WildRig: new miner for Wild Keccak algo

[HonestAbeX1]

I was previously running 0.9.7 and getting rejected shares in the 3%-4% range which is not out of line.  However, now running both 0.9.7 and 0.9.14 the rejected shares have sky rocketed to the 10% to 10.5% range.  Just wondering what has recently happened? Occurs now on both my AMD 560/580 rigs.

Man, this is too high values. Even 3%-4% not good. Can you update to newer version? 0.9.16 should reduce a bit. Also, what intensity do you use?

Okay, I recheck and on my 3-560/1-580 rig it was 11.5% rejected shares running 0.9.7 and on the 1-560/5-580 rig it was 1.3% rejection running 0.9.14.

I just load and running 0.9.16 and so far after submitting 500 shares the 3-560/1-580 rig now has 1% rejected shares and the other rig down to just 0.5% rejected shares.  So looking good.

I run the 560s at 256 and 580s at 512 intensity respectively.

The other odd quirk is I tested port 7777 on the slower 5 Mh/s rig (3-560/1-580) and it cannot hash at all with 0.9.16 ... only works on port 5555 on Purk pool.

Okay, after some further testing some weird stuff occurs.

One rig (3-560/1-580) hashes away just fine for nearly 1,000 submitted shares after 3.5 hours at just 1% rejection rate and around that time suddenly the rejection rate sky rockets with lots of "low difficulty shares" rejected and also "stale shares ... ignore it" that take the rejection rate above 10%.  I basically just close and restart the miner and it likely will be fine again for the initial few hours.

On my other rig (1-560/5-580) it is working a bit better at also roughly 1% rejection rate, but then encountered inability to find mining pools and some disconnects/reconnects including a 3 minute span that resulted in over 30 rejected shares consecutively that caused the miner to restart.

Cannot figure out how to paste a picture so here is some text on the errors:

Released 0.9.17 beta
- moved scratchpad update into a better place, this should decrease amount of "Low difficulty" shares before "new job"
- added general uptime value to API

This one is weird. Seems I need more testing with official Purk pool, and probably do something with gpu mixed rigs. Can you please try new version?

[abudfv2008]

I have 2 identical rigs with 1060/6. Run the same bat, but get ~1400h/s per GPU on one of them and only ~1000h/s on another.

Are you sure that overclocking settings are the same and MSI Afterburner(or what do you use) applied them? Also which one manufacturer of memory on cards in GPU-Z, and what bandwidth there, is it equal?

I ran the 0.9.17 version overnight and after 10 hours and nearly 5,000 shares accepted, the rig (that previously had the 10%+ rejected shares rate) only had 1.5% rejected shares.  So seems a lot better.  Will continue running it for few days to reassess.  Now I will also run it on the 5-580/1-560 rig and monitor that.  Thanks for all of the updates and keep up the hard work … it is getting there!

[andrucrypt]

Minor update, 0.9.18 beta
- fixed --no-watchdog parameter, now it should work
- set timeout for watchdog to 30 seconds now
- now if downloading speed of scratchpad is 512 bytes for more than 30 seconds, miner will restart downloading it

[locbet]

WildRig 0.9.18 beta

Download for Windows
(dependencies: Visual C++ Redistributable 2015 x64)

Download for Linux
(dependencies: libcurl4, libuv1, libmicrohttpd10)

Custom package for HiveOS
(dependencies: libcurl4, libuv1, libmicrohttpd10)

all version can be found here

difference from minerd and ccminer:
- better hashrate on poolside for NVIDIA cards(because of more accepted shares). AMD can get some improvement too, but less significant, still gathering some statistics
- no 100% load of CPU core per NVIDIA card like in minerd
- fast scratchpad update(less hashrate drop when new addendum blocks received)
- no limit for amount of GPU's as in minerd
- watchdog(see description for --no-watchdog parameter)
- new interface
- API to check miner stats via web

hashrate clarification: as described above, for NVIDIA's there can be good improvement on poolside. But only if you use a rig. One card will be fine with minerd and ccminer(in some cases can be fine even with 2-3). In miner itself most of the time hashrate will be +/- with that you can get with other miners.

known issues:
- all shares are Low difficulty on some old hardware with OpenCL 1.x support(like Radeon HD7xxx, but GeForce 750Ti doing great). Try to use new option --opencl-force1x

Testing and reporting issues are welcome!

coins:
- Boolberry
- Purk

dev-fee:
currently 2% only, fully compensates on NVIDIA's because of improvements. For AMD cards still gathering some statistics to decide lowering dev-fee for those cards.

