AI Summary

Tiled matrix multiplication has been enabled for AIX systems by reducing local stack buffer footprints to avoid segmentation faults. This change delivers approximately 2x performance improvements for specific model types on the platform.

Key Highlights

  • Enable tiled matmul on AIX
  • Fix segmentation fault on AIX
  • Performance boost of ~2x for PP_Speed

ggml-cpu: Enable tiled matmul on AIX (#25199)

The matmul_tiled path uses large local stack buffers for A_pack and B_pack. On AIX this can trigger a segmentation fault, so reduce the buffer footprint there to keep the tiled path usable.

 Performance Impact:
    ~ 2x gains in PP_Speed for FP32, Q4_0 and Q8_0 models tested with llama-bench, llama-batched-bench and llama-cli.
    Models used: Llama3.2 3b Instruct F32, qwen 2.5 3b Q4_0 and Q8_0
