1 phoenixminer-v5.6c-beta (降低Nicehash拒绝率. 修复部分AMD GPU显卡获取温度的故障. 其他小改进)

2 lolminer-v1.28 (Significantly improved/speed up DAG repair function. The miner should produce valid DAG at high overclock. Emergency temperature stop now also working for Nvidia using CUDA. Zombie mode GPUs no longer crash during DAG verify. When one Nvidia GPU stops because of a recoverable error, this will no longer crash all other Nvidia GPUs. Fix --disbale-dag-verify not working for OpenCL fired cards. Fixed overzealous reconnection on Ethash connections when not receiving new work within 30 seconds (now limit 150s))

3 nbminer-nebutech-v37.3 (Add option --enable-dag-cache to allow an extra DAG for different epoch cached in GPU memory, useful for ETH+ZIL mining and mining on NiceHash)

4 lolminer-v1.27 (Added verify routine for Ethash dag epochs 400 to 450. In case the miner will detect defect entries, the CPU will try to fix this. Mining will be paused until the repair is completed. Use --disable-dag-verify to disable the verify & repair mechanism routine. Re-worked default Ethash kernels for Pascal GPUs - improved their performance. Added Ethash kernels for Fermi and Kepler GPUs. Most of them will only work for small epoch Eth forks. Nvidia cards on Ethash now pause when the stratum reports no current work (e.g. when connection was lost). Added a split DAG mode for Nvidia GPUs in case that the memory allocation fails on the primary kernels. This will be a bit slower, but improve compatibility, especially for 5G GPUs. Use --mode s to force it. Added parameter --cclk to fix the core clock of Nvidia Turing and newer GPUs without using external tools. Use a comma separated list to give different values to cards, use * to skip over cards. Needs super user or administrator privileges to work. Added new dualmode zilEx. This works like --dualmode zil but with the ability to use --dualdevices to exclude GPUs from switching to ZIL. They will continue on the secondary connection and do not switch. Added new dualmode eth. This will allow to point different GPUs to different pools. Added parameter --statsformat to use custom format for the bigger statistic box. The expected values are either compact or default or extended or a comma separated list of values. Use --help-format to get a list with accepted entries. Added reading of current core and memory clocks for AMD and Nvidia GPUs. Fixed a stratum error, that caused the "all shares stale" bug when too many reconnect attempts in a row did fail. Fixed a crash on Nvidia GPUs when mixing ethproxy and Nicehash stratum modes in dualmodes. Fixed zombie tune values not applied when using json format for configuring. Fixed displayed names of RX 6000 generation of cards and RTX 3060 in 460.x drivers. Deprecation notice: Furthermore Cuckaroo-29 with 48 cycle length - originally planned for Italocoin - got removed because of the lack of use)

5 sgminer-fancyIX-v0.7.5 (Fixed allium stability issue)。

6 gminer-v2.54 (Generates valid DAG on higher OC modes. Improved speed of DAG generation up to 2x)

7 nanominer-v3.3.5 (Fixed "Unknown GPU name" issue with new AMD drivers)。

8 phoenixminer-v5.6b-beta (Beta release. Added support for showing GPU hotspot (junction), and video memory temperatures for Nvidia GPUs. Note that the video memory temperature is only shown by some GPUs (3080, 3090, possibly 2080Ti). The options -ttj, -ttmem, -tmaxj, and -tmaxmem now also work with Nvidia GPUs. Added support for AMD Linux drivers 21.10-1244864-ubuntu-18.04 and 21.10-1247438-ubuntu-20.04 (use these only with Polaris or older GPUs, or with the latest RX6x00 GPUs, these drivers won't work with Vega, Radeon VII, or Navi GPUs))

9 teamredminer-v0.8.2.1 (Verthash: added --verthash_max_uploads=N to control the upload of the verthash table to gpus at startup. Some chipsets get issues running > 4 gpus concurrently. Typical error is that multiple gpus die immediately at startup when running the full rig, but work fine if you only run 3-4 gpus. Verthash: fixed support for 2GB gpus)

10 nbminer-nebutech-v37.2 (Add option -p -p1 -p2 for setting password of mining pool, old format -u wallet.worker:passwd is disabled, : can be added as part of worker or wallet. Ethash minor hashrate improvement on RDNA GPUs)

11 t-rex-v0.20.3 ((octopus) Add share validation support via --validate-shares parameter. Enable miner termination upon exceeding predefined maximum of total power consumption (see --exit-on-high-power in readme). (ethash) Performance degradation on Pascal and Turing GPUs. Miner fails to start after saving config file through Web UI. Miner fails to start if password (-p) is not specified. User script specified with --script-on-exit doesn't execute when miner gets shut down via WebUI. Minor cosmetic fixes)

12 xmrig-v6.12.1 (Fixed Zen3 assembly code for cn/upx2 algorithm)

