This is a breaking change that's going to give you three benefits:
1. Your inference commands should load 100x faster
2. You may be able to safely load models 2x larger
3. You can run many concurrent inference processes
This was accomplished by changing the file format so we can mmap()
weights directly into memory without having to read() or copy them
thereby ensuring the kernel can make its file cache pages directly
accessible to our inference processes; and secondly, that the file
cache pages are much less likely to get evicted (which would force
loads to hit disk) because they're no longer competing with memory
pages that were needlessly created by gigabytes of standard i/o.
The new file format supports single-file models like LLaMA 7b, and
it also supports multi-file models like LLaMA 13B. Our Python tool
now merges the foo.1, foo.2, etc. files back into a single file so
that the C++ code which maps it doesn't need to reshape data every
time. That's made llama.cpp so much simpler. Much of its load code
has now been deleted.
Furthermore, this change ensures that tensors are aligned properly
on a 32-byte boundary. That opens the door to seeing if we can get
additional performance gains on some microprocessors, by using ops
that require memory alignment.
Lastly note that both POSIX and the Windows platform are supported

* Revert 7e53955 (#542)
Still needs to be fixed properly
* Fix linking on mingw32
|
|
* Be more strict about converting float to double
* Test equivalence of round, SILU implementations
Test module is commented out in CMakeLists.txt because the tests may
take a long time, depending on how much the compiler optimizes.
* Fix softmax in perplexity.cpp
* all : prefer float over double where appropriate
* perplexity : add <cmath>

`llama_sample_top_p_top_k` was missing the struct annotation on line 126.
This causes a compiler issue when being parsed by the Kotlin C interop generator.
This commit fixes the above issue by adding the struct annotation.

* Support calling mlock() on loaded model data on Linux and macOS
This is enabled by a new --mlock command line option.
Using mlock() disables swapping and memory compression for the model
data. Doing so can be useful on systems where the model takes up a
large fraction of system RAM. In my experience, macOS is quite eager to
start compressing llama.cpp's memory, which then makes it halt for a few
seconds while it decompresses, even with a model that uses "only" 25GB
out of 32GB.
Of course, this comes at the cost of forcing the system to swap or
compress other processes' memory instead, so it needs to be used with
care and shouldn't be enabled by default.
In theory it should be possible to support this on Windows as well using
VirtualLock(), but I'm not much of a Windows user.
* Update llama.cpp

* working but ugly
* add arg flag, not working on embedding mode
* typo
* Working! Thanks to @nullhook
* make params argument instead of hardcoded boolean. remove useless time check
* start doing the instructions but not finished. This probably doesnt compile
* Embeddings extraction support
