The llama.cpp project released build b11018, which includes a fix for a memory allocation error occurring when using the Intel Arc B70 GPU with SYCL backend.

  • Resolves an issue where memory allocation failed for workloads exceeding 19.3GB on the Arc B70.
  • Provides binaries for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), Linux (CPU, CUDA, ROCm, OpenVINO, SYCL), Windows (CPU, CUDA, Vulkan, OpenCL, SYCL, ROCm, OpenVINO), Android, and UI.
  • Includes specific builds for Ubuntu x64/arm64/s390x with various accelerator support including CUDA 12/13, ROCm 10.0, and OpenVINO 2026.3.1.

This update ensures stable operation on Intel Arc B70 hardware by correcting the memory handling logic in the SYCL implementation.
