As we only support static graphs for the time and we don't know the size
of the output of top-p, we have to do value-scaling same as for min-p
operator.
Further improvements can be applied to the unit-test (i.e. check for
equivalence of top_p happening on backend with top_p happening on cpu)
and also by constructing candidates and sorting those as opposed to
reversing the sort of the logits (this would be arange +
get_rows instead of argsort + get_rows)
This commit updates the backend sampling implementation to support
intermixed usage of backend and CPU samplers within the same batch.
The initial implementation was developed as an all-or-nothing solution:
either perform backend sampling for the entire batch, or perform CPU
sampling for the entire batch.
The motivation for this change is to support batches with mixed
sequences. For example, we may have a backend sampler configured for
sequence 0, while sequence 1 in the same batch uses CPU sampling. This
was not supported in the initial implementation.
This issue manifested in llama-server with the webui: decoding with
backend samplers would work initially, but after changing to CPU
sampling, a slot (sequence) could still be using a backend sampler.
This meant that logits in output_reserve would not be allocated,
resulting in an error.
The solution in this commit inspects the batch to determine which
sampling modes are needed and allocates buffers accordingly. However,
there is a known inefficiency: when we have intermixed backend/CPU
samplers in the same batch, we currently copy all logits to the host,
even for sequences using backend samplers.
Added test_backend_cpu_mixed_batch to verify correct behavior with
mixed backend/CPU samplers in a single batch, including dynamic
sampler switching between decode calls.
* vulkan: Implement top-k
Each pass launches workgroups that each sort 2^N elements (where N is usually 7-10)
and discards all but the top K. Repeat until only K are left. And there's a fast
path when K==1 to just find the max value rather than sorting.
* fix pipeline selection
* vulkan: Add N-ary search algorithm for topk
* microoptimizations
This commit fixes the issue where both sampled tokens and logits/probs
were not being copied correctly from the backend to the host when
multiple backend samplers were used.
A test for this scenario has also been added to ensure that both types
of data are copied correctly when different backend samplers are
employed.
* vulkan: support larger argsort
This is an extension of the original bitonic sorting shader that puts the
temporary values in global memory and when more than 1024 threads are needed
it runs multiple workgroups and synchronizes through a pipelinebarrier.
To improve the memory access pattern, a copy of the float value is kept with
the index value. I've applied this same change to the original shared memory
version of the shader, which is still used when ncols <= 1024.
* Reduce the number of shader variants. Use smaller workgroups when doing a single pass, for a modest perf boost
* reduce loop overhead
* run multiple cols per invocation, to reduce barrier overhead

Argsort is used for top-k currently. WE optimize argsort by 2 things:
1. Use `DeviceRadixSort` for single-row/sequence to parallelize it
across our SMs
2. Use `DeviceSegmentedSort` for multi-row/sequence as this is the
correct entrypoint (the function chooses different execution paths,
it contains `DeviceSegmentedRadixSort` as one of the paths and will
choose the best one according to heuristics.

This commit enables all exisiting backend sampler tests in the
test-backend-sampler. Previously, some tests were disabled because
there were missing ggml operation implementations.
This commit adds support for performing sampling operations on the
backend (e.g. GPU) as part of the model computation graph.
The motivation for this feature is to enable sampling to be performed
directly on the backend as part of the computation graph being executed,
allowing for some or all of the sampling to be done on the backend.
For example, the backend sampler chain might select/sample a token
directly in which case only the sampled token needs to be transferred
from device memory to host memory.
It is also possible for the backend samplers to perform filtering of
the logits, or compute and filter the probability distribution, in
which case only the filtered logits or probabilites need to be
transferred back to system memory for further processing by CPU
samplers.
Currently the backend sampling works in a similar manner to how
pooling works, it is a function that is called by build_graph and the
sampler operations become part of the models computation graph.
