Ollama's CI now scans the entire codebase instead of just changed lines, unblocking larger PRs that were silently accumulating lint violations across their diffs.

The shift fixes a critical gap in golangci-lint's only-new-issues mode, which filters findings down to touched lines and drops issues introduced at a distance where the report anchors to an untouched line [1]. Daniel Hiltgen's follow-up PR cleans the tree of existing violations so dependent work lands without carrying unrelated fixes [2]. Meanwhile, Jesse Gross improved speculative decoding diagnostics by logging per-request stats at info level instead of debug, capturing every speculative round to surface throughput issues [3]. Across llama.cpp, the project shipped two releases with expanded speculative decoding support: GLM-5.2 now has NextN/MTP drafting via the --spec-type draft-mtp target [4], and RDNA3.5 tuning configs can now be optimized independently [5]. On the performance front, a new SYCL contiguous fast path eliminates redundant 64-bit integer math from unary elementwise ops, cutting SILU kernel time from 3.2 ms down toward the 0.63 ms bandwidth floor [6]. The same release cycle adds MTP draft support for mimo2 architecture, preserving trunk-only GGUFs while building the MiMo-specific graph with fused attention and shared-head fallbacks [7].
