GPU support crashing on Linux in 0.2 releases about llamafile

[jart]

There's no CUDA_CHECK() anywhere near line 6006 in ggml-cuda.cu. Could you upload /home/garcia/.llamafile/ggml-cuda.cu to this issue tracker so I can see what's failing?

[GarciaLnk]

Sure, here it is attached, however after a quick diff it seems to be identical to this repo's llama.cpp/ggml-cuda.cu file (and in fact, there's a CUDA_CHECK() in line 6006).

ggml-cuda.cu

[jart]

You are correct about line 6006. Apologies for any confusion. So here's what failing:

    CUDA_CHECK(cudaMalloc((void **) &ptr, look_ahead_size));

Looks like you're running out of GPU memory. But you said you're not passing the -ngl flag which defaults to zero. I want to understand why it's possible to run out of GPU memory when the GPU isn't being used. Help wanted.

Also do you know if this happens if you use llama.cpp upstream?

I am getting the same error on my system. My system is kind of similar. I also got a mobile Nvidia gpu.

For me, it does not happen if I use mistral with llama.cpp.

[GarciaLnk]

Also do you know if this happens if you use llama.cpp upstream?

It does not happen with llama.cpp, both -ngl 35 and -ngl 0 work fine there using the same model.

[GarciaLnk]

I just tried the earlier releases and everything works fine in v0.1, but it breaks in v0.2, so some breaking change must have been introduced there.

[jart]

I'm reasonably certain if you pass the --unsecure flag, things will work. Could you confirm this?

[r3drock]

works for me

[jart]

Great! I'll update all the llamafiles on HuggingFace so their .args files pass the --unsecure flag. That will rollback the new security until the next release can do better.

[GarciaLnk]

Yup, that works, thank you!
