Fix raw-vs-local device id confusion under -dev/-devd subsets (#1826)
llm_load_tensors stores `default_layer_device[i]` as a local index into
`model.devices` (consistent with `device_mem[]`, `model.splits[]`, and
all graph-building consumers), but the four
`llama_default_buffer_type_offload(model, default_layer_device[i])`
callsites passed it through as if it were a raw post-CVD device id.
Under `-dev`/`-devd` subsets where `model.devices != {0..N-1}`, this
selected the wrong buffer type. Wrap with `model.devices[...]` to match
the existing `model.devices[main_gpu]` pattern on the adjacent lines.

llama_init_from_model has the same bug for `main_gpu`: every consumer
(auto-fit override at line 3428, MTP clamp, the `model.devices[main_gpu]`
translations at lines 3678/3682, and graph-building `splits[main_gpu]`)
treats it as a local index, but the five single-GPU backend init paths
(CUDA, Vulkan, SYCL, Kompute, CANN) pass `model->main_gpu` straight to
the backend init, which expects a raw device id. e.g. `-dev CUDA1` with
default `--main-gpu 0` and `split_mode=NONE` called
`ggml_backend_cuda_init(0)` instead of `cuda_init(1)`. Compute
`main_gpu_id` once and use it for all five paths.

MLA TP -khad: ggml_dequant_hadamard fused op + wv_b/wk_b_pp Hadamard fold (#1852)
* ggml: ggml_dequant_hadamard fused op for MLA -khad path

Adds a new ggml op that fuses (ggml_cast -> F32) + (ggml_hadamard) into a
single kernel. Reads a quantized (or F16/F32) source and produces a per-
Hadamard-block F32 chunk with the inverse transform applied, without
materializing a full-size F32 intermediate buffer.

Motivation: the MLA pp_opt path in build_deepseek2.cpp un-encodes the
H-applied cache_nope view at every PP call. Today that runs as a cast
(quant -> F32) followed by a separate ggml_hadamard kernel, costing two
full-size F32 passes per layer per rank per call. Fusing them halves
the bandwidth on the un-encode and removes one kernel launch.

CUDA kernels in dequant_hadamard.cu lift the Walsh-Hadamard butterfly
from hadamard.cu and dequant helpers from dequantize.cuh:

  * qr=1 layout (q8_0): consecutive dequant pair, stage 1 fused with load
  * qr=2 layout (q4_0 / q4_1 / q5_0 / q5_1 / q6_0 / iq4_nl): dequant pair
    at stride qk/2, explicit stage 1 after sync
  * F16 has a dedicated kernel
  * F32 source falls back to the standalone Hadamard op

CPU impl in iqk_cpu_ops.cpp composes the existing type_traits.to_float
dequant with fast_ht for graph completeness. nh in {64, 128, 256, 512}.

* MLA-TP: Hadamard pretransform of wv_b/wk_b_pp for -khad

Fold the 64-block orthonormal Hadamard into wv_b and wk_b_pp once at
context init so the pp_opt mul_mats consume the K cache in its on-disk
encoded basis. The per-PP-call cache_nope un-Hadamard is then skipped
(rope half still un-applied — it goes to FA via concat, no wk_b multiply).

Math is identity by H^T H = I: mul_mat(H@wv_b, H@cache) = wv_b^T @ cache.
For mla=2/3 absorb, composes correctly with the existing post-FA
ggml_hadamard(kqv_compressed, 64).

All-or-nothing across layers under a castable type-allowlist (excludes
1-3 bpw IQ types whose requant blows up beyond PPL noise). Models with
ineligible weights fall back to the runtime un-Hadamard path unchanged.

Composes with the fused ggml_dequant_hadamard op (prior commit): with the
fold active only the rope half still runs the runtime transform, via the
fused kernel.

* MLA-TP: fix TG with -khad after wv_b/wk_b_pp fold

The absorb branch of build_deepseek2_tp_attention applies
ggml_hadamard to kqv_compressed after FA, then multiplies by
wv_b. Pre-fold this was needed because wv_b was un-encoded; with
the wv_b fold (prior commit) the mul_mat already expects
H-encoded kqv_compressed:

  mul_mat(H @ wv_b, kqv_encoded) = wv_b^T @ H @ H @ kqv_unencoded
                                 = wv_b^T @ kqv_unencoded   (H @ H = I)

Skip the post-FA hadamard when model.khad_pretransformed is set
so the two H applications cancel instead of double-applying.

