2011-12-29 | Added Cell/BE optimizations | Siarhei Siamashka | |
Linux on PS3 gets a huge boost in litecoin mining performance. Cell/BE support should be detected and enabled automatically by autotools. The miner threads are first allocated to the available SPU cores (typically 6). The remaining threads are allocated on PPU. There will be 8 threads total on PS3: 6 SPU threads and 2 PPU threads. Each SPU core provides ~5.4 khash/s if compiled with spu-elf-gcc 4.6 The performance may vary for different gcc versions, older ones are typically slower. | |||
2011-12-29 | Use gcc vector extensions for SIMD scrypt key derivation function | Siarhei Siamashka | |
The code can be compiled for different architectures from the same source starting with gcc 4.7. But SSE2/Altivec/SPU targets have compatibility wrappers, which also allow the use of older versions of gcc. Two hashes are processed at the same time, so twice bigger scratch buffer is needed (~256K vs. ~128K). Speedup on Cell PPU (32-bit), single thread, 3.2GHz: ~0.58 khash/s -> ~1.79 khash/sec | |||
2011-12-29 | SHA256 code moved to a separate header file | Siarhei Siamashka | |
2011-12-22 | Fix big endian bugs | Siarhei Siamashka | |
Now it seems to work correctly and provide performance ~0.58 khash/s per thread on Cell PPU. | |||
2011-12-22 | Unmangle scrypt.c (revert to cd0b57640c0de03ac23bc965649d4085b1a2556a) | Siarhei Siamashka | |
The mangled scrypt.c from Art Forz is too much broken on big endian systems. Revert it back to something that is more maintainable. | |||

2011-06-08 | Merge pull request #23 from ckolivas/master | Jeff Garzik | |
Here's my x86_64 and linux optimisations. Hopefully shouldn't break other OSs now. | |||
2011-06-09 | Linux + x86_64 optimisations. | ckolivas | |
Add likely() macro. Optimise a few obvious code paths with likely/unlikely. Change algo to sse2_amd64 by default. Move priority change to worker threads only. Detect number of CPUs and set default number of threads == CPUs. Add scheduling policy change to worker threads to SCHED_IDLE first and fallback to SCHED_BATCH on linux. Don't error when failing to set priority. Add CPU affinity and bind worker threads to CPUs when number of threads is a multiple of number of CPUs. Update NEWS with changes. | |||
2011-06-09 | configure.ac: Beautify yasm test output | Christian Ludwig | |
2011-06-08 | Fix libcurl include path | Christian Ludwig | |
Fix the include path for libcurl, if it was installed in a location where gcc does not look by default. The variable is declared in the LIBCURL_CHECK_CONFIG m4 macro. | |||
