mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 7b9167eaad feat(llama-cpp): serve Qwen3-TTS through the llama.cpp backend (#11392)
* fix(config): do not read a TTS speaker-encoder mmproj as vision support

Qwen3-TTS on llama-cpp ships an mmproj holding the speaker encoder and
code predictor. VisionSupported() treated any non-empty MMProj as proof
of image input, so every such model would be advertised as vision-capable.

* feat(llama-cpp): add TTS request option parsing helper

Validates text and speaker reference presence and strictly parses the
top_k / top_p per-request params, in a header with no llama.cpp or gRPC
dependencies so the standalone C++ unit test gate picks it up.

* fix(llama-cpp): range-check the TTS top_k and top_p request params

Format validation alone let NaN, infinity and out-of-range values through.
The consumer copies both values into the audio generation input
unconditionally and only guards its separate sampler assignment with
"> 0", a test NaN also fails, so a NaN reached llama.cpp with the guard
never firing. top_k must now be >= 0 and top_p must fall within 0.0 to 1.0
inclusive, with the bound written as a negated in-range test so NaN is
rejected rather than silently accepted.

Also cover the two checks the suite could not previously kill: the
whole-string check in the float parser and the int32 range check.

* chore(llama-cpp): bump pin to f9e832c10 and carry the TTS server task

Picks up ggml-org/llama.cpp#26254 (Qwen3-TTS via mtmd) and #26536 (the
short-input audio chunk fix). Adds 0002-add-server-task-type-tts.patch,
the server-side half of the still-draft #26603, so TTS runs through the
slot scheduler instead of racing it. Remove that patch when #26603 merges.

The patch is rebased on top of the score patch: its tokenize-switch hunk
collided with the SERVER_TASK_TYPE_SCORE case, and its lone SRV_WRN call
passes no variadic argument, which the macro cannot expand. The score
patch itself needed no refresh.

Also fixes fallout from the bump in grpc-server.cpp: upstream dropped the
per-slot n_ctx argument from server_schema::eval_llama_cmpl_schema. Only
the schema branch loses it, since forks predating the server-schema split
still expect the old argument list.

* feat(llama-cpp): implement the TTS and TTSStream RPCs

Both were declared in backend.proto but unimplemented. They now submit a
SERVER_TASK_TYPE_TTS task and drain the response reader, the same shape
PredictStream uses.

The streaming path emits a leading sample_rate message and then raw PCM,
because ModelTTSStream builds the WAV header itself; the non-streaming
path emits a complete WAV to the requested dst.

The streamed samples are converted from the pipeline's float32 to signed
16-bit first. MTMD_HELPER_GEN_AUDIO_OUTTYPE_PCM hands back floats, while
the header ModelTTSStream writes announces 16-bit samples, so shipping
the floats verbatim would decode as noise.

prepare.sh and CMakeLists.txt now stage tts_request_options.h alongside
the other grpc-server helpers, and register its standalone test with
ctest the way passthrough_options_test is registered.

* fix(llama-cpp): mask non-codec tokens for Qwen3-TTS generation

The Qwen3-TTS gen-audio pipeline maps a sampled backbone token to a
codebook row with an unchecked subtraction, in mtmd-helper-gen.cpp:

    inp.code0 = sampled - codec_0;

For ggml-org/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-Base-GGUF the vocab is 155008 tokens,
<|codec_0|> is 151936 and the codec codes end at 153983. The model's own
tokenizer.ggml.suppress_tokens holds 1023 ids covering 153984..155007,
every special above the codec range except <|codec_eos_token|> (154086)
which stays reachable as the stop token. Nothing masks the text range
0..151935, so the backbone can sample a text token at any step, the
subtraction goes negative, and ggml_compute_forward_get_rows aborts the
whole backend process on GGML_ASSERT(i01 >= 0 && i01 < ne01).

