Announcing BFGMiner 3.10, the modular ASIC/FPGA miner written in C. BFGMiner features dynamic clocking, monitoring, and remote interface capabilities.
"St. Barbara's Faithfully Glorified Mining Initiative Naturally Exceeding Rivals", or just basically a freaking good miner.
This code is provided entirely free of charge by the programmer, so donations would be greatly appreciated.

READ THE README INCLUDED IN THE ARCHIVE BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS.
Also, please note that this thread is for discussion of BFGMiner, its features and bugs - if you feel the need to troll or talk off-topic, start another forum thread (and PM me with it if you want my attention).
If you want to help develop BFGMiner, the best way to get in touch with me is on IRC.
We also have a development mailing list, mainly used to pre-announce upcoming releases for third-party packagers.
If you would like to be notified of new versions, please join the announcement mailing list.
For miners using ModMiner, X6500, or ZTEX devices, you will need to download bitstreams for BFGMiner 3+ to work with your device. Download links and instructions are included in the README.FPGA file.

NEW VERSION 3.0.0, APRIL 5 2013
Please note that libcurl 7.29.0 has a socket leak with request failures, which can lead to BFGMiner running out of file descriptors and/or crashing if you have a dead pool! All older and newer versions of libcurl should be fine.
Also note that if you are compiling from git yourself, you must manually run configure after autogen.sh - it is no longer run automatically to be consistent with how every other software package does this.
2.10.6 is also released and promoted to stable. Note it does not support ASICs.
Human readable changelog:New device driver for ASIC devices, including both Butterfly Labs' BitForce SC and Avalon.Enhanced device driver API, enabling devices to asynchronously handle multiple slave processors. Use --show-processors to view each individually (not yet supported for Avalon).You can now use --request-diff <difficulty> to ask for a specific share target from pools that support BIP 23 GBT Basic Pool Extensions.Support for submitting found blocks to a local Bitcoin GBT server (bitcoind or Bitcoin-Qt with -server flag): just append #allblocks to the end of your bitcoind's URI.Stratum connection resuming support - if you lose an active stratum connection, BFGMiner will attempt to resubmit any lost shares when it reconnects.Android target support. You will have to compile it yourself, but it should just work - no patching needed.New Python RPC client example from Christian Berendt.

pool where the connection has been interrupted.Close any existing stratum socket if we are attempting to restart stratum so the pool knows the connection has gone.Show mechanism of stratum
