* remove support for multiple ggufs in a single file
this was an attempt to make it easier to import multimodal models into
ollama. this was rarely used and error prone so remove it
* fix: create fused model from blob
Currently, when the backend is created, the tensors are loaded at the
same time, which is a slow operation. This separates them to be two
steps:
- Create backend, including enumerating tensors and memory allocation
- Loading tensor data
This allows more flexibility in managing model loading.
When creating a quantized model from safetensors we
need the array KV values to be loaded.Changing this
value to -1 loads the KV values on the returned
layer to be used and saved during quantization.
* Move quantization logic to GGML via new backend
This moves the model aware logic to Go code and calls GGMLs quantization code for model creation.
* Remove "add model quantizations"
This is no longer needed now that quantization is implemented in Go+GGML code directly.
More validation during the safetensor creation process.
Properly handle relative paths (like ./model.safetensors) while rejecting absolute paths
Add comprehensive test coverage for various paths
No functionality changes for valid inputs - existing workflows remain unaffected
Leverages Go 1.24's new os.Root functionality for secure containment
feat: add new Ollama engine using ggml through cgo
This change introduces a new way to run pretrained models. It introduces 3 high level interfaces and a bunch of smaller helper interfaces to facilitate this.
- `model.Model` defines the interface for a model architecture. Models such as `llama` and `mllama`, which are provided as examples, can implement the model's forward propagation in the `Forward` method. This method will be called to generate completions. This interface can be found in `model/model.go`
- `ml.Backend` defines the interface for a backend tensor library, in this case `ggml`. Among other things, a Backend is responsible for loading a pretrained model into hardware (GPU, CPU, etc) and providing an interface for Models to access loaded tensors. This interface can be found in `ml/backend.go`
- `ml.Tensor` defines the interface for a tensor and tensor operations
This is the first implementation of the new engine. Follow up PRs will implement more features:
- non-greedy sampling (#8410)
- integration with Ollama and KV caching (#8301)
- more model support (#9080) with more coming soon
