MINERS
⛏ TeamRedMiner v0.8.1 (Big Navi support added. This is just a basic support release for all supported Navi algos (ethash, kawpow, mtp, nimiq); Kernels are close to or identical with Navi10 A-mode (ethash) and default modes for Navi10 (kawpow, mtp, nimiq); Please read the updated ETHASH_TUNING_GUIDE.txt for a short tuning section at the very end of the file; Big Navi should run in A-mode for ethash (default choice), not B-mode. Read tuning guide for more info; Eth+zil mining: new pool strategy 'min_epoch' added for switching between plain eth and eth+zil pools; Ethash: Navi display gpus now using A-mode by default to prevent allocation issues, especially on Windows; Statistics: now proper handling of negative temperatures under Linux)
⛏ Lolminer v1.21 (slightly improved the performance of Linux zombie mode on Polaris GPUs on medium tune stages (needs re-tuning from previous settings); increased range of accepted zombie tune parameter for GPUs with high interconnect bandwidth; slightly decreased GPU load of Polaris GPUs during DAG build; Added more control about handling cards that are detected to be non-working any more. Use parameter --watchdog off/exit/script to turn off any action, exit the miner with a specific exit code or to run an external script. See detail description on the 1.21 release page; Nvidia cards that experienced a OpenCL driver error (e.g. "CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES" will now also trigger the watchdog with the configured effect; The '--ethstratum' parameter can now take two options separated by a ',' to give different options in case the dual or split mining mode is used; The dns resolving and the connection attempt can now timeout (after 10 seconds each) and will re-try to connect afterwards. This fixes an issue when a pool went offline and the following connection attempt takes indefinitely much time. Each timeout event contributes to the counter that will trigger switching to fail-over pools; Fixed a issue that might cause the rig to drop to 0 hash rate on epoch changes - including changes with activated ZIL caching; Fixed the pool hash rate reporting not working correctly in dual & split stratum modes; Fixed the dual stratum connection not picking up the correct worker name when '--worker' is used; Fixed miner not loading Ethash/Etchash kernels on Tahiti and Hawaii GPUs when using older then end 2017 drivers)
⛏ SRBMiner-Multi v0.6.4 (added algorithm 'autolykos2' Ergo coin for CPU/GPU mining, fee 1.25%; performance increase on 'phi5' algorithm on CPU's with AVX2; removed devfee for 'cryptonight_heavyx' algorithm; bug fixes)
⛏ Xmrig v6.8.1 (Added documentation for config.json CPU options; Fixed AMD GPUs health data readings on Linux; Fixed compilation error when RandomX and Argon2 are disabled; Added support for flexible huge page sizes on Linux; Fixed illegal instruction crash on ARM)
