Stack from ghstack (oldest at bottom):

Admittedly I'm a noob when looking at traces, but this looked pretty off to me:

  1. Why are there so many "nccl:coalesced" on the CPU thread
  2. Why is there "nccl:coalesced" on compute stream (stream 7)

Here is what is happening:

CPU side: In endCoalescing, we create a work object with the profiling title "nccl:coalesced"
GPU side: The CUDA kernels will inherit this profiling title

What is missing:

We forgot to call the record function callback. With this change we finishs immediately on the CPU side, but the ncclDevKernel_SendRecv still have the coalesced title. New trace looks like this:
