**SYCL** is a high-level parallel programming model designed to improve developers productivity writing code across various hardware accelerators such as CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs. It is a single-source language designed for heterogeneous computing and based on standard C++17.
**oneAPI** is an open ecosystem and a standard-based specification, supporting multiple architectures including but not limited to intel CPUs, GPUs and FPGAs. The key components of the oneAPI ecosystem include:
-**DPCPP***(Data Parallel C++)*: The primary oneAPI SYCL implementation, which includes the icpx/icx Compilers.
-**oneAPI Libraries**: A set of highly optimized libraries targeting multiple domains *(e.g. oneMKL - Math Kernel Library)*.
-**oneAPI LevelZero**: A high performance low level interface for fine-grained control over intel iGPUs and dGPUs.
-**Nvidia & AMD Plugins**: These are plugins extending oneAPI's DPCPP support to SYCL on Nvidia and AMD GPU targets.
### Llama.cpp + SYCL
The llama.cpp SYCL backend is designed to support **Intel GPU** firstly. Based on the cross-platform feature of SYCL, it could support other vendor GPUs: Nvidia GPU (*AMD GPU coming*).
When targeting **Intel CPU**, it is recommended to use llama.cpp for [Intel oneMKL](README.md#intel-onemkl) backend.
It has the similar design of other llama.cpp BLAS-based paths such as *OpenBLAS, cuBLAS, etc..*. In beginning work, the oneAPI's [SYCLomatic](https://github.com/oneapi-src/SYCLomatic) open-source migration tool (Commercial release [Intel® DPC++ Compatibility Tool](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/dpc-compatibility-tool.html)) was used for this purpose.
## Recommended Release
The SYCL backend would be broken by some PRs due to no online CI.
The following release is verified with good quality:
- Performance is increased: 34 -> 37 tokens/s of llama-2-7b.Q4_0 on Arc770.
- Arch Linux is verified successfully.
- 2024.4
- Support data types: GGML_TYPE_IQ4_NL, GGML_TYPE_IQ4_XS, GGML_TYPE_IQ3_XXS, GGML_TYPE_IQ3_S, GGML_TYPE_IQ2_XXS, GGML_TYPE_IQ2_XS, GGML_TYPE_IQ2_S, GGML_TYPE_IQ1_S, GGML_TYPE_IQ1_M.
- 2024.3
- Release binary files of Windows.
- A blog is published: **Run LLM on all Intel GPUs Using llama.cpp**: [intel.com](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/run-llm-on-all-gpus-using-llama-cpp-artical.html) or [medium.com](https://medium.com/@jianyu_neo/run-llm-on-all-intel-gpus-using-llama-cpp-fd2e2dcbd9bd).
- New base line is ready: [tag b2437](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/tree/b2437).
- Support multiple cards: **--split-mode**: [none|layer]; not support [row], it's on developing.
- Support to assign main GPU by **--main-gpu**, replace $GGML_SYCL_DEVICE.
- Support detecting all GPUs with level-zero and same top **Max compute units**.
| Intel Data Center Max Series | Support | Max 1550, 1100 |
| Intel Data Center Flex Series | Support | Flex 170 |
| Intel Arc Series | Support | Arc 770, 730M, Arc A750 |
| Intel built-in Arc GPU | Support | built-in Arc GPU in Meteor Lake |
| Intel iGPU | Support | iGPU in i5-1250P, i7-1260P, i7-1165G7 |
*Notes:*
-**Memory**
- The device memory is a limitation when running a large model. The loaded model size, *`llm_load_tensors: buffer_size`*, is displayed in the log when running `./bin/llama-cli`.
- Please make sure the GPU shared memory from the host is large enough to account for the model's size. For e.g. the *llama-2-7b.Q4_0* requires at least 8.0GB for integrated GPU and 4.0GB for discrete GPU.
-**Execution Unit (EU)**
- If the iGPU has less than 80 EUs, the inference speed will likely be too slow for practical use.
To build in default FP32 *(Slower than FP16 alternative)*, you can remove the `--build-arg="LLAMA_SYCL_F16=ON"` argument from the previous command.
