Okay, thanks for the info. I was going by this list: http://pools.garlicoin.fun/ and choosing pools where it said "Allium ready: yes".


Yeah, that just means they're ready for the switchover this Friday. Should be seamless. Until then, you have to use scrypt:2048.

Can't mine any Garlicoin, shares are always rejected (tried 3 different pools):

Code:
[2018-02-15 23:16:32] Share submitted.
[2018-02-15 23:16:32] CPU #1: 107.11 kH, 113.17 kH/s
[2018-02-15 23:16:32] Rejected 14/14 (100.0%), diff 0.0294, 883.56 kH/s
[2018-02-15 23:16:32] reject reason: low difficulty share of 0.000040906673679398166


You can't mine Garlicoin with Allium until the fork. You have to use -a scrypt:2048 until then.
You can try mining on a testnet pool like stratum+tcp://testnet.garlic-factory.fun:3333

Got a Garlicoin wallet I can donate to?

If you can do it, I'll gladly tip in GRLC if you'll accept. I'll still try my hand at hacking it together with my fork. I want to learn. Will try figuring this out on my end. Thanks!

I added null and 1 in the matrix, and now it builds, but it gives me a segmentation fault with either option. I think I'm missing something. Is there a chance I could chat with you through discord or something like that? Do you have time?

Hey there. I sent you an email yesterday about adding an algorithm. Did you get a chance to see it? I'd gladly tip you for your help.
I stayed up pretty late last night troubleshooting, and I've already added the algo, but I can't get CPU temps or accepted/rejected hashes to show up when actually connected to a testnet pool.

There was no link in the email, not that I had already read it.

Try using LYRA2REV2 instead of LYRA2RE. I'm not sure why it makes a difference but it does.
You'll need to add another argument for the matrix, take a look at lyra2rev2.c for how it's done.

You left a lot of defaults for gate functions. are you sure that's correct?

I can add the algo, when it's working, and it will be much faster (with AVX2) compared to the your
fork. CPU temps are only avaiable on Linux.

Currently working in Linux Mint 18. Will try your suggestion and give it a shot. Thank you! The source I used for Allium came from github.com/GarlicoinOrg/cpuminer-multi. After reading more about the algo itself, I did switch it over to LYRA2REV2 like you suggested, but I haven't taken a look at the extra args yet. Probably why I'm getting "too few arguments to function" when building.

As for the gate functions, I really don't know. I haven't dived into C for a couple years, and I just wanted to add the algo to the miner I prefer.
