llama.cpp b9781 Release Expands Platform Support
The latest b9781 release of llama.cpp continues its trend of broadening platform compatibility, though without major new features. Notably, the release includes support for ROCm 7.2 on Ubuntu x64, which is significant for AMD GPU users seeking alternatives to NVIDIA's CUDA. While KleidiAI support for macOS Apple Silicon is disabled, the release still covers a wide array of platforms, including Windows and openEuler. This update reinforces llama.cpp's position as a versatile inference runtime, though it remains focused on platform expansion rather than introducing new model architectures.
