CANN: handle in-place ROPE on non-contiguous f32 tensors (#20274)
RotaryPositionEmbedding on CANN fails when src and dst share the same
non-contiguous buffer (inplace + view), because the operator overwrites
source data before it is fully read.
Add a branch that detects this case and uses contiguous temporary
buffers: copy src to temp, run ROPE into another temp, then copy back
to the non-contiguous dst. Fixes 20 failing ROPE tests (f32, v=1,
inplace=1).

CANN: support flash attention for head dim not multiple of 16, fix ALiBi slope offset (#20031)
- Allow FLASH_ATTN_EXT when head dimension D is not a multiple of 16 by
padding Q/K/V to D_padded = GGML_PAD(D, 16), running FusedInferAttentionScoreV2,
then slicing the output back to D (ggml-cann.cpp + aclnn_ops.cpp).
- Fix aclnn_get_slope second-part offset: use ggml_type_size(dtype) instead of
sizeof(float) so ALiBi slopes are correct when dtype is F16 (e.g. GQA with
48 heads); fixes buffer overflow and large numerical errors in those cases.
Add element-wise unary ops needed by Qwen 3.5's DeltaNet linear
attention layers. These ops follow the existing unary-ops pattern
with VTCM DMA double-buffering.
- neg: negate via scale by -1.0
- exp: uses existing hvx_exp_f32 HVX intrinsics
- sigmoid: uses existing hvx_sigmoid_f32_aa HVX intrinsics
- softplus: log(1 + exp(x)) scalar fallback
- CONT reuses the existing CPY infrastructure since making a tensor
contiguous is equivalent to a same-type copy.
- REPEAT implements tiled memory copy with multi-threaded execution via
the worker pool, supporting f32 and f16 types. The kernel parallelizes
across output rows and uses memcpy for each tile.

kleidiai : fix MUL_MAT support for batched (3D) inputs (#20620)
* kleidiai : fix MUL_MAT support for batched (3D) inputs
The supports_op() check incorrectly rejected MUL_MAT operations with 3D
inputs (ne[2] > 1), but the actual compute_forward_qx() implementation
handles batched inputs correctly via a loop over ne12.
This caused models with Q4_0/Q8_0 weights to crash during graph scheduling
when n_seq_max > 1, because weights were placed in KLEIDIAI buffers during
loading (tested with 2D inputs) but the runtime used 3D inputs.
Also relax the buffer check to allow supports_op() to be called during
weight loading when src[0]->buffer is NULL.
Fixes #20608
* Kleidiai support_ops should only return true for 3D inputs, not also 4D

Fix model selector locked to first loaded model with multiple models (#20580)
* webui: fix model selector being locked to first loaded model
When multiple models are loaded, the auto-select effect would re-fire
on every loadedModelIds change, overriding the user's manual model
selection. Guard with selectedModelId so auto-select only kicks in
when no model is chosen yet.
On AMD APU/iGPU devices (unified memory architecture), hipMemAdviseSetCoarseGrain
returns hipErrorInvalidValue because the hint is not applicable to UMA systems.
The previous CUDA_CHECK() call treated this as a fatal error, causing crashes on
APU systems such as AMD Strix Halo (gfx1151).
Fix: treat hipMemAdviseSetCoarseGrain as an optional performance hint - call it
without error checking and clear any resulting error with hipGetLastError().
Also add pre-allocation debug logging (GGML_LOG_DEBUG) to help diagnose memory
issues on APU systems, and store totalGlobalMem in device info.
Context: AMD APUs on Windows are affected by a ROCm runtime bug that limits
hipMallocManaged to ~64GB regardless of available system RAM. A fix has been
submitted upstream: https://github.com/ROCm/rocm-systems/pull/4077

Previous commit changed the repacking to use even:odd (0:1,2:3,..) packing
instead of the original (0:128,1:129,...) packing in order to fix tail corruption.
Since the mm kernels already deal with partial tails we can use even:odd

This avoid performance penalty of having to shuffle to zip the elements
in the common case.

graph : remove redundant GDN state transposes (#20443)
* ggml : transpose fused GDN state access for coalesced memory reads (#20436)
The fused Gated Delta Net kernel accessed the [S_v, S_v] state matrix
column-wise on row-major storage, causing strided reads (stride S_v =
128 floats = 512 bytes) that waste GPU cache bandwidth. This produced a
39% regression on Qwen3.5-9B (Metal, M4 Max) compared to the unfused
path.
Transpose the state indexing so threads read contiguously:
- Metal: s_ptr[is*S_v] -> s_ptr[is] (stride 1 vs S_v)
- CUDA: curr_state[i*S_v+col] -> curr_state[col*S_v+i] (coalesced)
- CPU: restructured loops for row-wise transposed access
Also add --fused-gdn [on|off|auto] CLI flag (mirrors --flash-attn) so
users can control fused GDN independently of auto-detection.
All GATED_DELTA_NET backend-ops tests pass.

The chunked fused Gated Delta Net detection in sched_reserve() calls
graph_reserve(16*n_seqs, n_seqs, n_outputs, ...) where n_outputs = n_seqs.
This creates a dimension mismatch in build_pooling() for embedding models
with mean/rank pooling: build_inp_mean() creates a tensor with shape
[n_tokens=16*n_seqs, ...] while t_embd is reduced to [n_outputs=n_seqs, ...]
via out_ids, causing ggml_mul_mat to assert on ggml_can_mul_mat(a, b).
Fix: pass n_tokens as n_outputs in the chunked GDN graph reservation,
matching the pattern used by the pp/tg worst-case reservations.

Same class of bug as #12517, fixed by #12545.

This commit renames the the function `mtmd_get_audio_bitrate` to
`mtmd_get_audio_sample_rate` to better reflect its purpose.
The motivation for this is that the function currently returns the audio
sample rate, not the bitrate (sample_rate × bit_depth × channels), and
that is how it is used in the code as well.
This is a breaking change, but I believe mtmd is still in
experimental/development phase so it might be alright to simply rename.
