[Feature Request]: Add support for Intel Ultra NPUs (AI Boost)
Is there an existing issue for this?
- [X] I have searched the existing issues and checked the recent builds/commits
What would your feature do ?
It would be interesting if NPUs from the new Intel Ultra processor range were added to the list of available devices. When I tested the OpenVINO toolkit, I saw that it was already supported, so why not add it to Stable diffusion Web UI?
Proposed workflow
Simply add the NPU to the device list
Additional information
No response
Do you think it'll work without any additional tweaks other than adding the device to the list?
Can you see "NPU" in the list if you run python -c "from openvino import Core; print(Core().available_devices)"?
It seems like they just get the list from your system. If you don't see NPU by using the command above, I guess you lack the drivers. https://github.com/openvinotoolkit/stable-diffusion-webui/blob/e5a634da06c62d72dbdc764b16c65ef3408aa588/scripts/openvino_accelerate.py#L1203
I can't check it myself because I'm on OpenSUSE, and I don't know if there's a way to install drivers on OSs other than Ubuntu.
Can you see "NPU" in the list if you run
python -c "from openvino import Core; print(Core().available_devices)"?
I saw "NPU" after running the command you mentioned, but "NPU" does not appear in SD Web UI.
p.s. Tested on Windows 11 with Intel Ultra 9 185H.
NPU show up when upgrade openvino to 2024.4. but cannot get result with many torch.compile error.

the requirement_version.txt require openvino version 2023.2, change to 2024.5 will work, but it will got torch.compile error
