Adds RDNA3 support to the CUDA mma FA kernel. To make the RDNA3 tensor cores work with the FP16 accumulation for VKQ the tiles they need to be 32 logical units long in direction of the attention head; for head sizes 80 and 112 that are not exactly divided by 32 the regular length of 16 with FP32 accumulation is used instead. The longer tiles also enable more efficient transposition for a warp size of 32 which is why it's also used for RDNA4. However, this scrambles the data layout of the accumulators along the attention head dimension. To prevent accidental misuse I added another entry to ggml_cuda_mma::data_layout.
I also tuned the kernel parameters for RDNA3, RDNA4, and CDNA1 in general, during which I discovered that the kernel can be made to work for head sizes up to 256 for CDNA. For RDNA3/4 I was not able to get better performance that the tile kernel for head sizes > 128.
* CUDA: manage NCCL communicators in context
* add check that all backends are CUDA
* remove unused vector, limit init to > 1 GPUs
* fix warnings
* fix cuda device, cache allreduce
* 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 (#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 (#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 (#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. (#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 (#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 (#16)
* llama : more robust logic for determining Meta devices
* cont : fix devs size check
