      ml: Panic rather than return error on tensor allocation failure · 1f371ea9
      Jesse Gross authored
      FromFloatSlice and FromIntSlice return an error if the shape doesn't
      match the passed data or if memory can't be allocated. Since these
      are inputs, the memory being allocated is system memory rather than VRAM.
      
      In many cases, the caller can't really handle the error and panics.
      
      Empty and Zeros directly panic if they can't allocate memory.
      
      This makes things consistent by panicing for the first two cases,
      removing a fair amount of error handling code. This is also consistent
      with how Go typically handles these situations.

      ollamarunner: Memory usage reporting · 73d6a82c
      Jesse Gross authored
      This provides granular information about the backend memory allocations
      required by the runner:
       - Per backend
       - Per layer
       - Weights, cache and graph
       - Allocation status
      
      This can be used for debugging and validating memory estimates.

      ggml: Report graph memory for failed allocations · 6db8a377
      Jesse Gross authored
      GGML has a function to report the allocated size of a backend buffer.
      However, this returns 0 if we tried to allocate a buffer and it failed.
      For memory management purposes, it's important to know how much we were
      trying to allocate. This extends the API to report attempted sizes for
      all buffers and whether it succeeeded.

      sched: fix runner leak during reloading unload (#10819) · d950ff12
      Daniel Hiltgen authored
      When the same model is being reloaded rapidly with client connections
      being canceled before the model finishes loading, the queued unload
      event could cause a leak of runners by deleting a different runner from
      the loaded list.

      server: improve tensor quantization fallback logic (#10806) · fbe6ae28
      Bruce MacDonald authored
      Fall back to alternative quantization types when a tensor's dimensions aren't divisible by the block size required for the original desired quantization type. If retried quantization types fail, the system ultimately falls back to F16 (half-precision floating point) which has a block size of 1 and can handle any tensor dimension.

      llm: Use first layer as memory buffer in estimation · 3fe74fba
      Jesse Gross authored
      This is a partial revert of 0478d440 "Fixed over vram allcation dure to
      small initial layer sizes."
      
      Previously we used the size of the first layer as an extra reserved
      amount of space to buffer our memory estimates. The above commit
      changed this to use the largest layer. However, this had performance
      impacts on more models than the original commit was trying to fix.
      
      There is just a heuristic without an ideal solution so this goes back
      to the historic behavior.
      
      Fixes: #10765, #10756, #10752, #10726

      ggml: Seperate tensor load from backend creation · 94ab428e
      Jesse Gross authored
      Currently, when the backend is created, the tensors are loaded at the
      same time, which is a slow operation. This separates them to be two
      steps:
       - Create backend, including enumerating tensors and memory allocation
       - Loading tensor data
      
      This allows more flexibility in managing model loading.

      llm: Estimate projector memory correctly for Ollama engine · d7555774
      Jesse Gross authored
      The Llama engine always places vision projectors on the first GPU
      if one exists. However, the Ollama engine groups it with the output
      layer, which means the projector is only offloaded if all other layers
      are offloaded. The memory estimation code always assumes the former
      layout - this changes it to use the correct layout based on the engine.
      
      This addresses two impacts of the current behavior:
       - In multi-GPU setups, we can crash with OOM errors when we try to
         allocate memory on a full GPU while another still has space.
       - If the vision projector is large, it may prevent us from offloading
         anything when we could have fit some of the text layers.

      llm: Consistently track unassigned model data · a2cc8571
      Jesse Gross authored
      In some cases, if we fail to assign a piece of the model to a GPU then
      we lose track of this data. Although it doesn't change the memory
      allocation, it does affect the total size of the model reported by
      tools such as ollama ps (and also the percent offloaded).
      
      This makes it look like setting num_gpu isn't reflected in ollama ps,
      which isn't true but the offloading percent may appear to not change.
      
      Spreading the model across more GPUs will continue to impact the
      reported total size of the model.

      readme: add TinyNotepad to community integrations (#10763) · 7edfdd2f
      Ronald Wilson authored
      This PR adds Tiny Notepad, a lightweight, notepad-like interface to chat with local LLMs via Ollama. 
      
      - It’s designed as a simple, distraction-free alternative. 
      - The app supports basic note-taking, timestamped logs, and model parameter controls. 
      - Built with Tkinter, it runs entirely offline and available via PyPI.
      
      Aims to provide a lightweight easy to run and install interface for ollama.

      ollamarunner: Multi-modal worst case graph · fe623c2c
      Jesse Gross authored
      We currently preallocate compute graph memory for the worst case
      batch of text tokens. This adds support for doing the same for
      images.
      
      Note that image models are more complicated than text models in
      how they process their inputs so there may be cases where this
      approach isn't completely generic for all models. It covers all
      currently supported models though.

      ollamarunner: Separate text and multimodal graphs · 3c14461d
      Jesse Gross authored
      For some multimodal models (such as gemma3), we create a single
      graph that generates the image embedding and then use this in the
      text model. The embedding tensor is completely opaque to the runner.
      
      However, this doesn't work if we need to use the embedding in multiple
      batches. This can arise if the embedding is larger than the batch size.
      In these cases (as with llama4), we would like to create views that
      are more appropriately sized. However, if we do this then the original
      source tensor is used in multiple graphs, which isn't allowed. To
      avoid that problem, models with this pattern compute the embedding
      tensor on first use and recreate the individual views. There is no
      longer a single vision and text graph.
      
      This codifies the pattern of separating vision and text graphs. The
      logic of computing tensors on demand is moved to the runner, so models
      no longer have to worry about this. It also gives the runner visibility
      into the multimodal tensors, which is important for memory management.

      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.
