Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/6045

When reading the API Docs many options are listed with no visible explanation for what they do. The only explanation I could find here explains some, but more advanced ones are not explained anywhere it seems.

Since I am to make Langchains ChatOllama more feature complete, I require these explanations for the necessary doc-strings.

Most of them are llama.cpp options which are passed through. Some have a different name but also map on to llama.cpp options.
