Krypta:

I've seen that before as well, I didn't change it, but it sure looks like it shouldn't even compile!
I haven't tried the alterations yet, but will do so when I come home!

UPDATE: It works great, increase on both 6870's from 287 to 296 (> 3%!)

Anyone tried this using guiminer?  I can see the file but not sure if I just edit the portion:

// Ma can also be implemented in terms of BFI_INT...
   #define Ma(x, y, z) amd_bytealign((y), (x | z), (z & x))

This patch works fine with guiminer as well. And yes, just edit the portion you posted.

Seeing all these success stories makes me wonder if the file i downloaded was actually assembled correctly.
When apply this little 'tweak'
my mh/sec rate increses by seeming 2mhash/s per 6870 core But, the value at what im hashing at jumps all the fuck over the place. like 20-150-270-279-410-4-89.
It's rediculos

Yup, T'was compiled wrong.

Everyone update your GUIminer client
This beautiful tweak fix has been intergrated into the newest update, No weird fiddling required

And i can confirm that i've gained 10mh/s/core now 6870BE

It works really well:: +3MHs on my 5770 at stock frequencies.

Krypta - it looks like r0() and r1() aren't used; try deleting them if you like.

Note that they aren't used by the phatk kernel that I've got, and even though I can't think of circumstances in which r0() will compile correctly, still, be careful if your kernel is different!

Thank you bitless, it seems you are right, they are never used, so I really don't know why these modifications halved my stales.

Here's another strange thing:

Code:
256 Vals[0]=H[0];
257 Vals[1]=H[1];
258 Vals[2]=H[2];
259 Vals[3]=H[3];
260 Vals[4]=H[4];
261 Vals[5]=H[5];
262 Vals[6]=H[6];
263 Vals[7]=H[7];
264
265 Vals[7] = 0xb0edbdd0 + K[0] + W[64] + 0x08909ae5U;
266 Vals[3] = 0xa54ff53a + 0xb0edbdd0 + K[0] + W[64];

I think we can comment out

Code:
259 //Vals[3]=H[3];
263 //Vals[7]=H[7];

because they are changed on lines 265 and 266 before they are used, am I right?

Thanks.

You may be right. May I suggest you run the kernel analyzer and see the disasm of both versions and see if the generated code is any different?

(This is because things like x=1; x=2; x=3; are easily converted by the compiler to just x=3;  )

You are right, it's the same  Wink

No improvement then...

wow, thanks.

each of my cards is making 357 now instead of 347. I thought these kernels were optimized to the max.

my GPU usage (and thus hashrate) has always fluctuated like a small sine wave from 99% - 90% , after this patch, they all stay a straight line 99% , so that's way more than a 3% increase in hashrate for me.
What's weird, mine went from 90%-96% to 96% straight but the added performance adds 1.5C to the temperature, I might have to clock down a bit to get tot he previous 90C stable line, which means I am forfeiting the benefits of the above optimization. At least I use less energy, the Earth will thank us all...

You're still being more efficient and saving money by using less energy. His optimization made your load a constant 96% instead of 90%-96%, so your GPU has less time to cool. You should still get as many hashes as you did before, if not more, plus less energy Cheesy

Did you guys try my phatk kernel-mod from here: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=25135.0
I really would like to get some feedback Smiley.

Thanks,
Dia

Did anybody experience more rejected packages? I used to be a 99.xx% guy, but now I'm down to 96.5 - 97%. I'm talking about 6 workers on 2 different systems. Coincidence?

This worked for me on all my cards. Roughly 2-4% on 3x 6850's, 5870, and 5770. Thanks!

Hmmm, that's a helluva rate for a 5830.  Can you share your voltage, GPU, and RAM clocks please?
