    Context object to wrap forward and backward passes when using
    distributed autograd. The ``context_id`` generated in the ``with``
    statement  is required to uniquely identify a distributed backward pass
    on all workers. Each worker stores metadata associated with this
    ``context_id``, which is required to correctly execute a distributed
    autograd pass.

    Example::
        >>> import torch.distributed.autograd as dist_autograd
        >>> with dist_autograd.context() as context_id:
        >>>   t1 = torch.rand((3, 3), requires_grad=True)
        >>>   t2 = torch.rand((3, 3), requires_grad=True)
        >>>   loss = rpc.rpc_sync("worker1", torch.add, args=(t1, t2)).sum()