You can also use the `.devops/llama-server-intel.Dockerfile`, which builds the *"server"* alternative.
### Run container
```sh
# First, find all the DRI cards
ls-la /dev/dri
# Then, pick the card that you want to use (here for e.g. /dev/dri/card1).
docker run -it--rm-v"$(pwd):/app:Z"--device /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128 --device /dev/dri/card1:/dev/dri/card1 llama-cpp-sycl -m"/app/models/YOUR_MODEL_FILE"-p"Building a website can be done in 10 simple steps:"-n 400 -e-ngl 33
```
*Notes:*
- Docker has been tested successfully on native Linux. WSL support has not been verified yet.
- You may need to install Intel GPU driver on the **host** machine *(Please refer to the [Linux configuration](#linux) for details)*.
## Linux
### I. Setup Environment
1.**Install GPU drivers**
-**Intel GPU**
Intel data center GPUs drivers installation guide and download page can be found here: [Get intel dGPU Drivers](https://dgpu-docs.intel.com/driver/installation.html#ubuntu-install-steps).
*Note*: for client GPUs *(iGPU & Arc A-Series)*, please refer to the [client iGPU driver installation](https://dgpu-docs.intel.com/driver/client/overview.html).
Once installed, add the user(s) to the `video` and `render` groups.
```sh
sudo usermod -aG render $USER
sudo usermod -aG video $USER
```
*Note*: logout/re-login for the changes to take effect.
In order to target Nvidia GPUs through SYCL, please make sure the CUDA/CUBLAS native requirements *-found [here](README.md#cuda)-* are installed.
2.**Install Intel® oneAPI Base toolkit**
-**For Intel GPU**
The base toolkit can be obtained from the official [Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/base-toolkit.html) page.
Please follow the instructions for downloading and installing the Toolkit for Linux, and preferably keep the default installation values unchanged, notably the installation path *(`/opt/intel/oneapi` by default)*.
Following guidelines/code snippets assume the default installation values. Otherwise, please make sure the necessary changes are reflected where applicable.
Upon a successful installation, SYCL is enabled for the available intel devices, along with relevant libraries such as oneAPI MKL for intel GPUs.
-**Adding support to Nvidia GPUs**
**oneAPI Plugin**: In order to enable SYCL support on Nvidia GPUs, please install the [Codeplay oneAPI Plugin for Nvidia GPUs](https://developer.codeplay.com/products/oneapi/nvidia/download). User should also make sure the plugin version matches the installed base toolkit one *(previous step)* for a seamless "oneAPI on Nvidia GPU" setup.
**oneMKL for cuBlas**: The current oneMKL releases *(shipped with the oneAPI base-toolkit)* do not contain the cuBLAS backend. A build from source of the upstream [oneMKL](https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneMKL) with the *cuBLAS* backend enabled is thus required to run it on Nvidia GPUs.
In order to check the available SYCL devices on the machine, please use the `sycl-ls` command.
```sh
source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh
sycl-ls
```
-**Intel GPU**
When targeting an intel GPU, the user should expect one or more level-zero devices among the available SYCL devices. Please make sure that at least one GPU is present, for instance [`ext_oneapi_level_zero:gpu:0`] in the sample output below:
You can refer to the general [*Prepare and Quantize*](README.md#prepare-and-quantize) guide for model prepration, or simply download [llama-2-7b.Q4_0.gguf](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Llama-2-7B-GGUF/blob/main/llama-2-7b.Q4_0.gguf) model as example.
