I try to broadcast a tensor(which is a scalar in practice) from rank0 to other ranks in a machine. But i found the tensor in rank1,2,3 not equals to rank0.

Code
    if ddp.get_rank() == 0:
        model.eval()
        fit_accurary = utils.AverageMeter()
        for batch_idx, (inputs, targets) in enumerate(testLoader):
            inputs, targets = inputs.to(device), targets.to(device)
            with torch.no_grad():
                outputs = model(inputs)
            predicted = utils.accuracy(outputs, targets,topk=(1,5))
            fit_accurary.update(predicted[1], inputs.size(0))

        if fit_accurary.avg == 0:
            fit_accurary.avg = 0.01

        if fit_accurary.avg > best_honey.fitness:
            best_honey_state = copy.deepcopy(model.module.state_dict())
            best_honey.code = copy.deepcopy(honey)
            best_honey.fitness = fit_accurary.avg
        avg_acc = float(fit_accurary.avg)
    else:
        avg_acc = float(0)
    avg_acc = (torch.tensor(avg_acc, dtype=torch.float)).to(device)
    dist.broadcast(avg_acc, src=0)
    #avg_acc = utils.send_and_wait(r=0, data=[avg_acc])
    avg_acc = avg_acc.cpu().detach().numpy().item()
    print(avg_acc)
    return avg_acc
