Still not complete, needs some refinement to our prediction to understand the
discrete GPUs available space so we can see how many layers fit in each one
since we can't split one layer across multiple GPUs we can't treat free space
as one logical block
Trying to live off the land for cuda libraries was not the right strategy. We need to use the version we compiled against to ensure things work properly
This moves all the env var reading into one central module
and logs the loaded config once at startup which should
help in troubleshooting user server logs
This change adds support for multiple concurrent requests, as well as
loading multiple models by spawning multiple runners. The default
settings are currently set at 1 concurrent request per model and only 1
loaded model at a time, but these can be adjusted by setting
OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL and OLLAMA_MAX_LOADED_MODELS.
Leaving the cudart library loaded kept ~30m of memory
pinned in the GPU in the main process. This change ensures
we don't hold GPU resources when idle.
This refines where we extract the LLM libraries to by adding a new
OLLAMA_HOME env var, that defaults to `~/.ollama` The logic was already
idempotenent, so this should speed up startups after the first time a
new release is deployed. It also cleans up after itself.
We now build only a single ROCm version (latest major) on both windows
and linux. Given the large size of ROCms tensor files, we split the
dependency out. It's bundled into the installer on windows, and a
separate download on windows. The linux install script is now smart and
detects the presence of AMD GPUs and looks to see if rocm v6 is already
present, and if not, then downloads our dependency tar file.
For Linux discovery, we now use sysfs and check each GPU against what
ROCm supports so we can degrade to CPU gracefully instead of having
llama.cpp+rocm assert/crash on us. For Windows, we now use go's windows
dynamic library loading logic to access the amdhip64.dll APIs to query
the GPU information.
This wires up some new logic to start using sysfs to discover AMD GPU
information and detects old cards we can't yet support so we can fallback to CPU mode.
At least with the ROCm libraries, its possible to have the library
present with zero GPUs. This fix avoids a divide by zero bug in llm.go
when we try to calculate GPU memory with zero GPUs.
We build the GPU libraries with AVX enabled to ensure that if not all
layers fit on the GPU we get better performance in a mixed mode.
If the user is using a virtualization/emulation system that lacks AVX
this used to result in an illegal instruction error and crash before this
fix. Now we will report a warning in the server log, and just use
CPU mode to ensure we don't crash.
Fix an ordering glitch of dlerr/dlclose and add more logging to help
root cause some crashes users are hitting. This also refines the
function pointer names to use the underlying function names instead
of simplified names for readability.
This adds additional calls to both CUDA and ROCm management libraries to
discover additional attributes about the GPU(s) detected in the system, and
wires up runtime verbosity selection. When users hit problems with GPUs we can
ask them to run with `OLLAMA_DEBUG=1 ollama serve` and share the results.
Update gpu.go initGPUHandles() to declare gpuHandles variable before
reading it. This resolves an "invalid memory address or nil pointer
dereference" error.
Update dyn_ext_server.c to avoid setting the RTLD_DEEPBIND flag under
__TERMUX__ (Android).
This reduces the built-in linux version to not use any vector extensions
which enables the resulting builds to run under Rosetta on MacOS in
Docker. Then at runtime it checks for the actual CPU vector
extensions and loads the best CPU library available
In some cases we may want multiple variants for a given GPU type or CPU.
This adds logic to have an optional Variant which we can use to select
an optimal library, but also allows us to try multiple variants in case
some fail to load.
This can be useful for scenarios such as ROCm v5 vs v6 incompatibility
or potentially CPU features.
