* Sycl tp stage1 (#1)
* SYCL: tensor parallelism (--split-mode tensor) for dual-GPU
Adds the comm_init/comm_free/comm_allreduce_tensor trio that the
meta-backend queries via get_proc_address to enable backend-specific
all-reduce, mirroring the pattern used by ggml-cuda.cu.
For N=2 (the common dual-GPU case) implements a degenerate ring
all-reduce with two size-branched paths:
* Small (nelem < 32768): FP32 direct memcpy + per-device ADD kernel
chained via depends_on(memcpy_event). 4 SYCL submissions/call.
* Large (nelem >= 32768): BF16-compressed. Each device compresses
FP32 -> BF16 in a local outbox, cross-device memcpys to the peer's
inbox (HALF the PCIe bytes), then decompresses + adds into the
local FP32 partial. 6 SYCL submissions/call but PCIe bytes halved
-- wins for any tensor where PCIe dominates kernel time.
Threshold and BF16 path pattern mirror the CUDA NCCL allreduce.
Storage: ONE persistent uint8_t buffer per device, 4 * nelem bytes
(matches both path layouts: FP32 nelem floats; BF16 outbox+inbox =
2 * nelem uint16_t each). Single alloc+free per device keeps the
SYCL pool's strict-LIFO invariant trivial.
Initial impl handles N=2 FP32 contiguous tensors. Other cases return
false, causing the meta-backend to use its generic butterfly fallback.
Per-call sync is intentionally omitted. SYCL in-order queue semantics
ensure that the meta-backend's next compute on the same per-device
queue waits for our final ADD, and the next allreduce's first op on
the same persistent buffer waits via the same queue. Only comm_free
does an explicit final wait.
OneCCL is NOT used: OneCCL 2021.17 hardcodes single-device-per-process
in communicator_impl.hpp:47 (condition devices.size() == 1), which is
incompatible with llama.cpp's single-process multi-GPU model.
Measured on dual Intel Arc Pro B70 (NEO 26.05.x, oneAPI 2025.3 +
DPC++ nightly):
Llama-3.3-70B Q4_K_M, -sm tensor -fa 1 -ctk f16 -ctv f16:
pp512 = 377.08 t/s (vs 313.65 layer mode = +20.2%)
tg128 = 17.40 t/s (vs 9.74 layer mode = +78.6%)
Qwen3-Coder-Next-80B-A3B Q3_K_M (MoE):
pp512 = 216.56 t/s (vs 156.58 meta-backend butterfly = +38.3%)
tg128 = 17.60 t/s (vs 14.31 meta-backend butterfly = +23.0%)
Qwen3-4B Q4_K_M:
pp64 = 984.51 t/s, tg16 = 49.29 t/s
Llama-3.3-70B in SYCL TP now comfortably beats production layer mode
on both prefill and decode. Coder-Next-80B-A3B (MoE) also wins on
both — the BF16 path is what unlocks the many-medium-allreduces
prefill pattern.

* vulkan-shaders-gen: fail the build when a shader fails to compile
vulkan-shaders-gen did not detect shader-compile subprocess failures, so a
broken libggml-vulkan could be produced while the build reported success and
the breakage only surfaced at run time. execute_command() discarded the child
exit code (POSIX waitpid passed nullptr for status; the Windows branch never
called GetExitCodeProcess) and string_to_spv decided success only from whether
stderr was empty, so a non-zero exit with empty stderr, or a subprocess that
failed to launch, was treated as success.
Return the child exit code from execute_command() (WEXITSTATUS on POSIX,
GetExitCodeProcess on Windows), treat a non-zero exit or non-empty stderr or a
launch exception as a failure, and record it in an atomic flag. main() checks
the flag after process_shaders() and returns EXIT_FAILURE before writing the
output files, so the build stops instead of emitting a broken backend.
Fixes#24393

* vulkan-shaders-gen: simplify compile_failed access and drop unreachable return
Address review feedback on #24450:
- Access the std::atomic<bool> compile_failed directly (= / implicit bool)
instead of .store()/.load(); the flag stays atomic because the worker
threads in process_shaders() set it concurrently.
- Remove the unreachable trailing return -1 in execute_command(): on POSIX the
child _exit()s after execvp and the parent returns (fork()<0 throws); on
Windows the block returns the exit code.

* vulkan: make SQR/SQRT/SIN/COS/CLAMP/LEAKY_RELU use unary.comp

* add noncontiguous row test cases for norm/l2_norm, handle this in the CPU backend and l2_norm.comp

The result-checking and test debug paths in ggml-vulkan.cpp call ggml_graph_compute_with_ctx() to compute a CPU reference graph, but that symbol is defined in ggml-cpu, which ggml-vulkan does not link. Enabling -DGGML_VULKAN_CHECK_RESULTS=ON (or -DGGML_VULKAN_RUN_TESTS=ON) therefore fails to link with an unresolved external (e.g. LNK2019 on MSVC, undefined reference on GCC/Clang). This regressed after ggml-cpu was split into its own library. Link ggml-cpu under those two options so the debug builds link again.

* ggml-cpu: support K tails in Power10 MMA Q8/Q4 matmul
This patch removes the requirement that K be divisible by kc in the tinyBlas_Q0_PPC tiled matmul path. Process the final K panel using its actual depth and pass the reduced panel size through packing and kernel execution. This allows more workloads to use the MMA kernel and reduces fallback to mnpack.

This introduces an optional feature to allocate large GPU buffers (≥ 1GB)
using USM system allocations if supported by the device. It allows using
buffers from the system allocator then letting the system manage memory
migrations between host and device as necessary.
This feature is disabled by default and requires the GGML_SYCL_USM_SYSTEM
environment variable to enable. If USM system allocations are not supported
by the device or the system, we fallback to regular allocations.
This feature can allow VRAM overcommit. For example, the test below fails
on B580 due to lack of memory for allocation, but it passes when enabling
USM system allocations:
