The packaging commit shipped the code and a summary of the numbers. It left out
everything the numbers are measured *against*, which is most of what makes them
checkable.
Added:
baselines/ llama.cpp runs (thread sweeps, NUMA sweeps, the
interleaved A/B passes behind the headline decode
figure) and the quality references: each build
against its own bf16 over 12 greedy prompts.
benchmarks/.../results/ 102 artifacts backing the published figures, each
with a provenance block naming the model,
quantization, thread set and build SHAs.
docs/engines/ the engine analyses -- llama.cpp, ExecuTorch, MNN,
ncnn, vLLM, vLLM-Omni -- and the cross-engine and
device-simulation comparisons.
docs/analysis/ the full study documents the summaries distil.
docs/edge/comparisons.md where this fork sits against llama.cpp and why:
decode is llama.cpp's, prefill is ours by ~2x, and
since neither engine exceeds 39% of the measured
222 GB/s ceiling the decode gap is the execution
model rather than the kernels.
docs/edge/environment.md pins and machine, and the correction below.
On "the modified vllm": there isn't one, and the doc says so plainly because it
is the obvious assumption. The vLLM checkout is clean upstream (0 commits
ahead, 0 uncommitted) and the installed wheel is stock 0.28.0+cpu. This fork
changes vLLM's CPU *behaviour* through vLLM's own extension points at import
time -- three CPU patches in vllm_omni/patch.py, the quantization-config
registry, the IR op registry, platform hooks -- specifically so the changes
survive a wheel upgrade rather than being lost on it. One of those patches is
why "KV sizing is not a memory lever" looked true for months: CpuPlatform
overwrote kv_cache_memory_bytes unconditionally, so the setting had no effect.
There is no patch series to apply; pin the version and let patch.py do the rest.
.gitignore gains explicit exceptions: upstream's blanket `*.json` and `results/`
rules were silently eating the measurement artifacts, which in this fork are the
substance rather than build output. Binary captures stay ignored.
No vLLM or llama.cpp source is redistributed -- only output produced with them.
NOTICE records both.

Welcome to vLLM-Omni
Easy, fast, and cheap omni-modality model serving for everyone
<script async defer src="https://buttons.github.io/buttons.js"></script> Star Watch Fork
About
vLLM was originally designed to support large language models for text-based autoregressive generation tasks. vLLM-Omni is a framework that extends its support for omni-modality model inference and serving:
- Omni-modality: Text, image, audio, video, and action data processing
- Non-autoregressive Architectures: extend the AR support of vLLM to Diffusion Transformers (DiT) and other parallel generation models
- Heterogeneous outputs: from traditional text generation to multimodal and action outputs
vLLM-Omni is fast with:
- State-of-the-art AR support by leveraging efficient KV cache management from vLLM
- Pipelined stage execution overlapping for high throughput performance
- Fully disaggregation based on OmniConnector and dynamic resource allocation across stages
vLLM-Omni is flexible and easy to use with:
- Heterogeneous pipeline abstraction to manage complex model workflows
- Seamless integration with popular Hugging Face models
- Tensor, pipeline, data and expert parallelism support for distributed inference
- Streaming outputs
- OpenAI-compatible API server
- Full-duplex realtime serving with streaming audio input and output
vLLM-Omni seamlessly supports most popular open-source models on HuggingFace, including:
- Omni-modality models (e.g. Qwen3-Omni, MiniCPM-o 4.5, Cosmos3, HunyuanImage, BAGEL)
- TTS models (e.g. Qwen3-TTS, IndexTTS 2.5, dots.tts, CosyVoice3)
- Diffusion models — image, video, and audio generation (e.g. MiniMax H3, LTX-2.5, SANA-Video, Wan2.2)
- Robot-policy and action models (e.g. π0, GR00T-N1.7, DreamZero-DROID, InternVLA-A1)
