v1.7.0-rc1: [1.7] Remove torch.vmap (#45571)

2020-09-30T20:14:36Z

torch.vmap is a prototype feature and should not be in the stable
binary. This PR:

Removes the torch.vmap API
Removes the documentation entry for torch.vmap
Changes the vmap tests to use an internal API instead of torch.vmap.

Test Plan:

Tested locally (test_torch, test_type_hints, test_vmap), but also wait
for CI.

v1.6.0-rc5: [jit] fix tuple alias analysis (#41992)

2020-07-24T15:05:20Z

Previously when analyzing a TupleConstruct, we ignored the aliasing
information of the inputs and simply marked all elements of the returned
tuple as wildcards. But since we can fully reason about the contents of
a tuple statically, we should be able to assign them aliasing
information.

This analysis was not only incomplete but produced incorrect results,
since if a is not a wildcard, a noalias wilcard. So if we looked at
tuple(a) and reported the aliasing info as tuple(wildcard), then
tuple[0] noalias a, which is...wrong.

v1.6.0-rc2: Release GIL during DDP construction. (#40877)

2020-07-01T20:36:50Z

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: pytorch#40495

As part of debugging flaky ddp_under_dist_autograd tests, I realized
we were running into the following deadlock.

Rank 0 would go into DDP construction, hold GIL and wait for broadcast in
DDP construction.
Rank 3 is a little slower and performs an RRef fetch call before the DDP
construction.
The RRef fetch call is done on Rank 0 and tries to acquire GIL.
We now have a deadlock since Rank 0 is waiting for Rank 3 to enter the
collective and Rank 3 is waiting for Rank 0 to release GIL.
