realizar 0.3.2

//! Quantization and dequantization for model weights
//!
//! Implements quantization formats used by GGUF models:
//! - `F16`: 16-bit IEEE 754 half-precision
//! - `Q4_0`: 4-bit quantization (block size 32)
//! - `Q4_1`: 4-bit with scale and min (block size 32)
//! - `Q5_0`: 5-bit quantization (block size 32)
//! - `Q5_1`: 5-bit with scale and min (block size 32)
//! - `Q8_0`: 8-bit quantization (block size 32)
//! - `Q4_K`: 4-bit K-quantization (super-block size 256)
//! - `Q5_K`: 5-bit K-quantization (super-block size 256)
//! - `Q6_K`: 6-bit K-quantization (super-block size 256)
//!
//! ## `Q4_0` Format
//!
//! `Q4_0` stores weights in blocks of 32 values:
//! - 1 float32 scale factor per block
//! - 16 bytes of 4-bit quantized values (2 values per byte)
//! - Dequantization: `value = scale * quantized_value`
//!
//! ## `Q8_0` Format
//!
//! `Q8_0` stores weights in blocks of 32 values:
//! - 1 float32 scale factor per block
//! - 32 int8 quantized values
//! - Dequantization: `value = scale * quantized_value`
//!
//! ## `Q4_K` Format
//!
//! `Q4_K` uses super-blocks of 256 values divided into 8 blocks of 32 values:
//! - 1 half-precision super-block scale (`d`)
//! - 1 half-precision super-block min (`dmin`)
//! - 12 bytes of 6-bit block scales (packed)
//! - 128 bytes of 4-bit quantized values
//! - Dequantization: `value = d * scale * quantized - dmin * min`
//! - Achieves 4.5 bits per weight with better quality than `Q4_0`
//!
//! ## `Q5_K` Format
//!
//! `Q5_K` uses super-blocks of 256 values divided into 8 blocks of 32 values:
//! - 1 half-precision super-block scale (`d`)
//! - 1 half-precision super-block min (`dmin`)
//! - 12 bytes of 6-bit block scales (packed)
//! - 32 bytes of high bits (1 bit per value for 5-bit quantization)
//! - 128 bytes of low 4-bit quantized values
//! - Dequantization: `value = d * scale * quantized - dmin * min`
//! - Achieves 5.5 bits per weight (higher quality than `Q4_K`)
//!
//! ## `Q6_K` Format
//!
//! `Q6_K` uses super-blocks of 256 values divided into 16 blocks of 16 values:
//! - 1 half-precision super-block scale (`d`)
//! - 16 bytes of 8-bit block scales
//! - 64 bytes of high 2 bits (2 bits per value for 6-bit quantization)
//! - 128 bytes of low 4-bit quantized values
//! - Dequantization: `value = d * scale * quantized`
//! - Achieves 6.5625 bits per weight (highest quality K-quant format)

// ============================================================================

//
// Per llama-cpp-style-performance-spec.md:

// - ULP tolerance of ≤4 for numerical equivalence (Goldberg [9])

///
/// Computes the dot product of Q4_K quantized weights with f32 activations
/// WITHOUT allocating an intermediate f32 buffer. Dequantization happens
/// inline, accumulating directly into a register.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `q4k_data` - Raw Q4_K quantized data (super-blocks of 144 bytes)
/// * `activations` - f32 activation values (must match dequantized length)
///
/// # Returns
///

///
/// # Errors
///
/// Returns error if:
/// - `q4k_data` length is not a multiple of 144 bytes (super-block size)
/// - `activations` length doesn't match the number of quantized values
///
/// # Performance
///
/// This function reduces memory traffic by 8x compared to separate

/// - Naive: Read Q4_K (4.5 bits) → Write f32 (32 bits) → Read f32 → Compute
/// - Fused: Read Q4_K (4.5 bits) → Compute in registers
///

/// - **Multi-core**: Linear speedup up to memory bandwidth saturation
