As AI workloads diversify, inference platforms must provide both power efficiency and the flexibility to support a range of workloads. GPUs are highly programmable but power-hungry, whereas dedicated ASICs are efficient but typically tailored to specific workloads. FPGAs are flexible, but their operating frequency and execution performance are often limited. In this paper, we present a common implementation approach and an initial evaluation for ggml-based OSS workloads on CGLA/IMAX, including llama.cpp, whisper.cpp, and stable-diffusion.cpp. In llama.cpp, we offload CPU-side matrix multiplication and dot-product kernels to IMAX and extend the same implementation boundary to ASR and image generation workloads. Our prior results show that LLM decode is dominated by LOAD and host-side processing, Q-Snap improves prefill performance by 1.62x, Whisper ASR achieves 1.90x and 9.83x higher energy efficiency than Jetson AGX Orin and RTX 4090, respectively, and Stable Diffusion is implemented with mixed FP16/FP32/quantized execution. Based on these observations, we discuss software-stack issues for CGLA, including a common frontend, a measurement-driven runtime, and policy-specialized backends. |