Affects the absorb branch: TG (n_tokens=1), short-context PP
(n_kv < 1024), and models without wk_b_pp. Long-context PP goes
through the pp_opt branch and is unrelated/unchanged.

Reported by @ikawrakow on PR 1852. Verified across mla={1,2,3} x
khad={on,off} x -ctk={q8_0,q4_0} on GLM-4.7-Flash IQ5_K and the
unsloth IQ4_XS variant ik used to reproduce.

* ggml_hadamard: accept F16 and quant sources; drop GGML_OP_DEQUANT_HADAMARD

Per @ikawrakow review on PR 1852: subsume the per-source-type dispatch
into the existing GGML_OP_HADAMARD instead of carrying a separate enum
entry, op constructor, and standalone files.

ggml_hadamard's API is unchanged from the call-site perspective. The
constructor's F32-only assertion is dropped; ggml_cuda_op_hadamard and
iqk_hadamard now dispatch internally:

  - F32 source: existing F32 butterfly (unchanged)
  - F16 source: dedicated kernel
  - q8_0 / q4_0 / q4_1 / q5_0 / q5_1 / q6_0 / iq4_nl: fused dequant +
    butterfly kernel (lifted from the deleted dequant_hadamard.cu)
  - CPU side composes traits.to_float with fast_ht

Net diff: -80 lines. Removes dequant_hadamard.{cu,cuh}, the enum entry,
op table rows, ggml_dequant_hadamard constructor, dispatch cases, and
the DEQUANT_HADAMARD supports_op block.

Verified clean build + TG smoke (mla=3 +khad q8 on GLM-4.7-Flash-IQ4_XS,
same coherent output as prior commit on feat/dequant-hadamard).

MLA TP prompt processing optimisation (#1841)
* MLA TP prompt processing optimisation

Adds a per-rank prompt-processing path to build_deepseek2_tp_attention
that materialises K/V from the compressed latent cache and runs a
standard flash_attn instead of the FlashMLA-3 absorb kernel the TP
attention currently uses for all batch sizes. Affects MLA archs under
-sm graph (DEEPSEEK2, GLM_DSA, MISTRAL4).

Gated on n_tokens >= 128 (set by caller) AND n_kv >= 1024. Below
either threshold the absorb path runs unchanged. Token generation
takes the absorb path; only prompt processing at non-trivial context
materialises.

A second piece pre-computes wk_b in a pp_opt-favouring orientation
(wk_b_pp: [kv_lora_rank, qk_nope, n_head]) at llm_prepare_mla time,
so the per-PP-call materialise can mul_mat against the latent cache
directly without an F16 cast + permute + ggml_cont on wk_b each call.
Path A (wkv_b in GGUF) and Path B (only wk_b/wv_b in GGUF) both
populate wk_b_pp through the standard per-rank replica setup.

Measured on 8x RTX 3090, -sm graph -mla 2 -fa on:

  DSV2.5 IQ2_XS         c=8k  ub=2048   PP +51% to +60%
  GLM-4.7-Flash IQ4_XS  c=32k ub=2048   PP -6% (PP@0) to +77% (PP@30720)
  GLM-5.1 IQ1_S q4_0    c=16k ub=2048   PP +5% to +9%

PPL parity within +/-0.2 noise (DSV2.5 bit-identical 5.3917, GLM-4.7
8.83 vs 8.96, GLM-5.1 6.96 vs 7.00). Token-generation throughput
unchanged within noise.

Compute buffer at init:
  DSV2.5         -54 MiB total       (allocator noise)
  GLM-4.7-Flash  +1042 MiB total     (~+173 MiB per non-output device)
  GLM-5.1        0                   (MoE intermediates dominate)

* MLA TP: respect mla=1 vs mla=3 distinction, rename attn_k_b_pp -> attn_kv_b

ikawrakow/ik_llama.cpp#1841 review feedback: the pp_opt path lost the
intended trade-off where mla=1 forgoes pp_opt to save VRAM and mla=3 pays
the wk_b_pp tensor cost for faster long-context PP.

