The encoder cache needs to know the position of images in the input
stream so that it knows when to delete them. Previously images didn't
have a position, so we implied one by breaking batches before an
image and then assuming the image was in the first position. However,
multimodal objects are now given explicit positions in the input
stream, so we can use that instead.
Breaking batches was also a way to simulate a cross attention mask
for mllama. However, given that it only supports a single sequence
and a single image, this mask doesn't serve any real purpose.
Removing the batch break does not appear to affect the quality of
the output.
Most of this is simply moving the input data structures to a new
package to avoid import cycles.
some tensors are expected to be used in repeating layers but are not
themselves repeated. this change copies these tensors into the same
backends as their repeating counterparts to minimize copying tensors
between backends
use a similar strategy as llama.cpp for deciding where tensors should be
allocated. this will be improved later to be aware of usable memory
before assigning the tensor
This change bring in various interface cleanups along with greatly improving the performance of the sampler.
Tested with llama3.2 on local machine.
Improves performance from ~ 70 tokens/s -> 135 tokens/s with topK(40) enabled.
Without topK performance is ~ 110 tokens/s
The problem with default.target is that it always points to the target that is currently started. So if you boot into single user mode or the rescue mode still Ollama tries to start.
I noticed this because either tried (and failed) to start all the time during a system update, where Ollama definitely is not wanted.
Various vision models have different requirements for how they
receive their inputs. For example:
- Mllama wants images together with text and the image embeddings
don't themselves have positions or get stored in the main KV cache
- Llava-style models feed in embeddings similar to tokens and
images correspond to a varying number of tokens in the cache.
In addition, the strategy for providing inputs must support batching
and multiple sequences, which are managed by the runner. At the same
time, we want to keep data handling fully in the model so that new
architectures are not bottlenecked by runner code which does not
understand their particular requirements.
This provides a method for models to edit the input stream so that
it meets their needs while still being in a format that the runner
understands. This allows the runner to avoid special processing
for different models.
In addition, this fixes a regression where non-vision models may
try to incorrectly interpret images.
We sometimes tokenize partial strings. For example, with
multimodal inputs, we split the input string around the images
and then tokenize each piece. In these cases, we should only add
the special tokens on the first piece.
This commit replaces the old pull implementation in the server package
with the new, faster, more robust pull implementation in the registry
package.
The new endpoint, and now the remove endpoint too, are behind the
feature gate "client2" enabled only by setting the OLLAMA_EXPERIMENT
environment variable include "client2".
Currently, the progress indication is wired to perform the same as the
previous implementation to avoid making changes to the CLI, and because
the status reports happen at the start of the download, and the end of
the write to disk, the progress indication is not as smooth as it could
be. This is a known issue and will be addressed in a future change.
This implementation may be ~0.5-1.0% slower in rare cases, depending on
network and disk speed, but is generally MUCH faster and more robust
than the its predecessor in all other cases.
- output backend system info when initializing the backend. this ensures
this information is always present without needing to be called
explicitly
- convert to structured logging
- enumerate devices rather than backends since devices are ordered
- track device indices grouped by device name
