Yes, "Dec 13, 2018 @ 3339a51" is the latest version (for the NewPac).
While we're on the topic:
Here's info on an updated version of the cgminer gekko driver (363d879, branch: r606), prepping for the Terminus R606.
Opening to early adopters. Neat new options, with lots of bugs pre-squashed, (but probably not fully bug free).
To install:
#rename the existing cgminer folder then...
git clone -b r606 https://github.com/vthoang/cgminer.git
cd cgminer
CFLAGS="-O2" ./autogen.sh --enable-gekko
make -j 2

cgminer-4.11.1-windows-gekko-9e51f0b.7zChanges:
- Merged in upstream cgminer.
- Added initial support for Terminus R606
- Added self preservation / performance tuning code:
leverages the
standard stages of hash performance as frequency increase: | normal | peak | pleateau (80-90% peak - stress or "no nonces") | no hashing |
this code update will step back from pleateau into peak.
+ okay to slightly over estimate frequency, it will back down to best healthy hashrate.
+ 5-10% increase in hashrate as you return to peak
+ adjust with "--gekko-tune-down" to suit your needs. [90-95]% is a healthy range, 95 is default, set to 0 to disable.
1. Adjusts frequency according to each miner's unique charateristics
2. To keep a hash performance above 95%.
3. Based on the idea that (95% of 275MHz) hashes better than (80% of 300MHz)
- Modified asic-boost pool startup sequence.
+ cleared issue sending AB stratum message on non AB pools.
+ if pool indicates AB is supported, AB will be enabled.
+ removed option "--gekko-newpac-boost", use "--gekko-noboost" to force non AB mode.
+ added [plus] flag after chip count to indicate asic-boost is functioning.
@0d524aa
+ tune rx buffer handling.
+ drop vmask param when noboost is enabled. better support for non compatible vmask implementation (prohashing.com)
@ef74c27
+ fix statline overflow
@a62385f
+ works with all tested AB pools below
+ added lowboost mode
@9e51f0b + performance improvements
+ bug fixes
