* CANN: fix RoPE cache issue on multi-device
RoPE cache only needs to be computed once per token.
However, in multi-device scenarios, not every device starts
computation from layer 0, which may lead to unallocated memory
issues and precision errors.
This commit records the first layer of each device to avoid
the above issues.
* CANN: Optimize first-layer detection method
* CANN: Remove trailing whitespace
* CANN: Only cache the data that can be determined as unchanged through the parameters.
* CANN: Update function comment
Submit operators using asynchronous threads to improve performance.
Use the environment variable GGML_CANN_ASYNC_MODE to control whether
asynchronous submission is enabled. It is disabled by default.
Testing shows a 10%–20% performance improvement in scenarios with
small parameter sizes, especially in quantized models.
* [CANN] Add Ascend NPU backend
Ascend is a full-stack AI computing infrastructure for industry
applications and services based on Huawei Ascend processors and
software.
CANN (Compute Architecture of Neural Networks), developped by
Huawei, is a heterogeneous computing architecture for AI.