- llm_prepare_mla second pass: gate wk_b_pp synthesis on mla > 1.
  Models that ship wk_b in their GGUF (mainline format) no longer
  allocate the pp_opt-favoring K weight under mla=1.
- llm_prepare_mla first pass (wk_b synthesis from wkv_b): keep
  unconditional under -sm graph. The wk_b_pp materialization here
  shares the wk_b_f32 intermediate with the wk_b synthesis above, and
  isolating just the wk_b_pp branch leaves the synthesized wk_b in a
  state that makes the absorb path produce inf on some quant combos
  (DSV2.5 IQ2_XS). Trade: the synthesized-wkv_b path still pays the
  wk_b_pp allocation under mla=1, but the bigger compute-buffer
  saving (no pp_opt branch at runtime) still applies.
- build_deepseek2 outer pp_opt: include cparams.mla_attn > 1 in the
  pp_opt definition itself, so mla=1 is bypassed throughout (TP and
  non-TP attention paths).
- build_deepseek2 tp pp_opt: require wk_b_pp present. Drop the dead
  runtime wk_b transpose fallback (unreachable now that wk_b_pp is
  guaranteed when tp_pp_opt fires).
- llama_kv_cache_init: have_wkv_b probe now treats wk_b_pp (attn_kv_b)
  as equivalent to wkv_b for the purposes of allowing mla>1 to stay
  put. Without this, -sm graph models that have wk_b/wv_b separately
  in the GGUF (no combined wkv_b) would silently downgrade to mla=1.
- Rename the synthesized tensor "attn_k_b_pp.weight" -> "attn_kv_b.weight"
  to match the mainline naming ik uses.

GLM-5.1 in particular benefits: its mla=3 PP improvement over mla=1 is
negligible on this arch (~0.4% in our sweeps), so users save the
runtime cost by sticking to mla=1.

MLA tensor parallelism under -sm graph (DEEPSEEK2/GLM_DSA/MISTRAL4) (#1821)
* MLA tensor parallelism under -sm graph (DEEPSEEK2/GLM_DSA/MISTRAL4)

Extends -sm graph (split-mode graph) to MLA-style attention across the
DEEPSEEK2, GLM_DSA, and MISTRAL4 architectures. Previously these archs
fell back to -sm layer regardless of the user's flag.

Implementation:
- Per-rank attention build in build_deepseek2_tp_attention with
  view-sliced FlashAttention, split-buffer output projection, and
  ggml_reduce across devices
- wk_b / wv_b absorbed weights replicated per device via materialize()
  in llm_prepare_mla (these can't live in a split buffer)
- KV cache replication path (replicated_k_l) for graph-mode TP
- distribute_mla_tensors_for_split_mode_graph routes attention/norm
  tensors into ctx_split; expert tensors stay per-layer
- Implements ggml_backend_cuda_split_buffer_get_tensor for the
  replicated / row-split / col-split inverse paths
- Early-reject guard in src/llama.cpp that auto-downgrades -sm graph
  to -sm layer (with a warning) when incompatible loader flags are set:
  -ncmoe, -cmoe, -ot, -rtr, -muge

New CLI flag:
- -gap | --graph-attn-precision <f16|f32>  (default f16)

See the PR description for the full validation matrix (3 archs x 2/4/8
GPU counts), perf numbers, VRAM accounting, and known limitations.

* Some tweaks

* materialize lambda: per-head split for graph-mode tp_replicate

7dd19e19 changed wk_b/wv_b distribution from mirror to per-head split
(split_dim=2) via prepare_split_tensors. That path only fires when
wk_b/wv_b are loaded from GGUF.

Models that store only wkv_b in GGUF derive wk_b/wv_b at load via
llm_prepare_mla, going through the materialize lambda, which was
untouched and still produced mirror replicas (split_dim=-1, full n_head
per device).

build_deepseek2_tp_attention now does mul_mat(wk_b_local, q_nope_perm)
without the prior view_3d slice, so a mirror replica passes an n_head
tensor where the kernel expects n_head_local. Result: silent SIGSEGV
right after model load.

Mirror logic in materialize is replaced with the same per-head split as
prepare_split_tensors: head_offsets derived from wo split, each rank
gets a tensor with ne[2]=n_head_local, data copied from the appropriate
source byte slice. Singular `computed` tensor keeps full metadata for
tensors_by_name lookups.

Tested: 8x3090, -sm graph -mla 3 -fa on now boots cleanly and
sweep-benches without crash. Log confirms new path: "Computed
blk.X.attn_k_b.weight ... split across N devices on dim=2".

* cleanup: indent fix + remove dead view_3d slicing and debug printf

- build_deepseek2.cpp: re-indent the self_attention block in
  build_deepseek2_layer_attention (lines 253-670). Block was at column 0
  inside a function body; now at the expected 4/8-space indent.
- build_deepseek2.cpp: drop the commented-out view_3d slicing and debug
  printfs left over after 7dd19e19's switch to direct mul_mat on
  per-rank wk_b_local / wv_b_local. Update the stale 'wk_b is
  replicated (split_dim=-1)' comment to match the new split_dim=2
  reality.
- ggml-cuda.cu: remove the leftover debug printf in
  ggml_backend_cuda_split_buffer_get_tensor.

