build : do not use _GNU_SOURCE gratuitously (#1129)
* Do not use _GNU_SOURCE gratuitously.

What is needed to build whisper.cpp and examples is availability of
stuff defined in The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 6
(https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/) known also as
Single Unix Specification v3 (SUSv3) or POSIX.1-2001 + XSI extensions,
plus some stuff from BSD that is not specified in POSIX.1.

Well, that was true until NUMA support was added recently in ggml,
so enable GNU libc extensions for Linux builds to cover that.

There is no need to penalize musl libc which simply follows standards.

Not having feature test macros in source code gives greater flexibility
to those wanting to reuse it in 3rd party app, as they can build it with
minimal FTM (_XOPEN_SOURCE=600) or other FTM depending on their needs.

It builds without issues in Alpine (musl libc), Ubuntu (glibc), MSYS2.

* examples : include SDL headers before other headers

Avoid macOS build error when _DARWIN_C_SOURCE is not defined, brought by
SDL2 relying on Darwin extension memset_pattern4/8/16 (from string.h).

* make : enable BSD extensions for DragonFlyBSD to expose RLIMIT_MEMLOCK

* make : use BSD-specific FTMs to enable alloca on BSDs

* make : fix OpenBSD build by exposing newer POSIX definitions

* cmake : follow recent FTM improvements from Makefile

talk-llama

Talk with an LLaMA AI in your terminal

Demo Talk

Building

The talk-llama tool depends on SDL2 library to capture audio from the microphone. You can build it like this:

# Install SDL2 on Linux
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev

# Install SDL2 on Mac OS
brew install sdl2

# Build the "talk-llama" executable
make talk-llama

# Run it
./talk-llama -mw ./models/ggml-small.en.bin -ml ../llama.cpp/models/13B/ggml-model-q4_0.bin -p "Georgi" -t 8
  • The -mw argument specifies the Whisper model that you would like to use. Recommended base or small for real-time experience
  • The -ml argument specifies the LLaMA model that you would like to use. Read the instructions in https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp for information about how to obtain a ggml compatible LLaMA model

Session

The talk-llama tool supports session management to enable more coherent and continuous conversations. By maintaining context from previous interactions, it can better understand and respond to user requests in a more natural way.

To enable session support, use the --session FILE command line option when running the program. The talk-llama model state will be saved to the specified file after each interaction. If the file does not exist, it will be created. If the file exists, the model state will be loaded from it, allowing you to resume a previous session.

This feature is especially helpful for maintaining context in long conversations or when interacting with the AI assistant across multiple sessions. It ensures that the assistant remembers the previous interactions and can provide more relevant and contextual responses.

Example usage:

./talk-llama --session ./my-session-file -mw ./models/ggml-small.en.bin -ml ../llama.cpp/models/13B/ggml-model-q4_0.bin -p "Georgi" -t 8

TTS

For best experience, this example needs a TTS tool to convert the generated text responses to voice. You can use any TTS engine that you would like - simply edit the speak script to your needs. By default, it is configured to use MacOS's say or Windows SpeechSynthesizer, but you can use whatever you wish.
