* test-backend-ops : use flops for some performance tests
- parallelize tensor quantization
- use a different set of cases for performance and correctness tests
- run each test for at least one second
* threadpool: skip polling for unused threads
Currently all threads do N polling rounds even if only 1 thread is active (n_threads_cur == 1).
This commit adds a check to skip the polling for unused threads (ith >= n_threads_cur).
n_threads_cur is now an atomic_int to explicitly tell thread sanitizer that it is written
from one thread and read from other threads (not a race conditions).
* threadpool: further simplify and improve ggml_barrier
Avoid using strict memory order while polling, yet make sure that all threads go through
full memory barrier (memory fence) on ggml_barrier entrace and exit.
* threads: add simple barrier test
This test does lots of small, parallel matmul ops where the barriers in between dominate the overhead.
* threadpool: improve thread sync for new-graphs
Using the same tricks as ggml_barrier. All the polling is done with relaxed memory order
to keep it efficient, once the new graph is detected we do full fence using read-modify-write
with strict memory order.
* threadpool: improve abort handling
Do not use threadpool->ec (exit code) to decide whether to exit the compute loop.
threadpool->ec is not atomic which makes thread-sanitizer rightfully unhappy about it.
Instead introduce atomic threadpool->abort flag used for this. This is consistent with
how we handle threadpool->stop or pause.
While at it add an explicit atomic_load for n_threads_cur for consistency.
* test-barrier: release threadpool before releasing the context
fixes use-after-free detected by gcc thread-sanitizer on x86-64
for some reason llvm sanitizer is not detecting this issue.
* tests: add gradient checking to test-backend-ops
* remove old comment
* reorder includes
* adjust SIN/COS parameters
* add documentation, use supports_op if possible
* ggml_cont: fix issue with transposed tensors when one dimension is 1
when using multiple threads, it is not enough
to check for the tensors to be contiguous for
ggml_compute_forward_dup_same_cont to work correctly.
The tensors strides also need to match.

