Announcements

  • Windows ARM32 support has been dropped at the source code level.
  • Python version >=3.8 is now required for build.bat/build.sh (previously >=3.7). Note: If you have Python version <3.8, you can bypass the tools and use CMake directly.
  • The onnxruntime-mobile Android package and onnxruntime-mobile-c/onnxruntime-mobile-objc iOS cocoapods are being deprecated. Please use the onnxruntime-android Android package, and onnxruntime-c/onnxruntime-objc cocoapods, which support ONNX and ORT format models and all operators and data types. Note: If you require a smaller binary size, a custom build is required. See details on creating a custom Android or iOS package on Custom build | onnxruntime.

Build System & Packages

  • CoreML execution provider now depends on coremltools.
  • Flatbuffers has been upgraded from 1.12.0 → 23.5.26.
  • ONNX has been upgraded from 1.15 → 1.16.
  • EMSDK has been upgraded from 3.1.51 → 3.1.57.
  • Intel neural_speed library has been upgraded from v0.1.1 → v0.3 with several important bug fixes.
  • There is a new onnxruntime_CUDA_MINIMAL CMake option for building ONNX Runtime CUDA execution provider without any operations apart from memcpy ops.
  • Added support for Catalyst for macOS build support.
  • Added initial support for RISC-V and three new build options for it: --rv64, --riscv_toolchain_root, and --riscv_qemu_path.
  • Now you can build TensorRT EP with protobuf-lite instead of the full version of protobuf.
  • Some security-related compile/link flags have been moved from the default setting → new build option: --use_binskim_compliant_compile_flags. Note: All our release binaries are built with this flag, but when building ONNX Runtime from source, this flag is default OFF.
  • Windows ARM64 build now depends on PyTorch CPUINFO library.
  • Windows OneCore build now uses “Reverse forwarding” apisets instead of “Direct forwarding”, so onnxruntime.dll in our Nuget packages will depend on kernel32.dll. Note: Windows systems without kernel32.dll need to have reverse forwarders (see API set loader operation - Win32 apps | Microsoft Learn for more information).

Core

  • Added ONNX 1.16 support.
  • Added additional optimizations related to Dynamo-exported models.
  • Improved testing infrastructure for EPs developed as shared libraries.
  • Exposed Reserve() in OrtAllocator to allow custom allocators to work when session.use_device_allocator_for_initializers is specified.
  • Improved lock contention due to memory allocations.
  • Improved session creation time (graph and graph transformer optimizations).
  • Added new SessionOptions config entry to disable specific transformers and rules.
  • [C# API] Exposed SessionOptions.DisablePerSessionThreads to allow sharing of threadpool between sessions.
  • [Java API] Added CUDA 12 Java support.

Performance

  • Improved 4bit quant support:
    • Added HQQ quantization support to improve accuracy.
    • Implemented general GEMM kernel and improved GEMV kernel performance on GPU.
    • Improved GEMM kernel quality and performance on x64.
    • Implemented general GEMM kernel and improved GEMV performance on ARM64.
  • Improved MultiheadAttention performance on CPU.

  • OpenVINO

    • Added support for up to OpenVINO 2024.1.
    • Added support for importing pre-compiled blob as EPContext blob.
    • Separated device and precision as inputs by removing support for device_id in provider options and adding precision as separate CLI option.
    • Deprecated CPU_FP32 and GPU_FP32 terminology and introduced CPU and GPU terminology.
    • AUTO:GPU,CPU will only create GPU blob, not CPU blob.

  • DirectML

    • Additional ONNX operator support: Resize-18 and Resize-19, Col2Im-18, InNaN-20, IsInf-20, and ReduceMax-20.
    • Additional contrib op support: SimplifiedLayerNormalization, SkipSimplifiedLayerNormalization, QLinearAveragePool, MatMulIntegerToFloat, GroupQueryAttention, DynamicQuantizeMatMul, and QAttention.