No behavior change. Verified with a clean rebuild and DSV2.5 +
GLM-4.7-Flash sweep-bench runs.

* llm_load_tensors: gate incompatible-flag warning to MLA archs

The -ncmoe / -rtr / -muge / -ot warning under -sm graph currently fires
for all archs that support graph mode. That's an over-reach: the
incompatibility is specific to the MLA TP paths (DEEPSEEK2, GLM_DSA,
MISTRAL4) — Gemma4 graph mode existed pre-PR and works with those flags.
Gate the warning to MLA archs only.

Also refreshes two stale comments left over from the wk_b/wv_b
mirror -> per-head-split rewrite:
- src/llama.cpp llm_prepare_mla: "Replicate wk_b/wv_b ..." now reads
  "Per-head split wk_b/wv_b ..." to match what the materialize lambda
  actually does post-823a39e2.
- src/llama-load-tensors.cpp distribute_mla_tensors_for_split_mode_graph:
  drop the wkv_b row-split mention (wkv_b is no longer created under
  graph mode after 7dd19e19) and correct the wk_b/wv_b distribution
  description (per-head split, not per-device replicated).

server: defer recurrent-state reset to graph build (addresses #1696 review) (#1696)
ikawrakow asked the seq_rm zeroing be hoisted out of the per-cell loop and
preferably done as part of the compute graph. This rewrites the fix:

  - llama_kv_cache gets a pending_recurrent_reset bitmap, sized to
    qnext_state_slots and indexed by slot index.
  - llama_kv_cache_seq_rm only marks the bitmap; no CPU-side tensor
    writes, no work inside the per-cell loop.
  - delta_net::build_layer_attn_linear ORs the bitmap into the existing
    reset_state flag, so the in-graph ggml_scale(state, 0.0f) path that
    already handled batch.pos[0] == 0 now also handles slot reset.
  - build_qwen3next and build_qwen35 clear the bitmap after
    ggml_build_forward_expand, once per graph build.
  - llama_kv_cache_clear also drops the bitmap, since the full-buffer
    clear it already does makes any pending in-graph reset redundant.

Previous behavior is preserved (every recurrent layer column for the
released slot is zeroed before the next request reuses it), but the work
moves from the CPU into the compute graph, runs once per graph instead
of once per cell, and reuses the existing reset path referenced in the
review.

    fix: save/restore sampler state during speculative checkpoint

    When speculative decoding rejects draft tokens and restores the
    recurrent state checkpoint, the sampler (RNG, grammar, prev tokens)
    must also be restored to maintain consistency. Without this, the
    sampler state reflects the rejected draft tokens, leading to
    potential divergence.

    Uses common_sampler_clone() to snapshot the sampler before the
    speculative batch decode, and restores it on rejection.

server: fix ret=-3 on hybrid/recurrent prompt cache, and clear sticky stop flag (#1673)
Two related issues that manifest as 'llama_decode ret=-3' on hybrid
architectures (e.g. Qwen3.5/3.6 MoE, Qwen3-Next), matching the symptom
reported in #1576.

1) server_context::apply_checkpoint() was written around transformer KV
   semantics (pos_min / pos_max per-token window). For hybrid and pure
   recurrent models the per-token pos_min threshold does not apply: the
   recurrent state is a single snapshot, and the server-side checkpoint
   is a whole-prefix record. The old selector 'cur.pos_min < pos_min_thold'
   can succeed on a checkpoint whose pos_max is past the current n_past,
   and — more commonly — fall through to do_reset = true, which zeros
   slot.n_past / slot.n_past_prompt. Zeroing in-place while the recurrent
   state in the context is still populated makes the next decode batch
   disagree with the live state, returning ret=-3.

   This change gates the checkpoint path on
   llama_model_has_recurrent(llama_get_model(slot.ctx)):
   - selector uses pos_max <= slot.n_past && pos_max < pos_next
     (whole-prefix match, leaves at least one token to decode);
   - on miss, slot state is preserved rather than zeroed, letting
     update_slots() continue from the already-valid n_past_prompt;
   - the erase loop drops any checkpoint whose pos_max > pos_next,
     matching the rewind semantics for recurrent state.

   Transformer behavior is unchanged.

