输入数据PipeLine
pytorch 的数据加载到模型的操作顺序是这样的：
①创建一个 Dataset 对象
②创建一个 DataLoader 对象
③循环这个 DataLoader 对象，将img, label加载到模型中进行训练
dataset = MyDataset()
dataloader = DataLoader(dataset)
num_epoches = 100
for epoch in range(num_epoches):
for img, label in dataloader:
....
所以，作为直接对数据进入模型中的关键一步， DataLoader非常重要。
首先简单介绍一下DataLoader，它是PyTorch中数据读取的一个重要接口，该接口定义在dataloader.py中，只要是用PyTorch来训练模型基本都会用到该接口（除非用户重写…），该接口的目的：将自定义的Dataset根据batch size大小、是否shuffle等封装成一个Batch Size大小的Tensor，用于后面的训练。
DataLoader的官方说明是：
“数据加载由数据集和采样器组成，基于python的单、多进程的iterators来处理数据。”
关于iterator和iterable的区别和概念若有兴趣请自行查阅，在实现中的差别就是iterators有__iter__和__next__方法，而iterable只有__iter__方法。
1.DataLoader源码剖析
在分析源码之前，先介绍一下DataLoader(object)的参数：
- dataset(Dataset): 传入的数据集
- batch_size(int, optional): 每个batch有多少个样本
- shuffle(bool, optional): 在每个epoch开始的时候，对数据进行重新排序
- sampler(Sampler, optional): 自定义从数据集中取样本的策略，如果指定这个参数，那么shuffle必须为False
- batch_sampler(Sampler, optional): 与sampler类似，但是一次只返回一个batch的indices（索引），需要注意的是，一旦指定了这个参数，那么batch_size,shuffle,sampler,drop_last就不能再制定了（互斥——Mutually exclusive）
- num_workers (int, optional): 这个参数决定了有几个进程来处理data loading。0意味着所有的数据都会被load进主进程。（默认为0）
- collate_fn (callable, optional): 将一个list的sample组成一个mini-batch的函数
- pin_memory (bool, optional)： 如果设置为True，那么data loader将会在返回它们之前，将tensors拷贝到CUDA中的固定内存（CUDA pinned memory）中.
- drop_last (bool, optional): 如果设置为True：这个是对最后的未完成的batch来说的，比如你的batch_size设置为64，而一个epoch只有100个样本，那么训练的时候后面的36个就被扔掉了…如果为False（默认），那么会继续正常执行，只是最后的batch_size会小一点。
- timeout(numeric, optional): 如果是正数，表明等待从worker进程中收集一个batch等待的时间，若超出设定的时间还没有收集到，那就不收集这个内容了。这个numeric应总是大于等于0。默认为0
- worker_init_fn (callable, optional): 每个worker初始化函数 If not None, this will be called on each worker subprocess with the worker id (an int in [0, num_workers - 1]) as input, after seeding and before data loading. (default: None)
显然，根据上面参数的解释，DataLoader这个类就是进行数据的初始化的操作，好了，下面来看源码吧：
class DataLoader(object):
__initialized = False
def __init__(self, dataset, batch_size=1, shuffle=False, sampler=None,
batch_sampler=None, num_workers=0, collate_fn=default_collate,
pin_memory=False, drop_last=False, timeout=0,
worker_init_fn=None):
self.dataset = dataset
self.batch_size = batch_size
self.num_workers = num_workers
self.collate_fn = collate_fn
self.pin_memory = pin_memory
self.drop_last = drop_last
self.timeout = timeout
self.worker_init_fn = worker_init_fn
if timeout < 0:
raise ValueError('timeout option should be non-negative')
if batch_sampler is not None:
if batch_size > 1 or shuffle or sampler is not None or drop_last:
raise ValueError('batch_sampler option is mutually exclusive '
'with batch_size, shuffle, sampler, and '
'drop_last')
self.batch_size = None
self.drop_last = None
if sampler is not None and shuffle:
raise ValueError('sampler option is mutually exclusive with '
'shuffle')
if self.num_workers < 0:
raise ValueError('num_workers option cannot be negative; '
'use num_workers=0 to disable multiprocessing.')