13 teamredminer-v0.8.2 (Verthash algo added: good choice for Polaris 4GB gpus, not a good algo for Navi gpus - the RDNA architecture is not a good fit, hashrates at high tuning: 560 KH/s (Polaris), 1.2 MH/s (RX Vegas), 850 KH/s (5700XT). Tonga gpus (R9 285/285X/380/380X, W7100, S7150) now supported for ethash and kawpow. Extended support to 24 gpus (previous max was 16 gpus). Better handling of driver issues related to gpu clocks/temps stats.Now displaying sensor power in the 30s stats output. Fixed watchdog DEAD false alerts for small gpus building the kawpow DAG.Kawpow now working fully with MiningPoolHub, regardless of bad seedhash values)

14 xmrig-v6.12.0 (Added support for Uplexa (cn/upx2). RandomX: optimized IMUL_RCP instruction. Added support for --user command line option for online benchmark)

15 gminer-v2.53 (Fixed miner crashes on DAG changes for ETH+ZIL mining. Fixed DAG caching on 6GB cards. Apply lock_voltage before DAG generation (in 2.52 miner applied lock_voltage after DAG generation))

16 phoenixminer-v5.6a-beta (Added native kernels for AMD RX6700 GPUs. These are faster than the generic kernels and produce a lot less stale shares. Increase the max supported DAG epoch to 550 (should be enough to about Jan 2023) Full support for setting clocks, fan speeds, voltages, and memory timings of AMD RX6900/6800/6700 cards. The specific hashrate is now shown in the form of kilo hashes per joule (kH/J). Example: if a GPU has hashrate of 30 MH/s with 100W power usage, the specific hashrate is 300 kH/J. Added new command-line parameters -ttj and -ttmem, allowing automatic fan speed control based on GPU hotspot (junction), and memory temperatures respectively. Example: -ttmem 83 will keep the GPU memory temperature at or bellow 83C by increasing the fan speed as necessary. These parameters can be combined with -tt, as well as with each other. These options are supported only on AMD GPUs that report junction and memory temperatures. Added new command-line parameters -tmaxj and -tmaxmem, allowing to decrease the GPU usage when the GPU hotspot (junction), or GPU memory temperatures are above the specified thresholds. These options are supported only on AMD GPUs that report junction and memory temperatures. Added support for AMD Linux drivers 20.50.x. Use this drivers only if you have Polaris or older GPUs, or the latest RX6x000 GPUs. WARNING: Vega, Radeon VII, and Navi GPUs won't work with these drivers! Turn off the zero fan feature on AMD cards whenever a fixed fan speed is used (e.g. -tt -40), or when an auto fan with min fan speed is used (e.g. -tt 63 -minfan 35). To disable this feature, add -fanstop 1 command-line parameter)

17 srbminer-multi-v0.7.3 (Small improvement on cryptonight_xhv for some GPU's. Fixed --gpu-off-temperature. Fixed bugs with dual mining ZIL + any other algorithm. Removed parameters --gpu-target-temperature and --gpu-target-fan-speed - use external application instead. Minor bug fixes)

18 t-rex-v0.20.1 (--extra-dag-epoch can now be set per-GPU. Fixed miner crashes when --validate-shares is set. Fixed incorrect share difficulty suffix when diff is greater than 1000G. Fixed (Web UI) Hashrate chart resets at midnight. Fixed manually selected kernel number is not displayed at start up. Fixed incorrect failover pool setup args parsing (multiple -o, and single -u/-p pair causes empty username/pass for failover pools))

19 lolminer-v1.26 (Slightly improved performance of Ethash on Pascal/Turing/Ampere GPUs +0.1-0.2 mh. Performance hint for Pascal cards: 1070 and 1080 best use --mode a, 1070ti best use --mode b. Further reduced internal latency in Ethash Cuda back end - less stale shares & CPU load. Added experimental Grin-C32 kernel for Radeon 6700. Fixed bug in Cuda back-end to crash with a segfault on Epoch change (introduced in 1.25). Fixed a bug that Nvidia-GPUs did not start when Cuda Toolkit was not installed (It reported "No OpenCL devices found ..." - which was complete nonsense). Fixed some (rare) potential faults in Beam stratum)

20 gminer-v2.51 (Fixed bug with AE mining and bug with worker name appeared in 2.50)

21 srbminer-multi-v0.7.2 (Added algorithm heavyhash (oBTC - Optical Bitcoin), fee 2.5%. Dataset creation for autolykos2 on ellesmere GPU's faster ~3%. DevFee for verthash lowered to 1%. Parameter --disable-workers-ramp-up changed back to --enable-workers-ramp-up, so default value of ramp-up is now disabled. Api doesn't report 0 h/s anymore while creating dataset for autolykos2. Added parameter --max-no-submit-responses. Minor bug fixes)

22 t-rex-v0.20.0 (Remove old and rarely used algorithms (x25x, x16r, etc). Combine all CUDA builds into a single binary. (UI) Display maximum share difficulty if --validate-shares is set. --script-epoch-change fails to execute the script when switching to ZIL session when dual mining ETH+ZIL. (API) Inconsistent GPU ordering in API when --pci-indexing is set. Various stability issues)

23 xmrig-v6.11.2 (Fixed regression in HTTP parser and llhttp updated)

24 nanominer-v3.3.4 (Faster dataset creation for Ergo on AMD RX 4xx and 5xx series (autolykos2 algorithm))

25 lolminer-v1.29
