Hello! I found under this configuration, the internode combine will timeout: (The variable names I use here are the same as the ones used in test_internode.py)

num_sms = 48
nvl_chunk_size = 32
nvl_buffer_size = 80
rdma_chunk_size = 20
rdma_buffer_size = 128

For my experiment setup:
Two nodes, each with 8 * H20 GPU and 4 * NIC, ROCE

Could you try the config in your environment to confirm or deny this. Thanks a lot!

I am able to reproduce this issue. It seems to occur when the nvl_buffer_size is set to a small value. I will look into it and investigate further.

@Skylion007 @kzlxd Did you also use configs similar to those mentioned in the issue?