Complete the mask upstream started: bias every token below <|codec_0|>
to -INFINITY for TTS tasks so only codec codes and the codec EOS remain
reachable. The biases are appended to task.params.sampling.logit_bias,
which common_sampler_init already merges with the model's suppress
tokens into one llama_sampler_init_logit_bias, so no sampler is added to
the chain. Measured cost is 0.082 ms per sampled token and 1.16 MB, set
against a forward pass in the multi-millisecond range.

It lands in launch_slot_with_task rather than in a route handler so that
llama.cpp's own POST /tts and LocalAI's TTS/TTSStream RPCs are both
covered, and <|codec_0|> is resolved from the vocab rather than
hardcoded so a model without it is left alone.

This is reproducible with upstream's own llama-tts and no LocalAI code
loaded, aborting at frame 55 on Q4_K_M and frame 71 on Q8_0, so it is
neither a quantization artifact nor an artifact of the gRPC adapter.
Two further defects in the same draft pipeline still prevent end-to-end
audio; they are independent of this one and are recorded in the task
report for an upstream bug report.

* chore(llama-cpp): bump pin to 9de0fcf2b and drop the TTS codec mask

Upstream fixed the Qwen3-TTS abort in ggml-org/llama.cpp c8e03ce81
("mtmd/ggml: add ggml_build_forward_order", #26649), landed one hour
after the previous pin. ggml_build_forward_expand marks a tensor and all
its ancestors for compute, so using it as a pure ordering hint defeated
ggml_build_forward_select and made GEN_WAV calls execute the GEN_CODE
branch against a stale inp_code0, hitting the get_rows bound assert in
ggml_compute_forward_get_rows.

That single defect accounts for every abort seen on this model, so
0003-mask-non-codec-tokens-for-tts.patch is removed rather than rebased.
The mask changed the observed behavior, but it was perturbing a graph
ordering bug rather than fixing a sampling one: at the new pin the whole
path works without it. Keeping it would have meant carrying a 152k-entry
logit bias, and rebasing it on every pin bump, for no benefit.

Verified at 9de0fcf2b with only 0001 and 0002 applied, which both apply
clean with no fuzz and needed no rebase:

  non-streaming  HTTP 200, 410924 bytes, 8.56 s
                 RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM,
                 16 bit, mono 24000 Hz
  streaming      HTTP 200, 560684 bytes, 11.68 s, exactly one RIFF at
                 byte 0, same format, which also exercises the
                 float32-to-s16 conversion at runtime for the first time

Pristine unpatched llama-tts at the same pin now also completes, 130
frames to a valid WAV, where it aborted at frame 55 before.

* fix(llama-cpp): clear the TTS slot sequence between requests

Only the first TTS request in a backend process succeeded. Every later
one failed instantly, in about 0.13 s, with "TTS prompt processing
failed" from step_prompt, regardless of streaming or non-streaming and
regardless of the text. With LOCALAI_SINGLE_ACTIVE_BACKEND=true the
process is kept alive between requests, so a deployment would have
served exactly one utterance per backend start.

The cause is missing KV hygiene, not anything in the gRPC adapter. TTS
slots never enter the shared batch: pre_decode() returns early for them
and process_tts_slots() drives them instead, so they skip the
prompt-cache bookkeeping that clears a slot's sequence between requests.
Nothing in the gen-audio path makes up for it: mtmd_helper_gen_audio_reset
only clears host-side buffers, and the pipeline always decodes from
position 0 into the sequence identified by slot.id. So the second task
on a slot writes positions 0..N over the first task's tokens and
llama_decode fails.

Fix is one call to slot.prompt_clear(), the same helper the normal path
uses, in the SERVER_TASK_TYPE_TTS branch of launch_slot_with_task before
set_input. It goes into 0002 rather than a new patch file because it is
a defect in the code that patch introduces, and the header now records
it as ours so we know whether it still needs carrying if #26603 merges
without it.

