Miner fee reduced by 0.25% while mining on Flockpool.com
Come, check it out and visit our Discord !

Remember that you can reuse the tune_config and config.json
files from version 1.2.X by copying them into the 1.2.3 main folder.

General Changes:

  • Disable new rplant protocol by default. Can be enabled with --confirm-block
    Please do not use this flag until rplant fixes their pool!
    rplant is not counting skipped shares on their backend
    towards the users which lead to lower miner payouts/hashrate on the pool.
  • Minor output changes.
  • Remove some sleeps on Windows release as help and benchmark.log are now
    available for users.
  • Add info if the user is trying to use SSL protocol for non-SSL stratum when
    miner is not able to connect to the pool's stratum.
  • Warn users if they are possibly using not optimal binaries.
  • Make sure Windows .bat file starts proper binaries after the miner crash.
  • Build-in stress test.

Flags:

  • Add --temp-sensor=PATH - Specify temperature readout file/sensor.
  • Add --stress-test - Stress test CPU with 2 fastest rotations.
  • Add --confirm-block - Enable miner to send more data if a share is solving
    the block.
    This should provide users with good stress test for their CPU in case
    they want to check basic system stability. Running it for 15 minutes minimum
    should provide basic stability validation. Longer runs are recommended but not
    necessary.

Miner/System crashes:

  • Before reporting any cases of crashing / BSOD. Please make sure your CPU
    is fully stable. IF and only IF your system can pass ~20-30 passes of 8GB+
    datasets of Linpack Xtreme, please contact me on discord so we can investigate.

  • Running miner for 15-30 minutes with "stress-test": true, is also recommended
    to test basic stability of the system.

HiveOS:

For HiveOS binary replacement please check 1.2.2 release notes.
You can reuse 1.2.2 tune_config by running this command
mkdir /hive/miners/cpuminer-opt/gr/1.2.3 ; cp /hive/miners/cpuminer-opt/gr/1.2.2/tune_config /hive/miners/cpuminer-opt/gr/1.2.3/
Adding miner flag "tune-config": "/hive/miners/cpuminer-opt/gr/tune_config"
will save tune config in the same place with each version. This will eliminate
the need for retuning or running the above command.

Binary replacement (zen3, change RYZEN variable to zen2 or zen if needed)
export RYZEN=zen3 && wget https://github.com/WyvernTKC/cpuminer-gr-avx2/releases/download/1.2.3/cpuminer-gr-1.2.3-x86_64_linux.tar.gz && tar xf cpuminer-gr-1.2.3-x86_64_linux.tar.gz && cp cpuminer-gr-1.2.3-x86_64_linux/binaries/* /hive/miners/cpuminer-opt/gr/1.2.3/ && cp cpuminer-gr-1.2.3-x86_64_linux/binaries/cpuminer-avx /hive/miners/cpuminer-opt/gr/1.2.3/cpuminer-aes-avx && cp cpuminer-gr-1.2.3-x86_64_linux/binaries/cpuminer-${RYZEN} /hive/miners/cpuminer-opt/gr/1.2.3/cpuminer-avx2-sha && sed -i 's/LIBCURL3_COMPAT=1/LIBCURL3_COMPAT=0/g' /hive/miners/cpuminer-opt/h-manifest.conf
