Version 2.8.4 - October 18, 2012
- Time for dynamic is in microseconds, not ms.
- x86_64 builds of mingw32 are not supported directly and should just configure
as generic mingw32 builds since they're NOT 64 bit.
- Cope with both ATI stream and AMD APP SDK roots being set when building.
- Use 3 significant digits when suffix string is used and values are >1000.
- MMQ new initialisation (that works) and clocking control
- Get rid of unused warning for !scrypt.
- Use select on stratum send to make sure the socket is writeable.
- Cope with dval being zero in suffix_string and display a single decimal place
when significant digits is not specified but the value is greater than 1000.
- Pad out the suffix string function with zeroes on the right.
- Failure to calloc in bin2hex is a fatal failure always so just check for that
failure within the function and abort, simplifying the rest of the code.
- Provide locking around the change of the stratum curl structures to avoid
possible races.
- Bump opencl kernel version numbers.
- Remove atomic ops from opencl kernels given rarity of more than once nonce on
the same wavefront and the potential increased ramspeed requirements to use the
atomics.
- Clear the pool idle flag in stratum when it comes back to life.
- Display correct share hash and share difficulty with scrypt mining.
- Use explicit host to BE functions in scrypt code instead of hard coding
byteswap everywhere.
- Show work target diff for scrypt mining.
- Ease the checking on allocation of padbuffer8 in the hope it works partially
anyway on an apparently failed call.
- Watch for buffer overflows on receiving data into the socket buffer.
- Round target difficulties down to be in keeping with the rounding of detected
share difficulties.
- Dramatically simplify the dynamic intensity calculation by oversampling many
runs through the opencl kernel till we're likely well within the timer
resolution on windows.
- String alignment to 4 byte boundaries and optimisations for bin<->hex
conversions.
- In opencl_free_work, make sure to still flush results in dynamic mode.
- Align static arrays to 4 byte boundaries to appease ARM builds for stratum.
Version 2.8.3 - October 12, 2012
- Left align values that are suffix_string generated.
