The llama.cpp project released version b10702, which includes a specific optimization for the Q2_0 quantization dot-product path on AMD's gfx1201 architecture. This update broadens the HIP implementation to use native amdgcn permutation instructions, improving performance for this specific hardware configuration.
- Optimizes `vec_dot_q2_0_q8_1` with native amdgcn perm for gfx1201.
- Broadens HIP's Q2_0 permutation optimization and removes redundant availability guards.
- Optimizes HIP Q2_0 MMQ unpack using native permutation instructions.
- Restores MMQ tile index handling and labels HIP preprocessor guards in CUDA code.
This release provides binaries for macOS, Linux, Windows, Android, and openEuler across CPU, GPU (CUDA, ROCm, Vulkan, OpenCL), and specialized backends like OpenVINO and SYCL.
