Marvin 1dd0700988 hybrid-llama: merge ik_llama IQK CPU GEMM into TurboQuant fork
Base: AtomicBot-ai/atomic-llama-cpp-turboquant @ cd5609390. IQK source: ikawrakow/ik_llama.cpp @ fe215a8c (ggml/src/iqk only).

- GGML_IQK_MUL_MAT / GGML_IQK_FLASH_ATTENTION options (default OFF)

- 57 IQK repacked types, blocks, traits; IQK hooks in ggml_compute_forward_mul_mat

- ggml-cpu with IQK ON builds and links; IQK OFF build unaffected

llama.cpp/examples/training

This directory contains examples related to language model training using llama.cpp/GGML. So far finetuning is technically functional (for FP32 models and limited hardware setups) but the code is very much WIP. Finetuning of Stories 260K and LLaMA 3.2 1b seems to work with 24 GB of memory. For CPU training, compile llama.cpp without any additional backends such as CUDA. For CUDA training, use the maximum number of GPU layers.

Proof of concept:

export model_name=llama_3.2-1b && export quantization=f32
./build/bin/llama-finetune --file wikitext-2-raw/wiki.test.raw -ngl 999 --model models/${model_name}-${quantization}.gguf -c 512 -b 512 -ub 512
./build/bin/llama-perplexity --file wikitext-2-raw/wiki.test.raw -ngl 999 --model finetuned-model.gguf

The perplexity value of the finetuned model should be lower after training on the test set for 2 epochs.
