[ANN][X11/X13] X11 (Darkcoin)/X13 (Marucoin) miner (based on sph-sgminer)

[lasybear]

Open source (== NO HIDDEN MININGS) version of X11/X13 algo sgminer with separate kernels.

Upd. 2014-06-03

• Fix x13mod for AMD HD 5xxx/6xxx cards. Use for these cards "kernel" : "x13modold" in config file or -k x13modold from the command line. All parameters (intensity, threads etc) need to be tuned individually.
• A little improvement in hamsi kernel.
• Further fixes and improvements will be committed to innovative sgminer 5 only: https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/tree/v5_0.

Windows binaries (actual):

Upd. 2014-05-28

• Added x13mod (Marucoin, Boostcoin etc) support
• Increased time to SICK state
• Experimental: hashbuffer allocation depends of initial {i, xi, rawi}ntensity. Maybe increase a stability, maybe not...

Windows binaries (previous):

Mainly thanks, obviously, girino for his brilliant idea.

Thanks to Elun for actual Windows binaries.

Thanks to Remember remember the 5th of November for extracting kernels file from "girino's 2% fee version miner" and providing Windows binaries.

Increased time to SICK state (WTF? - read https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=623409.msg6949113#msg6949113)

## Mod x11 (separate kernels)

0. Use "kernel" : "x11mod" in config file or -k x11mod via command line.
1. In case of instability please set a little bit lower engine frequency than a original sgminer.

Do not hesitate to donate

Thanks for all.
Good mining )

Do not use thread concurrency higher than 15.

you mean intensity

is this based on the 2%fee version? you just removed that stupid fee?

Yes, sure. Thanks.

No (I haven't sources of  "2% fee" version).
Maybe algo is same.
One main difference -- my version is free.

[bestsponsor]

Please make a compiled version for windows.

[Starscream]

Sounds good but will need a Windows version as well as some software guru to check the code out, see that it's clean

[mapleshadow]

Thank you very much! No windows can run version?

Link to a Windows version compiled from this source code. Note, I have not inspected the source code. This was compiled as-is. https://www.dropbox.com/s/skv74wv378h5qnl/sgminerx11.rar

Tips are appreciated. Let me know if it runs or not.

[SpeedDemon13]

So, this one has the same performance as the 40~50% extra performance as the 2% fee one?

Yes, since it uses that modified OpenCL kernel.

when i start it, say that he can't find the x11mod for reading

File was incomplete, missing kernel

When I joined the kernel and run error

Oops, sorry. I was accustomed to releasing only binaries from other projects I totally forgot. Fixing now. Try it now. https://www.dropbox.com/s/skv74wv378h5qnl/sgminerx11.rar

I tried to compile the original bin you reversed engineered, but couldn't get it still to compile the kernel.

Have you used this source code from lasybear?

Can you be a bit more specific?

[Amph]

i can't run it

it stopped workiing

[Remember remember the 5th of November]

Hmm, yeah getting a crash myself. Will have to inspect the source code to see what is wrong. Since the binary was compiled from the lasybear source code, he should also review the code to find where or why it crashes.

[Elun]

Can't run. Windows 7 x64
Two videocards in system: 5770(disabled for mining) and R9 280X(for mining, device 0)
My bat:
sgminer.exe -d 0 --no-submit-stale -k x11mod ...Pools... --thread-concurrency 8192,5000 --vectors 1,1 --worksize 256,128 --lookup-gap 2,1 --intensity 15,8
Kernel compiled.
Waiting work from pools
gets pools diff and shuts down
R9 280X clocks: 1100/1500
Sorry for my bad english.