if batch_sampler is None:
if sampler is None:
if shuffle:
sampler = RandomSampler(dataset)
else:
sampler = SequentialSampler(dataset)
batch_sampler = BatchSampler(sampler, batch_size, drop_last)
self.sampler = sampler
self.batch_sampler = batch_sampler
self.__initialized = True
def __setattr__(self, attr, val):
if self.__initialized and attr in ('batch_size', 'sampler', 'drop_last'):
raise ValueError('{} attribute should not be set after {} is '
'initialized'.format(attr, self.__class__.__name__))
super(DataLoader, self).__setattr__(attr, val)
def __iter__(self):
return _DataLoaderIter(self)
def __len__(self):
return len(self.batch_sampler)
这里主要看__init__()和__iter__()：
①数据的shuffle和batch处理
- RandomSampler(dataset)
- SequentialSampler(dataset)
- BatchSampler(sampler, batch_size, drop_last)
②因为DataLoader只有__iter__()而没有实现__next__()，所以DataLoader是一个iterable而不是iterator。这个iterator的实现在_DataLoaderIter中。
1.1DataLoader之RandomSampler(dataset)、 SequentialSampler(dataset)
实现是在dataloader.py的同级目录下的torch/utils/data/sampler.py。sampler.py中实现了一个父类Sampler，以及SequentialSampler，RandomSampler和BatchSampler等五个继承Sampler的子类。对每个采样器，都需要提供__iter__方法用以表示数据遍历的方式和__len__方法用以返回数据的长度。
class Sampler(object):
r"""Base class for all Samplers.
Every Sampler subclass has to provide an __iter__ method, providing a way
to iterate over indices of dataset elements, and a __len__ method that
returns the length of the returned iterators.
"""
def __init__(self, data_source):
pass
def __iter__(self):
raise NotImplementedError
def __len__(self):
raise NotImplementedError
class SequentialSampler(Sampler):
r"""Samples elements sequentially, always in the same order.
Arguments:
data_source (Dataset): dataset to sample from
"""
def __init__(self, data_source):
self.data_source = data_source
def __iter__(self):
return iter(range(len(self.data_source)))
def __len__(self):
return len(self.data_source)
class RandomSampler(Sampler):
r"""Samples elements randomly, without replacement.
Arguments:
data_source (Dataset): dataset to sample from
"""
def __init__(self, data_source):
self.data_source = data_source
def __iter__(self):
return iter(torch.randperm(len(self.data_source)).tolist())
def __len__(self):
return len(self.data_source)
if __name__ == "__main__":
print(list(RandomSampler(range(10))))
#[2, 8, 3, 5, 9, 4, 6, 0, 1, 7]
print(list(SequentialSampler(range(10))))
#[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
可以看出RandomSampler等方法返回的就是DataSet中的索引位置(indices)，其中，在子类中的__iter__方法中，需要返回的是iter(xxx)（即iterator）的形式：
#### 以下两个代码是等价的
for data in dataloader:
...
#### 等价与
iters = iter(dataloader)
while 1:
try:
next(iters)
except StopIteration:
break
1.2 DataLoader之BatchSampler(Sampler)
BatchSampler是wrap一个sampler，并生成mini-batch的索引(indices)的方式
这里主要看__iter__方法，可以看到，代码的思路很清楚明白的展示了batch indices的是如何取出的.
class BatchSampler(Sampler):
r"""Wraps another sampler to yield a mini-batch of indices.
