This is a multi-threaded CPU miner for Litecoin and Bitcoin, |
Run with you gostcoin wallet app |
||||||
and now xcoin, forked from poolers cpuminer which is a |
./minerd -a gostd -t <number of cores> -o http://127.0.0.1:9376 -u <your RPC user> -p <you RPC password> |
||||||
fork of Jeff Garzik's reference cpuminer. |

|
||||||
Different than the Sha256 and Scrypt implementation, the QRK hashing is |
|
||||||
pure plain C code. So for performance gains, it may be good to tune |
|
||||||
compilation with e.g. -march for specific CPU types |

Basic *nix build instructions: |
|
||||||
./autogen.sh # only needed if building from git repo |
|
||||||
./nomacro.pl # only needed if building on Mac OS X or with Clang |
|
||||||
./configure CFLAGS="-O3" |
|
||||||
make |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Notes for AIX users: |
|
||||||
* To build a 64-bit binary, export OBJECT_MODE=64 |
|
||||||
* GNU-style long options are not supported, but are accessible |
|
||||||
via configuration file |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Basic Windows build instructions, using MinGW: |
|
||||||
Install MinGW and the MSYS Developer Tool Kit (http://www.mingw.org/) |
|
||||||
* Make sure you have mstcpip.h in MinGW\include |
|
||||||
If using MinGW-w64, install pthreads-w64 |
|
||||||
Install libcurl devel (http://curl.haxx.se/download.html) |
|
||||||
* Make sure you have libcurl.m4 in MinGW\share\aclocal |
|
||||||
* Make sure you have curl-config in MinGW\bin |
|
||||||
In the MSYS shell, run: |
|
||||||
./autogen.sh # only needed if building from git repo |
|
||||||
LIBCURL="-lcurldll" ./configure CFLAGS="-O3" |
|
||||||
make |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Architecture-specific notes: |
|
||||||
ARM: No runtime CPU detection. The miner can take advantage |
|
||||||
of some instructions specific to ARMv5E and later processors, |
|
||||||
but the decision whether to use them is made at compile time, |
|
||||||
based on compiler-defined macros. |
|
||||||
To use NEON instructions, add "-mfpu=neon" to CFLAGS. |
|
||||||
x86: The miner checks for SSE2 instructions support at runtime, |
|
||||||
and uses them if they are available. |
|
||||||
x86-64: The miner can take advantage of AVX, AVX2 and XOP instructions, |
|
||||||
but only if both the CPU and the operating system support them. |
|
||||||
* Linux supports AVX starting from kernel version 2.6.30. |
|
||||||
* FreeBSD supports AVX starting with 9.1-RELEASE. |
|
||||||
* Mac OS X added AVX support in the 10.6.8 update. |
|
||||||
* Windows supports AVX starting from Windows 7 SP1 and |
|
||||||
Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. |
|
||||||
The configure script outputs a warning if the assembler |
|
||||||
doesn't support some instruction sets. In that case, the miner |
|
||||||
can still be built, but unavailable optimizations are left off. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Usage instructions: Run "minerd --help" to see options. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Connecting through a proxy: Use the --proxy option. |
|
||||||
To use a SOCKS proxy, add a socks4:// or socks5:// prefix to the proxy host. |
|
||||||
Protocols socks4a and socks5h, allowing remote name resolving, are also |
|
||||||
available since libcurl 7.18.0. |
|
||||||
If no protocol is specified, the proxy is assumed to be a HTTP proxy. |
|
||||||
When the --proxy option is not used, the program honors the http_proxy |
|
||||||
and all_proxy environment variables. |
|
||||||

||||||
Also many issues and FAQs are covered in the forum thread |

||||||
