   `SGLang <https://docs.sglang.ai>`__ is a high-performance inference and
   serving engine for large language models (LLMs) and vision models. The
   ROCm-enabled `SGLang Docker image <{{ docker.docker_hub_url }}>`__
   bundles SGLang with PyTorch, optimized for AMD Instinct MI300X Series
   GPUs. It includes the following software components:

   .. list-table::
      :header-rows: 1

      * - Software component
        - Version

      {% for component_name, component_version in docker.components.items() %}
      * - {{ component_name }}
        - {{ component_version }}
      {% endfor %}

System validation
=================

Before running AI workloads, it's important to validate that your AMD hardware is configured
correctly and performing optimally.

If you have already validated your system settings, including aspects like NUMA auto-balancing, you
can skip this step. Otherwise, complete the procedures in the :ref:`System validation and
optimization <rocm-for-ai-system-optimization>` guide to properly configure your system settings
before starting training.

To test for optimal performance, consult the recommended :ref:`System health benchmarks
<rocm-for-ai-system-health-bench>`. This suite of tests will help you verify and fine-tune your
system's configuration.

.. datatemplate:yaml:: /data/how-to/rocm-for-ai/inference/sglang-benchmark-models.yaml

   {% set unified_docker = data.dockers[0] %}
   {% set model_groups = data.model_groups %}

   Pull the Docker image
   =====================

   Download the `SGLang Docker image <{{ unified_docker.docker_hub_url }}>`__.
   Use the following command to pull the Docker image from Docker Hub.

   .. code-block:: shell

      docker pull {{ unified_docker.pull_tag }}

   Benchmarking
   ============

   Once the setup is complete, choose one of the following methods to benchmark inference performance with
   `DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B <https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B>`__.

   .. _sglang-benchmark-mad:

   {% for model_group in model_groups %}
      {% for model in model_group.models %}

   .. container:: model-doc {{model.mad_tag}}

      .. tab-set::

         .. tab-item:: MAD-integrated benchmarking

            1. Clone the ROCm Model Automation and Dashboarding (`<https://github.com/ROCm/MAD>`__) repository to a local
               directory and install the required packages on the host machine.

               .. code-block:: shell

                  git clone https://github.com/ROCm/MAD
                  cd MAD
                  pip install -r requirements.txt

            2. Use this command to run the performance benchmark test on the `{{model.model}} <{{ model.url }}>`_ model
               using one GPU with the ``{{model.precision}}`` data type on the host machine.

               .. code-block:: shell

                  export MAD_SECRETS_HFTOKEN="your personal Hugging Face token to access gated models"
                  madengine run \
                      --tags {{model.mad_tag}} \
                      --keep-model-dir \
                      --live-output \
                      --timeout 28800

            MAD launches a Docker container with the name
            ``container_ci-{{model.mad_tag}}``. The latency and throughput reports of the
            model are collected in the following path: ``~/MAD/perf_DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B.csv``.

            Although the DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B is preconfigured
            to collect latency and throughput performance data, you can also change the benchmarking
            parameters. See the standalone benchmarking tab for more information.

         .. tab-item:: Standalone benchmarking

            .. rubric:: Download the Docker image and required scripts

            1. Run the SGLang benchmark script independently by starting the
               `Docker container <{{ unified_docker.docker_hub_url }}>`__
               as shown in the following snippet.

               .. code-block:: shell

                  docker pull {{ unified_docker.pull_tag }}
                  docker run -it \
                      --device=/dev/kfd \
                      --device=/dev/dri \
                      --group-add video \
                      --shm-size 16G \
                      --security-opt seccomp=unconfined \
                      --security-opt apparmor=unconfined \
                      --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE \
                      -v $(pwd):/workspace \
                      --env HUGGINGFACE_HUB_CACHE=/workspace \
                      --name test \
                      {{ unified_docker.pull_tag }}

            2. In the Docker container, clone the ROCm MAD repository and navigate to the
               benchmark scripts directory at ``~/MAD/scripts/sglang``.

               .. code-block:: shell

                  git clone https://github.com/ROCm/MAD
                  cd MAD/scripts/sglang

            3. To start the benchmark, use the following command with the appropriate options.

               .. dropdown:: Benchmark options
                  :open:

                  .. list-table::
                     :header-rows: 1
                     :align: center

                     * - Name
                       - Options
                       - Description

                     * - ``$test_option``
                       - latency
                       - Measure decoding token latency

                     * -
                       - throughput
                       - Measure token generation throughput

                     * -
                       - all
                       - Measure both throughput and latency

                     * - ``$num_gpu``
                       - 8
                       - Number of GPUs

                     * - ``$datatype``
                       - ``bfloat16``
                       - Data type

                     * - ``$dataset``
                       - random
                       - Dataset

                  The input sequence length, output sequence length, and tensor parallel (TP) are
                  already configured. You don't need to specify them with this script.

               Command:

               .. code-block:: shell

                  ./sglang_benchmark_report.sh -s $test_option -m {{model.model_repo}} -g $num_gpu -d $datatype [-a $dataset]

            .. note::

               If you encounter the following error, pass your access-authorized Hugging
               Face token to the gated models.

               .. code-block:: shell-session

                  OSError: You are trying to access a gated repo.
                  # pass your HF_TOKEN
                  export HF_TOKEN=$your_personal_hf_token

            .. rubric:: Benchmarking examples

            Here are some examples of running the benchmark with various options:

            * Latency benchmark

              Use this command to benchmark the latency of the {{model.model}} model on eight GPUs with ``{{model.precision}}`` precision.

              .. code-block:: shell

                 ./sglang_benchmark_report.sh \
                     -s latency \
                     -m {{model.model_repo}} \
                     -g 8 \
                     -d {{model.precision}}

              Find the latency report at ``./reports_{{model.precision}}/summary/{{model.model_repo.split('/', 1)[1] if '/' in model.model_repo else model.model_repo}}_latency_report.csv``.

            * Throughput benchmark

              Use this command to benchmark the throughput of the {{model.model}} model on eight GPUs with ``{{model.precision}}`` precision.

              .. code-block:: shell

                 ./sglang_benchmark_report.sh \
                     -s throughput \
                     -m {{model.model_repo}} \
                     -g 8 \
                     -d {{model.precision}} \
                     -a random

              Find the throughput report at ``./reports_{{model.precision}}/summary/{{model.model_repo.split('/', 1)[1] if '/' in model.model_repo else model.model_repo}}_throughput_report.csv``.

            .. raw:: html

               <style>
               mjx-container[jax="CHTML"][display="true"] {
                  text-align: left;
                  margin: 0;
               }
               </style>

            .. note::

               Throughput is calculated as:

               - .. math:: throughput\_tot = requests \times (\mathsf{\text{input lengths}} + \mathsf{\text{output lengths}}) / elapsed\_time

               - .. math:: throughput\_gen = requests \times \mathsf{\text{output lengths}} / elapsed\_time
      {% endfor %}
   {% endfor %}
