Version 3.5.0 - 29th September 2013
|
||||
|
||||
- Add magic init sequence required on BF1 devices to get them mining on windows.
|
||||
- usbinfo.devlock is only ever write locked so convert it to a mutex
|
||||
- Icarus remove unneeded opt_debug tests due to applog being a macro
|
||||
- Icarus - CMR shouldn't wait the full timeout due to handle sharing
|
||||
- We should only yield once in cg_wunlock
|
||||
- Provide a function to downgrade a cglock from a write lock to an intermediate
|
||||
variant.
|
||||
- Deuglify use of _PARSE_COMMANDS macro expansions.
|
||||
- Deuglify use of usb parse commands macro in usbutils.
|
||||
- Use the driver add commands macros in api.c to avoid individually listing
|
||||
them.
|
||||
- Separate out asic fpga and opencl drivers in the driver parse commands macro
|
||||
for use individually as needed.
|
||||
- Use macro expansion in usb_find_devices to avoid explicitly listing them all.
|
||||
- Use macro expansion to iterate over all the drivers without explicitly writing
|
||||
them out in usbutils.c
|
||||
- Iterate over the bitfury offsets in order of decreasing likelihood.
|
||||
- Reattach the kernel driver on linux on usb_uninit.
|
||||
- Attach the kernel driver on failure to usb init on linux.
|
||||
- libusb kernel driver operations are only available on linux.
|
||||
- There is no need to get the external prototypes for drivers in cgminer.c any
|
||||
more.
|
||||
- Remove unnecessary gpu_threads initialisation.
|
||||
- Put avalon last in the sequence of adding drivers to prevent it trying to
|
||||
claim similar chip devices on startup.
|
||||
- Use macro expansion to iterate over all device drivers without needing to
|
||||
explicitly code in support in all places. Pass a hotplug bool to the detect()
|
||||
function to prevent opencl trying to hogplug GPUs.
|
||||
- Forward declare all device drivers in miner.h avoiding the need to export them
|
||||
everywhere else.
|
||||
- Add a noop function for driver detect when it's missing.
|
||||
- Reuse the DRIVER_ macros to avoid having yet another definition for DRV_
|
||||
- Use macro expansion to generate extern device_drv prototypes.
|
||||
- Create a macro list of drivers to enable easier addition of further drivers.
|
||||
- There is no point setting the BF1 preferred packet size to the maximum since
|
||||
it will do so automatically.
|
||||
- icarus ensure all cmr interfaces are initialised properly
|
||||
- usbutils - fix USBDEBUG warnings
|
||||
- Remove unnecessary steps in communicating with BF1 and just use USB interface
|
||||
1.
|
||||
- usbutils - usb_bulk_transfer fix the buf/data fix
|
||||
- usb_bulk_transfer - use the allocated buffer
|
||||
- Set preferred packet sizes per interface on BF1.
|
||||
- usbutils allow PrefPacketSize per endpoint
|
||||
- Remove magic control sequences on open/close on BF1 and just flush the read
|
||||
buffers.
|
||||
- Check return codes in getinfo and reset and fail as needed in BF1.
|
||||
- Check return code for bitfury_open and release resources properly on failed
|
||||
initialisation.
|
||||
- Abstract out flushing of interrupt reads in BF1 devices.
|
||||
- Perform interrupt read after close message on BF1 as per serial close.
|
||||
- Perform interrupt read flush as per serial open on BF1 devices.
|
||||
- Add information for 2nd USB interface on BF1 devices and choose interface 1
|
||||
for bulk transfers.
|
||||
- usbutils - bulk transfer copy test fix
|
||||
- usbutils - add USBDEBUG for usb_bulk_transfer
|
||||
- Add more read_ii variants to usbutils.
|
||||
- Name remainder of BFU usb commands used.
|
||||
- Use submit_tested_work in bitfury driver to avoid unnecessarily re-testing the
|
||||
work for validity.
|
||||
- Abstract out work submission once it's been tested, to be used by drivers that
|
||||
do their own internal validity testing.
|
||||
- Store the hash2 array in struct work for further reuse.
|
||||
- usbutils - which_intinfo not requried
|
||||
- Use the test_nonce function within submit_nonce and store the uint32
|
||||
corresponding to hash2 37 for further use.
