Re: CGMINER GPU bitforce overclock monitor fanspeed GCN RPC linux/windows/osx 2.2.6

More AMD breakage coming up. As Diapolo hinted earlier, there is a new AMD driver 12.2 with an SDK that claims to be sdk 2.6 but comes up with the version number 898.1. It breaks cgminer completely making it unable to build any binaries. Angry

I have yet to investigate why but please do not upgrade unless you already have .bin files that work. I'm going to start a collection of bin files that people may be able to download and they'll be housed here:

Alternatively you could install upgrade but (in windows) select custom install and UNCHECK SDK. Not sure if 12.2 has any notable changes compared to 12.1 but if it does that is way to get "improved" ( Huh

with AMD deproved) and keep existing SDK installation.

Yes, for now one should uncheck OpenCL Runtime during Catalyst upgrade until CGMINER is fixed.
My first look made me scream on another fact, they did heavy work on their OpenCL compiler, which tends to behave again very differently compared to former versions ... seems like more work in the future Cheesy

(it looks like they preffer vector GPRs over scalar GPRs with the new runtime as there are massive shifts in GPR usage).

Well I believe I've fixed this in my git tree, and I've uploaded an exe into that temp directory as always. If someone is brave enough to try the latest driver 12.2 with its sdk on 64 bit windows with this executable I'd be mighty grateful:
