* Re-remove cuda v11
Revert the revert - drop v11 support requiring drivers newer than Feb 23
This reverts commit c6bcdc4223.
* Simplify layout
With only one version of the GPU libraries, we can simplify things down somewhat. (Jetsons still require special handling)
* distinct sbsa variant for linux arm64
This avoids accidentally trying to load the sbsa cuda libraries on
a jetson system which results in crashes.
* temporary prevent rocm+cuda mixed loading
This reduces the size of our Windows installer payloads by ~256M by dropping
support for nvidia drivers older than Feb 2023. Hardware support is unchanged.
Linux default bundle sizes are reduced by ~600M to 1G.
Reverts ccache installation to be done manually via curl instead of
using the dnf package manager as this has side effects of prepending
ccache's install directory to the front of the PATH
* Bump cuda and rocm versions
Update ROCm to linux:6.3 win:6.2 and CUDA v12 to 12.8.
Yum has some silent failure modes, so largely switch to dnf.
* Fix windows build script
centos-7 images have been deprecated upstream and replaced with
almalinux-8 images instead, requiring some small extra work.

* llama: wire up builtin runner
This adds a new entrypoint into the ollama CLI to run the cgo built runner.
On Mac arm64, this will have GPU support, but on all other platforms it will
be the lowest common denominator CPU build. After we fully transition
to the new Go runners more tech-debt can be removed and we can stop building
the "default" runner via make and rely on the builtin always.
* build: Make target improvements
Add a few new targets and help for building locally.
This also adjusts the runner lookup to favor local builds, then
runners relative to the executable, and finally payloads.
* Support customized CPU flags for runners
This implements a simplified custom CPU flags pattern for the runners.
When built without overrides, the runner name contains the vector flag
we check for (AVX) to ensure we don't try to run on unsupported systems
and crash. If the user builds a customized set, we omit the naming
scheme and don't check for compatibility. This avoids checking
requirements at runtime, so that logic has been removed as well. This
can be used to build GPU runners with no vector flags, or CPU/GPU
runners with additional flags (e.g. AVX512) enabled.
* Use relative paths
If the user checks out the repo in a path that contains spaces, make gets
really confused so use relative paths for everything in-repo to avoid breakage.
* Remove payloads from main binary
* install: clean up prior libraries
This removes support for v0.3.6 and older versions (before the tar bundle)
and ensures we clean up prior libraries before extracting the bundle(s).
Without this change, runners and dependent libraries could leak when we
update and lead to subtle runtime errors.
* Re-introduce the llama package
This PR brings back the llama package, making it possible to call llama.cpp and
ggml APIs from Go directly via CGo. This has a few advantages:
- C APIs can be called directly from Go without needing to use the previous
"server" REST API
- On macOS and for CPU builds on Linux and Windows, Ollama can be built without
a go generate ./... step, making it easy to get up and running to hack on
parts of Ollama that don't require fast inference
- Faster build times for AVX,AVX2,CUDA and ROCM (a full build of all runners
takes <5 min on a fast CPU)
- No git submodule making it easier to clone and build from source
This is a big PR, but much of it is vendor code except for:
- llama.go CGo bindings
- example/: a simple example of running inference
- runner/: a subprocess server designed to replace the llm/ext_server package
- Makefile an as minimal as possible Makefile to build the runner package for
different targets (cpu, avx, avx2, cuda, rocm)