Verified in one backend process, different text on every request:
three consecutive non-streaming requests, three consecutive streaming
requests, and an interleaved non-streaming, streaming, non-streaming,
streaming run. All ten returned HTTP 200 with
RIFF ... WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 24000 Hz, the streamed
ones carrying exactly one RIFF header at byte 0, and every output
measured as real speech rather than silence or a truncated fragment.

* feat(llama-cpp): expose max_frames for TTS requests

The Qwen3-TTS backbone does not always emit <|codec_eos_token|>, and
when it does not, generation runs to upstream's 512-frame n_predict
default. At the model's 12.5 Hz frame rate that is 40.96 s of audio,
which a short input can trigger: one request in this session produced
40.96 s for a ten-word sentence. prepareTTSTask hardcoded n_predict to
-1, so callers had no way to bound it.

Add a max_frames key alongside top_k and top_p, parsed with the same
strict whole-string parsing so a typo is an error rather than a silently
truncated value, and rejected with a field-naming message when negative.
0 keeps the existing sentinel convention and means unset, so a request
that omits it behaves exactly as before.

Named max_frames rather than n_predict because frames are what the
parameter means at a TTS endpoint: one frame is 0.08 s of audio.

The 512-frame default is deliberately unchanged. Lowering it would
truncate legitimately long inputs, which is a worse failure than an
occasionally overlong one.

Verified end to end on one text of thirty words:

  max_frames=25    HTTP 200,  96044 bytes,  2.00 s, exactly 25 frames
  max_frames=50    HTTP 200, 192044 bytes,  4.00 s, exactly 50 frames
  no max_frames    HTTP 200, 572204 bytes, 11.92 s, stopped at its own
                   codec EOS after 149 frames, unchanged behavior

  max_frames=-1    InvalidArgument "max_frames must be >= 0, got \"-1\""

* fix(llama-cpp): send the TTS sample rate up front, and tidy three review items

Four items from the Task 4 review.

Streaming first-byte latency. TTSStream sent the sample-rate reply only
once the first audio result arrived, and a chunk needs a whole 72-frame
window, roughly 5.8 s of audio and far longer in wall time on CPU. The
Go side blocks on that reply before it can emit the WAV header, so a
streaming client sat at zero bytes for the whole stretch. The rate is a
property of the loaded model and is available synchronously from
mtmd_gen_audio_get_info, so it now goes out immediately after post_task
and the rate_sent bookkeeping is gone. Measured on a warm model, first
byte drops from 30.48 s to 0.014 s, and the output is still a valid WAV
with exactly one RIFF header at byte 0.

Unchecked close. The non-streaming path ignored ofstream::close(), so a
failure that only surfaces on flush was reported as success while
leaving a truncated file at dst. It now returns INTERNAL like the other
write failures.

Wrong comment on set_lang. gen_audio::inp::get() already maps a stored
blank to nullptr, so our guard is behavior-preserving, not
behavior-fixing. The comment claimed otherwise; the code was right.

Repetition penalty. penalty_last_n = -1 is inert at this pin, because
llama_sampler_init_penalties clamps it with std::max(penalty_last_n, 0)
and then builds a disabled sampler, so the 1.05 penalty never applies.
Upstream's README attributes looping to a missing repeat_penalty, so it
was worth testing as a root-cause fix for the model running to the frame
cap. Dropping the line lets the sampling default of 64 apply, which was
confirmed in the sampler chain trace as penalty_last_n = 64 with
repeat_penalty = 1.050. Over 15 uncapped short requests each way it did
not help: 0 of 15 ran to the cap with the penalty inert, 1 of 15 with it
active. Both lines are therefore kept for parity with upstream's draft,
and a comment now records that the pair is inert and why, so the next
reader does not believe a penalty is applied. max_frames remains the way
to bound output.

turboquant and bonsai copy grpc-server.cpp into llama.cpp forks that do

* fix(config): keep a TTS speaker-encoder projector out of vision detection

Task 1 exempted a declared-TTS model's mmproj from VisionSupported, but the
first real gallery entry with an mmproj still came back vision-capable through
two paths the earlier fix did not close.

