llama.cpp b9590 Release Fixes JSON Schema Handling

The latest b9590 release of llama.cpp addresses a critical issue where the LFM2 template handler was ignoring the json_schema from response_format, focusing solely on tool-calling grammar. This update ensures more robust handling of JSON schemas, which is crucial for developers relying on precise data formatting. The release also includes a variety of platform-specific builds, though some features like KleidiAI on macOS and SYCL on Windows remain disabled. This update is a step forward in refining the tool's functionality, particularly for those working with complex data structures.

llama.cpp b9591 Release Enhances MTP Efficiency

The b9591 release of llama.cpp brings notable improvements to Multi-Task Processing (MTP) by removing padding and optimizing data handling. The update refines the ggml_gated_delta_net function, which now only requires the initial recurrent state and uses a snapshot count as an operational parameter, enhancing processing efficiency. These changes are implemented across all backends, addressing previous review comments and fixing CI build errors. With support for diverse hardware configurations, including macOS Apple Silicon, ROCm 7.2 on Ubuntu, and CUDA 12 and 13 on Windows, this release is a significant step forward for developers seeking improved performance and reliability.