* cache: Clear old KV cache entries when evicting a slot
When forking a cache entry, if no empty slots are available we
evict the least recently used one and copy over the KV entries
from the closest match. However, this copy does not overwrite
existing values but only adds new ones. Therefore, we need to
clear the old slot first.
This change fixes two issues:
- The KV cache fills up and runs out of space even though we think
we are managing it correctly
- Performance gets worse over time as we use new cache entries that
are not hot in the processor caches
* doc: explain golang objc linker warning (#6830)
* llama: gather transitive dependencies for rocm for dist packaging (#6848)
* Refine go server makefiles to be more DRY (#6924)
This breaks up the monolithic Makefile for the Go based runners into a
set of utility files as well as recursive Makefiles for the runners.
Files starting with the name "Makefile" are buildable, while files that
end with ".make" are utilities to include in other Makefiles. This
reduces the amount of nearly identical targets and helps set a pattern
for future community contributions for new GPU runner architectures.
When we are ready to switch over to the Go runners, these files should
move to the top of the repo, and we should add targets for the main CLI,
as well as a helper "install" (put all the built binaries on the local
system in a runnable state) and "dist" target (generate the various
tar/zip files for distribution) for local developer use.
* llama: don't create extraneous directories (#6988)
* llama: Exercise the new build in CI (#6989)
Wire up some basic sanity testing in CI for the Go runner. GPU runners are not covered yet.
* llama: Refine developer docs for Go server (#6842)
This enhances the documentation for development focusing on the new Go
server. After we complete the transition further doc refinements
can remove the "transition" discussion.
* runner.go: Allocate batches for all sequences during init
We should tell the model that we could have full batches for all
sequences. We already do this when we allocate the batches but it was
missed during initialization.
* llama.go: Don't return nil from Tokenize on zero length input
Potentially receiving nil in a non-error condition is surprising to
most callers - it's better to return an empty slice.
* runner.go: Remove stop tokens from cache
If the last token is EOG then we don't return this and it isn't
present in the cache (because it was never submitted to Decode).
This works well for extending the cache entry with a new sequence.
However, for multi-token stop sequences, we won't return any of the
tokens but all but the last one will be in the cache. This means
when the conversation continues the cache will contain tokens that
don't overlap with the new prompt.
This works (we will pick up the portion where there is overlap) but
it causes unnecessary cache thrashing because we will fork the original
cache entry as it is not a perfect match.
By trimming the cache to the tokens that we actually return this
issue can be avoided.
* runner.go: Simplify flushing of pending tokens
* runner.go: Update TODOs
* runner.go: Don't panic when processing sequences
If there is an error processing a sequence, we should return a
clean HTTP error back to Ollama rather than panicing. This will
make us more resilient to transient failures.
Panics can still occur during startup as there is no way to serve
requests if that fails.

* runner.go: More accurately capture timings
Currently prompt processing time doesn't capture the that it takes
to tokenize the input, only decoding time. We should capture the
full process to more accurately reflect reality. This is especially
true once we start processing images where the initial processing
can take significant time. This is also more consistent with the
existing C++ runner.
* runner.go: Support for vision models
In addition to bringing feature parity with the C++ runner, this also
incorporates several improvements:
- Cache prompting works with images, avoiding the need to re-decode
embeddings for every message in a conversation
- Parallelism is supported, avoiding the need to restrict to one
sequence at a time. (Though for now Ollama will not schedule
them while we might need to fall back to the old runner.)

