llama.cpp for SYCL

Background

SYCL is a higher-level programming model to improve programming productivity on various hardware accelerators—such as CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs. It is a single-source embedded domain-specific language based on pure C++17.

oneAPI is a specification that is open and standards-based, supporting multiple architecture types including but not limited to GPU, CPU, and FPGA. The spec has both direct programming and API-based programming paradigms.

Intel uses the SYCL as direct programming language to support CPU, GPUs and FPGAs.

To avoid to re-invent the wheel, this code refer other code paths in llama.cpp (like OpenBLAS, cuBLAS, CLBlast). We use a open-source tool SYCLomatic (Commercial release Intel® DPC++ Compatibility Tool) migrate to SYCL.

The llama.cpp for SYCL is used to support Intel GPUs.

For Intel CPU, recommend to use llama.cpp for X86 (Intel MKL building).

OS

OS Status Verified
Linux Support Ubuntu 22.04, Fedora Silverblue 39
Windows Support Windows 11

Intel GPU

Verified

Intel GPU Status Verified Model
Intel Data Center Max Series Support Max 1550
Intel Data Center Flex Series Support Flex 170
Intel Arc Series Support Arc 770, 730M
Intel built-in Arc GPU Support built-in Arc GPU in Meteor Lake
Intel iGPU Support iGPU in i5-1250P, i7-1260P, i7-1165G7

Note: If the EUs (Execution Unit) in iGPU is less than 80, the inference speed will be too slow to use.

Memory

The memory is a limitation to run LLM on GPUs.

When run llama.cpp, there is print log to show the applied memory on GPU. You could know how much memory to be used in your case. Like llm_load_tensors: buffer size = 3577.56 MiB.

For iGPU, please make sure the shared memory from host memory is enough. For llama-2-7b.Q4_0, recommend the host memory is 8GB+.

For dGPU, please make sure the device memory is enough. For llama-2-7b.Q4_0, recommend the device memory is 4GB+.

Nvidia GPU

oneMKL

The current oneMKL release does not contain the oneMKL cuBlas backend. As a result for Nvidia GPU's oneMKL must be built from source.

git clone https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneMKL
cd oneMKL
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G Ninja .. -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icx -DENABLE_MKLGPU_BACKEND=OFF -DENABLE_MKLCPU_BACKEND=OFF -DENABLE_CUBLAS_BACKEND=ON
ninja
// Add paths as necessary

Docker

Note:

  • Only docker on Linux is tested. Docker on WSL may not work.
  • You may need to install Intel GPU driver on the host machine (See the Linux section to know how to do that)

Build the image

You can choose between F16 and F32 build. F16 is faster for long-prompt inference.

# For F16:
#docker build -t llama-cpp-sycl --build-arg="LLAMA_SYCL_F16=ON" -f .devops/main-intel.Dockerfile .

# Or, for F32:
docker build -t llama-cpp-sycl -f .devops/main-intel.Dockerfile .

# Note: you can also use the ".devops/main-server.Dockerfile", which compiles the "server" example

Run

# Firstly, find all the DRI cards:
ls -la /dev/dri
# Then, pick the card that you want to use.

# For example with "/dev/dri/card1"
docker run -it --rm -v "$(pwd):/app:Z" --device /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128 --device /dev/dri/card1:/dev/dri/card1 llama-cpp-sycl -m "/app/models/YOUR_MODEL_FILE" -p "Building a website can be done in 10 simple steps:" -n 400 -e -ngl 33

Linux

Setup Environment

  1. Install Intel GPU driver.

a. Please install Intel GPU driver by official guide: Install GPU Drivers.

Note: for iGPU, please install the client GPU driver.

b. Add user to group: video, render.

sudo usermod -aG render username
sudo usermod -aG video username

Note: re-login to enable it.

c. Check

sudo apt install clinfo
sudo clinfo -l

Output (example):

Platform #0: Intel(R) OpenCL Graphics
 `-- Device #0: Intel(R) Arc(TM) A770 Graphics


Platform #0: Intel(R) OpenCL HD Graphics
 `-- Device #0: Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics [0x9a49]
  1. Install Intel® oneAPI Base toolkit.

a. Please follow the procedure in Get the Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit .

Recommend to install to default folder: /opt/intel/oneapi.

Following guide use the default folder as example. If you use other folder, please modify the following guide info with your folder.

b. Check

source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh

sycl-ls

There should be one or more level-zero devices. Please confirm that at least one GPU is present, like [ext_oneapi_level_zero:gpu:0].

