remove MatMul f32 special case (smaller code),
types: Add u32/u64 for use by Activations
move renamed ParallelismStrategy to threading_context so can pass ctx
ensure worker index is unique across clusters
matmul.h: const member functions for renamed policy classes (easier to call)
PiperOrigin-RevId: 802848086
Add a special case for A=F32,B=BF16, used when there is no native bf16 dot product.
dot-inl: ensure bf16,f32 and f32,bf16 both get promoted to float before f64 summation
matmul.cc: update autotuning to reflect actual A size
matmul_test: add all combinations of bf16/f32, report all results, not just first difference, check non-vector-aligned K
PiperOrigin-RevId: 800487817
Optimizations
- Better load-balancing in attention threading
(Previously, clusters were limited by #heads)
- Add MulByConstTo to avoid zero-init
- Parallel activations
Cleanup
- Prepare for RowPtr in A or B
- Pass through thread_id to ops
- Avoid warning in bench_matmul
PiperOrigin-RevId: 773723423
BF16 att_sums and ffw_out
Support BF16 B views without decompression
Support arbitrary types in MulByConstAndAdd, AddFrom
Also update profiler annotations in ops-inl.h
PiperOrigin-RevId: 766995010
Precompute row pointers.
Remove no longer used MHA support; QStride -> qkv_dim.
Remove RowPtr from MatMul interface, use only MatPtrT.
Require opt-in define for NUQ to speed up builds.
Also fix io.cc on Windows.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 766228108
Only the weights; binding MatMul output worsens batch=1 prefill.
Update gemma_batch_bench to use --decode_qbatch.
Fix/remove prefill_activations in gemma-inl.h.
Refactor:
use BasePageBytes directly when binding
Move BindB/C to .cc by de-templatizing
Remove MatOwners::AllocateFor because it is weights-specific (binding or not)
Disband MatOwners, replace with vector
PiperOrigin-RevId: 759610477
Remove kOnlyAllocate - no longer used. Rename ReadOrAllocate -> ReadFromBlobs.
Rename Reshape -> Fixup to reflect the new scope.
Remove no longer used ShrinkRows.
This simplifies gemma-inl and is a prerequisite for removing ConstMat
(whose .ofs was previously used for merged tensors)
PiperOrigin-RevId: 758214083
KVCache: add ctor required for MatStorageT, remove Create; bf_pre_ffw_rms_out -> pre_ffw_rms_out
optimize_test: larger vocab_size requires more steps
shared.h: Remove unused u128 type
correctly set Activation matrix rows, avoid passing as arg
ops: pass Mat instead of pointers/sizes; vectorize LayerNorm; support any weight type
mat: add OverrideRows, used by SetBatchSize
PiperOrigin-RevId: 757790736
Weight handling:
- new ModelStore2 supports both pre-2025 multi-file and single-file formats
- simpler ForEachTensor with TensorArgs
- tensors are constructed with their full suffixed name
I/O:
- support mmap and stride
- Simplified SbsWriter, single insert(); add SbsReader
Misc:
- kMockTokenizer: allow creating with unavailable tokenizer
- configs.h: Simpler enum validity checks via kSentinel
- matmul.h: remove unused enable_bind (now in allocator.h)
- tensor_info: single TensorInfoRegistry class, rename from tensor_index.h
Frontends:
- Replace Allocate/CreateGemma with ctor(LoaderArgs, MatMulEnv&)
- Deduce model/weight type, remove --model and parsing
- Replace most common.h includes with configs.h
- Remove --compressed_weights, use --weights instead
- Remove ModelInfo, replaced by ModelConfig.
