In all cases, ghcr.io/nvidia/jax:XXX points to latest nightly build of the container for XXX. For a stable reference, use ghcr.io/nvidia/jax:XXX-YYYY-MM-DD.

In addition to the public CI, we also run internal CI tests on H100 SXM 80GB and A100 SXM 80GB.

Environment Variables

The JAX image is embedded with the following flags and environment variables for performance tuning of XLA and NCCL:

XLA Flags	Value	Explanation
`--xla_gpu_enable_latency_hiding_scheduler`	`true`	allows XLA to move communication collectives to increase overlap with compute kernels
`--xla_gpu_enable_triton_gemm`	`false`	use cuBLAS instead of Trition GeMM kernels

Environment Variable	Value	Explanation
`CUDA_DEVICE_MAX_CONNECTIONS`	`1`	use a single queue for GPU work to lower latency of stream operations; OK since XLA already orders launches
`NCCL_NVLS_ENABLE`	`0`	Disables NVLink SHARP (1). Future releases will re-enable this feature.

There are various other XLA flags users can set to improve performance. For a detailed explanation of these flags, please refer to the GPU performance doc. XLA flags can be tuned per workflow. For example, each script in contrib/gpu/scripts_gpu sets its own XLA flags.

For a list of previously used XLA flags that are no longer needed, please also refer to the GPU performance page.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

<details> <summary>`bus error` when running JAX in a docker container</summary>

Solution:

docker run -it --shm-size=1g ...

Explanation: The bus error might occur due to the size limitation of /dev/shm. You can address this by increasing the shared memory size using the --shm-size option when launching your container.

</details> <details> <summary>enroot/pyxis reports error code 404 when importing multi-arch images</summary>

Problem description:

slurmstepd: error: pyxis:     [INFO] Authentication succeeded
slurmstepd: error: pyxis:     [INFO] Fetching image manifest list
slurmstepd: error: pyxis:     [INFO] Fetching image manifest
slurmstepd: error: pyxis:     [ERROR] URL https://ghcr.io/v2/nvidia/jax/manifests/<TAG> returned error code: 404 Not Found

Solution: Upgrade enroot or apply a single-file patch as mentioned in the enroot v3.4.0 release note.

Explanation: Docker has traditionally used Docker Schema V2.2 for multi-arch manifest lists but has switched to using the Open Container Initiative (OCI) format since 20.10. Enroot added support for OCI format in version 3.4.0.
