* hexagon: fix tail corruption with rows sizes not multiple of 256
* hexagon: use different stride for repacking partial blocks
* hex-mm: update repack and kernels to avoid shuffles for full 256-element blocks
Previous commit changed the repacking to use even:odd (0:1,2:3,..) packing
instead of the original (0:128,1:129,...) packing in order to fix tail corruption.
Since the mm kernels already deal with partial tails we can use even:odd
packing only for the last block.
This avoid performance penalty of having to shuffle to zip the elements
in the common case.

Hitting error while compiling on windows:
error C3861: 'unsetenv': identifier not found
Reason: unsetenv() is a POSIX function; it doesn’t exist on Windows. Visual Studio (MSVC) won’t recognize it.
Proposed fix: Use _putenv_s() (Windows equivalent)
This is supported by MSVC and achieves the same effect: it removes the environment variable from the process environment.

Add a separate rms_norm_f32_vec4 kernel using float4 (128-bit) vectorized
memory loads/stores. Host-side dispatch routes to the vec4 kernel when
ncols is divisible by 4 and strides are aligned; otherwise falls back to
the original rms_norm_f32 kernel which is completely untouched.
A separate kernel is used instead of a runtime branch inside the existing
kernel to avoid register pressure and instruction cache pollution that
would degrade the scalar path (~22% measured regression with runtime if).
Performance (A100, nrows=512, test-backend-ops perf, 5-run avg):
[512,512]: 427 -> 624 GB/s (+46%)
[768,512]: 626 -> 850 GB/s (+36%)

Scalar fallback (4097,512): 1476 -> 1471 GB/s (no regression)

ADD_RMS_NORM 25/25, RMS_NORM_MUL_ROPE 72/72 passed.
* ggml : transpose fused GDN state access for coalesced memory reads (#20436)
The fused Gated Delta Net kernel accessed the [S_v, S_v] state matrix
column-wise on row-major storage, causing strided reads (stride S_v =
128 floats = 512 bytes) that waste GPU cache bandwidth. This produced a
39% regression on Qwen3.5-9B (Metal, M4 Max) compared to the unfused
path.
Transpose the state indexing so threads read contiguously:
- Metal: s_ptr[is*S_v] -> s_ptr[is] (stride 1 vs S_v)
- CUDA: curr_state[i*S_v+col] -> curr_state[col*S_v+i] (coalesced)
- CPU: restructured loops for row-wise transposed access
Also add --fused-gdn [on|off|auto] CLI flag (mirrors --flash-attn) so
users can control fused GDN independently of auto-detection.
All GATED_DELTA_NET backend-ops tests pass.

* ggml : use SIMD dot products in CPU GDN kernel, couple AR/chunked fused flags
- Replace scalar inner loops with ggml_vec_dot_f32 for SIMD-optimized
dot products in the CPU fused GDN kernel (delta and attention output)
- Couple fused_gdn_ar and fused_gdn_ch flags in auto-detection: if one
path lacks device support, disable both to prevent state layout mismatch
between transposed (fused) and non-transposed (unfused) formats

* vulkan: add GATED_DELTA_NET op support
Implements the fused gated delta net recurrence as a Vulkan compute
shader with full support for scalar gate, KDA vector gate, GQA
broadcast, multi-token sequences, and permuted (non-contiguous) q/k
inputs. Specialization constants select head size (32/64/128) and
KDA mode at pipeline creation time.
Passes all 13 test-backend-ops cases on AMD Radeon 890M (RADV GFX1150).

* vulkan: optimize GATED_DELTA_NET shader (Phase 1)
- vec4 dot products on all inner loops (dp4 hardware intrinsic)
- Cache exp(g) in shared memory for KDA path, eliminating ~32K
redundant global reads and ~16K redundant exp() calls per token
- vec4 fused decay + rank-1 update (3 vec4 ops vs 12 scalar ops)
- Add perf benchmark cases for GATED_DELTA_NET to test-backend-ops
KDA TG: +5.4% throughput. Non-KDA: no regressions.