Backprop:
- Reduce max loss, remove backward_scalar_test (timeout)
- Update thresholds because new RandInit changes rng eval order and thus numerics
PiperOrigin-RevId: 755317484
- Shorten backprop tests to prevent timeout
- Add line number of failing test
- matmul: remove unused enable_bind
- allocator: we will retain enable_bind there
- mat: disable cyclic padding optimization (broken)
PiperOrigin-RevId: 752656068
use new ThreadingContext2 instead of monostate/init in each frontend
Add ThreadingArgs(replaces AppArgs)
backprop: use Packed() accessor and MakePacked factory and row-based access to allow for stride
compress_weights: remove, moving to py-only exporter instead
Move MatPtr to mat.h and revise interface:
- Generic MatOwner
- rename accessors to Packed*
- support stride/row accessors, fix RowPtr stride
Add TypeBits(Type)
Move GenerateMat to test_util-inl for sharing between matmul test/bench
Move internal init to gemma.cc to avoid duplication
Rename GemmaEnv model_ to gemma_ for disambiguating vs upcoming ModelStorage
Remove --compressed_weights, use --weights instead.
tensor_index: add ExtentsFromInfo and TensorIndexLLM/Img
Allocator: use normal unique_ptr for AllocBytes so users can call directly
threading: use -> because AlignedPtr no longer assumes arrays
PiperOrigin-RevId: 745918637
Gemma receives a MatMulEnv arg, with comment on lifetime
Split threading into topology so the latter can be used in allocator
Add AllocClasses() for non-POD (ThreadPool)
Support binding pool to NUMA node
Update threading_test with latency measurements
Also update Highway version.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 736904748
Adds Stride to ConstMat, to support decompression of C output for test
matmul_test: add line numbers to output
Also ignore "N is not a multiple of nc" when N==nc
PiperOrigin-RevId: 731096662
ops.h: move CreateInvTimescale to allow calling without depending on gemma
Pass around MatMulEnv instead of pools to avoid re-creating the env
profiler.h can now be used outside SIMD code
allocator: add StepBytes and QuantumSteps
rename worker thread with package/cluster in the name
threading: add Visit* to IndexRange
PiperOrigin-RevId: 718766704
* Add Parallelize*Range helpers and partitioning helpers
* Refactor Pinning class, store original affinity (required to construct another NestedPools after pinning happened)
Compress:
* prevent Compress printing stats in tests
* zero-pad tensors
Matmul:
* add matmul_unit_test (TODO) and bench_matmul
* matmul_test: change norm to row vectors (that is what is added) and include bf16 rounding error
* Prepare for L2/L3 retrieval
PiperOrigin-RevId: 700603811
Add Extents2D, Range2D vocab types
Matmul uses ConstMat for inputs and RowPtr for output
Move RowVectorBatch to basics.h
Separate threading.cc
Fix topology string: report cores not LPs, and #HT
Move QStride/IsMHA into LayerConfig
ImageTokens does not require make_unique.
matmul_test: no longer require template args
PiperOrigin-RevId: 692963605
Improved threading.h, fix thread counts for single package/cluster systems
Temporarily forces to a single socket. Prefill 29.28 tps, decode 6.92.
Also fix benchmarks.cc build, update tensor allocator to Allocator
PiperOrigin-RevId: 687307167
add app.h comment
compress-inl: remove unused typedef
gemma-inl: add missing HWY_ATTR and cast
separate sum-inl.h and basics.h headers
replace more hwy::bfloat16_t with BF16
update include pragmas
update dot_test thresholds
update Highway version in Bazel for HWY_RCAST_ALIGNED fix
PiperOrigin-RevId: 684464326
Definition of array size is moved to the constructor.
Allocation is separate and parallelized.
All users of weights_raw.h migrated to CompressedWeights and weights_raw.h deleted.
Replaced all previous ForEachTensor functions with a single unified function.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 684451604
Supports converting all weight/activation formats to native MulT (bf16/f32)
Also:
- ConstMat/MutableMat for const correctness
- Move RowVectorBatch to allocator.h so it can be used from Matmul
- Add matmul.h so MatMulEnv can be used from Activations
- Remove kMaxThreads, detect from PerClusterPools
- Build fix: -inl.h files must be textual_hdrs, and highway.h should precede -inl.h
