The llama.cpp project has released version b11044, which includes an update to the hexagon backend for improved image-to-column (im2col) operations. The release provides pre-built binaries for macOS, Linux, Windows, Android, and openEuler across CPU, GPU, and other hardware accelerators.

  • ggml-hexagon now accepts 1D and padded IM2COL ops.
  • The pure-DDR IM2COL kernel is made 2D-aware.
  • The IM2COL DMA patch-embed fast path is extended to 1D.
  • A blocked-staging general IM2COL DMA kernel is added.
