Summary
This PR adds an assertion to prevent the backward pass of FLCE (fused linear cross-entropy loss) from being invoked when
reduction="none". This unsupported functionality was previously discussed in #968. This PR also trims some out-of-date text from an existing comment about this functionality gap, and relocates the rest of the comment from the forward pass to the site of the assertion.Testing Done
I was unable to test this PR according to the contributor guidelines. I saw numerous failures with
make testandmake test-convergence, and didn't try to debug them. Thus I am leaving this as a Draft PR.make testto ensure correctnessmake checkstyleto ensure code stylemake test-convergenceto ensure convergence
