b12202

The llama.cpp v1.220.2 release introduces enhanced BF16 precision support across multiple components, aligning with reference implementations by moving specific operations like GLM4 family projections, MiMoVL vision matmuls, and Qwen3-TTS speaker encoder conv1d to BF16 where appropriate. Backends such as CUDA, Hexagon, OpenCL, WebGPU, and Vulkan now uniformly handle GGML_PREC_BF16 similarly to F32, while CPU, SpaceMIT, and ET backends extend flash attention support to BF16 with F32 accumulation. Flash attention tests now include BF16 cases, and the KQ multiplication in Llama is updated to request BF16 precision. A TODO remains in clip.cpp for future work.

b12180

The release adds the Kimi-K3.1-Pro text model to llama.cpp, replacing full-attention MLA layers in K3 with DSA (Dynamic Sparse Attention) layers featuring a lightning indexer. The indexer uses an additive mask over the cache and reuses sparse flash attention paths, while preserving existing KDA layers and MoE components. The model's architecture includes four indexer tensors per DSA layer, hybrid memory for caching, and maintains quantization integrity by excluding indexer parameters from quant overrides. Verified against HF checkpoint with identical PPL beyond context length, and supports multiple platforms including macOS, Linux, Windows, Android, and iOS.