* vulcal and perf fixes

* Fix metal
* fix vulcan
* Rename threshold & fix wrong scale
* Fix MOE
* Shelf backend implementations (CUDA, Metal, Vulkan, arch-specific SIMD)
Remove NVFP4 support from GPU backends and architecture-specific
optimized dot products. These should be added in separate PRs so
backend specialists can review them independently.
Reverted files:
- ggml-cuda: common.cuh, convert.cu, mmq.cu/cuh, mmvq.cu, vecdotq.cuh,
quantize.cu/cuh, mma.cuh, ggml-cuda.cu, fattn-tile.cuh
- ggml-metal: ggml-metal.metal, ggml-metal-device.cpp, ggml-metal-impl.h,
ggml-metal-ops.cpp
- ggml-vulkan: ggml-vulkan.cpp, all vulkan-shaders/*
- ggml-cpu arch: arm/quants.c, x86/quants.c, powerpc/quants.c, s390/quants.c
Core NVFP4 support (type definition, CPU fallback dot product,
quantization, dequantization, conversion) is retained.
* Fix arch-fallback.h: add NVFP4 generic fallback for all platforms
After shelving backend-specific SIMD implementations, the generic
CPU dot product needs to be aliased on ARM, x86, PowerPC, and s390
platforms that previously relied on arch-specific versions.
* quantize: add NVFP4 as a quantization type option
* Fix ggml_fp32_to_ue4m3: handle subnormal values
Previously, values with ue4m3_exp <= 0 were clamped to 0, causing
all small scales to underflow. This made NVFP4 quantization via
llama-quantize produce garbage (PPL = 5.8M) since typical transformer
weights have amax/6.0 in the range 0.001-0.01, which falls in the
UE4M3 subnormal range.
Now subnormals are properly encoded as man * 2^-9 (exp=0, man=1..7),
matching the decode path in ggml_ue4m3_to_fp32.
Result: NVFP4 requantization now produces PPL = 15.25 (vs F16 = 14.33),
comparable to Q4_1 (PPL = 15.81) at slightly lower BPW (4.70 vs 5.15).
* Restore ARM NEON NVFP4 dot product implementation
Restores the optimized ggml_vec_dot_nvfp4_q8_0 for ARM NEON using
vqtbl1q_s8 lookup and ggml_vdotq_s32 dot products.
tg128 performance: 4.37 t/s (generic) -> 13.66 t/s (NEON) = 3.1x speedup
* Optimize ARM NEON NVFP4 dot product: LUT + vpaddq + vfmaq
- Add ue4m3_scale_lut[128] to ggml-common.h replacing branch-heavy
ggml_ue4m3_to_fp32() in the hot loop
- Use vpaddq_s32 for pairwise int32 reduction instead of vaddvq_s32
- Accumulate with vfmaq_f32 into float32x4_t vector accumulators
tg128: 8.1 -> 31.0 t/s (3.8x speedup, 77% of Q4_1 speed)
* ARM NEON NVFP4: rearrange q8 to match nibble layout
Alternative approach: rearrange q8 data to match the NVFP4 lo/hi
nibble layout instead of rearranging the looked-up NVFP4 values.
Eliminates vcombine_s8(vget_low, vget_low) shuffles.
Performance is equivalent (~18.5 t/s) - the bottleneck is the 2x
block overhead from QK=16 vs QK=32, not the shuffle instructions.
* CPU only backend 64 super-block layout

* Remove unused LUT

Replace GGML_ABORT("fatal error") in ggml_metal_synchronize() with
error flag + return. This aligns synchronize error handling with
graph_compute, which already returns GGML_STATUS_FAILED for the same
condition.
When a command buffer fails (e.g., iOS GPU access revocation during
backgrounding, macOS eGPU disconnect, OOM), the backend enters an
error state instead of killing the host process. Subsequent
graph_compute calls return GGML_STATUS_FAILED immediately. Recovery
requires recreating the backend.
Failed extra command buffers are properly released on the error path
to avoid Metal object leaks.
Enable mul_mv_ext small-batch kernels (BS 2-8) for BF16, Q2_K,
and Q3_K quantization types. These types previously fell through
to the slower single-row mul_mv path.
BF16 uses the float4 dequantize path (like F16). Q2_K and Q3_K
use the float4x4 K-quant path (like Q4_K/Q5_K/Q6_K).

