* cmake : introduce semantic versioning (wip)
This commit introduces semantic versioning to llama.cpp.
* squash! cmake : introduce semantic versioning (wip)
* cmake : update test-cmake README notes [no ci]
* include libmtmd in output so show its semversioned
* ci : add make-release workflow
* ci : fix build number check in build-cmake-pkg.yml
* examples : remove trailing whitespace
* ci : abort if upstream ggml version does not exist
* ci : extract step contents into scripts
* ci : add GGML_NATIVE=OFF to ubuntu job
* examples : remove CI build information from test-cmake [no ci]
This commit removes the nightly/release information that I added
previously to keep this focused only on using building and installing
llama.cpp with cmake and being able to quickly verify changes or
troubleshoot issues.
* ci : merge scripts into single script
* remove -dev-build_number support
This commit removes the incremental build number (versioning) support
that I added. This was incorrect and we should only use the semver for
the version. Releases will be tag a nightly build and package
maintainers/managers that build from source can use the tag and it is
therefor important that the correct version is reported. So a
nightly-build will report the semver without the build number. The build
number and commit as availble via cmake and test-cmake has been updated
to include an example of using them:
```console
$ ./build.sh
[test-cmake] version: 0.1.0, build: 10360 (08c69e381)
...
```

* ci: Add support for CUDA 13.4 ARM64 builds for Windows
Added an architecture-specific CUDA 13.4 Windows build entry targeting ARM64.
Added a CMake configuration to enable ARM64 CUDA cross-compilation from an x64 Windows environment using the x64-hosted CUDA and MSVC toolchain while linking against the ARM64 CUDA import libraries to produce ggml-cuda.dll.
Validated the self-hosted Windows x64 workflow, including toolkit acquisition, CMake configuration, ARM64 CUDA cross-compilation, and packaging. Runtime validation was performed separately on a native ARM64 RTX Spark system using TinyLlama 1.1B Q4_K_M to verify the generated binaries.
The ARM64 CUDA job builds only the ggml-cuda.dll backend (LLAMA_BUILD_SERVER=OFF). The release consists of two packages: the main ARM64 release package, which combines the existing ARM64 CPU outputs with ggml-cuda.dll, and a separate runtime package containing the required CUDA runtime libraries (cudart64_13.dll, cublas64_13.dll, and cublasLt64_13.dll).
The CUDA 13.4 setup uses NVIDIA Developer Preview component archives instead of the GA component downloads used by the existing CUDA setups and will require updates once CUDA 13.4 reaches GA.
* ci: cleans up to align with x64 CUDA setup
- Moves CUDA-specific CMake options into matrix defines.
- Keeps the CUB 3DOT2 option only for CUDA 12.4.
- Removes runtime argument construction and the unnecessary server option.
- Aligns ARM64 CUDA runtime packaging with the existing robocopy approach.
- Generalizes the ARM64 release label from CUDA 13.4 to CUDA 13.
* ci: Set CUDA job name as version-architecture pair
* mark as preview

This commit introduces a mechanism to embed all licenses directly
into the compiled binaries.
This eliminates the need to distribute separate LICENSE files alongside
the executable, making the binaries self-contained and simplifying
deployment.
The current approach has several drawbacks. Mostly, when
cross-compiling, invoking the compiler binary directly to query the
machine hardware can behave unexpectedly depending on the toolchain
wrapper (using COMPILER_TARGET, CFLAGS, etc).
As CMake is the official tool to build llama.cpp, I propose to only rely
on it to get those variables (`CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME` and
`CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR`).

* cmake: Factor out compiler flag function from ggml
llama.cpps's build requires it, too, and we may want to make use of it
without add_subdirectory(ggml).
* cmake: Enable building against system ggml
This facilitates package maintenance for Linux distributions, where the
libggml library most likely will be shipped as an individual package
upon which a llama.cpp package depends.

This enforces a check that -fno-finite-math-only was set and that the operating
compiling mode is not in finite maths mode. This is because during rewriting of
silu and softmax for cpu #7154 there emerged an issue where the result that was
observed when >1 slot was nondeterministic as found by @JohannesGaessler.
@LostRuins narrowed the problem down to -ffinite-math-only which was theorised
to be due to SiLU, instead of flushing small values to 0, returns NaN or some
other garbage. @jart proposed a fix that @ggerganov then implemented in this fix
