Con Kolivas 6197ff20 2011-08-24T20:13:05 Remove silly debugging output.
Con Kolivas 9ab15a82 2011-08-24T17:34:19 Merge branch 'hash'
Con Kolivas 93f4163a 2011-08-24T17:32:36 Create a hash list of all the blocks created and search them to detect when a new block has definitely appeared, using that information to detect stale work and discard it.
Con Kolivas b81077f3 2011-08-24T12:50:44 Since we roll work all the time now, we end up staging a lot of work without queueing, so don't queue if we've already got staged work.
Con Kolivas bf3033e0 2011-08-24T08:23:22 Make restarting of GPUs optional for systems that hang on any attempt to restart them. Fix DEAD status by comparing it to last live time rather than last attempted restart time since that happens every minute.
Con Kolivas 666fcc3f 2011-08-24T08:06:15 Move staged threads to hashes so we can sort them by time.
Con Kolivas bca84c3b 2011-08-24T08:23:22 Make restarting of GPUs optional for systems that hang on any attempt to restart them. Fix DEAD status by comparing it to last live time rather than last attempted restart time since that happens every minute.

Con Kolivas 5acdbec4 2011-08-23T12:04:26 Make the fail-pause progressively longer each time it fails until the network recovers.
Con Kolivas b4d6b11b 2011-08-23T11:57:08 Only display the lagging message if we've requested the work earlier.
Con Kolivas ced4a9ac 2011-08-23T11:40:48 Clean up the pool switching to not be dependent on whether the work can roll or not by setting a lagging flag and then the idle flag.
Con Kolivas 088ee2fa 2011-08-23T10:47:47 Only use one thread to determine if a GPU is sick or well, and make sure to reset the sick restart attempt time.
Con Kolivas 02e126f4 2011-08-23T10:28:30 The worksize was unintentionally changed back to 4k by mistake, this caused a slowdown.

Con Kolivas dfec430c 2011-08-22T08:04:30 Make the tcp setsockopts unique to linux in the hope it allows freebsd et. al to compile.
Con Kolivas 7c6dfacc 2011-08-21T08:55:31 Display which longpoll failed and don't free the ram for lp_url since it belongs to the pool hdr path.
Con Kolivas 6f741597 2011-08-20T23:36:18 Use any longpoll available, and don't disable it if switching to a server that doesn't have it.
Con Kolivas b358bdc0 2011-08-20T23:11:12 Never automatically disable any pools but just specify them as idle if they're unresponsive at startup.
Con Kolivas 324d849b 2011-08-20T23:03:49 Attempt to restart a GPU once every minute while it's sick. Don't kill off the reinit thread if it fails to init a GPU but returns safely. Only declare a GPU dead if there's been no sign of activity from the reinit thread for 10 mins.
Con Kolivas 1b228ee3 2011-08-20T22:39:20 Re-enable devices immediately after ther old threads would have been killed off in case the first attempt to restart them fails but we still want them emabled.
Con Kolivas 75018d0d 2011-08-20T22:22:11 Release cl resources should the gpu mining thread abort.
Con Kolivas f062765c 2011-08-20T10:08:59 Explicitly link in ws2_32 on the windows build and update README file on how to compile successfully on windows.
Con Kolivas bd79a61c 2011-08-19T17:20:49 Move poclbm to new branch optimisation as well.
Con Kolivas aaa2e19e 2011-08-19T11:55:00 Add one more instruction to avoid one branch point in the common path in the cl return code. Although this adds more ALUs overall and more branch points, the common path code has the same number of ALUs and one less jmp, jmps being more expensive.
Con Kolivas a754cc3f 2011-08-18T23:07:30 Suppress correct log output when display per-device status.
Con Kolivas 4beade37 2011-08-18T22:42:37 Retain the program immediately after it's created from source.
Con Kolivas 082e20df 2011-08-18T22:34:03 Explicitly tell the compiler to retain the program to minimise the chance of the zero sized binary errors.
Con Kolivas 6f769e0f 2011-08-18T22:17:55 Add the ability to enable/disable per-device stats on the fly and match logging on/off.
Con Kolivas e414490b 2011-08-18T22:07:06 Don't display rolling status if per device stats is enabled.
Con Kolivas 2798b8c5 2011-08-18T21:35:37 Merge branch 'master' of github.com:ckolivas/cgminer
Con Kolivas d89a6c57 2011-08-18T21:35:05 Since we check roll time per work item now, it need only be debug log level.
Con Kolivas 64e7cdd6 2011-08-18T21:32:45 The new phatk kernel needs a different nonce passed according to how many vectors are in use. This fixes breakage that otherwise occurs when 1 or 4 vectors are chosen.

