ggml-quants : ternary packing for TriLMs and BitNet b1.58 (#8151)
* 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.

gguf

This is a Python package for writing binary files in the GGUF (GGML Universal File) format.

See convert_hf_to_gguf.py as an example for its usage.

Installation

pip install gguf

API Examples/Simple Tools

examples/writer.py — Generates example.gguf in the current directory to demonstrate generating a GGUF file. Note that this file cannot be used as a model.

scripts/gguf_dump.py — Dumps a GGUF file's metadata to the console.

scripts/gguf_set_metadata.py — Allows changing simple metadata values in a GGUF file by key.

scripts/gguf_convert_endian.py — Allows converting the endianness of GGUF files.

scripts/gguf_new_metadata.py — Copies a GGUF file with added/modified/removed metadata values.

Development

Maintainers who participate in development of this package are advised to install it in editable mode:

cd /path/to/llama.cpp/gguf-py

pip install --editable .

Note: This may require to upgrade your Pip installation, with a message saying that editable installation currently requires setup.py. In this case, upgrade Pip to the latest:

pip install --upgrade pip

Automatic publishing with CI

There's a GitHub workflow to make a release automatically upon creation of tags in a specified format.

  1. Bump the version in pyproject.toml.
  2. Create a tag named gguf-vx.x.x where x.x.x is the semantic version number.
git tag -a gguf-v1.0.0 -m "Version 1.0 release"
  1. Push the tags.
git push origin --tags

Manual publishing

If you want to publish the package manually for any reason, you need to have twine and build installed:

pip install build twine

Then, follow these steps to release a new version:

  1. Bump the version in pyproject.toml.
  2. Build the package:
python -m build
  1. Upload the generated distribution archives:
python -m twine upload dist/*

Run Unit Tests

From root of this repository you can run this command to run all the unit tests

python -m unittest discover ./gguf-py -v

TODO

  • Include conversion scripts as command line entry points in this package.