TODO:
- miner uptime value in API(in addition to connection uptime)(done, will be in next build)
- improvements for scratchpad management(work in progress)
- HiveOS integration(work in progress, have some troubles with stats...)
- ADL/NVML for monitoring videocards health
- open source some day once all things will be done good

Example of config.json for two videocards:

Code: (json)

{
    "background": false,
    "colors": true,
    "donate-level": 0,     // default donation level is 2%, you can increase it if you want :D
    "log-file": null,      // set it to "log.txt" if needed
    "print-time": 60,      // print time for hashrate statistics
    "print-full": false,   // print hashrate for each videocard
    "print-level": 1,      // level of info to be printed. 1 - default, 2 - some additional info like scratchpad updates, 3 - packets "send to"/"recieved from" pool

    "retries": 1000,
    "retry-pause": 10,     // time before reconnect
    "max-rejects": 16,     // number of one by one rejects after which miner will reconnect to the pool
    "job-timeout": 60,     // timeout for absence of new job from pool in sec. before reconnect(can be useful on "beast" rigs)
    "no-watchdog": false,  // disable checking how long videocards are running OpenCL kernel(more than 5 sec. terminates the miner)

    "opencl-platform": 1,  // if you have no integrated GPU - change it to 0, or try 2 in some cases with AMD/NVIDIA in one PC

    "scratchpad-url": "http://eu-bbr.luckypool.io/scratchpad.bin",  // where miner can download scratchpad 
    "scratchpad-file": "scratchpad.bin", // where to save it(including file name), use double \\ if you want to set full path(Win only)

    "strategy": 0,         // 0 - devide work for equal parts for each card
                           // 1 - all cards working as one, can be better for static diff

    "threads":
    [
        // if you have more videocards, just copy section below more times and increase index for every new videocard
        {
            "index": 0,
            "intensity": 256,       // good point to start is 256, decent cards can use 1024, try different values. But don't set it high if hashrate is not increasing
            "worksize": 0,          // don't touch it if you don't know what is it :)
            "affine_to_cpu": false,
        },
        {
            "index": 1,
            "intensity": 256,
            "worksize": 0,
            "affine_to_cpu": false,
        },
    ],

    [
        // Currently no support for failover strategy using more than one pool
        {

            "user": "WALLET", // wallet address
            "pass": "", // password if it needed
        },
    ],

    // same as in XMRig
    "api":

        "access-token": null, // access token for API
        "worker-id": null     // custom worker-id for API
    }
}

Example of command-line start for two videocards(with loop if miner crash, or executing custom command if it exited because of videocard hangs for more than 5 sec.):

Code: (bat)

@echo off

:loop
wildrig.exe --opencl-platform=1 --opencl-devices=0,1 --opencl-launch=256x0 --url=bbr.luckypool.io:5577 --user=WALLET --pass=IFNEEDED --scratchpad-file=scratchpad.bin --scratchpad-url=http://eu-bbr.luckypool.io/scratchpad.bin
if ERRORLEVEL 1000 goto custom
timeout /t 5
goto loop

:custom
echo Custom command here
timeout /t 5
goto loop

If it fails, try different --opencl-platform parameter with values 0 or 2 instead of 1 used above. You can check available platforms - just run wildrig with parameter --print-platforms. Simplified example for Linux:

Code: (bash)

