PoCX v1.0.3 — Patch Release

Rolls up all plotter fixes since v1.0.1 (v1.0.2 was tagged but the binary release was skipped). Workspace-wide bump: all 10 crates move to 1.0.3 in lockstep for source-truth alignment with crates.io.

Fixes:

  • pocx_plotter_v2: Writer-thread I/O errors (ENOSPC, network share disconnect, permission denied) now propagate cleanly via the on_error callback and Plotter::run result. Previously, routine I/O failures panicked in a worker thread — uncatchable by run_plotter_safe's catch_unwind, and silently aborting the host process under panic = "abort".
  • pocx_plotter_v2: Keep full cores/kws on permissive drivers. The earlier unconditional kernel-workgroup reduction was over-correcting for iGPU and penalizing non-pow2 dGPUs.
  • pocx_plotter: xpu_scheduler now skips already-completed paths in round-robin instead of phantom-incrementing them — fixes uneven multi-path plotting where paths had different number_of_plots.
  • pocx_plotter / pocx_plotfile: Finalize kill-window .tmp files at scheduler init. Completes the .tmp → .pocx rename when the previous run was killed in the gap between the final write_resume_info and the rename.
  • pocx_plotter: cpu_threads no longer overflows on systems with ≥256 threads (was being truncated by an internal u8 cast).

Pre-built binaries for all supported platforms.

Single Binary Design: OpenCL GPU acceleration is dynamically loaded at runtime.
The same binary works on systems with or without OpenCL installed.

Platforms:

  • Linux x86_64 (glibc and musl builds)
  • Linux ARM64 (glibc and musl builds)
  • Android ARM64
  • Windows x86_64
  • macOS x86_64 / ARM64 (Apple Silicon)

Linux Compatibility Note:

  • *-linux-musl builds are statically linked and work on any Linux distribution
  • Use musl builds for maximum compatibility (Ubuntu 20.04+, Debian, Alpine, etc.)
  • *-linux-gnu builds require glibc 2.39+ (Ubuntu 24.04+, Fedora 40+, Arch)

Binaries:

  • pocx_miner - Mining client
  • pocx_plotter - Plot file generator (GPU accelerated when OpenCL available)
  • pocx_plotter_v2 - Next-gen plot file generator with ring scheduler
  • pocx_verifier - Plot verification tool
  • pocx_aggregator - Mining proxy/aggregator
  • pocx_mockchain - Mock blockchain for testing

Configuration Files:

  • miner_config.yaml - Miner configuration template
  • aggregator_config.yaml - Aggregator configuration template
  • mockchain_config.toml - Mockchain configuration template

Installation:

# Linux/macOS
tar -xzf pocx-*.tar.gz
./pocx_miner --version

# Windows
# Extract pocx-*.zip
.\pocx_miner.exe --version