* runner.go: Move Unicode checking code and add tests
* runner.go: Export external cache members
Runner and cache are in the same package so the change doesn't
affect anything but it is more internally consistent.
* runner.go: Image embedding cache
Generating embeddings from images can take significant time (on
my machine between 100ms and 8s depending on the model). Although
we already cache the result of decoding these images, the embeddings
need to be regenerated every time. This is not necessary if we get
the same image over and over again, for example, during a conversation.
This currently uses a very small cache with a very simple algorithm
but it is easy to improve as is warranted.
* llama: catch up on patches
Carry forward solar-pro and cli-unicode patches
* runner.go: Don't re-allocate memory for every batch
We can reuse memory allocated from batch to batch since batch
size is fixed. This both saves the cost of reallocation as well
keeps the cache lines hot.
This results in a roughly 1% performance improvement for token
generation with Nvidia GPUs on Linux.
* runner.go: Default to classic input cache policy
The input cache as part of the go runner implemented a cache
policy that aims to maximize hit rate in both single and multi-
user scenarios. When there is a cache hit, the response is
very fast.
However, performance is actually slower when there is an input
cache miss due to worse GPU VRAM locality. This means that
performance is generally better overall for multi-user scenarios
(better input cache hit rate, locality was relatively poor already).
But worse for single users (input cache hit rate is about the same,
locality is now worse).
This defaults the policy back to the old one to avoid a regression
but keeps the new one available through an environment variable
OLLAMA_MULTIUSER_CACHE. This is left undocumented as the goal is
to improve this in the future to get the best of both worlds
without user configuration.
For inputs that result in cache misses, on Nvidia/Linux this
change improves performance by 31% for prompt processing and
13% for token generation.
* runner.go: Increase size of response channel
Generally the CPU can easily keep up with handling reponses that
are generated but there's no reason not to let generation continue
and handle things in larger batches if needed.
* llama: Add CI to verify all vendored changes have patches (#7066)
Make sure we don't accidentally merge changes in the vendored code
that aren't also reflected in the patches.
* llama: adjust clip patch for mingw utf-16 (#7065)
* llama: adjust clip patch for mingw utf-16
* llama: ensure static linking of runtime libs
Avoid runtime dependencies on non-standard libraries
* runner.go: Enable llamafile (all platforms) and BLAS (Mac OS)
These are two features that are shown on llama.cpp's system info
that are currently different between the two runners. On my test
systems the performance difference is very small to negligible
but it is probably still good to equalize the features.
* llm: Don't add BOS/EOS for tokenize requests
This is consistent with what server.cpp currently does. It affects
things like token processing counts for embedding requests.
* runner.go: Don't cache prompts for embeddings
Our integration with server.cpp implicitly disables prompt caching
because it is not part of the JSON object being parsed, this makes
the Go runner behavior similarly.
Prompt caching has been seen to affect the results of text completions
on certain hardware. The results are not wrong either way but they
are non-deterministic. However, embeddings seem to be affected even
on hardware that does not show this behavior for completions. For
now, it is best to maintain consistency with the existing behavior.
* runner.go: Adjust debug log levels
Add system info printed at startup and quiet down noisier logging.
* llama: fix compiler flag differences (#7082)
Adjust the flags for the new Go server to more closely match the
generate flow
* llama: refine developer docs (#7121)

* Optimize container images for startup
This change adjusts how to handle runner payloads to support
container builds where we keep them extracted in the filesystem.
This makes it easier to optimize the cpu/cuda vs cpu/rocm images for
size, and should result in faster startup times for container images.
* Refactor payload logic and add buildx support for faster builds
* Move payloads around
* Review comments
* Converge to buildx based helper scripts
* Use docker buildx action for release
We're over budget for github's maximum release artifact size with rocm + 2 cuda
versions. This splits rocm back out as a discrete artifact, but keeps the layout so it can
be extracted into the same location as the main bundle.
This adjusts linux to follow a similar model to windows with a discrete archive
(zip/tgz) to cary the primary executable, and dependent libraries. Runners are
still carried as payloads inside the main binary
Darwin retain the payload model where the go binary is fully self contained.
This should resolve a number of memory leak and stability defects by allowing
us to isolate llama.cpp in a separate process and shutdown when idle, and
gracefully restart if it has problems. This also serves as a first step to be
able to run multiple copies to support multiple models concurrently.
We had started using rocky linux 8, but they've updated to GCC 10.3,
which breaks NVCC. 10.2 is compatible (or 10.4, but that's not
available from rocky linux 8 repos yet)
This refines where we extract the LLM libraries to by adding a new
OLLAMA_HOME env var, that defaults to `~/.ollama` The logic was already
idempotenent, so this should speed up startups after the first time a
new release is deployed. It also cleans up after itself.
We now build only a single ROCm version (latest major) on both windows
and linux. Given the large size of ROCms tensor files, we split the
dependency out. It's bundled into the installer on windows, and a
separate download on windows. The linux install script is now smart and
detects the presence of AMD GPUs and looks to see if rocm v6 is already
present, and if not, then downloads our dependency tar file.
For Linux discovery, we now use sysfs and check each GPU against what
ROCm supports so we can degrade to CPU gracefully instead of having
llama.cpp+rocm assert/crash on us. For Windows, we now use go's windows
dynamic library loading logic to access the amdhip64.dll APIs to query
the GPU information.
