- Kompute-based Vulkan backend shows an GGML_OP_GET_ROWS error: This issue pertains to a problem with the Kompute-based Vulkan backend, which is causing a GGML_OP_GET_ROWS error that does not occur with other Vulkan backends. The problem has been open for a significant duration of 434 days and 19 hours, indicating a potentially complex or unresolved technical challenge.
- Question: How to generate an MPS gputrace: This issue is about a user seeking guidance on how to generate a Metal Performance Shaders (MPS) gputrace for the llama.cpp project during model inference, as part of efforts to enhance the Metal backend for a related project. The user is specifically interested in obtaining a debugger output similar to what is provided by the Metal Debugger in Xcode, and is inquiring if there is any documented or known method to achieve this.
- common: download from URL, improve parallel download progress status: This issue addresses the need to improve the progress status display for parallel downloads when retrieving sharded models, as the current implementation causes conflicts in the progression indicators. The proposed solution involves properly implementing the
CURLOPT_NOPROGRESSoption to ensure accurate and non-conflicting progress reporting during these parallel download operations. - kubernetes example: This issue is about the need for a Helm chart for the
llama.cppserver to facilitate its deployment on Kubernetes, which is a widely used platform for deploying applications at scale. The issue has been open for over 426 days, and while initial work has begun, the contributor is seeking additional help from the community to advance the project. - Eval bug: microsoft/bitnet-b1.58-2B-4T-gguf: This issue pertains to a bug encountered while attempting to load a model using the CUDA backend on a system with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, where the process fails due to a tensor type mismatch and an incorrect block size. The error occurs during the initialization of the model, specifically when trying to read tensor information from the file, resulting in the model failing to load properly.
