ckolivas edd9b816 2012-08-22T10:07:20 Do not add time to dynamic opencl calculations over a getwork.
Kano b3e9858c 2012-08-20T16:07:20 API new command 'coin' with mining information
Kano 9210abdf 2012-08-19T15:09:45 API V1.17 show Work Utility and Diff1 Shares
Con Kolivas 26ab7346 2012-08-18T15:27:53 Implement a new pool strategy, BALANCE, which monitors work performed per pool as a rolling average every 10 minutes to try and distribute work evenly over all the pools. Do this by monitoring diff1 solutions to allow different difficulty target pools to be treated equally, along with solo mining. Update the documentation to describe this strategy and more accurately describe the load-balance one.
Con Kolivas d8c76bbd 2012-08-18T11:26:11 Getwork fail was not being detected. Remove a vast amount of unused variables and functions used in the old queue request mechanism and redefine the getfail testing.
Con Kolivas c3e32274 2012-08-16T10:41:01 Cull all the early queue requests since we request every time work is popped now.
Con Kolivas 5fadfdb2 2012-08-16T09:19:45 Overlap queued decrementing with staged incrementing.
Con Kolivas 611f1cec 2012-08-15T22:48:08 Roll work whenever we can on getwork.
Con Kolivas fd0be1bb 2012-08-15T22:28:09 Queue requests for getwork regardless and test whether we should send for a getwork from the getwork thread itself.
Con Kolivas 2480cf23 2012-08-15T10:54:38 Don't try to get bitforce temperature if we're polling for a result to minimise the chance of interleaved responses.
Con Kolivas 8745ba1e 2012-08-15T09:38:45 Windows' timer resolution is limited to 15ms accuracy. This was breaking dynamic intensity since it tries to measure below this. Since we are repeatedly sampling similar timeframes, we can average the gpu_us result over 5 different values to get very fine precision.
Kano 95dff736 2012-08-14T12:54:27 API allow display/change failover-only setting
Con Kolivas 8aa61f66 2012-08-11T16:47:49 Make sure we have work from the current pool somewhere in the queue in case the queue is full of requests from a pool that has just died.
Con Kolivas 8085ae68 2012-08-11T14:04:55 Further simplify the queue request mechanism.
Con Kolivas 3576abf8 2012-08-05T15:43:27 Make pool_disabled the first in the enums == 0, fixing the pool enabled count which compares if value is not enabled before enabling it.
Con Kolivas fc44b6d7 2012-08-05T15:32:44 Use different variables for command line specified lookup gap and thread concurrency to differentiate user defined versus auto chosen values.
Con Kolivas bf9c3247 2012-08-05T13:40:46 The queueing mechanism has become a complex state machine that is no longer predictable. Rewrite it from scratch watching only current queues in flight and staged work available on a pool by pool basis.
Con Kolivas b70ec3cb 2012-08-02T17:17:53 Merge pull request #283 from kanoi/icarus ICA support 57600 baud rate, up to 8 FPGA and partial working FPGA boards
Con Kolivas 7fa794a4 2012-08-03T09:26:43 It is not critical getting the temperature response in bitforce so don't mandatorily wait on the mutex lock.
Kano e067be42 2012-08-01T22:50:30 ICA support 57600 baud rate, up to 8 FPGA and partial working FPGA boards
Con Kolivas c91148f1 2012-07-30T09:02:23 Remove the low hash count determinant of hardware being sick. A low hash rate can be for poor network connectivity or scrypt mining, neither of which are due to sick hardware.
Con Kolivas 500ed85b 2012-07-29T03:46:49 Merge pull request #271 from luke-jr/cg_logfixes Logging bugfixes
Con Kolivas e87ff7c1 2012-07-29T13:15:39 Keep a counter of enabled pools and use that instead of iterating over the pool list. Use that value to ensure we don't set the last remaining active pool to the rejecting state.
Con Kolivas 9a6c082a 2012-07-24T20:27:37 Make the thread concurrency and lookup gap options hidden on the command line and autotune parameters with a newly parsed --shaders option.
Luke Dashjr da4ff2bd 2012-07-23T20:22:01 Bugfix: Use a mutex to control non-curses output Without this, there is no guarantee writes won't overlap (and it happens quite a bit on Windows with the bitforce driver)
Luke Dashjr d98e561a 2012-07-23T20:15:45 Simplify code to a single vprintf path for curses-less printing
Luke Dashjr 80593c47 2012-07-23T19:56:03 Move opt_quiet check to my_log_curses, so it works for curses-less builds

