# Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct-RKLLM

RKLLM-converted versions of Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct for Rockchip RK3576 and RK3588.

`.rkllm` files require the Rockchip RKLLM runtime and cannot be loaded directly with Transformers, llama.cpp, or Ollama.

## Base Model

- Model: Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct
- Author: Alibaba Cloud Qwen Team
- Original Model: [Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct)
- Original License: Apache-2.0

## Supported Platforms

| SoC    | Status                   |
| ------ | ------------------------ |
| RK3576 | ✅ Tested                 |
| RK3588 | ✅ Supported (not tested) |

RK3576 has been tested. RK3588 is supported as a target platform but has not been board-tested because no RK3588 board is available.

## Conversion

- RKLLM Toolkit: 1.2.3
- Target Platforms: RK3576, RK3588

## Available Variants

| File                                                         | Quantization |

| [Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct_w8a8_RK3576.rkllm](RK3576/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct_w8a8_RK3576.rkllm) | W8A8         |
| [Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct_w8a8_RK3588.rkllm](RK3588/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct_w8a8_RK3588.rkllm) | W8A8         |

## Usage

Download the desired RKLLM model and deploy it with the RKLLM runtime on the matching RK3576 or RK3588 platform.

For faster deployment without setting up the environment manually, see [Hanzo-Huang/rkllm-docker](https://github.com/Hanzo-Huang/rkllm-docker).

### Docker Deployment

Use the model-specific image for the fastest deployment. The model is included in the image, so no separate model download is required:

```bash
sudo docker run --rm -it \
  --privileged \
  -p 8001:8001 \
  -v /dev:/dev \
  ghcr.io/hanzo-huang/rkllm-docker/qwen2.5-1.5b-instruct:w4a16-rk3576
```

Alternatively, use the reusable RKLLM environment image and mount a downloaded model:

```bash
sudo docker run --rm -it \
  --privileged \
  -p 8001:8001 \
  -v /dev:/dev \
  -v ./:/app/models:ro \
  -e MODEL_PATH=/app/models/RK3576/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct_w4a16_RK3576.rkllm \
  -e TARGET_PLATFORM=rk3576 \
  ghcr.io/hanzo-huang/rkllm-docker:env-latest
```

The second command requires downloading the selected `.rkllm` file first and setting `MODEL_PATH` to its mounted path. Use the matching image, model variant, and `TARGET_PLATFORM` for the target Rockchip SoC.
