- We are always dependent on libusb handling events so use the blocking
libusb_handle_events in the polling thread and use a bool to know if we should
continue polling.
- Use fractional hashrate return values in bitfury_scanhash to minimise the
number of times we return 0 based on hashrate so far to further damp out
displayed hashrate.
- Check for presence of driver name in DRIVER_COUNT_FOUND to prevent strcmp on a
null pointer when a driver is not built in.
- CMR allow sending flash and clock commands
- Kill off threads that have failed using hash_sole_work instead of just
disabling them.
- Make the bf1 getinfo size a macro
- Failing to add_cgpu in bitfury should be a terminal failure.
- Check return values when attempting to open a BF1 device and set the msg size
as a macro.
- Display errors on failed usb read and write and consider sequential IO errors
a permanent failure.
- Use libusb's own error name function instead of hand coding the error names.
- Limit ms_tdiff to 1 hour as a sanity check.
- Enable the usb buffer in avalon driver.
- Check for async transfer variants of error messages.
- Remove unused variables.
- Try switching pools if for some reason we end up with only idle pools and have
ended up current_pool set to an idle one.
- Check a pool is stable for >5 mins before switching back to it.
- Minimise the time between dropping the read devlock and grabbing the write
devlock to avoid tons of logging spam in the interim.
- Check for libusb transfer stall error to be consistent with async IO errors
returned for a halt condition.
- Check for continuous IO errors on USB and consider the device inactive if more
than retry max.
- Make the devlock a cglock in usbutils and only grab the write lock for
fundamental changes allowing us to send and receive transfers concurrently
without lock contention.
- Prevent overflows in us_tdiff and ms_tdiff.
- Change second initialise message on bitfury verbose mode.
- Submitting an ntime offset nonce needs to be done on a copy of the work
instead of the original so abstract out shared components as much as possible,
minimising strdups in copy_work and make submit_work_async work take copied
work, cleaning up code in the process.
- Provide a way for drivers to submit work that it has internally rolled the
ntime value by returning the amount it has ntime rolled to be added.
- Typo in configure.ac
- Remove unmaintained broken ztex driver.
- Icarus - use a data structure for I/O rather than magic numbers
- delete old tracked ccan/opt/*.o files
- klondike correct cvtKlnToC() temperature calculation
- klondike - correct 1st reply debug based on define
- klondike - debug dump structured replies
- klondike - avoid division by zero if maxcount is unexpectedly zero
- klondike store and report errorcount and noise
- klondike - fix chipstats api stats buffer overrun with 16 chips
- klondike add new nonecount only once
- klondike - report mh/s based on nonces found + put old estimate into API stats
- klondike use a memcpy
- klondike fix bracket tabs indenting
- api.c missing Klondike from ASIC list
- Klondike update code to current git
- Add 2nd CMR to 01-cgminer.rules
- Add Klondike to 01-cgminer.rules
- Klondike to main directory
- Klondike consistent code spacing
- Klondike update driver code to current git
- update firmware for 16 chips, add dist files
- beta final 0.3.0 release
- updated firmware, IOC method
- prevent nonces when not state W
- added driver config option support
- fixes for 300 MHz, fix K1 parts list
- update driver, docs
- update firmware & utils
- updated cgminer driver for 3.3.1
- update firmware and driver, create new cgminer fork
- update klondike driver
- add cgminer driver file as-is
- Add API output displaying USB cancellations.
- Store statistics on how often we have to cancel async bulk transfers and add a
debug message whenever we do.
- Treat any unexpected timeouts waiting for async transfers as though there may
be a usb halt condition and attempt to clear the halt before cancelling the
tranfer.
- Remove zero packet flag on usb as it's unsupported outside linux and
unnecessary.
- Fake the libusb transfer timed out message if we force cancel it with our own
async functions.
- Use asynchronous transfers for all bulk transfers, allowing us to use our own
timers and cancelling transfers that take too long.
- Add libusb error warning message when significant error occurs.
- Icarus CMR2 detect FPGA setup
- Disable bitfury device thread on it disappearing.
Version 3.5.0 - 29th September 2013 Version 3.5.0 - 29th September 2013
- Add magic init sequence required on BF1 devices to get them mining on windows. - Add magic init sequence required on BF1 devices to get them mining on windows.
