Turn the trace artifacts a run leaves behind into TraceLens operator, kernel, roofline, and collective reports, and add on-demand torch.profiler capture so PyTorch workloads can produce those traces without editing the model script.

Analysis runs in either of two places. On the host, madengine report tracelens keeps TraceLens' pinned protobuf and xprof out of workload images entirely. In-container, the tracelens tool installs into an isolated virtualenv for the same reason. SLURM and Kubernetes collection now gather torch_profiler_output/ and tracelens_output/ per node.

The scripts/ and *.json ignore rules are anchored to the repo root: unanchored they also matched packaged source, which silently excluded the five runtime scripts these tool definitions depend on.

Pull request overview

Integrates TraceLens-based trace analysis into madengine, providing both host-side reporting (madengine report tracelens / tracelens-compare) and in-container tooling to capture PyTorch Kineto traces on-demand (dynolog) and generate TraceLens reports. This fits into the reporting + tools pipeline by turning collected profiler artifacts into actionable operator/kernel/roofline/collective outputs and ensuring distributed collectors gather the needed directories.

Changes:

  • Add a stdlib-only TraceLens analyzer script plus a host-side wrapper module and new report CLI commands (tracelens, tracelens-compare).
  • Add in-container tools (torch_profiler_dynolog, tracelens and mode-specific variants) with supporting pre/post scripts and TraceLens-venv isolation.
  • Extend SLURM/Kubernetes artifact collection, add examples/docs, and add unit/integration/e2e coverage.