Args:
sampler (Sampler): Base sampler.
batch_size (int): Size of mini-batch.
drop_last (bool): If ``True``, the sampler will drop the last batch if
its size would be less than ``batch_size``
Example:
>>> list(BatchSampler(SequentialSampler(range(10)), batch_size=3, drop_last=False))
[[0, 1, 2], [3, 4, 5], [6, 7, 8], [9]]
>>> list(BatchSampler(SequentialSampler(range(10)), batch_size=3, drop_last=True))
[[0, 1, 2], [3, 4, 5], [6, 7, 8]]
"""
def __init__(self, sampler, batch_size, drop_last):
if not isinstance(sampler, Sampler):
raise ValueError("sampler should be an instance of "
"torch.utils.data.Sampler, but got sampler={}"
.format(sampler))
if not isinstance(batch_size, _int_classes) or isinstance(batch_size, bool) or
batch_size <= 0:
raise ValueError("batch_size should be a positive integeral value, "
"but got batch_size={}".format(batch_size))
if not isinstance(drop_last, bool):
raise ValueError("drop_last should be a boolean value, but got "
"drop_last={}".format(drop_last))
self.sampler = sampler
self.batch_size = batch_size
self.drop_last = drop_last
def __iter__(self):
batch = []
# 一旦达到batch_size的长度，说明batch被填满，就可以yield出去了
for idx in self.sampler:
batch.append(idx)
if len(batch) == self.batch_size:
yield batch
batch = []
if len(batch) > 0 and not self.drop_last:
yield batch
def __len__(self):
# 比如epoch有100个样本，batch_size选择为64，那么drop_last的结果为1，不drop_last的结果为2
if self.drop_last:
return len(self.sampler) // self.batch_size
else:
return (len(self.sampler) + self.batch_size - 1) // self.batch_size
if __name__ == "__main__":
print(list(BatchSampler(SequentialSampler(range(10)), batch_size=3, drop_last=False)))
# [[0, 1, 2], [3, 4, 5], [6, 7, 8], [9]]
print(list(BatchSampler(SequentialSampler(range(10)), batch_size=3, drop_last=True)))
# [[0, 1, 2], [3, 4, 5], [6, 7, 8]]
1.3 _DataLoaderIter
_DataLoaderIter其实就是DataLoader类的__iter__()方法的返回值：
class _DataLoaderIter(object):
r"""Iterates once over the DataLoader's dataset, as specified by the sampler"""
