Decrease the time it takes to run a benchmark
Removed --benchmark-repeat, it creates no advantage
Fix some wording related to drivers
Dropped special 64-bit rotate() handling for NV
Cleanup SHA384
Cleanup try_run()
- Dropped static declaration from functions in all kernel to achieve OpenCL 1.1 compatibility
- Added -cl-std=CL1.1 to all kernel build options
- Created environment variable to inform NVidia OpenCL runtime to not create its own kernel cache
- Created environment variable to inform pocl OpenCL runtime to not create its own kernel cache
1) SIMD code for all attack-mode
Macro vector_accessible() was not refactored and missing completely.
Had to rename variables rules_cnt, combs_cnt and bfs_cnt into il_cnt which was a good thing anyway as with new SIMD code they all act in the same way.
2) SIMD code for attack-mode 0
With new SIMD code, apply_rules_vect() has to return u32 not u32x.
This has massive impact on all *_a0 kernels.
I've rewritten most of them. Deep testing using test.sh is still required.
Some kernel need more fixes:
- Some are kind of completely incompatible like m10400 but they still use old check_* includes, we should get rid of them as they are no longer neccessary as we have simd.c
- Some have a chance but require additional effort like m11500. We can use commented out "#define NEW_SIMD_CODE" to find them
This change can have negative impact on -a0 performance for device that require vectorization. That is mostly CPU devices. New GPU's are all scalar, so they wont get hurt by this.
This change also proofes that there's no way to efficiently vectorize kernel rules with new SIMD code, but it enables the addition of the rule functions like @ that we were missing for some long time. This is a TODO.
- Some performance on low-end GPU may drop because of that, but only for a few hash-modes
- Dropped scalar code (aka warp) since we do not have any vector datatypes anymore
- Renamed C++ overloading functions memcat32_9 -> memcat_c32_w4x4_a3x4
- Still need to fix kernels to new function names, needs to be done manually
- Temperature Management needs to be rewritten partially because of conflicting datatypes names
- Added code to create different codepaths for NV on AMD in runtime in host (see data.vendor_id)
- Added code to create different codepaths for NV on AMD in runtime in kernels (see IS_NV and IS_AMD)
- First tests working for -m 0, for example
- Great performance increases in general for NV so far
- Tested amp_* and markov_* kernel
- Migrated special NV optimizations for rule processor
