A `CriticalSection` object is a resource in the graph which executes subgraphs in **serial** order. A common example of a subgraph one may wish to run exclusively is the one given by the following function: ```python v = resource_variable_ops.ResourceVariable(0.0, name="v") def count(): value = v.read_value() with tf.control_dependencies([value]): with tf.control_dependencies([v.assign_add(1)]): return tf.identity(value) ``` Here, a snapshot of `v` is captured in `value`; and then `v` is updated. The snapshot value is returned. If multiple workers or threads all execute `count` in parallel, there is no guarantee that access to the variable `v` is atomic at any point within any thread's calculation of `count`. In fact, even implementing an atomic counter that guarantees that the user will see each value `0, 1, ...,` is currently impossible. The solution is to ensure any access to the underlying resource `v` is only processed through a critical section: ```python cs = CriticalSection() f1 = cs.execute(count) f2 = cs.execute(count) output = f1 + f2 session.run(output) ``` The functions `f1` and `f2` will be executed serially, and updates to `v` will be atomic. **NOTES** All resource objects, including the critical section and any captured variables of functions executed on that critical section, will be colocated to the same device (host and cpu/gpu). When using multiple critical sections on the same resources, there is no guarantee of exclusive access to those resources. This behavior is disallowed by default (but see the kwarg `exclusive_resource_access`). For example, running the same function in two separate critical sections will not ensure serial execution: ```python v = tf.compat.v1.get_variable("v", initializer=0.0, use_resource=True) def accumulate(up): x = v.read_value() with tf.control_dependencies([x]): with tf.control_dependencies([v.assign_add(up)]): return tf.identity(x) ex1 = CriticalSection().execute( accumulate, 1.0, exclusive_resource_access=False) ex2 = CriticalSection().execute( accumulate, 1.0, exclusive_resource_access=False) bad_sum = ex1 + ex2 sess.run(v.initializer) sess.run(bad_sum) # May return 0.0 ``` """ def __init__(self, name=None, shared_name=None, critical_section_def=None, import_scope=None): """Creates a critical section.""" context.ensure_initialized() if critical_section_def and name is not None: raise ValueError("critical_section_def and shared_name are " "mutually exclusive.") if critical_section_def: raise ValueError("critical_section_def is not supported.") else: self._init_from_args(name, shared_name) def _init_from_args(self, name, shared_name): # pylint: disable=invalid-name """Initialize the CriticalSection from constructor arguments.""" with ops.name_scope(name, "CriticalSection", []) as name: with ops.init_scope(): # pylint: disable=protected-access container = ops.get_default_graph()._container # pylint: enable=protected-access if shared_name is None: shared_name = name if container is None: container = "" self._handle = gen_resource_variable_ops.mutex_v2( shared_name=shared_name, container=container, name=name) # Get a uniquely identifying signature for the handle. self._signature = ( container, # If shared_name is empty, a unique CriticalSection is created. shared_name or id(self._handle), _get_device_or_colocation(self._handle)) if not context.executing_eagerly(): ops.add_to_collections(CRITICAL_SECTIONS, self) @property def name(self): return self._handle.op.name def execute(self, fn, exclusive_resource_access=True, name=None): """Execute function `fn()` inside the critical section. `fn` should not accept any arguments.
