The llama.cpp project released version b11811 on Oct 22 2026. The update adds Q8_0 SVE dot‑product GEMV and SVE i8mm GEMM kernels, which speed up quantized model inference on ARM CPUs. Pre‑built binaries for macOS Apple Silicon, Intel, iOS, and several Ubuntu builds (CPU, Vulkan, CUDA 12.8) are now available for download.
Developers can run LLaMA models faster on newer ARM hardware and on Linux GPUs without writing custom code.
