AI Summary

Optimized regex pattern compilation in `llama_meta_device_get_split_state()` by making patterns static const local variables to prevent recompilation on every call, significantly improving decode thread performance.

Key Highlights

  • Performance optimization for tensor-split regex patterns
  • Eliminated redundant regex compilation overhead in decode threads
  • Thread-safe implementation using C++11 local statics
  • Available across all supported platforms (macOS, Linux, Android, Windows, openEuler)

New Features

  • Performance enhancement for tensor-split regex handling

llama : make tensor-split regex patterns static (#24710)

llama_meta_device_get_split_state() recompiled 29 std::regex on every call.
In -sm tensor mode the callback runs once per tensor per token, so this
dominated the decode thread in profiling. Mark them static const so they are
compiled once. Kept inside the function (local statics are thread-safe since
C++11). Patterns are literal and stateless, so behavior is unchanged.
