* Multi-column on Intel XMX matrix engines refactored Multi-column (2 to 80 activation columns) mul_mat_vec_q for reordered K-quant and Q8_0 weights on the Intel XMX matrix engines (int8 DPAS, ESIMD), for the SYCL backend. It targets speculative decoding verification (2 to 8 tokens per step) and short prompt batches (9 to 80 tokens). Three types also use it for a single column (Q2_K, Q3_K, Q8_0). * Fixed regression bug real bug found: the first version produced NaN whenever the row count wasn't a multiple of 4 * Removed GGML_TYPE_Q8_0 activation * rewritten xmx_mul_mat 64-byte alignment and 16-byte pitch check on the activations * Implemented fused gate/up kernel One launch computes up * act(gate) for both FFN weights, reading the activations once and applying SWIGLU or GEGLU in the epilogue. It covers up to 16 columns and works for all six XMX types. * Removed the temporary XMX_NOGLU environment switch * Q2_K min-sum optimization Q2_K weight is d·scl·q − dmin·mc, where scl (the 4-bit scale) and mc (the 4-bit min code) apply to each half of a 32-weight group * Added dispatch check and GRF sweep tg128 on Q4_K_M goes from 26.67 to 28.23 tok/s on the B70 (+5.9%). Q6_K is unchanged. MUL_MAT passes 1727/1727 and MUL_MAT_VEC_FUSION 1361/1361. Perplexity at batch 1 is 5.2064 with XMX and 5.2058 without. * Renamed variables * Added 2 environment variables GGML_SYCL_XMX_MAX_COLS (default 80, any value 0 or higher) and GGML_SYCL_XMX_GLU_MAX_COLS (default 16, range 0 to 16): the largest batch for the fused gate/up kernel. It is clamped to 16 because that is the most the fused kernel is compiled for, so the variable can only lower it. * Update esimd.hpp 1. All five quant structs were repeating the same boilerplate, so I moved it into shared pieces. 2. A new helper xmx_term does one DPAS, converts it to float and scales it per row. The four branches are now one or two lines each, and the shared Cb += z * d8r is written once. The refactor passes all three op tests. MUL_MAT_VEC_FUSION is 1369/1369, MUL_MAT is 2281/2281 (the count includes your uncommitted f32 tests) and MUL_MAT_ID is 937/937.

Description
The main goal of llama.cpp is to enable LLM (and VLM) inference with minimal setup and state-of-the-art performance on
a wide range of hardware - locally and in the cloud.
- Plain C/C++ implementation without any dependencies
- Apple silicon is a first-class citizen - optimized via ARM NEON, Accelerate and Metal frameworks
- AVX, AVX2, AVX512 and AMX support for x86 architectures
- RVV, ZVFH, ZFH, ZICBOP and ZIHINTPAUSE support for RISC-V architectures
- 1.5-bit, 2-bit, 3-bit, 4-bit, 5-bit, 6-bit, and 8-bit integer quantization for faster inference and reduced memory use
- Custom CUDA kernels for running LLMs on NVIDIA GPUs (support for AMD GPUs via HIP and Moore Threads GPUs via MUSA)
- Vulkan and SYCL backend support
- CPU+GPU hybrid inference to partially accelerate models larger than the total VRAM capacity
The llama.cpp project is build on top of the ggml library.
