The update addresses an issue in llama.cpp where the number of GPU layers was incorrectly calculated by not accounting for skipped NextN layers, leading to improper layer distribution between CPU and GPU. The fix ensures that skipped NextN layers are included in the n_gpu_layers count and properly assigned during model loading, resolving a bug where layer 0 remained on the CPU despite offloading all other layers.

v1.19.0 - Trace Your Workflows, Layer by Layer

Dify 1.19.0 enhances observability with nested workflow tracing, allowing users to follow execution steps inside Workflow Tools, inspect LLM calls, and maintain context across nested invocations. The release also enables portable app packages via App packages, improves Agent file uploads and previews, introduces Skill Hub automation through CLI commands, and upgrades the bundled plugin daemon to version 0.6.14-local. Key changes include support for format v2 app packages, enhanced security, improved editing workflows, and updated environment variables and API endpoints.

llama : build the k-pool sparse selection independently of the kq_mask shape (#31243) * llama : build the k-pool sparse selection independently of the kq_mask shape qwen4exp (QSA) and glm5-next pick cache cells by index and no longer read the kq_mask values, but they still shaped the selection like the dense kq_mask. Build the selection as [n_kv, n_tokens] over the cache cells instead, and split it into the streams of the K view right before the attention. This lets the dense mask change its layout (e.g. per-sequence row lists) without touching the sparse layers. * improve comment Co-authored-by: Georgi Gerganov * llama : drop the unused build_fused_top_k_mask args, review nits --------- Co-authored-by: Georgi Gerganov **Website:** - **Attestations:** - **macOS/iOS:** - [macOS Apple Silico

Release: v5.21.0

# Release v5.21.0 ## New Model additions ### MiniCPM-OCR MiniCPM-OCR is a document-understanding model from OpenBMB's MiniCPM-V family. It keeps the MiniCPM-V 4.6 architecture, which pairs a SigLIP vision encoder and a window-attention merger with a Qwen3.5 language model. It is specialized for reading text-dense images such as scanned pages, screenshots, receipts and tables. **Links:** [Documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/minicpm_ocr) | [Paper](https://huggingface.co/papers/2509.18154) * Feat test (#49920) by @guarin in [#49920](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/49920) ### Flint Flint is Recursive's mixture-of-experts language model. Compared to a standard SwiGLU MoE transformer such as Qwen3-MoE, it uses hybrid attention (sliding-windo