# NOTE [ Data Loader Multiprocessing Shutdown Logic ]
#
# Preliminary:
#
# Our data model looks like this (queues are indicated with curly brackets):
#
# main process ||
# | ||
# {index_queue} ||
# | ||
# worker processes || DATA
# | ||
# {worker_result_queue} || FLOW
# | ||
# pin_memory_thread of main process || DIRECTION
# | ||
# {data_queue} ||
# | ||
# data output /
#
# P.S. `worker_result_queue` and `pin_memory_thread` part may be omitted if
# `pin_memory=False`.
#
#
# Terminating multiprocessing logic requires very careful design. In
# particular, we need to make sure that
#
# 1. The iterator gracefully exits the workers when its last reference is
# gone or it is depleted.
#
# In this case, the workers should be gracefully exited because the
# main process may still need to continue to run, and we want cleaning
# up code in the workers to be executed (e.g., releasing GPU memory).
# Naturally, we implement the shutdown logic in `__del__` of
# DataLoaderIterator.
#
# We delay the discussion on the logic in this case until later.
#
# 2. The iterator exits the workers when the loader process and/or worker
# processes exits normally or with error.
#
# We set all workers and `pin_memory_thread` to have `daemon=True`.
#
# You may ask, why can't we make the workers non-daemonic, and
# gracefully exit using the same logic as we have in `__del__` when the
# iterator gets deleted (see 1 above)?
#
# First of all, `__del__` is **not** guaranteed to be called when
# interpreter exits. Even if it is called, by the time it executes,
# many Python core library resources may alreay be freed, and even
# simple things like acquiring an internal lock of a queue may hang.
# Therefore, in this case, we actually need to prevent `__del__` from
# being executed, and rely on the automatic termination of daemonic
# children. Thus, we register an `atexit` hook that sets a global flag
# `_utils.python_exit_status`. Since `atexit` hooks are executed in the
# reverse order of registration, we are guaranteed that this flag is
# set before library resources we use are freed. (Hooks freeing those
# resources are registered at importing the Python core libraries at
# the top of this file.) So in `__del__`, we check if
# `_utils.python_exit_status` is set or `None` (freed), and perform
# no-op if so.
#
# Another problem with `__del__` is also related to the library cleanup
# calls. When a process ends, it shuts the all its daemonic children
# down with a SIGTERM (instead of joining them without a timeout).
# Simiarly for threads, but by a different mechanism. This fact,
# together with a few implementation details of multiprocessing, forces
# us to make workers daemonic. All of our problems arise when a
# DataLoader is used in a subprocess, and are caused by multiprocessing
# code which looks more or less like this:
#
# try:
# your_function_using_a_dataloader()
# finally:
# multiprocessing.util._exit_function()
#
# The joining/termination mentioned above happens inside
# `_exit_function()`. Now, if `your_function_using_a_dataloader()`
# throws, the stack trace stored in the exception will prevent the
# frame which uses `DataLoaderIter` to be freed. If the frame has any
# reference to the `DataLoaderIter` (e.g., in a method of the iter),
# its `__del__`, which starts the shutdown procedure, will not be
# called. That, in turn, means that workers aren't notified. Attempting
# to join in `_exit_function` will then result in a hang.
#
# For context, `_exit_function` is also registered as an `atexit` call.
# So it is unclear to me (@ssnl) why this is needed in a finally block.
# The code dates back to 2008 and there is no comment on the original
# PEP 371 or patch https://bugs.python.org/issue3050 (containing both
# the finally block and the `atexit` registration) that explains this.
#
# Another choice is to just shutdown workers with logic in 1 above
# whenever we see an error in `next`. This isn't ideal because
# a. It prevents users from using try-catch to resume data loading.
# b. It doesn't prevent hanging if users have references to the
# iterator.
#
# 3. All processes exit if any of them die unexpectedly by fatal signals.
#
# As shown above, the workers are set as daemonic children of the main
# process. However, automatic cleaning-up of such child processes only
# happens if the parent process exits gracefully (e.g., not via fatal
# signals like SIGKILL). So we must ensure that each process will exit
# even the process that should send/receive data to/from it were
# killed, i.e.,
#
# a. A process won't hang when getting from a queue.
#
# Even with carefully designed data dependencies (i.e., a `put()`
# always corresponding to a `get()`), hanging on `get()` can still
# happen when data in queue is corrupted (e.g., due to
# `cancel_join_thread` or unexpected exit).
#
# For child exit, we set a timeout whenever we try to get data
# from `data_queue`, and check the workers' status on each timeout
# and error.
# See `_DataLoaderiter._get_batch()` and
# `_DataLoaderiter._try_get_batch()` for details.