#!/bin/bash
while true
do
./wildrig --opencl-platform=1 --opencl-devices=0,1 --opencl-launch=256x0 --url=bbr.luckypool.io:5577 --user=WALLET --pass=IFNEEDED --scratchpad-file=scratchpad.bin --scratchpad-url=http://eu-bbr.luckypool.io/scratchpad.bin

what is luck(experimental value):
every videocard do some amount of hashes per iteration, and there should be done around diff(set by pool) hashes before miner will find a share. This will be 100% luck. If videocards do less hashes and find a share - luck will be above 100%, more - it will be lower than 100%. But because of random nature, luck is always differ. A lot of things have influence on luck, but if you get low numbers(after at least ~30 minutes statistic from start or dev-fee mining finished) take a look on:
- how good variable diff on pool. Giving you high difficulty jobs, which are not suitable for your hashpower can lead to less luck
- high intensity, more than needed for best hashrate, can lead to less luck in cases when miner got a new job, but videocard is still hashing and don't know about it. That last hashes will be wasted, also you can get stale share

optimal intensity:
try to set intesity as low as possible, but not lower than point where hashrate goes down a lot

optimal strategy:
if you use static diff, probably strategy set to 1 will be better in this case. At least it's true for my rigs with static diff set to hashrate_of_rig * 10(e.g. 4820kH/s rig uses diff 48000000).

Changelog:

Code:

0.9.18
- fixed --no-watchdog parameter, now it should work
- set timeout for watchdog to 30 seconds now
- now if downloading speed of scratchpad is 512 bytes for more than 30 seconds, miner will restart downloading it

0.9.17
- moved scratchpad update into a better place, this should decrease amount of "Low difficulty" shares before "new job"
- added general uptime value to API

0.9.16
- code much more safe now
- fixed problem with watchdog not working(there was a bug with reading parameter no-watchdog)

0.9.15
- improved watchdog, now it works separately and won't decrease hashrate for AMD's when use low intensity values
- improved scratchpad fail handling, now miner will try to reset it to state saved on disk and login again, only then redownload it if fail again
- added experimental parameter --opencl-force1x to support old hardware like Readon HD 7xxx

0.9.14
- fixed small memory leak
- implemented watchdog, now miner will exit with code 1000 if gpu hangs in OpenCL kernel for more than 5 sec.(can be disabled with parameter --no-watchdog)

0.9.13
- reworked strategy a bit, now nvidias should support 0 and 1 too. Changed default strategy to that used in other miners, should be better with vardiff
- fixed processing error "invalid miner height, re-download scratchpad", now miner definitely will redownload it 

0.9.12
- fixed "Duplicate share" error after donation mining finished, same was possible to reproduce with pause/resume commands

0.9.11
- new parameter --print-level
- more accurate luck calculation
- dynamic size for scratchpad buffer(no need in recompilation in future, less RAM used for PURK coin to mine :))

0.9.10
- now videocards sorted by BusID
- added luck calculation(need testing)
- fixed crash when logging and --print-full is used
- few more checks for scratchpad fails(also in some cases miner will reconnect if it failed and only then redownload it if this not solve the problem, need testing)

0.9.9:
- fixed JSON decode failed
- more checks for scratchpad failure

0.9.8:
- added validation scratchpad at start and redownloading it if needed
- now should work on old cards too
- added --job-timeout parameter, now miner will disconnect if there is no new job for some time and videocards found all shares(could help for "beast" rigs on Vega)
- a bit more safe code

0.9.7:
- fixed an issue when miner can't redownload scratchpad because of some accident on pool side and going into infinite loop

0.9.6:
- improved logic, now videocard will continue hash even if it waits for new job, just to avoid situation with lowering clocks. Will make something like powersave option later
- added parameter --max-rejects

"donate-level": 0,     // default donation level is 2%, you can increase it if you want not change always 2%. I'm try 2.5% --> tool always show 2%
Please add more function on Tool and API WEB:
1. Fan speed
2. GPU Temperature

Thanks

Unfortunately donate-level is not a float value.

Please add more function on Tool and API WEB:
1. Fan speed
2. GPU Temperature

Thanks

That is in my TODO list, so I will work on that soon.

Released 0.9.17 beta
- moved scratchpad update into a better place, this should decrease amount of "Low difficulty" shares before "new job"
- added general uptime value to API

It has always been C:\Users\tbear\AppData\Local\.cache\boolberry  with ccminer.
I'm still getting about the same amount of hashrate and shares as ccminer on usbbr.mining.blue. On other pools my hashrate goes all over the place on the pool with ccminer. Your app. should improve this.. but I didn't try it out yet on other pools. usbbr.mining.blue  pool owner worked on this with me.