* ggml-quants : 1.625 bpw ternary packing for BitNet 1.58b
* ggml-quants : faster 1.625 bpw AVX2 vec_dot
Not using a lookup table anymore makes it match q4_0 speed.
* gguf-py : fix formatting
* llama : remove spaces on empty line
* ggml-quants : subtract 1 when back in epi8
This makes the 1.625 bpw type go faster than q4_0. Still not the fastest.
* ggml-quants : Q2_2 now faster than Q4_K on with AVX2
* ggml-quants : cleanup Q1_3 code formatting
* ggml-quants : ARM NEON vec_dot for q2_2 and q1_3
* ggml-quants : use ceiling division when quantizing q1_3
* convert-hf : simplify BitNet pre-quantization
This still results in the exact same tensor weights and scales,
but it reveals some weirdness in the current algorithm.
* convert-hf : allow converting the weird BitNet 1.3B
Its FFN size is 5460 which is not convenient.
The offending tensors are kept in F16,
which makes the final model 5.01 bpw.
* bitnet : replace 1.58b with b1.58, as in the paper
* ggml-quants : fix build failure on Windows
* ggml-quants : attempt to fix Arm 32-bit support
* ggml : add some informative comments in q1_3 vec_dot
* ggml : add TQ1_0 and TQ2_0 ternary quantization types
* ggml : even faster TQ2_0
* ggml : also faster TQ1_0
Same optimization as for TQ2_0 by offsetting the sum instead of the weights.
This makes TQ1_0 almost as fast as Q8_0 on AVX2.
* ggml : fix build issues in certain environments
* ggml : add NEON vec_dot implementation for TQ1_0 and TQ2_0
* ggml : avoid directly using vmlal_high_s8, for 32-bit ARM compat
The compiler seems smart enough to use the same instruction
even when using vget_high_s8 instead.
* ggml : remove q1_3 and q2_2
No more 1.625 bpw and 2.000 bpw,
now instead using 1.6875 bpw and 2.0625 bpw
with TQ1_0 and TQ2_0, respectively.
* llama : remove the separate scale tensors of BitNet b1.58
They won't be needed, since the remaining ternary quant types have
built-in scales.
* ggml-quants : rename fields of TQ1_0 and TQ2_0 structs for consistency
* ggml-quants : allow using vdotq_s32 in TQ2_0 vec_dot
Not yet tested on hardware which supports it,
might not work or might not even compile. But also it might.
It should make the performance better on recent ARM CPUs.
* ggml-quants : remove comment about possible format change of TQ2_0
Making it slightly more convenient for AVX512
but less convenient for everything else is not worth the trouble.
* gguf-py : Numpy (de)quantization for TQ1_0 and TQ2_0
* ggml-quants : use roundf instead of nearest_int for TQ1_0 and TQ2_0
This does not change anything for ternary models,
since their values should never end up being in halfway cases anyway.
* convert : allow direct conversion to TQ1_0 and TQ2_0
The token embeddings and output tensors are kept in F16
to allow quantizing them to Q4_K and Q6_K with llama-quantize.
* llama : handle fallback for TQ1_0 and TQ2_0 with Q4_0
Q4_0 is not completely symmetric (so not lossless for ternary models),
but it should be good enough.
* ggml-quants : allow using ARM dot product instructions for TQ1_0
* ggml-quants : deduplicate TQ1_0 and TQ2_0 __ARM_FEATURE_DOTPROD support
* ggml : remove unused ggml_mul special case
It would otherwise conflict with the more general
optimization coming with Mamba-2.
* ggml : handle TQ1_0 and TQ2_0 in dequantization-based operators
* test-backend-ops : add TQ1_0 and TQ2_0 comments for later
Not yet adding uncommented, because some backends like SYCL and Metal
do not properly handle unknown types in supports_op for GGML_OP_MUL_MAT.
(and Metal also doesn't handle it with GGML_OP_GET_ROWS)
Support for TQ1_0 and TQ2_0 for other backends than CPU
will be added in follow-up pull requests.
* Introduce ggml_compute_threadpool
- OpenMP functional: check
- Vanilla ggml functional: Check
- ggml w/threadpool functional: Check
- OpenMP no regression: No glaring problems
- Vanilla ggml no regression: No glaring problems
- ggml w/threadpool no regression: No glaring problems
* Minor fixes
* fixed use after release bug
* fixed a harmless race condition
* Fix Android bulid issue
* fix more race conditions
* fix deadlock for cases where cgraph.n_nodes == 1
and fix --poll case
* threadpool: use cpu_get_num_math to set the default number of threadpool threads
This way we avoid using E-Cores and Hyperthreaded siblings.
* bench: create fresh threadpool for each test
For benchmarking it's better to start a fresh pool for each test with the exact number of threads
needed for that test. Having larger pools is suboptimal (causes more load, etc).
* atomics: always use stdatomics with clang and use relaxed memory order when polling in ggml_barrier
This also removes sched_yield() calls from ggml_barrier() to match OpenMP behavior.
* threadpool: make polling the default to match openmp behavior
All command line args now allow for setting poll to 0 (false).
* threadpool: do not wakeup threads in already paused threadpool
* fix potential race condition in check_for_work
* threadpool: do not create two threadpools if their params are identical
* threadpool: reduce pause/resume/wakeup overhead in common cases
We now start threadpool in paused state only if we have two.
The resume is now implicit (ie new work) which allows for reduced locking and context-switch overhead.
* threadpool: add support for hybrid polling
poll params (--poll, ...) now specify "polling level", i.e. how aggresively we poll before waiting on cond.var.
poll=0 means no polling, 1 means poll for 128K rounds then wait, 2 for 256K rounds, ...
The default value of 50 (ie 50x128K rounds) seems like a decent default across modern platforms.
We can tune this further as things evolve.
* threadpool: reduce the number of barrier required
New work is now indicated with an atomic counter that is incremented for
each new graph that needs to be computed.
This removes the need for extra barrier for clearing the "new_work" and
removes the special case for trivial graphs.
* threadpool: remove special-casing for disposable threadpools
With the efficient hybrid polling there is no need to make disposable pools any different.
This simplifies the overall logic and reduces branching.
Include n_threads in debug print for disposable threadpool.
Declare pause and stop flags as atomic_bool
This doesn't actually generate any memory barriers and simply informs
the thread sanitizer that these flags can be written & read by different
threads without locking.
* threadpool: do not clear barrier counters between graphs computes (fixes race with small graphs)
This fixes the race condition with very small graphs where the main thread happens to
start a new graph while the workers are just about to exit from barriers.
* threadpool: use relaxed order for chunk sync
Full memory barrier is an overkill for this since each thread works on different chunk
* threadpool: remove abort_callback from threadpool state
* threadpool: better naming for thread/cpumask releated functions
* threadpool: consistent use of int type for n_threads params
* threadpool: add support for ggml_threadpool_params_default/init
Also removes the need for explicit mask_specified param.
all-zero cpumask means use default (usually inherited) cpu affinity mask.
* threadpool: move typedef into ggml.h
* threadpool: fix apply_priority() function name
* threadpool: fix swift wrapper errors due to n_threads int type cleanup
* threadpool: enable --cpu-mask and other threadpool related options only if threadpool is enabled
* threadpool: replace checks for compute_thread ret code with proper status check
* threadpool: simplify threadpool init logic and fix main thread affinity application
Most of the init code is now exactly the same between threadpool and openmp.
* threadpool: update threadpool resume/pause function names
* threadpool: enable openmp by default for now
* threadpool: don't forget to free workers state when omp is enabled
* threadpool: avoid updating process priority on the platforms that do not require it
On Windows we need to change overall process priority class in order to set thread priorities,
but on Linux, Mac, etc we do not need to touch the overall process settings.
* threadpool: update calling thread prio and affinity only at start/resume
This avoids extra syscalls for each graph_compute()
* llama-bench: turn threadpool params into vectors, add output headers, etc
* llama-bench: add support for cool off between tests --delay
This helps for long running tests on platforms that are thermally limited (phones, laptops, etc).
--delay (disabled by default) introduces the sleep for N seconds before starting each test.
* threadpool: move process priority setting into the apps (bench and cli)
This avoids changing the overall process priority on Windows for the apps
that use ggml/llama.cpp directy.
* threadpool: move all pause/resume logic into ggml
* threadpool: futher api cleanup and prep for future refactoring
All threadpool related functions and structs use ggml_threadpool prefix.
* threadpool: minor indent fixes
* threadpool: improve setprioty error message
* Update examples/llama-bench/llama-bench.cpp

* convert_hf : identify which user-defined tokens are control tokens
Only used in _set_vocab_gpt2() for now.

This makes Gemma and Gemma-2 tokenize pretty much EVERYTHING correctly,
including HTML tags and consecutive spaces,
but it unfortunately requires model re-conversion.
There seems to be a weird behavior of the HF tokenizer for Gemma,
which prefers to use the 16-space token over more lengthy space tokens,
while using the SentencePiece tokenizer does not do this.

This commit updates llama_grammar_init to return nullptr instead of
throwing an exception.
The motivation for this is that this function is declared inside an
extern "C" block and is intended/may be used from C code which will not
be able to handle exceptions thrown, and results in undefined behavior.
On Windows and using MSVC the following warning is currently generated:
```console

This encoding has the same number of exponent bits as float32. That

The issue is that converting bf16 to fp16 can result in information
loss. Only 13% of bf16 numbers can be precisely represented in fp16
