## Overview
|
|
|
|
The document covers procedures for installing the latest GPU and NPU drivers, and OpenCL and Hexagon SDKs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to use Hexagon NPU on Snapdragon Windows devices the underlying HTP Ops libraries (e.g libggml-htp-v73.so)
|
|
must be included in the .cat file digitally signed with a trusted certificate.
|
|
|
|
This document covers details on how to generate personal certificate files (.pfx) and how to configure the system
|
|
to allow for test signatures (aka test-signing).
|
|
|
|
## Install the latest Adreno OpenCL SDK
|
|
|
|
Either use the trimmed down version (optimized for CI) from
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/snapdragon-toolchain/opencl-sdk/releases/download/v2.3.2/adreno-opencl-sdk-v2.3.2-arm64-wos.tar.xz
|
|
|
|
Or download the complete official version from
|
|
|
|
https://softwarecenter.qualcomm.com/catalog/item/Adreno_OpenCL_SDK?version=2.3.2
|
|
|
|
Unzip/untar the archive into
|
|
```
|
|
c:\Qualcomm\OpenCL_SDK\2.3.2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Install the latest Hexagon SDK Community Edition
|
|
|
|
Either use the trimmed down version (optimized for CI) from
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/snapdragon-toolchain/hexagon-sdk/releases/download/v6.4.0.2/hexagon-sdk-v6.4.0.2-arm64-wos.tar.xz
|
|
|
|
Or download the complete official version from
|
|
|
|
https://softwarecenter.qualcomm.com/catalog/item/Hexagon_SDK?version=6.4.0.2
|
|
|
|
Unzip/untar the archive into
|
|
```
|
|
c:\Qualcomm\Hexagon_SDK\6.4.0.2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Install the latest Adreno GPU driver
|
|
|
|
Download the driver from
|
|
|
|
https://softwarecenter.qualcomm.com/catalog/item/Windows_Graphics_Driver
|
|
|
|
After the automated installation and reboot please make sure that the GPU device shows up in the `Device Manager` (under 'Display Adapters`)
|
|
|
|
## Install the latest Qualcomm NPU driver
|
|
|
|
Download the driver from
|
|
|
|
https://softwarecenter.qualcomm.com/catalog/item/Qualcomm_HND
|
|
|
|
After the automated installation and reboot please make sure that the Hexagon NPU device shows up in the `Device Manager` (under `Neural Processors`).
|
|
|
|
If the device is not available you can try installing all components (`qcnspmcdm8380`, `qcnspmcdm8380_ext`) manually.
|
|
The components are extracted into
|
|
```
|
|
c:\QCDrivers\qcnspmcdm...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Enable NPU driver test signatures
|
|
|
|
Please note that the following steps are required only for the Hexagon NPU.
|
|
Adreno GPU backend does not require test signatures.
|
|
|
|
### Enable testsigning
|
|
|
|
Use `bcdedit` to enable test-signing
|
|
```
|
|
> bcdedit /set TESTSIGNING ON
|
|
```
|
|
(Secure Boot may need to be disabled for this to work)
|
|
|
|
Make sure test-signing is enabled after reboot
|
|
```
|
|
> bcdedit /enum
|
|
...
|
|
testsigning Yes
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
For additional details see Microsoft guide at
|
|
|
|
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/install/the-testsigning-boot-configuration-option
|
|
|
|
### Create personal certificate
|
|
|
|
The tools required for this procedure are available as part of Windows SDK and Windows Driver Kit which should be
|
|
installed as part of the MS Visual Studio.
|
|
They are typically located at
|
|
```
|
|
c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.26100.0
|
|
```
|
|
(replace 10.0.26100.0 with correct version).
|
|
|
|
To create personal self-signed certificate run the following commands (either from cmd or power-shell):
|
|
```
|
|
> cd c:\Users\MyUser
|
|
> mkdir Certs
|
|
> cd Certs
|
|
> makecert -r -pe -ss PrivateCertStore -n CN=GGML.HTP.v1 -eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.3 -sv ggml-htp-v1.pvk ggml-htp-v1.cer
|
|
> pvk2pfx.exe -pvk ggml-htp-v1.pvk -spc ggml-htp-v1.cer -pfx ggml-htp-v1.pfx
|
|
```
|
|
(replace `MyUser` with your username).
|
|
|
|
Add this certificate to `Trusted Root Certification Authorities` and `Trusted Publishers` stores.
|
|
This can be done using `certlm` Certificate Manager tool.
|
|
Right click on the certificate store, select `All Tasks -> Import` and follow the prompts to import the certificate from the
|
|
PFX file you created above.
|
|
|
|
For additional details see Microsoft guide at
|
|
|
|
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/install/introduction-to-test-signing
|
|
|
|
Make sure to save the PFX file, you will need it for the build procedures.
|
|
Please note that the same certificate can be used for signing any number of builds.
|
|
|
|
## Build Hexagon backend with signed HTP ops libraries
|
|
|
|
The overall Hexagon backend build procedure for Windows on Snapdragon is the same as for other platforms.
|
|
However, additional settings are required for generating and signing HTP Ops libraries.
|
|
```
|
|
> $env:OPENCL_SDK_ROOT="C:\Qualcomm\OpenCL_SDK\2.3.2"
|
|
> $env:HEXAGON_SDK_ROOT="C:\Qualcomm\Hexagon_SDK\6.4.0.2"
|
|
> $env:HEXAGON_TOOLS_ROOT="C:\Qualcomm\Hexagon_SDK\6.4.0.2\tools\HEXAGON_Tools\19.0.04"
|
|
> $env:HEXAGON_HTP_CERT="c:\Users\MyUsers\Certs\ggml-htp-v1.pfx"
|
|
> $env:WINDOWS_SDK_BIN="C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.26100.0\arm64"
|
|
|
|
> cmake --preset arm64-windows-snapdragon -B build-wos
|
|
...
|
|
> cmake --install build-wos --prefix pkg-snapdragon
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once the build is complete HTP ops libraries will be installed like this
|
|
```
|
|
> dir pkg-snapdragon/lib
|
|
...
|
|
-a---- 1/22/2026 6:01 PM 187656 libggml-htp-v73.so
|
|
-a---- 1/22/2026 6:01 PM 191752 libggml-htp-v75.so
|
|
-a---- 1/22/2026 6:01 PM 187656 libggml-htp-v79.so
|
|

|
|
-a---- 1/22/2026 6:01 PM 4139 libggml-htp.cat
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The .cat file, the signature and proper certicate installation can be verified with
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
> signtool.exe verify /v /pa .\pkg-snapdragon\lib\libggml-htp.cat
