# All below private APIs are for making rpc torch script call that can be
# serialized, deserialized and exectued in C++ without GIL.
# These APIs will be binded to JIT and can be called in torch script
# function/class/module in the future. But since JIT does not support torch
# script function to be a jit type yet, the future binded APIs can only accept
# qualified_name of the function as arg, that is why these APIs are made
# to be private and different from above public rpc APIs.
# Because JIT does not support torch script function to be a jit type, right now
# these APIs can only accept torch script call to only be user annotated
# torchscript function, they do not accept annotated torchscript class name or
# script module class name or their class method name right now.

def _rpc_sync_torchscript(to, qualified_name, args=None, kwargs=None):
    r"""
    Make a blocking RPC call to run TorchScript function ``func`` on worker ``to``.
    RPC messages are sent and received in parallel to execution of Python code. This
    method is thread-safe.

    Arguments:
        to (str): name of the destination worker.
        qualified_name (str): qualifited name of python function annotated with
                              @torch.jit.script
                              (like ``moduleName::torchScriptFuncName``)
                              can be sent over RPC more efficiently.
        args (tuple): the argument tuple for the ``func`` invocation.
        kwargs (dict): is a dictionary of keyword arguments for the ``func``
                       invocation.

    Returns:
        Returns the result of running ``func`` on ``args`` and ``kwargs``.

    Example::
        Make sure that ``MASTER_ADDRESS`` and ``MASTER_PORT`` are set properly
        on both workers. Refer to :meth:`~torch.distributed.init_process_group`
        API for more details. For example,

        >>> export MASTER_ADDRESS=localhost
        >>> export MASTER_port=5678

        Then run the following code in two different processes:

        >>> # On worker 0:
        >>> @torch.jit.script
        >>> def my_script_add(t1, t2):

    Make a non-blocking RPC call to run TorchScript function ``func`` on worker ``to``.
    RPC messages are sent and received in parallel to execution of Python code. This
