multiprocessing in dataset map "can only test a child process"

Using a dataset with a single 'text' field and a fast tokenizer in a jupyter notebook.

``` 
def tokenizer_fn(example):
    return tokenizer.batch_encode_plus(example['text'])

ds_tokenized = text_dataset.map(tokenizer_fn, batched=True, num_proc=6, remove_columns=['text'])
```


```

It looks like an issue with wandb/tqdm here.
We're using the `multiprocess` library instead of the `multiprocessing` builtin python package to support various types of mapping functions. Maybe there's some sort of incompatibility.

Could you make a minimal script to reproduce or a google colab ?

It looks like this warning : 
"Truncation was not explicitly activated but max_length is provided a specific value, "
is not handled well by wandb.

The error occurs when calling the tokenizer.
Maybe you can try to specify `truncation=True` when calling the tokenizer to remove the warning ?
Otherwise I don't know why wandb would fail on a warning. Maybe one of its logging handlers have some issues with the logging of tokenizers. Maybe @n1t0 knows more about this ?

I'm having a similar issue but when I try to do multiprocessing with the `DataLoader`

Code to reproduce:

```
from datasets import load_dataset

book_corpus = load_dataset('bookcorpus', 'plain_text', cache_dir='/home/ad/Desktop/bookcorpus', split='train[:1%]')
book_corpus = book_corpus.map(encode, batched=True, num_proc=20, load_from_cache_file=True, batch_size=5000)
book_corpus.set_format(type='torch', columns=['text', "input_ids", "attention_mask", "token_type_ids"])

from transformers import DataCollatorForWholeWordMask
from transformers import Trainer, TrainingArguments

data_collator = DataCollatorForWholeWordMask(
    tokenizer=tokenizer, mlm=True, mlm_probability=0.15)

training_args = TrainingArguments(
    output_dir="./mobile_linear_att_8L_128_128_03layerdrop_shared",
    overwrite_output_dir=True,
    num_train_epochs=1,
    per_device_train_batch_size=64,
    save_steps=50,
    save_total_limit=2,
    logging_first_step=True,
    warmup_steps=100,
    logging_steps=50,
    gradient_accumulation_steps=1,
    fp16=True,
    **dataloader_num_workers=10**,
)

trainer = Trainer(
    model=model,
    args=training_args,
    data_collator=data_collator,
    train_dataset=book_corpus,
    tokenizer=tokenizer)

trainer.train()
```

```

As a workaround I have commented line 456 and 457 in `/home/ad/anaconda3/envs/tfm/lib/python3.6/site-packages/wandb/sdk/interface/interface.py`

Isn't it more the pytorch warning on the use of non-writable memory for tensor that trigger this here @lhoestq? (since it seems to be a warning triggered in `torch.tensor()`

Yep this time this is a warning from pytorch that causes wandb to not work properly.
Could this by a wandb issue ?

Hi @timothyjlaurent @gaceladri 
If you're running `transformers` from `master` you can try setting the env var `WAND_DISABLE=true` (from https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/9896) and try again ?
This issue might be related to https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/9623 

I have commented the lines that cause my code break. I'm now seeing my reports on Wandb and my code does not break. I am training now, so I will check probably in 6 hours. I suppose that setting wandb disable will work as well.

This seems to be a bug in `wandb` (see https://github.com/wandb/wandb/issues/1994).
