Weekly patch release

App

Changed

• Change top folder (#18212)
• Remove _handle_is_headless calls in app run loop (#18362)

Fixed

• refactor path to root preventing circular import (#18357)

---

Fabric

Changed

• On XLA, avoid setting the global rank before processes have been launched as this will initialize the PJRT computation client in the main process (#16966)

Fixed

• Fixed model parameters getting shared between processes when running with strategy="ddp_spawn" and accelerator="cpu"; this has a necessary memory impact, as parameters are replicated for each process now (#18238)
• Removed false positive warning when using fabric.no_backward_sync with XLA strategies (#17761)
• Fixed issue where Fabric would not initialize the global rank, world size, and rank-zero-only rank after initialization and before launch (#16966)
• Fixed FSDP full-precision param_dtype training (16-mixed, bf16-mixed and 32-true configurations) to avoid FSDP assertion errors with PyTorch < 2.0 (#18278)

---

Changed

• On XLA, avoid setting the global rank before processes have been launched as this will initialize the PJRT computation client in the main process (#16966)
• Fix inefficiency in rich progress bar (#18369)

Fixed

• Fixed FSDP full-precision param_dtype training (16-mixed and bf16-mixed configurations) to avoid FSDP assertion errors with PyTorch < 2.0 (#18278)
• Fixed an issue that prevented the use of custom logger classes without an experiment property defined (#18093)
• Fixed setting the tracking uri in MLFlowLogger for logging artifacts to the MLFlow server (#18395)
• Fixed redundant iter() call to dataloader when checking dataloading configuration (#18415)
• Fixed model parameters getting shared between processes when running with strategy="ddp_spawn" and accelerator="cpu"; this has a necessary memory impact, as parameters are replicated for each process now (#18238)
