Static shapes:
- get_graph_input_shape() left the s_copy / s_copy-leaf inputs dynamic
([1,1,1,-1]) even in static mode, which propagated a dynamic slot dim through
GET_ROWS into the conv/GDN state, the state reshapes and the GDN output.
- With -np 1 the s_copy defrag remainder gathers zero rows; short-circuit that
CPY to the untouched cache instead of emitting a degenerate Slice/Concat, and
skip binding its zero-byte ggml tensor as an output (the dynamic path already
did the latter, the static path wrote the full cache over a 0-byte buffer).
Token-count independence:
- In static mode the compiled model's token count is the prefill chunk size or
1, not the captured cgraph's. Offsets derived from the captured count were
therefore wrong. Anchor the GDN state slice at the end of the packed
[attn | state] output and drop the rs_src_begin runtime inputs, and make
VIEWs over the GDN output / conv_input pass through so the consumer does the
slicing.
- CONT could not identify its token axis when the graph was captured with a
single token (every trailing dim has the same stride and size 1) and baked
the captured shape into the prefill model.
Chunked prefill:
- The last chunk is padded with fabricated tokens. Attention masks them, but
the recurrent path folded them into cache_r/cache_s permanently. Add a
chunk_valid_len runtime input, use it to zero g and beta for padded steps
(making the recurrence an exact identity) and to end the conv snapshot window
at the last valid token, and disable the recurrent-cache reset after the
first chunk so earlier chunks are not wiped.
- get_is_prefill() and the chunk loop bound read inp_pos->ne[0] directly, but
IMROPE stacks 4 position planes, so every decode step was run through the
padded prefill model and the loop ran extra out-of-bounds chunks.
cache_rs_reset_idx/len now stay runtime Parameters in static mode, since
can_reuse_statically() does not invalidate the cached model on ComputeParams
changes. Add GGML_OPENVINO_FORCE_STATIC to exercise the static path on CPU.
* Update to OpenVINO 2026.3.1
* ggml-openvino: forward NPU compilation mode parameters
Add GGML_OPENVINO_NPU_COMPILE_CONFIG to the backend's cached environment so callers can configure the NPU compiler without using the generic property escape hatch.
When the value is non-empty, pass it to OpenVINO as NPU_COMPILATION_MODE_PARAMS. This enables settings such as optimization-level=3 for NPU compilation while preserving the existing behavior when the variable is unset and leaving CPU and GPU configuration unchanged.
Document the variable, its NPU-only scope, and the optimization-level=3 example in the OpenVINO backend runtime configuration table.

* ci : apply ccache-clear with older/min/dry-run to all ccache jobs
Assisted-by: llama.cpp:DeepSeek-v4-Flash-0731
* ci : install gh in ccache-clear if missing (container jobs)
The ccache-clear action relies on the gh CLI, which is not present in
container-based jobs. Install it on demand so those jobs can clear caches.
Assisted-by: llama.cpp:DeepSeek-v4-Flash-0731
* ci : install gh via apt repo in ccache-clear
The install.sh script used previously is no longer served (404). Switch to
the official GitHub CLI apt repository, which is still available.
Assisted-by: llama.cpp:DeepSeek-v4-Flash-0731
* ci : pass --repo to gh cache commands in ccache-clear
In container jobs gh cannot auto-detect the repository from git, so
gh cache list/delete fail with 'failed to run git: not a git repository'.
Pass the repository explicitly via --repo using GITHUB_REPOSITORY.
Assisted-by: llama.cpp:DeepSeek-v4-Flash-0731
* ci : drop -new suffix from vulkan ccache key
The -new suffix was only needed to force a fresh cache. With
ccache-clear now evicting stale caches, the original key can be used
again. The old ccache-vulkan-ubuntu-24.04-arm-new entries still match
the ccache-clear key prefix and are cleaned up automatically.
Assisted-by: llama.cpp:DeepSeek-v4-Flash-0731
* ci : fix ccache-clear date parsing on macOS (BSD date)
macOS ships BSD date, which has no -d option. The older cutoff check
was silently disabled there: 'date: illegal option -- d' errors in the
log and the loop was only stopped by the min limit, risking deletion
of caches not older than the cutoff (e.g. saved by a concurrent job).
Parse the ISO-8601 timestamps with GNU date when available and fall
back to BSD date otherwise (TZ=UTC, fractional seconds dropped).
Assisted-by: llama.cpp:DeepSeek-v4-Flash-0731
* ci : extract ccache-clear logic into scripts/ccache-clear.sh
The composite action now consists of a dedicated step that installs the
GitHub CLI when missing (e.g. in container jobs) and a thin step that
calls the new script. The script follows the make-release-checks.sh
conventions (usage/env header, set -euo pipefail, CLI flags) and only
checks that gh is available. The action inputs are unchanged, so the
workflow steps are untouched.

* ci : remove unused apple ccaches
* update to ov-2026.3, update device drivers
* ci: skip nemotron-h rollback test on OpenVINO
The OpenVINO backend does not support SSM_SCAN, so the Nemotron-H recurrent state rollback graph is split and cannot preserve the recurrent cache output shape. Keep the test enabled for other backends and retain the qwen35 OpenVINO rollback coverage.