GuessUsecases has no FLAG_VISION branch, so it falls through to true for any
chat-ish model. That is not just a wrong answer at the call site:
syncKnownUsecasesFromString rewrites KnownUsecaseStrings from HasUsecases, and
the loader calls it more than once per config file, so the guessed FLAG_VISION
is written out and parsed back into KnownUsecases as if the operator had
declared it. Give GuessUsecases a FLAG_VISION branch that defers to the same
explicit signals VisionSupported uses.

Second, llama.cpp builds an mtmd context for the speaker-encoder projector and
reports its media marker on the first chat probe, which resurrected vision
after the model had been used once. Apply the same declared-TTS exemption to
MediaMarker that the mmproj check already had.

Verified against the qwen3-tts-llamacpp-q4 gallery entry: no vision capability
and no image input modality, before load, after a TTS request, and after a chat
probe.

* fix(config): register llama-cpp as a TTS and voice-cloning backend

The branch taught the llama-cpp backend to serve Qwen3-TTS and shipped two
gallery entries for it, but never told the capability table. llama-cpp still
declared only the text RPCs and usecases, so:

- VoiceCloningForModel returned nil at the capability check, before it ever
  reached the model's own tts.voice_cloning override, and /tts answered 400
  "selected model does not support reference-audio voice cloning" for any
  localai://voice-profiles/... voice. No model YAML could opt back in.
- GET /api/backends/usecases did not list tts for llama-cpp, so the gallery
  greyed out the TTS filter for the entries this branch adds.
- The React TTS page saw voice_cloning: null and kept both models out of the
  Voice Library.

Add the TTS RPCs and usecase, and the reference-audio contract.

The contract needs narrowing, because the per-backend switch in
VoiceCloningForModel ends in a permissive default: an unnarrowed entry would
have advertised reference-audio cloning on every GGUF chat model in the
gallery. Narrow on the declared TTS usecase rather than the model name. The
TTS checkpoints are the only llama-cpp models carrying known_usecases: [tts];
name matching would have to guess at third-party repacks, and "base", the
substring the neighbouring Qwen and vLLM cases key on, is a routine word in
text-model names. The check reads the declared bit directly instead of going
through HasUsecases, which falls through to GuessUsecases and would hand the
decision to a heuristic that never had a llama.cpp TTS model in mind.

DefaultUsecases stays [chat]: a bare GGUF served by llama.cpp is a chat model,
and both the gallery filter and the importer read that field.

* fix(gallery): declare what nemotron-3-nano-omni actually accepts

The entry is backend: vllm-omni with known_usecases: [chat, completion], no
mmproj and no media marker, so it used to report vision only through the
blanket GuessUsecases fallthrough that the vision branch in this branch
removed. Nemotron 3 Nano Omni is a multimodal understanding model: image,
video and audio in, text out. Declaring that is what the sibling
vllm-omni-qwen3-omni-30b already does.

known_usecases gains vision only. FLAG_VIDEO is video GENERATION, an output
modality, and this model generates none; video and audio input belong in
known_input_modalities, which is where AudioInputSupported and
VideoInputSupported read them from.

* fix(importers): import a Qwen3-TTS GGUF repo as TTS, not chat

The llama-cpp importer hardcodes known_usecases: [chat] and assigns any
mmproj-matching file as a vision projector, so ggml-org/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-
Base-GGUF imported as a chat model with vision. Both fields were wrong, and
the model was unreachable from /tts and from the Voice Library.

