| GGML_SYCL_ENABLE_FLASH_ATTN | 1 (default) or 0| Enable Flash-Attention. It can reduce memory usage. The performance impact depends on the LLM.|
| GGML_SYCL_ENABLE_OPT | 0 or 1 (default)| Enable optimize features for Intel GPUs. (Recommended to 0 for Intel devices older than Gen 10) |
| GGML_SYCL_ENABLE_GRAPH | 0 (default) or 1 | Enable running computations through SYCL Graphs feature. Disabled by default because SYCL Graph is still on development, no better performance. |
| GGML_SYCL_ENABLE_HOST_PINNED_MEM | 0 or 1 (default) | Enable host pinned memory to speed up copy data from host to device. When disable it, host memory will common malloc() on CPU.|
| GGML_SYCL_ENABLE_HOST_PINNED_MEM | 0 or 1 (default) | Enable host pinned memory to speed up copy data from host to device. When disable it, host memory will common malloc() on CPU. Disable it when use `--load-model mlock`.|
| GGML_SYCL_HOST_PINNED_MEM_2G | 0 (default) or 1 | Limit the max memory allocation to be no more than 2GB when enable host pinned memory. USM allocations above 2 GiB take the relaxed/large-allocation path, which serializes H2D copies with compute and prevents copy/compute overlap. It will impact the startup time. Need more test. Depend on `GGML_SYCL_ENABLE_HOST_PINNED_MEM=1`.|
| GGML_SYCL_GET_MEM_API | 0 (default) or 1 | Set to get memory info (free, total) by Level Zero or SYCL API:<br>0 - Level Zero API: support more GPUs, only run on Level Zero running time. When there is an error, fallback to call SYCL API. Depend on GGML_SYCL_SUPPORT_LEVEL_ZERO_API.<br>1 - SYCL API: legacy, support more running time, it can't get the free size of some GPUs (like Arc770). In such case, return total size for free size.|
| GGML_SYCL_USE_LEVEL_ZERO_API | 1 (default) or 0 | Use Level Zero API for device memory allocation instead of SYCL. Reduces system RAM usage on Intel dGPUs by avoiding DMA-buf/TTM host memory staging. Requires GGML_SYCL_SUPPORT_LEVEL_ZERO_API=ON at build time. SYCL backend always runs on Level Zero running time even if it's set as OFF (The SYCL api will be usage for memory allocation).|
| GGML_SYCL_ENABLE_DNN | 0 or 1 (default)| Enable running computations through oneDNN and always use oneMKL. |
