of all, clone this repo into your working directory.

git clone https://github.com/DRSY/EasyKV.git
cd EasyKV

Then import enable_fixed_kv in your Python script:

from easykv import enable_fixed_kv

Example Usage

There are two different phases in LLM generative inference, i.e., prompt encoding and auto-regressive decoding.

Prompt Encoding/Prefilling

For prefilling stage, please specify budget in the range of (0,1), e.g., 0.5, which leads to 50% savings in KV cache memory footprint.

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

# Define your model path and template in a dict MODEL_CONFIGS
model_name = 'zephyr_7b'
path = MODEL_CONFIGS[model_name]['path']
template = MODEL_CONFIGS[model_name]['template']
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(path, torch_dtype=torch.float16, device_map='auto').eval()
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(path)

# Turn on fixed KV cache mode for prefilling phase
stride=8
enable_fixed_kv(model, tokenizer, mode='encoding', stride=stride)

# Test input
article = "###\nArticle: It was the first time the Single Transferable Vote (STV) system had been used to select two members in the same ward in a by-election. The SNP topped the vote in the Leith Walk by-election, while Scottish Labour won the second seat from the Greens. The by-election was called after Deidre Brock of the SNP and Maggie Chapman of the Scottish Greens stood down. The SNP's John Lewis Ritchie topped the Leith Walk poll with 2,290 votes. He was elected at stage one in the STV process with a swing in first-preference votes of 7.6% from Labour. Labour's Marion Donaldson received 1,623 votes, ahead of Susan Jane Rae of the Scottish Greens on 1,381. Ms Donaldson was elected at stage 10 of the voting process after other preferences had been considered. The by-election was called after Ms Brock stood down when she was elected as the SNP MP for Edinburgh North and Leith in May. Ms Chapman, of the Scottish Greens, resigned from her post to concentrate on standing for the Scottish Parliament in next May's election. The turnout for the by-election was 25.1%. The SNP also held the Midlothian West seat on Midlothian Council with a swing of 6.3% from Labour. The party's Kelly Parry secured 1,540 votes, ahead of Labour's Ian Miller on 945 votes. The by-election was called after Owen Thompson was elected as SNP MP for the Midlothian constituency.\n\nSummarize the above article in 1 sentence.\n"
prompt = f"Write a SHORT summary of the following text delimited by triple backticks. Return your response which covers the key points of the text.\n```{article}```"
input_prompt = template.format(inst=prompt)

# Define eviction policy
kv_policy = 'roco'
# Define sampling parameters
gen_kwargs = dict(
    temperature=1e-9,
    top_p=1.0,
    max_new_tokens=256,
    budget=0.5,
    kv_policy=kv_policy,
    keep_attention=False, # set to True if your DRAM is not tight and you can get better performance
    eos_token_ids=[tokenizer.eos_token_id]
)
input_ids = tokenizer([input_prompt], return_tensors='pt').input_ids.to(model.device)
output = model.easykv_generate(input_ids=input_ids, generation_config=gen_kwargs)
print(f"{'='*20} {kv_policy} {'='*20}\n{output}")

Auto-regressive Decoding

For auto-regressive decoding phase, please specify budget as an integer, which represents the maximum length of KV cache, e.g, 200.

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

# Define your model path and template in a dict MODEL_CONFIGS
model_name = 'llama2_7b_chat'
path = MODEL_CONFIGS[model_name]['path']
template = MODEL_CONFIGS[model_name]['template']
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(path, torch_dtype=torch.float16, device_map='auto').eval()
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(path)

# Turn on fixed KV cache mode for decoding phase
enable_fixed_kv(model, tokenizer, mode='decoding', stride=1)

# Test input
prompt = f"What are the names of some famous actors that started their careers on Broadway?"
input_prompt = template.format(inst=prompt)
kv_policy = 'roco'
# Define sampling parameters
gen_kwargs = dict(
    temperature=1e-9,
    top_p=1.0,
    max_new_tokens=2048,
    budget=200,
    kv_policy=kv_policy,
    eos_token_ids=[tokenizer.eos_token_id]
)
input_ids = tokenizer([input_prompt], return_tensors='pt').input_ids.to(model.device)
output = model.easykv_generate(input_ids=input_ids, generation_config=gen_kwargs)
print(f"{'='*20} {kv_policy} {'='*20}\n{output}")

Auto Mode

In case both the prompt and generation are long, auto mode can help automatically handle KV cache throught the prefilling and decoding stages.

stride = 64 # stride for sliding window
kv_policy = "roco" # cache eviction policy
budget = 1024 # an integer specifying the maximum KV cache
enable_fixed_kv(model, tokenizer, mode='auto', stride=stride)
gen_kwargs = dict(
    temperature=1e-9,
    top_p=1.0,
    max_new_tokens=64,
    budget=budget, 
    kv_policy=kv_policy,
    keep_attention=False, # set to True if your DRAM is not tight and you can get better performance
    eos_token_ids=[tokenizer.eos_token_id]
)
output = model.easykv_generate(input_ids=input_ids, generation_config=gen_kwargs)

We provide examplar code for summarization in test_summarization.py. The results of full KV cache and 50%-constrained KV cache using EasyKV is shown below:

EasyKV(100.00%): The 2016 European Championship, also known as Euro 2016, will take place in France from June 10 to July 10, featuring 24 teams, including France, Spain, Germany, England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, with the tournament kicking off with France playing Romania on Friday, June 10, and the final taking place at the Stade de France in Paris on July 10.
EasyKV(50.00%): The 2016 European Championship, also known as Euro 2016, will be held in France from June 10th to July 10th, featuring 24 teams, including defending champions Spain, and will be marked by a number of changes to the rules of the game, as well as increased security measures due to the ongoing terror threat.

These are just a few examples of actors who got their start on Broadway. There are many other talented actors who have also gotten their start on the Great White Way.

Perplexity

We provide examplar code for perplexity computation in test_ppl.py. The result with LLaMa2-13B with DynamicNTK on 10000-token document(doc.txt) is shown below:

KV cache budget ratio: 50.38%(5165/10253)
EasyKV-h2o_head_std_avg-50.00% PPL: 7.47

List of Supported KV Eviction Policies:

  • random: drop kv cache of a randomly chosen position.
  • recency: similar to StreamingLLM, dropping the least recent token's kv cache.
  • h2o_head: Heavy-hitter oracle, which drops kv cache whose accumulated attention score is smallest.
  • tova: Token Omission Via Attention, which uses attention weights of the last token only.
  • roco: newly proposed eviction policy with better evivtion candidate selection and importance estimation.

Todos

  • Add auto mode so that users don't have to manually specify encoding or decoding.
  • Add LongBench evaluation.
  • Add filtering mechanism to prevent dropping KV cache of specified tokens.
