importing nvmath beta 5 freezes system logger

[yangcal]

With nvmath-python==0.5.0, importing nvmath will initialize the system logger with default setting and kinda locks the configuration.

Reproducer:

import nvmath
import logging

# Turn on logging and set the level to DEBUG to print memory management messages.
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG, format="%(asctime)s %(levelname)-8s %(message)s", datefmt="%m-%d %H:%M:%S")

logger = logging.getLogger()
logger.info("This is an INFO message") # this will not print out

The bug is identified to come from cudss loading during import, specifically https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvmath-python/blob/main/nvmath/_utils.py#L296-L298.

The issue will be resolved in the next nvmath-python release, for a WAR, please set force=True for setting global system logger, e.g,

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG, format="%(asctime)s %(levelname)-8s %(message)s", datefmt="%m-%d %H:%M:%S", force=True)
