* server: tests: fetch random media marker via /apply-template (#21962 fix)
* server: allow pinning media marker via LLAMA_MEDIA_MARKER env var
get_media_marker() checks LLAMA_MEDIA_MARKER at first call and uses it
as-is if set, falling back to the random marker otherwise.
Tests no longer need to fetch the marker dynamically via /apply-template:
the fixture sets LLAMA_MEDIA_MARKER=<__media__> so the hardcoded prompts
work as before.

* server: make get_media_marker() thread-safe via magic statics
Use a C++11 static local with a lambda initializer instead of a global
static with an empty-check. The runtime guarantees initialization exactly
once without explicit locking.

* [SYCL] Fix Q8_0 reorder: add missing dequantize path for GEMM
The Q8_0 reorder optimization (#21527) was missing a reorder-aware
dequantizer for the GEMM code path used during prompt processing.
After token generation reordered Q8_0 weights (via DMMV/MMVQ), the
next prompt processing pass would read them with the standard
dequantizer, producing garbage output.
Add dequantize_block_q8_0_reorder() and wire it into both
ggml_get_to_fp16_sycl() and ggml_get_to_fp32_sycl(), matching the
pattern already used by Q4_0, Q4_K, and Q6_K.
Fixes#21589
AI (Claude) was used to assist with root cause investigation and
writing the kernel code. All code was human-reviewed and tested
on real hardware.
* SYCL: fix reorder crash when device memory is full
The reorder optimization allocates a temporary buffer the full size of
the weight tensor on the device. When VRAM is nearly full (large models
on a single GPU), this allocation fails and the subsequent memcpy crashes
on a NULL pointer.
Fix: try device allocation first, fall back to host memory if device
memory is full. The reorder kernel still works correctly reading from
host memory over PCIe. This is slower for the one-time reorder (~21 t/s
vs ~38 t/s on Intel Arc Pro B70), but the optimization is preserved for
all subsequent inference. If both device and host allocation fail, skip
the reorder and fall back to the unoptimized kernel path.
Also fixes a bug where opt_for_reorder() marked tensors as reordered
even when the reorder was skipped due to allocation failure. This caused
DMMV/MMVQ kernels to read the original AoS data as if it were SoA,
producing garbage output or NaN results.
Tested on Intel Arc Pro B70 (32GB) with Q8_0, Q4_K_M models. Coding was
AI-assisted (Claude), reviewed and tested on hardware by a human.
Fixes#20478
* SYCL: add RAII temp buffer class + macro guard for host fallback
Replace sycl_ext_malloc_with_fallback/sycl_ext_free_fallback free
functions with sycl_reorder_temp_buffer RAII class. The host_fallback
bool is now a private member, and cleanup happens automatically at
scope exit.
Add GGML_SYCL_HOST_MEM_FALLBACK cmake option (default ON) to guard
the host memory fallback code path. Device access to host memory
requires Linux kernel 6.8+ (Ubuntu 26.04+); users on older kernels
can set -DGGML_SYCL_HOST_MEM_FALLBACK=OFF to disable it.
Addresses arthw's review on PR #21638.

* SYCL: add reorder-aware DMMV dequantizers for Q4_K and Q6_K
Q4_K and Q6_K had reorder support for MMVQ and GEMM paths but not
DMMV. When the DMMV path encountered reordered data it would abort.
Add DMMV kernels that read from the SOA reorder layout for both
types. Same math as the non-reorder versions, different memory
access pattern.

Set CMP0194 policy to NEW before project() call in ggml/CMakeLists.txt to suppress the "MSVC is not an assembler for language ASM" warning introduced in CMake 4.1.
The ggml project enables ASM globally for Metal (macOS) and KleidiAI (ARM) backends. On Windows/MSVC, no assembler sources are used, but CMake 4.1+ warns because cl.exe is not a valid ASM compiler.
This follows the same pattern used in ggml-vulkan (CMP0114, CMP0147).

* common: skip reasoning budget sampler when no budget is requested
After I added thinking_start_tag / thinking_end_tag for gemma4 in #21697, the reasoning budget sampler gets unconditionally created even when no budget is configured (the default -1). The same applies to kimi_k2, lfm2, lfm2_5, and ministral_3 which also set these tags. The budget gets converted to INT_MAX, so the sampler never actually forces any tokens but still runs per-token checks (start tag matching in IDLE state, token-to-piece conversion + UTF-8 checks in COUNTING state).
More importantly, the mere existence of the sampler (non-null rbudget) disables backend sampling. Backend sampling lets the GPU select tokens directly, avoiding a full logits transfer from GPU to CPU every token. This could explain the 30% speed regression reported in #21784 (98 t/s to 70 t/s on Vulkan).
So I added a reasoning_budget_tokens >= 0 check to the sampler creation condition. When the budget is unlimited, the sampler is not created, backend sampling stays enabled, and no per-token overhead is added. When a budget is explicitly set (0, 128, 1024, etc.), the sampler is created and works as before.
* common: preserve rbudget when grammar is lazy
Following up on the review feedback on #21870: keep the reasoning budget sampler when grammar_lazy is true, so the thinking-block grammar suppression from #20970 still works when tools are in use. This way, we only skip the sampler when both no budget is set AND grammar is not lazy.
