What does this PR do?
The current reformer implementation supports caching of buckets and states, but this is not used during generation. Running a generation example in debugging mode, such as
One can see that the
past_buckets_states
passed to the attention are alwaysNone
(attransformers/src/transformers/modeling_reformer.py
Line 365 in 504ff7b
This is because the name of the past states for the reformer are neither
past_key_values
ormems
.This PR adds the name of the past states to the generation
past
allocation.Generally, it may make sense to harmonize the
past
value for all models, so that thegenerate
function generalizes betterWho can review?
