finished yet (in_progress, queued, pending, waiting, requested), grouped by status.
Supports selecting runs by status, by branch (server-side, to reduce API traffic)
or by a regex on the branch name, and can cancel the selected runs via --kill.

Note: used help from Codex, Sol 6.1 Medium
* Fixing initial bot comments + linter error (using existing out instead of print)

* hexagon: add configurable HTP DCVS/HMX power mode
* hexagon: address PR review feedback (drop CLI flag, align QAIRT power modes, comment/log cleanup)

Hooks GGML_HEXAGON_POWER_MODE into the unified run.py runner, following

process touches the Hexagon backend registry (see comment in
ggml_hexagon_init), so this is exposed as a runner flag rather than a
common/arg.cpp CLI option.

* hexagon: head-parallel flash_attn partitioning for row-split multicore
In row-split mode each core computes its output row shard of every
MUL_MAT, but flash_attn was previously partitioning by Q tokens
(flat qrow split) instead of by heads. This forced every core to
read the full KV cache (all n_kv_heads), negating the memory
bandwidth benefit of multicore on flash_attn.
Change both HMX and HVX flash_attn kernels to partition by KV heads
when n_kv_heads is divisible by n_cores: core i processes heads
[i*n_kv_heads/N, (i+1)*n_kv_heads/N) exclusively, reading only its
head shard of the KV cache. Falls back to the original token-block
split when n_kv_heads % n_cores != 0 (e.g. Gemma-4 with 2 KV heads
on 4 cores).
Controlled by GGML_HEXAGON_FA_HEAD_SPLIT (default 1 = on).
The flag is packed into bit 1 of the existing is_dst_fp32 kparams
byte to stay within the 128-byte kernel_params blob limit.
Measured gains at 4c row-split (PP t/s, ubatch=1024):
Qwen3-0.6B: 6977 -> 11026 (+58%)
llama-3.2-3B: 3717 -> 5522 (+49%)
Qwen3.5-4B: 2739 -> 2855 (+4%)
Gemma-4 MoE: no change (MoE FFN dominates, fallback path)
TG is unchanged (flash_attn is a small fraction of decode time
relative to the matmul+barrier cost per layer).

make-release-desc.sh now emits "Changelog since [vX.Y.Z](<repo>/releases/tag/vX.Y.Z)"
instead of a plain version string, so the release notes link back to the previous release.
The repo URL is derived from the origin remote (SSH or HTTPS); if it cannot be
resolved (local run without origin), the title falls back to plain text.

* ci : add API/ABI check to make-release workflow [no ci]
This commit adds an API/ABI compatibility check to the make-release
workflow.
The motivation for this to allow us to detect any potential breaking
changes in API/ABI compatibility between releases and fail the the
release if there are any.
The workflow can be triggered manually as before and this check can be
skipped if needed as it does take some time which might be useful when
doing a dry-run and not specifically interested in the API/ABI check.
By default this will check the current release against the latest
release, but this can also be configured in the workflow, or in the
script run on the command line, to check a different tag.
* add check for minor version bumps [no ci]
This commit also changes the build type to be RelWithDebInfo so that the
reported information is more useful.

* squash! ggml : attempt to fix use of std::hardware_destructive_inference_size
Add a version check for GCC 12 to conditionally apply the `-Winterference-size`
pragma.
* editorconfig : exclude profiling reports dir
This directory will not be included in the merge later and this commit
can be ignore at that point. Just fixing to keep CI happy.
* ggml : skip PCH for gcc on non-x86 architectures

* common : add PCH for chat.h

Just updating after a number of PCH additions. These are not exact

of the performance impact of PCH.
* cmake : introduce unity build for models
This commit introduces a unity build for the models to improve
compilation time.
The improvements were roughly the following:
```console
+------------------------+-----+------------+------------+------------+
| Build | TUs | Frontend | Backend | Total |
+------------------------+-----+------------+------------+------------+
| Full, master | 396 | 811.0 s | 692.2 s | 1,503.2 s |
| Full, with PCH | 405 | 380.0 s | 664.7 s | 1,044.7 s |
| Full, with PCH + UB | 264 | 357.7 s | 635.7 s | 993.4 s |
+------------------------+-----+------------+------------+------------+
TU = Translation Unit.
Full = includes Server, Tools, and Tests.
PCH = precompiled headers.
UB = unity build for models.
```
* docs : update linux profiling table with unitiy build results
* docs : update mac profiling results to include unity build [no ci]
* docs: remove profiling reports
* scripts : merge build profile scripts into one script
I was lazy before and just copied the first script to enable Tests,
Server, and Tools. This now merges them into a single script.
* Revert "editorconfig : exclude profiling reports dir" [no ci]
This reverts commit 2922a12118.
* src : rename ggml_view_2d_slice to gemma3n_view_2d_slice
This is to be consistent with the rename in gemma4.cpp which was
required to avoid a name clash.
* cmake : add build profile script for windows [no ci]
This commit adds a port of the scripts/build-profile.sh script to
windows powershell.
This was developed on Windows on ARM but should work on X64 as well but
needs to be tested there as well.
This commit updates the version parsing in make-release-checks.sh to use
sed instead of grep. The motivation for this is that currently when
running this script on macos it errors:
```console
$ ./scripts/make-release-checks.sh --dry-run
grep: invalid option -- P
usage: grep [-abcdDEFGHhIiJLlMmnOopqRSsUVvwXxZz] [-A num] [-B num] [-C[num]]
[-e pattern] [-f file] [--binary-files=value] [--color=when]
[--context[=num]] [--directories=action] [--label] [--line-buffered]
[--null] [pattern] [file ...]
```
With the changes in this commit it is possible to run this without
failure.
This commit contains a suggestion for handling container images which
are currently not semver tagged, they only have build numbers in there
tags.
The proposed solution here is to first add a check to make sure that
there are container images built for the build number of the release and
if not fail the build. The container images are build nightly but they
can be triggered manually as well.
If the the container images check passes then the make-release workflow
will re-tag the images with the semver.
Remove the build-time C++ helper and external gzip dependency,
simplifying cross-compilation. Keep the generated C++ in templates for
readability and preserve fully embedded UI assets.