2) stop_internal_decode is a file-static global in src/llama.cpp, set by
   llama_decode_stop() (called on client disconnect) and polled inside
   the decode loop to bail out with ret=-3. The flag is only cleared on
   one conditional path in server_slot::release(), so a stop signal that
   arrives after the interrupted llama_decode() has already returned
   bleeds into the NEXT decode call and causes an immediate ret=-3 with
   no work performed. Clear it at the top of the public llama_decode()
   entry so the signal is scoped to the in-flight decode it was meant
   for.

Build-verified: llama-server with GGML_CUDA=ON, -DCMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES=86
(sm_86), IQK flash-attn + matmul enabled. No new APIs introduced —
llama_model_has_recurrent is already public and already used elsewhere in
server-context.cpp.

Closes #1576

common/json-schema: fix: handle non-capturing groups (?:...) in JSON schema pattern converter (#21124)

The regex-to-grammar converter in _visit_pattern() crashes with SIGSEGV
when a JSON schema "pattern" field contains a non-capturing group (?:...).

Root cause: when the parser sees '(' followed by '?', it pushes a warning
but does not advance past '?:'. The recursive transform() call then
interprets '?' as a quantifier and calls seq.back() on an empty vector,
causing undefined behavior.

This commonly occurs when serving OpenAI-compatible tool calls from
clients that include complex regex patterns in their JSON schemas (e.g.,
date validation patterns like ^(?:(?:\d\d[2468][048]|...)-02-29|...)$).

The fix:
- Skip '?:' after '(' to treat non-capturing groups as regular groups
- For unsupported syntax (?=, ?!, etc.), skip to matching ')' safely,
  handling escaped characters to avoid miscounting parenthesis depth
- Adjust the ')' unbalanced-parentheses check using direct char
  comparisons instead of substr
- Add test cases for non-capturing groups (C++ only, as the JS/Python
  implementations do not yet support this syntax)

jinja : handle empty expressions correctly (#20913)

* Reject empty computed member expressions before returning slices[0] from parse_member_expression_arguments().

* Treat empty computed member expressions with Jinja2 undefined semantics

Treat empty computed member expressions like `a[]` as undefined instead of
raising a parser error, to match Jinja2 behavior.

- return a noop expression for empty computed member arguments
- return undefined when a computed member key evaluates to undefined
- add Jinja tests covering `a[]|default('fallback')` and `a[] is undefined`

* Handle undefined computed member properties

Move undefined-property handling to the common member access path, and add a test covering `a[undefined] is undefined`.

* Use default undefined value in member access

Initialize val and then return it when property is undefined.

3. int() builtin on value_int_t (identity, needed for Reka Edge template)

* fix: escape invalid utf8 bytes when ensure_ascii=true

The json_ensure_ascii_preserving_format function does not correctly
handle an edge case where if UTF-8 parsing fails, it adds the non-ascii
character back to the output as a raw byte.

This commit fixes that by adding the unicode standard replacement
character \\ufffd to the output instead. This is the standard behavior
for various programming languages like Python, Rust, Go, etc.

common/gemma4 : handle parsing edge cases (#21760)

common: skip reasoning budget sampler when no budget is requested (#21870)

* common: skip reasoning budget sampler when no budget is requested

After I added thinking_start_tag / thinking_end_tag for gemma4 in #21697, the reasoning budget sampler gets unconditionally created even when no budget is configured (the default -1). The same applies to kimi_k2, lfm2, lfm2_5, and ministral_3 which also set these tags. The budget gets converted to INT_MAX, so the sampler never actually forces any tokens but still runs per-token checks (start tag matching in IDLE state, token-to-piece conversion + UTF-8 checks in COUNTING state).

More importantly, the mere existence of the sampler (non-null rbudget) disables backend sampling. Backend sampling lets the GPU select tokens directly, avoiding a full logits transfer from GPU to CPU every token. This could explain the 30% speed regression reported in #21784 (98 t/s to 70 t/s on Vulkan).

So I added a reasoning_budget_tokens >= 0 check to the sampler creation condition. When the budget is unlimited, the sampler is not created, backend sampling stays enabled, and no per-token overhead is added. When a budget is explicitly set (0, 128, 1024, etc.), the sampler is created and works as before.

* common: preserve rbudget when grammar is lazy

Following up on the review feedback on #21870: keep the reasoning budget sampler when grammar_lazy is true, so the thinking-block grammar suppression from #20970 still works when tools are in use. This way, we only skip the sampler when both no budget is set AND grammar is not lazy.
