The llama.cpp project released build b10232, which introduces support for DeepSeek V4 hyper-connections via the Metal backend. This update adds implementation of GGML_OP_DSV4_HC_COMB, GGML_OP_DSV4_HC_PRE, and GGML_OP_DSV4_HC_POST operations.
- The new kernels utilize SIMDgroup register and shuffle optimizations.
- Metal dispatch plumbing was added to support production Sinkhorn iteration counts and embedding widths.
- Pre-built binaries are available for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), iOS, Linux, Windows, Android, and openEuler across various hardware backends including CPU, CUDA, ROCm, Vulkan, and OpenVINO.
This release enables efficient inference of DeepSeek V4 models on Apple Silicon devices using the Metal framework.
