Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Some older llama-server installations may fail to start with flash attention enabled. Upgrading the server or disabling flash attention is a workaround, so the compatibility limitation is bounded but should be addressed or accepted. Pre-merge checks |

llama.cpp historical --flash-attn bare flag accepts value on parser version
💡 Result:
If by **“bare flag accepts a value”** you mean `--flash-attn on|off|auto`:
- **Before the parser refactor (#9308; merged September 7, 2024):** it was documented as a boolean switch—bare `-fa` / `--flash-attn` enabled Flash Attention, with no value shown. ([dev.modelhub.org.cn](https://dev.modelhub.org.cn/EngineX-Ascend/enginex-ascend-910-llama.cpp/blame/commit/624207e676ab5eb3ce7af631902bb45fb73a8359/tools/server/README.md))
- **After that refactor:** the argument is registered with an optional `[on|off|auto]` value, so the parser accepts forms such as `--flash-attn on`; the newer help gives `auto` as the default. ([docs.rs](https://docs.rs/crate/llama-cpp-sys-2/latest/source/llama.cpp/common/arg.cpp))
So the historical cutover is the **#9308 parser-refactor era**. The sources establish the old documented syntax and the later implementation; they don’t establish the exact first commit where a value became accepted. A particular release/build may differ.

llama.cpp before PR 9308 arg.cpp --flash-attn parser rejects extra argument on
💡 Result:
Yes. **Before PR #9308, `--flash-attn` was a flag with no value**, so `--flash-attn on` could leave `on` as an unexpected extra argument. The PR’s diff shows it registered as a no-argument option that simply enables Flash Attention. Use `--flash-attn` (or `-fa`) on those builds—not `--flash-attn on`. (GitHub pull request 9308 in ggml-org/llama.cpp (link omitted to avoid creating a cross-reference))
PR #9308 merged on **September 7, 2024** and refactored the argument parser; the cited diff confirms the flag behavior, but doesn’t establish the exact error wording for every pre-PR revision. (GitHub pull request 9308 in ggml-org/llama.cpp (link omitted to avoid creating a cross-reference))

Handle pre-#9308 llama-server parsers before enabling flash attention.
The documented installation requires only that llama-server be available on PATH, and find_server_binary() selects it without checking its version. When flash_attn is enabled, _build_cmd() passes --flash-attn on. Pre-#9308 llama.cpp builds define --flash-attn as a bare flag, so they can reject on as an unexpected argument and exit before serving.
Detect the parser capability and emit the compatible form, or reject unsupported binaries with a clear minimum-version error before starting the server.