2. Enable oneAPI running environment
```sh
source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh
```
3. List devices information
Similar to the native `sycl-ls`, available SYCL devices can be queried as follow:
```sh
./build/bin/llama-ls-sycl-device
```
A example of such log in a system with 1 *intel CPU* and 1 *intel GPU* can look like the following:
```
found 6 SYCL devices:
| | | |Compute |Max compute|Max work|Max sub| |
|ID| Device Type| Name|capability|units |group |group |Global mem size|
ZES_ENABLE_SYSMAN=1 ./build/bin/llama-cli -m models/llama-2-7b.Q4_0.gguf -p"Building a website can be done in 10 simple steps:"-n 400 -e-ngl 33 -sm none -mg 0
```
or run by script:
```sh
./examples/sycl/run_llama2.sh 0
```
- Use multiple devices:
```sh
ZES_ENABLE_SYSMAN=1 ./build/bin/llama-cli -m models/llama-2-7b.Q4_0.gguf -p"Building a website can be done in 10 simple steps:"-n 400 -e-ngl 33 -sm layer
```
Otherwise, you can run the script:
```sh
./examples/sycl/run_llama2.sh
```
*Notes:*
- Upon execution, verify the selected device(s) ID(s) in the output log, which can for instance be displayed as follow:
```sh
detect 1 SYCL GPUs: [0] with top Max compute units:512
```
Or
```sh
use 1 SYCL GPUs: [0] with Max compute units:512
```
## Windows
### I. Setup Environment
1. Install GPU driver
Intel GPU drivers instructions guide and download page can be found here: [Get intel GPU Drivers](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/docs/discrete-gpus/arc/software/drivers.html).
2. Install Visual Studio
If you already have a recent version of Microsoft Visual Studio, you can skip this step. Otherwise, please refer to the official download page for [Microsoft Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/).
3. Install Intel® oneAPI Base toolkit
The base toolkit can be obtained from the official [Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/base-toolkit.html) page.
Please follow the instructions for downloading and installing the Toolkit for Windows, and preferably keep the default installation values unchanged, notably the installation path *(`C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI` by default)*.
Following guidelines/code snippets assume the default installation values. Otherwise, please make sure the necessary changes are reflected where applicable.
b. Enable oneAPI running environment:
- Type "oneAPI" in the search bar, then open the `Intel oneAPI command prompt for Intel 64 for Visual Studio 2022` App.
- On the command prompt, enable the runtime environment with the following:
In the oneAPI command line, run the following to print the available SYCL devices:
```
sycl-ls
```
There should be one or more *level-zero* GPU devices displayed as **[ext_oneapi_level_zero:gpu]**. Below is example of such output detecting an *intel Iris Xe* GPU as a Level-zero SYCL device:
Otherwise, run the `win-build-sycl.bat` wrapper which encapsulates the former instructions:
```sh
.\examples\sycl\win-build-sycl.bat
```
*Notes:*
- By default, calling `make` will build all target binary files. In case of a minimal experimental setup, the user can build the inference executable only through `make llama-cli`.
### III. Run the inference
1. Retrieve and prepare model
You can refer to the general [*Prepare and Quantize*](README#prepare-and-quantize) guide for model prepration, or simply download [llama-2-7b.Q4_0.gguf](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Llama-2-7B-GGUF/blob/main/llama-2-7b.Q4_0.gguf) model as example.
2. Enable oneAPI running environment
On the oneAPI command line window, run the following and step into the llama.cpp directory:
| GGML_SYCL_DEBUG | 0 (default) or 1 | Enable log function by macro: GGML_SYCL_DEBUG |
| ZES_ENABLE_SYSMAN | 0 (default) or 1 | Support to get free memory of GPU by sycl::aspect::ext_intel_free_memory.<br>Recommended to use when --split-mode = layer |
## Known Issues
- `Split-mode:[row]` is not supported.
## Q&A
- Error: `error while loading shared libraries: libsycl.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory`.
- Potential cause: Unavailable oneAPI installation or not set ENV variables.
- Solution: Install *oneAPI base toolkit* and enable its ENV through: `source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh`.
- General compiler error:
- Remove **build** folder or try a clean-build.
- I can **not** see `[ext_oneapi_level_zero:gpu]` afer installing the GPU driver on Linux.
Please double-check with `sudo sycl-ls`.
If it's present in the list, please add video/render group to your user then **logout/login** or restart your system:
```
sudo usermod -aG render $USER
sudo usermod -aG video $USER
```
Otherwise, please double-check the GPU driver installation steps.