Filenames cannot fix this. A Qwen3-TTS repo has the exact shape of a vision
repo, one backbone GGUF plus one mmproj-*.gguf, so the projector's own header
is the only honest signal: mtmd writes clip.has_gen_audio_encoder for the
projectors it can drive as a speech pipeline and refuses to build one without
it. Probe the selected mmproj for that flag, reusing the range-fetch the MTP
detection already does, and declare tts when it is set. The mmproj assignment
then stops reading as vision on its own, since a declared-TTS model already
exempts its projector from vision detection.

The probe is best-effort like the MTP one: a network blip leaves the chat
default in place rather than failing the import.

Verified against the real artifacts on disk: the Qwen3-TTS projector reports
gen-audio, its backbone does not.

* fix(llama-cpp): stop non-TTS models crashing on the new pin

Two regressions, both hit every ordinary llama-cpp model and neither was
caught locally because every test on this branch loaded a TTS model.

The first is a null dereference. server_slot::tts_ctx::reset() called
mtmd_helper_gen_audio_reset() unconditionally, but the gen-audio pipeline
is only allocated for models carrying a gen-audio mmproj, and upstream's
implementation reads ctx->pipeline before null-checking anything. Since
server_slot::reset() runs during slot initialization for every model, any
non-TTS model segfaulted the backend the moment it loaded. Guard the call
on the is_supported() predicate already defined beside it, and keep the
plain field resets unconditional.

The second is unrelated to TTS and came in with the pin bump.
PredictOptions.Penalty is a bare proto float, so a caller that names no
repetition penalty sends 0 rather than omitting the field. Since
9de0fcf2b, common_sampler_init() rejects a non-positive penalty_repeat
outright because it would divide logits by zero, turning every such
request into "Failed to initialize samplers". Treat 0 as unset and leave
llama.cpp's own neutral default in place.

Verified with the same suite CI runs, which is what caught both:
tests/e2e-backends passes 6 of 6 including the load and predict specs
that were red. Qwen3-TTS still synthesises on both paths, 24 kHz mono
16-bit WAV with exactly one RIFF header on the streamed output.

Richard Palethorpe 49ef40a187 feat(classifier/VAD): support voice control on low power devices (#10804)
* feat(llama-cpp): route Score through the slot loop

Score previously bypassed the slot loop with a direct llama_decode: a
conflict guard aborted the whole process if scoring raced generation, the
config validator had to reject score alongside chat/completion/embeddings,
and every candidate re-decoded the full shared prompt.

Add SERVER_TASK_TYPE_SCORE to the (patched) upstream server so score tasks
are scheduled like any other slot work: generation and scoring serialize
naturally, the shared prompt is decoded once per call, and the slot's
prompt cache carries the conversation prefix across calls. Context
checkpoints at the score boundary and at the cache-divergence point keep
SWA/hybrid/recurrent models (e.g. LFM2.5) from re-prefilling the whole
prompt per candidate: warm-turn scoring on a 6-option set drops from ~8s
to ~0.5s on a desktop CPU.

The conflict guard and the validation split are removed; declaring score
with generation usecases on one config is now supported and shares the
slot cache.

* feat(realtime): classifier wire types and pipeline config

Wire types and YAML config for realtime classifier mode: sessions carry a

localai.classifier.result server event reports the full score distribution

* feat(realtime): classifier response flow

Classifier-mode responses: instead of autoregressive generation, each user
turn is prefill-scored against the option list (router.ScoreClassifier
prompt/candidate shapes over the Score primitive) and the winning option's
canned reply and tool call are emitted through the existing response
machinery. Below-threshold turns take the configured fallback (none /
canned reply / generate); empty transcripts and unaddressed turns (wake
word not mentioned) skip scoring entirely. The scoring probe defaults to
the latest user message only — small scorers echo canned replies from
prior turns back as the top option otherwise.

Built for hardware that can afford prompt processing but not decode: with
slot-based Score the option list stays KV-cached across turns, so a turn
costs roughly one forward pass over the new words.

session_update_error events now carry the validation cause instead of a
generic message.