Con Kolivas 6ac14f42 2012-07-16T13:14:21 Don't enqueuewrite buffer at all for pad8 and pass work details around for scrypt in dev_blk.
Con Kolivas 0f43eb5e 2012-07-13T20:35:44 Don't test nonce with sha and various fixes for scrypt.
Con Kolivas b085c338 2012-07-13T20:28:36 Make scrypt buffers and midstate compatible with cgminer.
Con Kolivas dd740caa 2012-07-13T19:02:43 Provide initial support for the scrypt kernel to compile with and mine scrypt with the --scrypt option.
Con Kolivas 5a65415b 2012-07-13T14:47:02 Enable completely compiling scrypt out.
Con Kolivas 176cdf8b 2012-07-13T14:44:52 Begin import of scrypt opencl kernel from reaper.

Paul Sheppard d4d5b28e 2012-07-11T14:46:09 Abbrv. correction
Luke Dashjr c57c308d 2012-07-11T20:29:06 Bugfix: Don't declare devices SICK if they're just busy initializing This mainly applies to ModMiner since it takes 4-5 minutes to upload the bitstream
Paul Sheppard 5f0a22d2 2012-07-11T08:32:41 Remove superfluous ave_wait
Paul Sheppard 2c54522d 2012-07-11T08:11:53 Add average wait time to api stats
Paul Sheppard 01a69ee4 2012-07-11T08:07:39 Revert "Merge branch 'ave_time' of https://github.com/pshep/cgminer.git" This reverts commit 242e52cdf902aabd124e600a65b7d7140b11fef0, reversing changes made to 4dc1bf2319daf5d8eae3a486e2bbbaa3ed00c88b.
ckolivas 5c7e0308 2012-07-11T22:59:58 Modify te scanhash API to use an int64_t and return -1 on error, allowing zero to be a valid return value.
Paul Sheppard 3cc0aa76 2012-07-10T15:34:01 Add average return time to api stats
Paul Sheppard 953ecd9e 2012-07-08T23:25:02 Change timeouts to time-vals for accuracy.
Con Kolivas 2ce7f28b 2012-07-08T04:24:55 Merge pull request #254 from luke-jr/work_restart2 Turn work_restart array into a bool in thr_info
Con Kolivas fd55fab9 2012-07-06T16:54:00 Make bitforce nonce range support a command line option --bfl-range since enabling it decrease hashrate by 1%.
Luke Dashjr d4af2d05 2012-07-06T02:39:32 Turn work_restart array into a bool in thr_info
Con Kolivas 3271be14 2012-07-06T15:01:39 Provide a ms based sleep function that uses nanosleep to avoid the inaccuracy of usleep on SMP systems.
Con Kolivas 75eca078 2012-07-05T09:15:21 Restart_wait is only called with a ms value so incorporate that into the function.
Con Kolivas e5aba760 2012-07-05T00:40:01 Fix off-by-one error in nonce increment in bfl.
Con Kolivas 6314a12b 2012-07-04T23:53:55 Initially enable support for nonce range support on bfl, splitting nonces up into 3/4 size and only disable it if it fails on work submit.
Con Kolivas 96fba30b 2012-07-04T17:31:02 Attempt to detect nonce range support in BFL by sending work requring its support.

ckolivas fd7b21ed 2012-07-02T10:54:20 Use a pthread conditional that is broadcast whenever work restarts are required. Create a generic wait function waiting a specified time on that conditional that returns if the condition is met or a specified time passed to it has elapsed. Use this to do smarter polling in bitforce to abort work, queue more work, and check for results to minimise time spent working needlessly.

ckolivas c5a21fab 2012-06-23T23:43:22 Extend nrolltime to support the expiry= parameter. Do this by turning the rolltime bool into an integer set to the expiry time. If the pool supports rolltime but not expiry= then set the expiry time to the standard scantime.

Change total sleep time to 4300ms after performance testing/measurement (now good to 916MH/s). Changed timeout to 15s - Throttle time is 15s. Added support for 'Busy' when submitting work. Improved logging text to include device identifier. Added a thread_enable api function, called when a thread is re-enabled. ... and removed useless re-init inside scanhash. Use modminer introduced mutex.
