A fix was implemented to override the hardware_concurrency value in CI tests, addressing an issue where test-llama-context and test-backend-ops hung due to incorrect thread count estimation on 8-CPU runners. The solution sets default values of 8 for TEST_ARG_HARDWARE_CONCURRENCY and 4 for TEST_ARG_PARALLEL_WORKERS specifically for the cpu-x64-high-perf configuration.

The update introduces support for 3D convolution (conv_3d) on Hexagon hardware by generalizing the existing conv_2d implementation. It leverages the HMX tiled path, folds kernel dimensions into a virtual row, and uses a shared solver with an is3d flag. The host computes unfold divisors to avoid device-side division, prevents DMA queue overflow, and improves tile size selection based on VTCM usage. Additional changes include handling arbitrary positive strides, preserving load/shuffle paths for small strides, and fixing compiler warnings.

The llama.cpp release b12184 includes a fix to add a missing link to pthread and privately link Threads::Threads, addressing potential runtime issues. The release provides precompiled binaries for multiple platforms including macOS, Linux, Windows, Android, and openEuler, supporting various backends such as CUDA, Vulkan, ROCm, OpenVINO, SYCL, and Snapdragon-specific hardware. Additional UI components are also available.

The metal backend's kernel_group_norm_f32 was updated to correctly handle tensors with ne03 > 1 and non-contiguous inputs by dispatching one threadgroup per (group, i03) pair, computing per-batch statistics, clamping group element count for incomplete groups, and supporting strided access via separate strides for source and destination. The fix also restricts GROUP_NORM to f32 inputs and improves performance through specialized pipeline variants.

metal : add GGML_OP_TOP_K_MASK (#31230) * metal : add GGML_OP_TOP_K_MASK Port the fused top-k mask from the CUDA backend: a grid-stride kernel fills the output with -inf, then one threadgroup per row copies the mask values of the kept cells over it. Function constants drop the score, blocks and extra paths that a given graph does not use.

ggml-cpu : rewrite concat as one row kernel for all types (#31179) Every dst row comes from src0 or src1, or for dim 0 from the row of src0 followed by the row of src1, so a single kernel covers every type: a dense source row is one memcpy, quantized types included, and a strided source is copied element by element with the element size known at compile time. Rows are split across threads instead of i2 alone, which is often 1, and are copied in tiles of 32: for a transposed source the elements are walked in the outer loop, so the rows of a tile read neighboring addresses instead of jumping a full row stride per element. Add transposed b cases to test_concat, the layout of the delta-net conv input, and a perf case for it. **Website:** - **Attestations:** - **macOS/iOS:** - [macOS Apple Sili

CUDA: fuse FFN gate/up matmuls and GLU in MMQ with interleaved gate/up rows (#29948) * cuda: fuse FFN gate/up and GLU in MMQ with interleaved gate/up rows For prompt processing, run the gate and up matmuls of a dense FFN as one mul_mat_q launch and apply the GLU in the write-back. - The loaders take the gate weights as a second pointer and fill the weight tile with up and gate rows interleaved in chunks of 8, so each thread holds an up value and the matching gate value (rows r and r + 8 of an MMA tile). - The MMA loop is unchanged: same tile, warp layout, vec_dot and one sum[] per thread. The fused write-back computes the GLU from registers and writes half the rows. - The fused path uses the regular tiling (no stream-k) with the column tiles innermost so that neighbouring blocks share weig
