sleepy 6ad84d543c feat: phased patch system for Intel Arc GPU performance fixes
3-model council (GLM-5.1, Minimax-M2.7, Kimi k2p5) analyzed Intel Arc GPU
performance issues and produced patches for llama.cpp:

Phase 1 - SYCL Sync: Enable graph execution by default (GGML_SYCL_DISABLE_GRAPH)
Phase 2 - SYCL Kernel: Fix VER_GEN12/13 thresholds, tune DMMV_X/MMV_Y
Phase 3 - Vulkan Intel: Arc 140T device-ID Xe2 override

Includes:
- Phased apply script (apply-phase.sh [1|2|3|all])
- Master apply script with --status/--reverse/--dry-run
- Per-phase READMEs with testing checklists
- Council deliberation logs (gitignored in logs/)

Verified: all patches apply/reverse cleanly via git apply.
Static verification: VER_GEN arithmetic and DMMV_X divisibility pass.

Phase 3 — Vulkan Intel Fixes

Depends on: Phase 1 and 2 (should be applied and tested first)

0001-arc-140t-xe2-override.patch

Adds device-ID override for Intel Arc 140T (Arrow Lake H) to force INTEL_XE2 classification in the Vulkan backend.

Problem

Arc 140T reports minSubgroupSize=8 instead of 16. The Vulkan backend uses minSubgroupSize to detect Xe2. When misreported, the 140T is classified as OTHER, disabling cooperative matrix and all dependent optimizations.

Fix

Checks for Arrow Lake H device IDs (0x7D51, 0x7D45) before the minSubgroupSize check and returns INTEL_XE2 directly.

Applies to

Both the EXT and KHR code paths in ggml-vulkan.cpp.

Impact

Only affects Arrow Lake H (Arc 140T) systems. No effect on other hardware.

Testing checklist

  • Build succeeds with Vulkan support
  • Arc 140T: device classified as INTEL_XE2
  • Arc 140T: cooperative matrix shaders used for matmul
  • Other Intel GPUs: no change in behavior
  • Non-Intel GPUs: no change in behavior