* fix(realtime): bound the VAD tick's scan window and buffer retention

The VAD tick loop re-scanned the entire input buffer every 300ms and only
trimmed it on zero-segment ticks or commits. Audio that keeps producing
segments without a committing pause (steady noise a mic pipeline lets
through, music, continuous speech) grew the buffer toward the 100MB cap
with each tick rescanning all of it — O(n^2), measured at ~3.3ms of silero
per buffered second: past ~90s retained, ticks run back to back and pin
~4 cores until the stream stops.

Silero's recurrent state only carries a few hundred ms of context, so
rescanning old audio buys nothing. Clip the slice handed to the VAD to the
largest silence the commit test can need to measure (server_vad silence
window or the semantic eagerness fallback) plus a warm-up margin, and
rebase the returned segment times so every downstream consumer keeps
whole-buffer coordinates. An open turn whose clipped window is all silence
now commits (the silence outran the window) instead of being discarded as
no-speech. Independently, retain at most 90s of raw buffer, rebasing the
live-feed and EOU cursors on trim — this also bounds the previously
unbounded VAD-error path. Turn boundaries are otherwise unchanged: no
forced commits, no new coordinator states.

pipeline.turn_detection.vad_window_sec can widen the scan window; values
below the automatic floor are ignored. The tick body is extracted into

* fix(backend): let per-model threads override the global default

ModelOptions overrode a set per-model threads value with the app-level
--threads whenever the latter was non-zero — and WithThreads defaults it
to the physical core count, so it always was. The YAML threads: knob has
been dead config: a tiny VAD model could never opt down from the global
pool size.

SetDefaults already fills an unset per-model value from the app config,
which is the intended precedence; resolve threads through a helper that
honors it (explicit threads: 0 still means unset).

* chore(gallery): single-thread the silero VAD

Silero is a ~2MB recurrent model with no exploitable graph parallelism:
measured per-call latency is identical at 1 and 10 ORT threads, while
every extra pool thread just spin-waits between the realtime loop's
frequent tiny inferences.

* perf(llama-cpp): score all candidates in one batched decode

One scoring call is now a single SERVER_TASK_TYPE_SCORE task: the slot
decodes the shared prefix (prompt + longest common candidate token
prefix) once, then forks one sequence per candidate off it
(metadata-only for the unified KV cache, copy-on-write for recurrent
state) and decodes every candidate's unique tail in one llama_decode.
Previously each candidate was its own task that restored the boundary
checkpoint and re-decoded its full tail sequentially, paying
per-candidate task and decode overhead.

The context reserves SERVER_SCORE_FORK_SEQS extra sequence ids (and
recurrent-state cells) beyond the parallel slots via the new
common_params::n_seq_score_forks. Forking requires the unified KV cache
(already this backend's default) since per-sequence streams would shrink
n_ctx_seq; an explicit kv_unified:false disables forking and Score calls
that need it fail cleanly. Candidates beyond the fork/output budget
decode in successive chunks.

Wire contract and scores are unchanged: per-token logprobs are stitched
from the shared region and the forked tails. Verified bitwise
deterministic call-to-call and independent of candidate order (no
cross-fork leakage via equal-length candidate swap); ranking matches the
per-candidate implementation on the drone battery (winner softmax
0.99996 vs 0.99997), and >16-candidate chunking, prefix-of-another and
empty candidates all pass.

Measured on a desktop CPU: warm /api/score calls 0.52s -> 0.23s; warm
realtime classifier turns 196-303ms. The 9-candidate drone turn decodes
~17 unique tail tokens in one batch instead of nine sequential ~220ms
checkpoint-restore tasks.

the args into the stage and run apt-mirror.sh (already in the build

* feat(realtime): classifier argument slots via constrained completion

Hybrid classify-then-complete: a classifier option's canned tool call can
declare typed argument slots (number | enum | string, with defaults and
prompt hints) referenced as "{{name}}" in the arguments template. When
the option wins, the slots are filled by a short grammar-constrained
completion that continues the exact scoring prompt — rendered by the same
cached ScoreClassifier, so the llama.cpp prompt cache is already warm —
with the chosen route JSON re-opened at the first slot field. A GBNF
grammar pins the field skeleton and frees only the values; temperature 0,
a couple dozen tokens at most (~300ms on a desktop CPU for two slots).

