sgminer: Baikal Giant X10 / N / B - Open Source - Confirmed OC Giant B!

[cod3gen]

Been trying to get WOLF. on board since Jan. He doesn't want to tell his secrets.

Isnt Wolf a CN guy? Dont believe those have any interest of ASICs... :-)

I got it! Thank you!

Great!

Currently, Pascal and Decred is not working on Giant B with this SG Miner. If anyone come up with a solution for that, let me know.

So basically this open source project is all the Giant X10/N/B codes merged together by yourself?

Edit: Read the earlier posts.

Yes, this sgminer can be used on all three.

Hi.

So far as the journey goes with the X10.

1. Overclocking = FAIL
2. Groestle = FAIL

At this present time???

I hope that I am wrong!!!

Would love to have these babies kicking ass again!

thanks

So it is time to turn on the oscilloscope to study the protocol between STM and ASICs.

I say someone figured it out and keeping hush hush, look at the GroestlCoin difficutly between now and last week. https://whattomine.com/coins/48-grs-groestl

Either that, or Baikal have started mining Groestl (then we might see an update in ~3 months) :-O

Cod3gen, tried to send you a pm but you are not accepting from newbies. I have something Very interesting regarding X10.

[wholly]

Please do tell~~

Cheers

Should be good to go now.

plz .. let me know how update Firmware (STM Chip) files..

I couldn't find it.
Is that update firmware for STM Chip?

[xxALEXANDRxx]

Incorrect link to STM Chip firmware is now updated. Also included is multiple firmwares i have received from others.

Hello! Tell me please, in this way, I get the firmware of my STM chip ?   https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2790982.msg29642597#msg29642597  

I just created a python script to do it.  Just duplicate one of the python files in /usr/bin/ and paste this code into it.  Then, if successful, then result will reside as /home/baikal/GX10 (Extracted).bin

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import subprocess
import os
import sys
from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
import fcntl
import time
import glob

tmpfile = '/home/baikal/GX10 (Extracted).bin'
USBDEVFS_RESET= 21780

# enter dfu mode
def enter_dfumode():
  subprocess.call('sudo /opt/scripta/startup/miner-stop.sh', shell=True)
  subprocess.call('echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio_sw/PA18/data', shell=True)
  subprocess.call('echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio_sw/PA10/data', shell=True)
  subprocess.call('echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio_sw/PA10/data', shell=True)

  subprocess.call('echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio_sw/PA10/data', shell=True)
  subprocess.call('echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio_sw/PA10/data', shell=True)

def reset_usb(driver):
  try:
    lsusb_out = Popen("lsusb | grep -i %s"%driver, shell=True, bufsize=64, stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, close_fds=True).stdout.read().strip().split()
    bus = lsusb_out[1]
    device = lsusb_out[3][:-1]
    f = open("/dev/bus/usb/%s/%s"%(bus, device), 'w', os.O_WRONLY)
    fcntl.ioctl(f, USBDEVFS_RESET, 0)
  except Exception, msg:
    print ""

def extract_firmware():
  print "Extracting firmware..."
  cmd = 'sudo dfu-util -a 0 -d 0483:df11 -s 0x08000000:leave -U ' + tmpfile
  subprocess.call(cmd, shell=True)
  #n = os.path.getsize(fwfile[0])
  #cmd = 'cmp '+ fwfile[0] + ' ' + tmpfile + ' -n ' + str(n)
  #ret = subprocess.call(cmd, shell=True)
  #subprocess.call('sudo rm -rf /home/baikal/tmp.bin', shell=True)
  #return ret
 
enter_dfumode()

Baikal is now supplying a update for X10, including X11-Gost and NIST5 algo`s :-D

As usual, sgminer source code is not available from Baikal.

EDIT:
Oh, they also say more algo`s to come - we know what those are :-)

thank you.

I have giant B on hand..
Is it okay to use this?

That is to extract firmware from the device. There is already software to write to stm chip on Orange Pi. Why do you need to write new firmware to STM chip?

Can someone test something? From the new x10 Update, once you update, can you extract the new sgminer file. And then place it on a previous x10 version overwriting the sgminer only? Want to see if there were other changes needed or just a new correctly compiled sgminer file for it to work? Since there were no other firmware updates needed for the new algos to work.
