* ggml: backend-agnostic tensor parallelism
* support for GPT-OSS, Qwen 3 MoE
* partial Vulkan fix
* add support for 4/8 GPUs
* unconditional peer access
* re-use buffers + ggml contexts
* fix output pattern
* NCCL support
* GGML: HIP: add RCCL support
* Remove shfl and AllReduce from backend interface
* move allocation workaround out of ggml-alloc.c
* 2d tensor set/get support
* Fix the seg fault without NCCL
* Apply suggestion from JohannesGaessler
* support for tensor dims % n_devs != 0
* fix view_offs scaling
* arbitrary num. of GPUs/tensor split
* fix compilation
* better granularity estimate
* Support device-specific host buffer types if all underlying backends expose the same type. This allows using pinned memory instead of pageable memory for CUDA.
Fix compilation errors.
* partial Qwen 3 Next support
* Fix qwen3 30b (llama/8)
* Fix crash with Qwen-30B-A3B Q4_0
Qwen-30B-A3B Q4_0 has an intermediate dimension of 768. Using a granularity of 256 forces an uneven split between GPUs, which is not supported by the current implementation.
* Decide block size based on tensor quantization type
* Fix crashes due to KV cache serialization (llama/9)
KV cache serialization requires non-zero offsets on the tensor. Add support in the meta backend to set/get a tensor with a non-zero offset.
* metal : fix build (llama/7)
* static memory allocations, fix usage count
* fix tensor granularity
* more even memory distribution
* use BF16 for allreduce
* rebase fixup
* better error message for unsupported architectures
* Fix device mismatch during scatter of allReduce. (llama/11)
There is a mismatch between the dst buffer device and the backend device, causing the use of sync copies
* Enable the previous allreduce implementation. It is better in both perf and stability (llama/12)
* delay AllReduce for Moe for less I/O
* build : clean-up compile warnings
* backend : move most of the meta backend API to ggml-backend-impl.h
* cont : hide unused public API in the implementation
* llama : use llama_device + remove ggml_backend_dev_is_meta()
* ggml-backend : remove unused alloc include
* minor : remove regex include
* ggml : introduce ggml-ext.h for staging new APIs
* rebase fixup
* fix tests
* llama : more robust logic for determining Meta devices (llama/16)
* llama : more robust logic for determining Meta devices
* cont : fix devs size check

* rpc : add support for multiple devices
Allow rpc-server to expose multiple devices from a single endpoint.
Change RPC protocol to include device identifier where needed.
closes: #15210
* fixes
* use ggml_backend_reg_t
* address review comments
* fix llama-bench backend report
* address review comments, change device naming
* fix cmd order
* ggml-backend : add GGML_BACKEND_DEVICE_TYPE_IGPU device type
ggml-backend : add device id to device props
llama : only use iGPU devices if there are no GPU devices
llama : do not use multiple devices from different backends with the same device id
* vulkan: sort graph to allow more parallel execution
Add a backend proc to allow the backend to modify the graph. The
vulkan implementation looks at which nodes depend on each other
and greedily reorders them to group together nodes that don't
depend on each other. It only reorders the nodes, doesn't change
the contents of any of them.
With #15489, this reduces the number of synchronizations needed.
* call optimize_graph per-split
* Upgrade init_tensor API to return a ggml_status
To prepare for an 'abort-free' ggml
(ggml not to abort on OOMs but return a OOM status),
as agreeed with Diego in the ggml repo,
upgrade the init_tensor() and view_init() APIs
to return a ggml_status.
* misc fixes