Output (example):

[opencl:acc:0] Intel(R) FPGA Emulation Platform for OpenCL(TM), Intel(R) FPGA Emulation Device OpenCL 1.2  [2023.16.10.0.17_160000]

  1. Build locally:

Note:

  • You can choose between F16 and F32 build. F16 is faster for long-prompt inference.
  • By default, it will build for all binary files. It will take more time. To reduce the time, we recommend to build for example/main only.
mkdir -p build
cd build
source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh

# For FP16:
#cmake .. -DLLAMA_SYCL=ON -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icx -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx -DLLAMA_SYCL_F16=ON

# Or, for FP32:
cmake .. -DLLAMA_SYCL=ON -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icx -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx

# For Nvidia GPUs
cmake .. -DLLAMA_SYCL=ON -DLLAMA_SYCL_TARGET=NVIDIA -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icx -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx

# Build example/main only
#cmake --build . --config Release --target main

# Or, build all binary
cmake --build . --config Release -v

cd ..

or

./examples/sycl/build.sh

Run

  1. Put model file to folder models

You could download llama-2-7b.Q4_0.gguf as example.

  1. Enable oneAPI running environment
source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh
  1. List device ID

Run without parameter:

./build/bin/ls-sycl-device

# or running the "main" executable and look at the output log:

./build/bin/main

Check the ID in startup log, like:

found 4 SYCL devices:
  Device 0: Intel(R) Arc(TM) A770 Graphics,	compute capability 1.3,
    max compute_units 512,	max work group size 1024,	max sub group size 32,	global mem size 16225243136
  Device 1: Intel(R) FPGA Emulation Device,	compute capability 1.2,
    max compute_units 24,	max work group size 67108864,	max sub group size 64,	global mem size 67065057280
  Device 2: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700K,	compute capability 3.0,
    max compute_units 24,	max work group size 8192,	max sub group size 64,	global mem size 67065057280
  Device 3: Intel(R) Arc(TM) A770 Graphics,	compute capability 3.0,
    max compute_units 512,	max work group size 1024,	max sub group size 32,	global mem size 16225243136

Attribute Note
compute capability 1.3 Level-zero running time, recommended
compute capability 3.0 OpenCL running time, slower than level-zero in most cases
  1. Set device ID and execute llama.cpp

Set device ID = 0 by GGML_SYCL_DEVICE=0

GGML_SYCL_DEVICE=0 ./build/bin/main -m models/llama-2-7b.Q4_0.gguf -p "Building a website can be done in 10 simple steps:" -n 400 -e -ngl 33

or run by script:

./examples/sycl/run_llama2.sh

Note:

  • By default, mmap is used to read model file. In some cases, it leads to the hang issue. Recommend to use parameter --no-mmap to disable mmap() to skip this issue.
  1. Check the device ID in output

Like:

Using device **0** (Intel(R) Arc(TM) A770 Graphics) as main device

Environment Variable

Build

Name Value Function
LLAMA_SYCL ON (mandatory) Enable build with SYCL code path.
For FP32/FP16, LLAMA_SYCL=ON is mandatory.
LLAMA_SYCL_F16 ON (optional) Enable FP16 build with SYCL code path. Faster for long-prompt inference.
For FP32, not set it.
CMAKE_C_COMPILER icx Use icx compiler for SYCL code path
CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER icpx (Linux), icx (Windows) use icpx/icx for SYCL code path

Running

Name Value Function
GGML_SYCL_DEVICE 0 (default) or 1 Set the device id used. Check the device ids by default running output
GGML_SYCL_DEBUG 0 (default) or 1 Enable log function by macro: GGML_SYCL_DEBUG
ZES_ENABLE_SYSMAN 0 (default) or 1 Support to get free memory of GPU by sycl::aspect::ext_intel_free_memory.
Recommended to use when --split-mode = layer

Known Issue

  • Hang during startup

    llama.cpp use mmap as default way to read model file and copy to GPU. In some system, memcpy will be abnormal and block.

    Solution: add --no-mmap or --mmap 0.

  • Split-mode: [row] is not supported

    It's on developing.

Q&A

  • Error: error while loading shared libraries: libsycl.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

    Miss to enable oneAPI running environment.

    Install oneAPI base toolkit and enable it by: source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh.

  • In Windows, no result, not error.

    Miss to enable oneAPI running environment.

  • Meet compile error.

    Remove folder build and try again.

  • I can not see [ext_oneapi_level_zero:gpu:0] afer install GPU driver in Linux.

    Please run sudo sycl-ls.

    If you see it in result, please add video/render group to your ID:

    sudo usermod -aG render username
    sudo usermod -aG video username
    

    Then relogin.

    If you do not see it, please check the installation GPU steps again.

Todo

  • Support multiple cards.