Slot declarations and hints ride the option descriptions in the shared
system prompt, informing scoring and the fill alike at no per-turn token
cost. The localai.classifier.result event carries the final arguments and
a fill_latency_ms. On inference failure the slots' defaults apply; a slot
without a default fails the response (or falls through with
fallback.mode: generate). Slot filling requires completion alongside
score in the scoring model's known_usecases.

Verified end-to-end on the Pi drone demo: "fly forward three meters" in
distance mode classifies forward and infers {"distance": 3, "units":
"meters"} in ~310ms, and the drone flies exactly 3 units.

* feat(realtime): splice filled slot values into classifier replies

A classifier option's spoken reply can now reference its tool's argument
slots ("Going forward {{distance}} {{units}}."): the values inferred by
the slot-fill completion — or the recovery defaults — are spliced into
the reply as plain text before it is emitted, so what the assistant says
confirms what it actually inferred. Placeholders without a value stay
literal, and options without slots are untouched.

FillToolArguments now returns the raw slot values alongside the spliced
arguments JSON to make the reply templating possible.

* feat(realtime): prewarm the classifier scoring prompt on registration

Swapping a session's classifier option list (a voice-switched command
mode, for instance) made the next turns pay a full re-prefill of the new
option-list prompt — measured 2.4s vs 0.3s warm on a desktop CPU, and
worse: on hybrid-memory models like LFM2.5, whose state cannot be
partially rewound (llama.cpp can only restore checkpoints), *every*
probe change re-prefilled from scratch whenever the last checkpoint
missed the probe boundary, so even same-list turns intermittently cost
full prefills.

Registering an option list (pipeline seed or session.update) now fires a
best-effort background prewarm: two throwaway scores with distinct
probes. The first prefills the new option-list prompt; the second,
diverging exactly where per-turn probe text starts, plants the backend's
rewind point (KV checkpoint) at the stable-prefix boundary that every
real turn reuses. The prewarm hides behind the canned mode-switch reply
— by the time it finishes speaking, the cache is warm. Idempotent per
option set, detached from the registering request's lifetime.

Measured on the drone demo (LFM2.5-1.2B, desktop CPU): first turn after
a mode switch 2374ms -> 340ms; intermittent same-list full prefills
(1.3-2.1s) all -> under 0.5s. For clients that swap lists frequently,
options: [parallel:2] on the scoring model additionally keeps one slot
per list via prefix-similarity routing (+26MB RSS, unified KV).

* perf(llama-cpp): checkpoint scoring at the caller-declared stable prefix

Hybrid-memory models (LFM2.5 shortconv, Qwen3.5 deltanet — where new
small models are headed) cannot rewind their state, so any prompt-cache
reuse that needs a rewind falls back to a full re-prefill. For classifier
scoring that meant every probe change re-processed the whole option-list
prompt: the server's checkpoints were placed reactively (at wherever the
previous task happened to diverge), so a checkpoint past the next
divergence was erased rather than restored — measured as intermittent
2-10s turns on prompts with a 95%+ common prefix.

The classifier now computes the probe-invariant prompt prefix once (the
byte-wise common prefix of two synthetic probe renders) and declares its
length with every Score request; the server maps it to a token boundary
and forces a KV checkpoint exactly there on each score prefill. That
checkpoint sits at or before every future divergence under the same
option list, so it always survives and always restores — repeat scoring
costs probe+candidates regardless of how the probe changes.

