      server: Consolidate embedding truncation in runner (#12730) · 5d347f6d
      nicole pardal authored
      Currently, checking the length of prompts for embeddings to ensure
      they fit in the context window (and possible truncation) occurs in
      two places - the Ollama server and runner. This can lead to
      inconsistencies in both the checks and reported number of tokens
      processed. Since we have to do this processing in the runner, this
      consolidates all of the logic there.

      llamarunner: Record the time for all batches during prompt processing · a8d9c264
      Jesse Gross authored
      Currently, we only record the time for the last batch when processing
      the prompt. This results in unrealistically high numbers for the
      old llama runner.

      llamarunner: update metrics · bbbc73d6
      Michael Yang authored
      this change updates how metrics are collected. until now, performance
      metrics, specifically initial input processing and subsequent generation
      durations, were collected by taking the timestamp when creating a new
      sequence, the first token generation, and completing generation. the
      processing duration is taken as first token generation sub sequence
      creation while generation is taken as completing generation sub first
      token generation.
      
      while this approach is an accurate end-to-end metric of processing and
      generation, it's not comparable to other tools which only measure the
      active, i.e. decode, duration.
      
      this change updates the metrics to only capture decode duration so it
      can be more directly compared to other tools

      Use runners for GPU discovery (#12090) · bc8909fb
      Daniel Hiltgen authored
      This revamps how we discover GPUs in the system by leveraging the Ollama
      runner.  This should eliminate inconsistency between our GPU discovery and the
      runners capabilities at runtime, particularly for cases where we try to filter
      out unsupported GPUs.  Now the runner does that implicitly based on the actual
      device list.  In some cases free VRAM reporting can be unreliable which can
      leaad to scheduling mistakes, so this also includes a patch to leverage more
      reliable VRAM reporting libraries if available.
      
      Automatic workarounds have been removed as only one GPU leveraged this, which
      is now documented. This GPU will soon fall off the support matrix with the next
      ROCm bump.
      
      Additional cleanup of the scheduler and discovery packages can be done in the
      future once we have switched on the new memory management code, and removed
      support for the llama runner.

      llm: New memory management · d5a0d8d9
      Jesse Gross authored
      This changes the memory allocation strategy from upfront estimation to
      tracking actual allocations done by the engine and reacting to that. The
      goal is avoid issues caused by both under-estimation (crashing) and
      over-estimation (low performance due to under-utilized GPUs).
      
      It is currently opt-in and can be enabled for models running on the
      Ollama engine by setting OLLAMA_NEW_ESTIMATES=1. Behavior in other
      cases is unchanged and will continue to use the existing estimates.

      * fix: Fix support for arch-specific ggml-cpu source files with new arrangement
      
      In https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/13892, all arch-specific
      implementations were split out into a nested tree structure under
      ggml-cpu/arch. This conflicts with standard CGO layout where all
      arch-specific source files are expected to live in the same directory as
      the parent go module and use suffixes based on GOOS and GOARCH. As such,
      there were really two options for getting this to work:
      
      1. Add a patch on top of the GGML sync to rearrange the files to match the
      GO layout convention
      2. Use CGO directives to conditionally include the nested source files in
      the compilation units
      
      This commit does (2) in order to minimize the set of changes needed on top
      of the upstream file layout. To get this to work, there are two key things
      needed:
      
      1. In cpu.go, #cgo directives are added to explicitly set __${GOARCH}__ in
      the preprocessor directives
      2. In arch-impls.c|cpp, use an #ifdef | #elif defined | #endif chain to
      explicitly include the .c|.cpp files for the given architecture from the
      nested directory

      ollamarunner: Base cached tokens on current prompt · 499ae731
      Jesse Gross authored
      When we restore a sequence from the cache, we split the prompt into
      the already used tokens (stored in the cache) and new tokens that
      need to be processed. Currently, the references to the used tokens
      are coming from the stored previous sequence.
      
      However, even though we know that the used tokens are semantically
      equivalent to the prefix of the prompt, tokens can contain pointers
      which are no longer valid. As a result, it is better to get the
      used tokens from the prompt, which has currently valid pointers.
      
      This doesn't currently have any impact because it isn't possible
      to reuse the pointers (which are tensors) anyways. However, it
      becomes an issue once we can.

      llm: set done reason at server level (#9830) · e53b3cbd
      Bruce MacDonald authored
      No functional change. Many different done reasons can be set at the runner
      level, so rather than obsuring them we should return them to the server
      process and let it choose what to do with the done reason. This separates
      the API concerns from the runner.

      runner: clear cache when shift is not possible (#9433) · 66b25392
      Bruce MacDonald authored
      Clear KV cache when shift operation is not supported by model.
      Added KvCacheCanShift() check to handle models that can't perform cache shifts,
      falling back to full cache clear while preserving logical token history to
      maintain expected behavior when context window fills up.

      runner: Release semaphore and improve error messages on failures · b2a46529
      Jesse Gross authored
      If we have an error after creating a new sequence but before
      finding a slot for it, we return without releasing the semaphore.
      This reduces our parallel sequences and eventually leads to deadlock.
      
      In practice this should never happen because once we have acquired
      the semaphore, we should always be able to find a slot. However, the
      code is clearly not correct.

      llm: remove internal subprocess req and resp types (#9324) · 3892c3a7
      Bruce MacDonald authored
      This commit refactors the LLM subsystem by removing internal subprocess
      request and response types. It consolidates duplicate type definitions
      across the codebase, moving them to centralized locations. The change also
      standardizes interfaces between components, simplifies the ServerStatusResp
      struct, and moves the ParseDurationMs function to a common package. This
      cleanup reduces code duplication between different runner implementations
      (llamarunner and ollamarunner).

      Runner for Ollama engine · ed443a03
      Jesse Gross authored
      This provides integration with the new Ollama engine
      (58245413 next ollama runner (#7913)) and the rest of the Ollama
      infrastructure such as the runner and Ollama server.
      
      In addition, it also builds out the KV cache infrastructure to
      support requirements of how Ollama runs models such as:
       - Parallel processing
       - Memory management for defragmentation and shifting
       - Multi-modal modals
      
      Both old and new engines continue to be supported. By default, only
      the old engine is used. To enable the new engine:
      
      Start the server with the OLLAMA_NEW_ENGINE environment variable set:
      OLLAMA_NEW_ENGINE=1 ./ollama serve
      
      Start a model that is supported by the Ollama engine. This one is Llama 3.1 8b Q4_K_M:
      ./ollama run jessegross/llama3.1
