             useful for scenarios like:

             * full model training using optimizer with master weights, where the high
               precision copies of weights are already present in the optimizer.
             * inference, where only the FP8 copies of the parameters are used.
             * LoRA-like fine-tuning, where the main parameters of the model do not change.

    .. code-block:: python

        with fp8_autocast(enabled=True):

    .. note::

        Support for FP8 in the Linear layer of Transformer Engine is currently limited to tensors
        with shapes where both dimensions are divisible by 16. In terms of the input to the full
        Transformer network, this typically requires padding sequence length to be multiple of 16.

    .. note::

        When :attr:`fp8_recipe.reduce_amax==True`, any module must not be invoked more than once
        inside a single `fp8_autocast` region. This is unsupported behavior because the amax
        reduction is handled during the exit of the `fp8_autocast` context. Calling the same
        module more than once inside an `fp8_autocast` region overrides the amax tensors
        before reduction can occur.

    Parameters
    ----------
    enabled: bool, default = `True`
             whether or not to enable fp8
    calibrating: bool, default = `False`
                 calibration mode allows collecting statistics such as amax and scale
                 data of fp8 tensors even when executing without fp8 enabled. This is
                 useful for saving an inference ready fp8 checkpoint while training
                 using a higher precision.
    fp8_recipe: recipe.DelayedScaling, default = `None`
                recipe used for FP8 training.
    fp8_group: torch._C._distributed_c10d.ProcessGroup, default = `None`
               distributed group over which amaxes for the fp8 tensors
               are reduced at the end of each training step.
