# XPU

The document addresses how to set up the [SGLang](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang) environment and run LLM inference on Intel GPU, [see more context about Intel GPU support within PyTorch ecosystem](https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/stable/notes/get_start_xpu.html).

Specifically, SGLang is optimized for [Intel® Arc™ Pro B-Series Graphics](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/series/242616/intel-arc-pro-b-series-graphics.html) and [
Intel® Arc™ B-Series Graphics](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/series/240391/intel-arc-b-series-graphics.html).

## Optimized Model List

A list of LLMs have been optimized on Intel GPU, and more are on the way:

have been verified on [Intel® Arc™ B580 Graphics](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/241598/intel-arc-b580-graphics/specifications.html).

## Installation

### Install From Source

Currently SGLang XPU only supports installation from source. Please refer to ["Getting Started on Intel GPU"](https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/stable/notes/get_start_xpu.html) to install XPU dependency.

```bash Command theme={null}
# Create and activate a conda environment
conda create -n sgl-xpu python=3.12 -y
conda activate sgl-xpu

# Set PyTorch XPU as primary pip install channel to avoid installing the larger CUDA-enabled version and prevent potential runtime issues.
pip3 install torch==2.11.0+xpu torchao torchvision torchaudio==2.11.0+xpu --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/xpu
pip3 install xgrammar --no-deps # xgrammar will introduce CUDA-enabled triton which might conflict with XPU

# Clone the SGLang code
git clone https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang.git
cd sglang
git checkout <YOUR-DESIRED-VERSION>

# Use dedicated toml file
cd python
cp pyproject_xpu.toml pyproject.toml
# Install SGLang dependent libs, and build SGLang main package
pip install --upgrade pip setuptools
pip install -v . --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/xpu
```

### Install Using Docker

[The SGLang XPU Dockerfile](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang/blob/main/docker/xpu.Dockerfile) is provided to facilitate the installation.
Replace `<secret>` below with your [HuggingFace access token](https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/en/security-tokens).

```bash Command theme={null}
# Clone the SGLang repository
git clone https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang.git
cd sglang/docker

# Build the docker image
docker build -t sglang-xpu:latest -f xpu.Dockerfile .

# Initiate a docker container
docker run \
    -it \
    --privileged \
    --ipc=host \
    --network=host \
    --group-add $(getent group video | cut -d: -f3) \
    --device /dev/dri \
    -v /dev/dri/by-path:/dev/dri/by-path \
    -v /dev/shm:/dev/shm \
    -v ~/.cache/huggingface:/root/.cache/huggingface \
    -p 30000:30000 \
    -e "HF_TOKEN=<secret>" \
    sglang-xpu:latest /bin/bash
```

## Launch of the Serving Engine

Example command to launch SGLang serving:

```bash theme={null}
sglang serve                         \
    --model-path <MODEL_ID_OR_PATH>  \
    --trust-remote-code              \
    --disable-overlap-schedule       \
    --device xpu                     \
    --host 0.0.0.0                   \
    --tp 2                           \   # using multi GPUs
    --attention-backend intel_xpu    \   # using intel optimized XPU attention backend
    --page-size                      \   # intel_xpu attention backend supports [32, 64, 128]
```

## Benchmarking with Requests

You can benchmark the performance via the `bench_serving` script.
Run the command in another terminal.

```bash theme={null}
python -m sglang.bench_serving   \
    --dataset-name random        \
    --random-input-len 1024      \
    --random-output-len 1024     \
    --num-prompts 1              \
    --request-rate inf           \
    --random-range-ratio 1.0
```

The detail explanations of the parameters can be looked up by the command:

```bash theme={null}
python -m sglang.bench_serving -h
```

Additionally, the requests can be formed with
[OpenAI Completions API](../basic_usage/openai_api_completions)
and sent via the command line (e.g. using `curl`) or via your own script.
