Add hipDeviceProp_t and bindings for hipGetDeviceProperties(), hipGetDeviceProperties is required to retrieve gcnArchName[].
Add gcnArchName[] to select the correct --gpu-architecture value for a specific device when using hiprtc.
Include sm_major and sm_minor for CUDA and gcnArchName for HIP in the kernel filename hash.
Update nvrtc_options[] and hiprtc_options[] to avoid unused variables, eliminating the use of --restrict as a placeholder and preventing nvrtc from aborting.
Add check_file_suffix() and remove_file_suffix() helper functions.
General:
The logic for calculating the SCRYPT workload has been moved
from module_extra_buffer_size() to module_extra_tuningdb_block().
Previously, this function just returned values from a static
tuning file. Now, it actually computes tuning values on the fly
based on the device's resources and SCRYPT parameters. This
was always possible, it just wasn't used that way until now.
After running the calculation, the calculated kernel_accel value
is injected into the tuning database as if it had come from a
file. The tmto value is stored internally.
Users can still override kernel-threads, kernel-accel, and
scrypt-tmto via the command line or via tuningdb file.
module_extra_tuningdb_block():
This is now where kernel_accel and tmto are automatically
calculated.
The logic for accel and tmto is now separated and more
flexible. Whether the user is using defaults, tuningdb entries, or
manual command line overrides, the code logic will try to make
smart choices based on what's actually available on the device.
First, it tries to find a kernel_accel value that fits into
available memory. It starts with a base value and simulates
tmto=1 or 2 (which is typical good on GPU).
It also leaves room for other buffers (like pws[], tmps[], etc.).
If the result is close to the actual processor count,
it gets clamped.
This value is then added to the tuning database, so hashcat can pick
it up during startup.
Once that's set, it derives tmto using available memory, thread
count, and the actual SCRYPT parameters.
module_extra_buffer_size():
This function now just returns the size of the SCRYPT B[] buffer,
based on the tmto that was already calculated.
kernel_threads:
Defaults are now set to 32 threads in most cases. On AMD GPUs,
64 threads might give a slight performance bump, but 32 is more
consistent and reliable.
For very memory-heavy algorithms (like Ethereum Wallet), it
scales down the thread count.
Here's a rough reference for other SCRYPT-based modes:
- 64 MiB: 16 threads
- 256 MiB: 4 threads
Tuning files:
All built-in tuningdb entries have been removed, because they
shouldn’t be needed anymore. But you can still add custom entries
if needed. There’s even a commented-out example in the tuningdb
file for mode 22700.
Free memory handling:
Getting the actual amount of free GPU memory is critical for
this to work right. Unfortunately, none of the common GPGPU APIs
give reliable numbers. We now query low-level interfaces like
SYSFS (AMD) and NVML (NVIDIA). Support for those APIs is in
place already, except for ADL, which still needs to be added.
Because of this, hwmon support (which handles those low-level
queries) can no longer be disabled.
Remove existing tuningdb entries due to salsa_r() core
refactor. Update tuningdb engine to prefer file entries,
when available, over automatic discovery.
Improve memory-free detection per device, default
--backend-device-keepfree is now set to 0.
Old brute-force OpenCL behavior can be restored using
--backend-device-keepfree 100.
- Skip memory-free detection on MS OpenCL platform to avoid crashes
- Improve salt usage of 70100/70200, use decoder/kernels from 8900
- Add REPLACE bridge type support (eg. BRIDGE_TYPE_REPLACE_LOOP)
- Switch 70000, 70100 and 70200 to BRIDGE_TYPE_REPLACE_LOOP
- Add synchronization barriers on d2h copy when using bridges
- Improve speed status display updates when using bridges
- Set AMD_DIRECT_DISPATCH=0 to reduce CPU burning loop on AMD backends
- Set benchmark/selftest hash on 70100/70200 to 16:8:1
Various types included in zlib.h such as gzFile are implicitly included
with minizip. Get rid of this behavior and explicitly include zlib.h.