#
# Additionally, for child exit on non-Windows platforms, we also
# register a SIGCHLD handler (which is supported on Windows) on
# the main process, which checks if any of the workers fail in the
# (Python) handler. This is more efficient and faster in detecting
# worker failures, compared to only using the above mechanism.
# See `DataLoader.cpp` and `_utils/signal_handling.py` for details.
#
# For `.get()` calls where the sender(s) is not the workers, we
# guard them with timeouts, and check the status of the sender
# when timeout happens:
# + in the workers, the `_utils.worker.ManagerWatchdog` class
# checks the status of the main process.
# + if `pin_memory=True`, when getting from `pin_memory_thread`,
# check `pin_memory_thread` status periodically until `.get()`
# returns or see that `pin_memory_thread` died.
#
# b. A process won't hang when putting into a queue;
#
# We use `mp.Queue` which has a separate background thread to put
# objects from an unbounded buffer array. The background thread is
# daemonic and usually automatically joined when the process
# exits.
#
# However, in case that the receiver has ended abruptly while
# reading from the pipe, the join will hang forever. Therefore,
# for both `worker_result_queue` (worker -> main process/pin_memory_thread)
# and each `index_queue` (main process -> worker), we use
# `q.cancel_join_thread()` in sender process before any `q.put` to
# prevent this automatic join.
#
# Moreover, having all queues called `cancel_join_thread` makes
# implementing graceful shutdown logic in `__del__` much easier.
# It won't need to get from any queue, which would also need to be
# guarded by periodic status checks.
#
# Note that this may leave corrupted data in the queue, but we
# don't care about the data anyways once we are shutting down.
#
#
# Now let's get back to 1:
# how we gracefully exit the workers when the last reference to the
# iterator is gone.
#
# To achieve this, we implement the following logic along with the design
# choices mentioned above:
#
# [worker processes]
# While loader process is alive:
# Get from index_queue.
# If got a `None`, exit.
# If get anything else,
# Check `done_event`.
# If set, continue to next iteration
# i.e., keep getting until see the `None`, then exit.
# Otherwise, process data.
# If timed out,
# No matter `done_event` is set (still need to see `None`) or not,
# must continue to next iteration .
#
# [pin_memory_thread]
# # No need to check main thread. If this thread is alive, the main loader
# # thread must be alive, because this thread is set as daemonic.
# While True:
# Get from index_queue.
# If got a `None`, exit.
# If get anything else,
# Check `done_event`.
# If set, continue to next iteration
# i.e., keep getting until see the `None`, then exit.
# Otherwise, process data.
#
# NOTE: we don't check the status of the main thread because
# 1. if the process is killed by fatal signal, `pin_memory_thread`
# ends.
# 2. in other cases, either the cleaning-up in __del__ or the
# automatic exit of daemonic thread will take care of it.
# This won't busy-wait either because `.get(timeout)` does not
# busy-wait.
#
# [main process]
# In the DataLoader Iter's `__del__`
# a. Set `done_event` (shared with `pin_memory_thread` and workers).
#
# Note: from here on, the workers & `pin_memory_thread` may exit at
# any time after they receive `None`.
#
# b. Exit `pin_memory_thread`
# i. Put `None` in `worker_result_queue`.
# ii. Join the `pin_memory_thread`.
#
# c. Exit the workers.
# i. Put `None` in each worker's `index_queue`.
# ii. Join the workers.
#
# NOTE: This has to be after (b) because it may leave corrupted data
# in `worker_result_queue`, which `pin_memory_thread` reads
# from.
#
# NOTE: If `pin_memory=False`, there is no `pin_memory_thread` and (b)
# can be omitted
#
# NB: `done_event`s isn't strictly needed. E.g., we can just check for
# `None` from `index_queue`, but it allows us to skip wasting resources
# processing indices already in `index_queue` if we are already shutting
# down.

# error detection mechanism here in this function, as it
# doesn't provide a SIGCHLD handler.

self.index_queue = multiprocessing.SimpleQueue()中的multiprocessing是Python中的多进程管理包，而threading则是Python中的多线程管理包，二者很大一部分的接口用法类似。
__init__函数中，前面部分都是一些赋值操作，比较特殊的是self.sample_iter = iter(self.batch_sampler)，得到的self.sample_iter可以通过next(self.sample_iter)来获取batch size个数据的index。self.rcvd_idx表示读取到的一个batch数据的index，初始化为0，该值在迭代读取数据的时候会用到。if self.num_workers语句是针对多进程或单进程的情况进行初始化，如果不是设置为多进程读取数据，那么就不需要这些初始化操作，后面会介绍单进程数据读取。在if语句中通过multiprocessing.SimpleQueue()类创建了一个简单的队列对象。multiprocessing.Process类就是构造进程的类，这里根据设定的进程数来启动，然后赋值给self.workers。接下来的一个for循环就通过调用start方法依次启动self.workers中的进程。接下来关于self.pin_memory的判断语句，该判断语句内部主要是实现了多线程操作。self.pin_memory的含义在前面已经介绍过了，当为True的时候，就会把数据拷到CUDA中。self.data_queue = queue.Queue()是通过Python的queue模块初始化得到一个先进先出的队列（queue模块也可以初始化得到先进后出的队列，需要用queue.LifoQueue()初始化），queue模块主要应用在多线程读取数据中。在threading.Thread的args参数中，第一个参数in_data就是一个进程的数据，一个进程中不同线程的数据也是通过队列来维护的，这里采用的是Python的queue模块来初始化得到一个队列：queue.Queue()。初始化结束后，就会调用__next__方法。
总的来说，如果设置为多进程读取数据，那么就会采用队列的方式来读，如果不是采用多进程来读取数据，那就采用普通方式来读。