|
||||
- usbutils - interfaces must all be on one handle - ep implies the interface
|
||||
- avalon stats use exact type
|
||||
- Only set share diff if we've confirmed it's a share first.
|
||||
- Update ASIC-README for bitfury devices.
|
||||
- Use an array of offsets when checking nonces in bitfury_checkresults
|
||||
- Limit the duration we wait for reads in BF1 based on time already elapsed to
|
||||
account for other delays such as work restart messages or out of work.
|
||||
- Minimise size of serial string we copy in BF1 stats to avoid overflow.
|
||||
- Implement basic API stats for BF1 and increase array of results to check for
|
||||
the rare straggling result.
|
||||
- Space debug output for bf1 to separate from numerals.
|
||||
- Abstract out the bitfury open close and reset functions and use them on
|
||||
reinit.
|
||||
- Rename BF1 devices BF1
|
||||
- Check for work restart, breaking out early after usb reads in BF1.
|
||||
- Do not lose the first sets of results from BF1.
|
||||
- There is no point checking for results from the next round of work on BF1.
|
||||
- Last result returned by BF1 is an end of results marker so ignore it.
|
||||
- restart_wait should return 0 if thr_restart is true.
|
||||
- Remove unused code by bitfury driver since current driver uses serialised
|
||||
scanhash.
|
||||
- Meter out return of estimated hashes in BF1 to smooth out visible hashrate.
|
||||
- Optimise inner scanhash loop for bf1.
|
||||
- Add yet another backup work for triple buffering of work in bf1 to account for
|
||||
extra late results returned and don't check nonce offsets which appear to never
|
||||
return.
|
||||
- Name the work request and result usb commands for BF1
|
||||
- Define a mandatory upper limit to waiting for reset and data on BF1 based on
|
||||
full nonce duration.
|
||||
- Decrease usb buffering to verbose logging.
|
||||
- Add in first draft for a serialised work model sending/receiving data for BF1
|
||||
devices.
|
||||
- Add complete close sequence to bf1 as it happens on serial.
|
||||
- Provide a bitfury identify function for bf1.
|
||||
- Reliably extract BF1 information at startup and reset the device.
|
||||
- Add commands for getting BF1 bitfury info
|
||||
- Add magic BF1 bitfury open and close control sequences.
|
||||
- Add BF1 detection code to bitfury driver.
|
||||
- Create basic placeholders for bitfury driver code.
|
||||
- Add bf1 device information to usbutils to enable device detection.
|
||||
- Add basic defines for building for bitfury devices.
|
||||
- Add redfury device to udev rules.
|
||||
- avalon: display the FPGA controller version on API
|
||||
- pool_active uninitialised_var rolltime
|
||||
- Use macro expansion to only need to define usb enums and commands in one
|
||||
place.
|
||||
- usbutils saving incorrect overflow buffer
|
||||
- ignore libusb.la and *.lo on linux
|
||||
- icarus support CMR with no extensions
|
||||
- usbtils - interfaces dont work yet in libusb windows so disable for that only
|
||||
- Provide a --disable-libcurl config option to build support for stratum mining
|
||||
only.
|
||||
- Fix the api-example.c compile under Linux
|
||||
- usbutils - only release the device once - for the first intinfo
|
||||
- usbutils set_interface is no longer valid
|
||||
- ubsutils interfaces much each have their own handle
|
||||
- usbutils kernel_detach should use the interface number
|
||||
- usbutils - allow the driver to change which_intinfo
|
||||
- Reset quotas on load balance for all pools at the same time to avoid running
|
||||
out during selection and unintentionally dropping to fallback.
|
||||
- Break out of select pool from a common point for appropriate debug messages
|
||||
and to avoid further tests.
|
||||
- usbutils correct/reverse CMR product numbers
|
||||
- usbutils specifically track handles and interfaces
|
||||
- change drivers to use usb_interface() - required for multi interface change
|
||||
- usbutils - allow a device to use multiple interfaces (and better var names)
|
||||
- Cast -1 to (char) to cope with different default char types on ARM.
|
||||

||||
Version 3.4.3 - 13th September 2013

|
||||
