CKPOOL - Open source pool/proxy/passthrough/redirector/library in c for Linux

[chiguireitor]

Was going to ask questions about constant disconnection of the clients on the proxy, but it seems it was just uplink unstability.

On another note, is there any documentation on ckpmsg? I would love to see what nifty things i can do with it/add to it...

Btw, loving your perpetual while conditions some Douglas Adams loving there.

Heh 42 indeed. There's no real documentation for anything ckpmsg has over and above what's in the main readme. If you can read the code you can issue direct commands to each of the main process loops provided you know the syntax but generally it's only expected people will use ckpmsg to speak to the main ckpool process which will forward on the relevant message. The other processes aren't obliged to provide a response whereas the main pool process always does as a rule.

Ok, will keep searching if there's some functionality already implemented for what i want to do. If i happen to add something useful, you wouldn't mind a PR?

I always welcome outside code, but I'm very fussy...

Sure thing, i will use ckproxy for a product i'm developing, and as per the GPL i must release the source, so i'll be sure to let you know when/if i do changes.

quick question: do i need to wire the notifier to a bitcoind node to pick up block solve messages from upstream in proxy mode?   trying to read through the stratum protocol docs to understand it a bit more, but thought i'd just ask.

From ckpool's readme:

Code:

notifier - An application designed to be run with bitcoind's -blocknotify to notify ckpool of block changes.

So you must set your blocknotify option on either bitcoind's command line or bitcoin.conf's

trying it out was my next step.   initially sounded like it applied only in solo mining mode, was unsure if proxy mode get broadcasts from upstream pools.

There's a stratum message that just does that, but i doubt ckproxy has a way to handle it from the command line, you could watch the log for the block hash change messages though.

Bitcoind is not used at all in proxy modes except for node mode.

why do i have so many reconnects? i belive my connection is not a problem here

Why blame the code? Your "pools" are disconnecting you, probably because you're idle. They look like they have 5 minute idle timeouts.

true, no miners connected through proxy, but look at a second log it is constant reconnects, no 5 min delays there, it reconnects every 5 seconds

I can't speak for what your upstream pools do with your chosen credentials. Try logging in debug mode and you might get more info.

All I see is lots of disconnects from the upstream pool. Are you using the latest git code? The code is a continual work in progress and it's easy to find a spot where things are broken if you're not careful. Current git is stable though.

yes, latest git version.
i point proxy to sha256.eu.nicehash.com and there is no such disconnects.
but my miners are pointed to eu-01.miningrigrentals.com directly and they are doing fine.

btw is it possible to switch pools in the proxy list on the fly while miners are connected and working?

Not at the moment, no. I suspect it's just some incompatibility with MRR but I can't guess what it might be sorry. Earlier on I had tested with MRR and saw they *always* disconnect idle miners, and additionally they use redirects with reconnects for changes in where the rentals are pointed.