Con Kolivas 1e77f044 2011-08-17T12:43:39 Clean up the longpoll management to ensure the right paths go to the right pool and display whether we're connected to LP or not in the status line.
Con Kolivas 58eb4d58 2011-08-16T17:13:10 Add bench_block to makefile.
Con Kolivas 4daca363 2011-08-16T16:57:48 Recommend O2 instead of O3 since it can make windows binaries fail.
Con Kolivas 05dadc90 2011-08-16T15:47:44 Add pkg-config to listed dependencies.

Con Kolivas 8e38a149 2011-08-16T10:37:34 Simplify output code and remove HW errors from CPU stats.
Con Kolivas 426f72de 2011-08-16T10:27:19 As we have keepalives now, blaming network flakiness on timeouts appears to have been wrong. Set a timeout for longpoll to 1 hour, and most other network connectivity to 1 minute.

Znort 987 eed634a3 2011-08-16T00:04:50 Merge branch 'ckolivas-master' into merge-ckolivas-master
Con Kolivas 4e48561a 2011-08-15T22:21:17 Rework the last-initialised time displayed.
Con Kolivas cfe8534c 2011-08-15T22:07:28 Partial restart of threads has proven to be unsuccessful so reinstate device re-initialisation to restart GPUs. Do this by having a reinit thread that is told via a queue which device to restart. If this thread fails to return from opencl code, it should not interrupt the workings of other devices.
Con Kolivas 42d49ffd 2011-08-15T20:28:25 Revert "Restart threads by abstracting out the clcontext initialisation and using that instead of probing all cards." This reverts commit 8f186e61e250e71bd606cabb52795eaa0c9ad423.
Con Kolivas cf543507 2011-08-15T20:27:02 Revert "Preinitialise the devices only once on startup." This reverts commit 071a0ad2f156ab492ebea6c5a60a1e49a62466de.
Con Kolivas b1289a01 2011-08-15T20:26:46 Revert "Move the non cl_ variables into the cgpu info struct to allow creating a new cl state on reinit, preserving known GPU variables." This reverts commit 28880d0dc7c601ee4479921502b66e913e38e36d.
Con Kolivas 7c50bb02 2011-08-15T20:26:27 Revert "Display last initialised time in gpu management info." This reverts commit 177e07aed32e6b38f615f52d3243620625ff93e0.
Con Kolivas cac54f30 2011-08-15T20:25:18 Revert "When pinging a sick cpu, flush finish and then ping it in a separate thread in the hope it recovers, but without blocking code elsewhere." This reverts commit a466942fd880d157cc0b5968805b2159f556fc20.

Znort 987 75639da1 2011-08-15T12:03:46 Add WIN32 safe CPU benchmark method Method for WIN32 - Add a hidden '--bench-algo' option to cgminer that only benchmarks the specified algorithm. - Create a chunk of shared mem - Launch a new instance of cgminer with --bench-algo, and act as a debugger for it to silently catch crashes. - Once it completes, either successfully or because of a crash, read benchmarked value from shared mem
Znort 987 84b0467c 2011-08-15T11:49:06 Fix broken assert in algo bencher

Znort 987 29f0f9bc 2011-08-15T11:55:12 Properly detect number of cores on WIN32
Znort 987 7158f9f9 2011-08-12T13:38:18 Add automated benchmark of the CPU hashers The --algo switch now accepts the "auto" argument. When "auto" is passed to --algo, cgminer starts by benchmarking all the CPU algorithms it nows about and picks the fastest. This is useful for benchmarking, but also for folks who run cgminer on a large number of heterogeneous computers because it saves them from having to configure each instance optimally. Caveat emptor: depending on the platform, some algorithms will fail with "illegal instruction" (e.g. via padlock code on non via platforms, or SSE4 code on non SSE4 platforms). To protect against this, cgminer runs the benchmarks in a child process. The crash, if any occurs in the child, and the parent marks this algo as "fails" and continues benchmarking the next algorithm. Unfortunately, this safeguard is only implemented for Linux because I have no clue how to do this on win32 (nor access to a win32 box).

Con Kolivas 1cca876b 2011-08-14T14:19:53 Update NEWS.
Con Kolivas 50504ef9 2011-08-14T13:57:58 If a work item has had any mining done on it, don't consider it discarded work.
Con Kolivas 656067a4 2011-08-14T12:30:50 Stale work test should respect age of rolled work as well.
Con Kolivas 23240805 2011-08-14T11:35:53 Stick to rolling only work from the current pool unless we're in load balance mode or lagging to avoid aggressive rolling imitating load balancing.
