* cann: improve device ID handling and aclnnArange checks
- Stop relying on CANN's internal device ID retrieval; use a global variable instead.
- Enforce stricter dimension validation in aclnnArange for better compatibility across CANN versions.
* cann: use thread local var
This commit applies .clang-format rules to all source files under the
ggml-cann directory to ensure consistent coding style and readability.
The .clang-format option `SortIncludes: false` has been set to disable
automatic reordering of include directives.
No functional changes are introduced.

This commit fixes a CPU-side memory leak issue in the CANN backend,
which occurred when intermediate aclTensorList objects were not properly
released after operator execution. The leak happened during repeated
invocations of CANN ops (e.g., FlashAttention), leading to increasing
host memory usage over time.
Proper resource cleanup (aclDestroyTensorList and related release logic)
has been added to ensure that all temporary tensors are correctly freed.
Many Ascend operators internally use FP16 precision for computation.
If input data is in FP32, it must first be cast to FP16 before
computation, and then cast back to FP32 after computation, which
introduces unnecessary cast operations. Moreover, FP16 computation
requires significantly less workload compared to FP32, leading to
noticeable efficiency improvements.
In this change, `get_rows`, `rms_norm`, and `flash_attn_ext` are extended
to support multiple data types. Validation on the Qwen2 0.5b model shows
correct accuracy and about 10% performance gain in concurrent scenarios.

* CANN: improve ACL graph matching
Record `ne` and `nb` information for src tensors and include them in the
graph matching check. This enhances the robustness of ACL graph matching
by preventing incorrect matches when src tensors share the same data
address but differ in shape or stride.
* CANN: add op_params match
* CANN: Fix ggml_cann_set_device to avoid redundant device switches
- Added a check to skip aclrtSetDevice if the current device is already set.
- Prevents unnecessary context switches while keeping thread/device consistency.
* CANN: add device default id
Since the prefill length is not fixed, graphs constructed for the
prefill stage cannot be reused. For this reason, ACL graph
execution is disabled by default during prefill.
* CANN: Add ROPE sin/cos cache for reuse
Introduce sin/cos caching mechanism in ROPE to avoid redundant
computation across layers. The cache is built on the first layer
per device and reused by subsequent layers if parameters match.
- Added sin_cache / cos_cache pointers and position_length tracking
- Introduced cache validity flags and properties:
(ext_factor, theta_scale, freq_scale, attn_factor, is_neox)
- Accelerates ROPE by eliminating repeated sin/cos generation
This change reduces overhead in multi-layer scenarios while
preserving correctness by verifying parameter consistency.

* CANN: implement LRU cache for ACL graphs in CANN backend
- Introduce ggml_cann_graph_lru_cache to store multiple ggml_cann_graph objects.
- Graphs are loaded on demand and evicted using LRU policy when capacity is exceeded.
- Updated push, move_to_front, and clear methods to manage cached graphs efficiently.
- Ensures reuse of graphs, reducing graph reconstruction overhead in CANN backend.
* fix typo
* The LRU cache capacity can be configured via an env variable

* vulkan: sort graph to allow more parallel execution
Add a backend proc to allow the backend to modify the graph. The
vulkan implementation looks at which nodes depend on each other
and greedily reorders them to group together nodes that don't
depend on each other. It only reorders the nodes, doesn't change
the contents of any of them.
With #15489, this reduces the number of synchronizations needed.
* call optimize_graph per-split
Fixes#15330
Adjust the allocation size of acl_rstd. The parameter `dims` is set to 3 according to the CANN documentation.

Previously, the slope tensor was set to fp16 to improve efficiency.
While this worked correctly in FA, it caused precision issues in soft_max.
This change applies different data types for different operators
to balance both accuracy and performance.
* [CANN] Support eager execution mode under ACL graph compilation
Add support for running operators in eager mode while ACL graph
compilation is enabled. This allows bypassing graph execution
and directly submitting ops, which is useful for debugging and
reducing graph build overhead in certain scenarios.

* CANN: fix RoPE cache issue on multi-device
RoPE cache only needs to be computed once per token.
However, in multi-device scenarios, not every device starts
computation from layer 0, which may lead to unallocated memory
issues and precision errors.
This commit records the first layer of each device to avoid
the above issues.
* CANN: Optimize first-layer detection method
* CANN: Remove trailing whitespace
* CANN: Only cache the data that can be determined as unchanged through the parameters.
* CANN: Update function comment
* CANN(flash-attn): refactor mask handling and improve performance
1. Refactored the mask computation in Flash Attention, unified the logic without separating prefill and decode.
2. Optimized performance in non-alibi scenarios by reducing one repeat operation.
3. Updated operator management to explicitly mark unsupported cases on 310P devices and when dim is not divisible by 16.

* feat(cann): add optional support for ACL Graph execution
This commit adds support for executing ggml computational graphs using
Huawei's ACL graph mode via the USE_CANN_GRAPH flag. The support can be
enabled at compile time using the CMake option:
-DUSE_CANN_GRAPH=ON
By default, ACL graph execution is **disabled**, and the fallback path
uses node-by-node execution.
Key additions:
- CMake option to toggle graph mode
- Graph capture and execution logic using
- Tensor property matching to determine whether graph update is required
- Safe fallback and logging if the environment variable LLAMA_SET_ROWS
is unset or invalid
This prepares the backend for performance improvements in repetitive graph
execution scenarios on Ascend devices.