This patch addresses an Internal Compiler Error (Segmentation fault)
observed with gcc 15 by replacing the intrinsic + cast by doing
a cat on the data first and then calling the intrinsic. This bypasses the
buggy compiler path while maintaining identical instruction selection.
Performance Verification:
Assembly analysis on RHEL 9 (GCC 15.1.1) confirms that both the original
code and this fix generate the identical Power10 prefixed load instruction:
`plxv 40, 2(14)`
This ensures zero performance regression while unblocking builds on
newer toolchains.
Reproduced on:
- Alpine Linux + GCC 15.2.0-r2
- RHEL 9 + GCC 15.1.1 (gcc-toolset-15)

* Adds CPU-to-CUDA copy capability to
ggml_backend_cuda_cpy_tensor_async()
* Adds function to relax sync requirements between input copies on
supported backends (CUDA for now)
* Exchanges synchronous copy with async copy function.
* Adds macro guards to allow compilation in non-CUDA builds
* Reworked backend detection in ggml-backend.cpp to avoid linking
conflicts
* Relax requirement of checks in async CUDA copies from backend and buffer type to just buffer type, to avoid linking issues
* Minor cleanup
* Makes opt-in to relax use of explicit syncs more general. Backends like
vulkan which require a synchronization between HtoD copies and graph
execution could also adopt this change now.
* Reintroduces stricter check for CPU->CUDA backend async copy via
GGML_DEVICE_TYPE_CPU.
* Corrects initialization of ggml_backend_sync_mode in
ggml_backend_sched_split initialization
* Simplifies synchronizations to adhere to `saaasg` pattern.

* ggml-webgpu: fix workgroup dispatch limit for large batch sizes
WebGPU limits workgroup sizes to 65535 per dimension. Large MUL_MAT
operations with batch sizes exceedeing this limi would fail.
* add compute_2d_workgroups() helper to split total workgroup ID across
X/Y dimensions
* update mul_mat_reg_tile.wgsl to reconstruct linear workgroup ID from 2D
dispatch
* update mul_mat_subgroup_matrix.wgsl to reconstruct linear workgroup ID
from 2D dispatch
* update mul_mat.wgsl to compute global index from 2D workgroup
coordinates
* refactor all three mul_mat dispatch paths to use the shared helper
* ggml-webgpu: add bounds checking for over-dispatched workgroups
2D workgroup dispatch can over-dispatch when total workgroups don't
divide evenly into the 65535 per-dimension limit. Extra workgroups
would compute invalid batch indices, causing memory corruption.
* add batch_idx bound check to mul_mat_reg_tile.wgsl and
mul_mat_subgroup_matrix.wgsl to prevent over-dispatched workgroups
from accessing invalid memory
* fixes test failures with large batch sizes (eg., bs=[128, 1024])

* ggml-virtgpu-backend: validate the consistency of the received objects
This patch adds consistency checks in the
ggml-virtgpu-backend (running on the host side) to ensure that the
data received from the guest is consistent (valid pointers, valid
sizes and offsets).
* ggml-virtgpu-backend: add fallback/skips for optional ggml backend methods
```
1. bck->iface.synchronize(bck)
2. buft->iface.get_alloc_size(buft, op)
3. buft->iface.get_max_size(buft)
```
these three methods are optional in the GGML interface. `get_max_size`
was already properly defaulted, but `backend sychronize` and `butf
get_max_size` would have segfaulted the backend if not implemented.

Updated Ops support handles larger ubatches.
* Improve CUDA graph capture
Currently, CUDA graphs are eagerly enabled on the first call to ggml_backend_cuda_graph_compute. If the graph properties keep changing (4+ consecutive updates), the graph is permanently disabled. This is suboptimal because:
- The first call always incurs CUDA graph capture overhead even if the graph is unstable
- Once permanently disabled, CUDA graphs never re-enable even after the graph stabilizes (e.g., switching from prompt processing to decode)
The new approach delays CUDA graph activation until warmup completes: the same cgraph must be called at least twice with matching properties before CUDA graph capture begins. This avoids wasted capture overhead on volatile graphs and allows graphs to become eligible once they stabilize.
This also fixes issues such as https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/discussions/19708
