RPC Miners (CPU/4way/CUDA/OpenCL)

[puddinpop]

Here's some RPC miners for all those mining via RPC.  There's a CPU miner based on the Crypto++ code, a 4way miner using the 4way code included with Bitcoin, and a CUDA and OpenCL miner.  The included readme.txt has instructions on how to supply arguments to the miners.  Supplying a -help argument to the executable will show you the available options as well.

Want these miners as a screensaver?  See this thread.

RPC Miner Source

Use the CUDA miner for NVidia cards.
Use the OpenCL miner for ATI cards.
Use CMake to compile from the source.

Tweaking command line parameters for the CUDA and OpenCL miners will be necessary if you want to get optimum performance.

Just checked for compatibility with the server http://mining.bitcoin.cz/ and it works fine!
I think slush should add link to these miners on his website. Done a really great job!

What are the best settings for a  ATI 5850m ?

Ps: Your program is running fine good job

Play with the -aggression, -gputhreads, and -gpugrid parameters.

Even though it shows 18000+ khash, 10 times more than cpu generation, i dont get any hash found even i run for hours.
I have nvidia zotac geforce 9400GT 1GB graphics card with driver from zotac. Version 258.96.
I don't understand what is the problem.
I even tried 260 version nvidia driver, still same.
Any one know solution?
Also every time i start bitcoin 0.3.19 ,  i get wxWidgets debug alert
But cancelling allows bitcoin to work correctly , send & receive bitcoins.
Some one help to solve problem.
Thanks.

Help needed for rpcminer

Use the CUDA miner for NVidia cards.  The OpenCL kernel code was unable to compile on your system, that's why it doesn't work.

[puddinpop]

The first post has been updated with a new release.  Now you can specify how often work gets requested from the server, and you can specify a url to show server stats in the client.

You can try to edit the cmake generated makefiles with the workaround found in this thread

Now i got second problem:

If I turn off GUI compilation, I get this:

Could you make binary package please?
P.S Błąd means Error

[puddinpop]

If I turn off GUI compilation, I get this:

http://pastebin.com/spHtyDcD

Turn off the daemon compilation as well.  You only need the RPC miner.  Although you will run into the same issue with the miner, see below for the workaround that should compile.  GCC doesn't seem to support returning an iterator as the result of an erase on a container.

In rpcminerclient.cpp, replace the CleanupOldBlocks() method with this

Code:

void RPCMinerClient::CleanupOldBlocks()
{
	std::vector<int64> m_erase;

	for(std::map<int64,std::pair<int64,std::vector<unsigned char> > >::iterator i=m_blocklookup.begin(); i!=m_blocklookup.end(); i++)
	{
		if((*i).second.first<GetTimeMillis()-60000)
		{
			m_erase.push_back((*i).first);
		}
	}

	for(std::vector<int64>::const_iterator i=m_erase.begin(); i!=m_erase.end(); i++)
	{
		m_blocklookup.erase((*i));
	}
}

Could you make binary package please?

There's a windows binary in the first post.  All other platforms need to compile for themselves.

If I will get some BTC soon, I will donate it to you for sure.

It looks like it's still trying to build the remote miner.  You can edit the CMakeLists.txt file in the top directory, and turn off all the options except the RPC miner and the CUDA option if that's what you want.

[uncaer9]

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:65 (MESSAGE):
  Nothing to build.  You must build the GUI, Daemon, or Remote Miner.

I just need working GPU Miner compatible with slush's pooled mining. I already tried Diablo's Miner, but openCL freezes my desktop.

You can safely remove the line from the CMakeLists.txt file where that message appears.

I've updated the source package in the first post with some of the compile fixes.  I think I got most of the issues in your paste, but I don't understand why this error happens here.

Code:

Maybe some of the other fixes will resolve this as well.

Trying to run the binaries on Windows it gives an error saying that OpenLDAP.DLL is missing. Should that be included in the .zip file?