Also:
- prewarm reruns on every option-list registration instead of memoizing
  per list: with boundary checkpoints a redundant rewarm costs two
  probe-sized decodes, while skipping one after a slot eviction (three
  lists sharing fewer slots evict in LRU cascades) silently moves a full
  re-prefill onto the user's next turn
- new llama.cpp backend option rs_seq:N exposes bounded recurrent-state
  rollback outside speculative decoding; measured impractical for
  deltanet-scale states (65GB for 64 snapshots on Qwen3.5-4B) but cheap
  insurance for small-state models
- docs: the multi-list recipe (parallel:N + sps:0.5 — the default slot
  similarity threshold funnels distinct lists onto one slot)

Measured on the drone demo (LFM2.5-1.2B scorer, desktop CPU), steady
state: every turn 285-421ms including mode switches, vs 2.4s post-switch
and intermittent 1.3-2.9s re-prefills before.

mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 0a8a7fbbb4 chore(llama-cpp): bump llama.cpp and adapt to the load-mode refactor (#11140)
Bump LLAMA_VERSION to 0d47ea7427463093e69128bf2c2f9cd06b3ee5b3 (73 commits
touching common/, src/ and tools/server/). Two upstream changes break the
backend:

* ggml-org/llama.cpp#20834 folded common_params::use_mmap / use_mlock /
  use_direct_io into a single `load_mode` enum. LocalAI still exposes the three
  as independent settings (`mmap`, `mmlock`, and the `direct_io` option), so
  params_parse folds them once all three have been read, keeping the precedence
  the separate booleans had: direct I/O bypasses the page cache, mlock implies
  mmap, everything off is a plain buffered read. turboquant and bonsai compile
  this same grpc-server.cpp against forks that predate the refactor, so
  prepare.sh probes the checkout for LLAMA_LOAD_MODE_MMAP and generates
  llama_compat.h with LOCALAI_LEGACY_LOAD_MODE set accordingly. Probing beats a
  per-fork build flag here because the fork flavor targets disagree on whether
  they forward CMAKE_ARGS or EXTRA_CMAKE_ARGS, and it heals itself once a fork
  rebases past the refactor.

* The MiniMax M3 patch no longer applies. Upstream merged the model half of
  llama.cpp#24523 (LLM_ARCH_MINIMAX_M3, src/models/minimax-m3.cpp, the gguf-py
  constants and conversion/minimax.py) but not the chat half, so the patch is
  re-cut to carry only the common/chat.cpp template detection and PEG parser,
  rebased onto the new pin and onto the thinking_end_tag -> thinking_end_tags
  rename. Dropping it wholesale (as #11008 did, reverted in #11136) would have
  silently regressed MiniMax M3 tool calling and thinking.

Verified with a CPU docker build of the backend plus LoadModel and Predict
against a real GGUF over gRPC in all four load modes.

Nandana Dileep b5e4413eab feat: add MiniMax-M3 model support (#10837)
Adds inference parameter defaults for the minimax-m3 model family and
includes a vendored patch of upstream llama.cpp PR #24523 to recognize
the minimax-m3 architecture. Once the upstream PR merges, the patch can
be removed and LLAMA_VERSION bumped normally.

Changes:
- backend/cpp/llama-cpp/patches/0001-add-minimax-m3-support.patch:
  vendored patch from ggml-org/llama.cpp#24523 (Preliminary MiniMax-M3
  support). Applied by prepare.sh during the build; keeps the pinned
  LLAMA_VERSION pointing at the latest upstream tag.
- core/config/inference_defaults.json: add minimax-m3 family entry
  (temperature=1.0, top_p=0.95, top_k=40, min_p=0.01,
  repeat_penalty=1.0, matching the existing minimax defaults) and
  register it in the patterns list before the shorter minimax-m2.7
  entry for correct longest-match-first ordering.

Upstream: depends on ggml-org/llama.cpp#24523
