The files in this folder are used to override autotune settings
|
|
|
|
You can override configuration settings for Vector-Width, Kernel-Accel and/or Kernel-Loops values
|
|
You can filter by Device-Name, Device-Name alias, Attack-Mode and/or Hash-Type
|
|
|
|
Each file in this folder with the filename suffix .hctune will be automatically loaded by hashcat on startup with random order
|
|
|
|
- A valid line consists of the following fields (in that order):
|
|
- Device-Name
|
|
- Attack-Mode
|
|
- Hash-Type
|
|
- Vector-Width
|
|
- Kernel-Accel
|
|
- Kernel-Loops
|
|
- The first three columns define the filter, the other three is what is assigned when that filter matches
|
|
- If no filter matches, autotune is used
|
|
- Columns are separated with one or many spaces or tabs
|
|
- A line can not start with a space or a tab
|
|
- Comment lines are allowed, use a # as first character
|
|
- Invalid lines are ignored
|
|
- The Device-Name is the OpenCL Device-Name. It's shown on hashcat startup.
|
|
- If the device contains spaces, replace all spaces with _ character.
|
|
- Device Names prefixed with 'NVIDIA' will be matched with or without 'NVIDIA' present in the alias. e.g. 'NVIDIA_Tesla_T4' vs 'Tesla_T4'
|
|
- The Device-Name can be assigned an alias. This is useful if many devices share the same chip
|
|
- If you assign an alias, make sure to not use the devices name directly
|
|
- There's also a hard-wired Device-Name which matches all device types called:
|
|
- DEVICE_TYPE_CPU
|
|
- DEVICE_TYPE_GPU
|
|
- DEVICE_TYPE_ACCELERATOR
|
|
- The use of wildcards is allowed, some rules:
|
|
- Wildcards can only replace an entire Device-Name, not parts just of it. eg: not Geforce_*
|
|
- The policy is local > global, means the closer you configure something, the more likely it is selected
|
|
- The policy testing order is from left to right
|
|
- Attack modes can be:
|
|
- 0 = Dictionary-Attack
|
|
- 1 = Combinator-Attack, will also be used for attack-mode 6 and 7 since they share the same kernel
|
|
- 3 = Mask-Attack
|
|
- The Kernel-Accel is a multiplier to OpenCL's concept of a workitem, not the workitem count
|
|
- The Kernel-Loops has a functionality depending on the hash-type:
|
|
- Slow Hash: Number of iterations calculated per workitem
|
|
- Fast Hash: Number of mutations calculated per workitem
|
|
- None of both should be confused with the OpenCL concept of a "thread", this one is maintained automatically
|
|
- The Vector-Width can have only the values 1, 2, 4, 8 or 'N', where 'N' stands for native, which is an OpenCl-queried data value
|
|
- The Kernel-Accel is limited to 1024
|
|
- The Kernel-Loops is limited to 1024
|
|
- The Kernel-Accel can have 'A', where 'A' stands for autotune
|
|
- The Kernel-Accel can have 'M', where 'M' stands for maximum possible
|
|
- The Kernel-Loops can have 'A', where 'A' stands for autotune
|
|
- The Kernel-Loops can have 'M', where 'M' stands for maximum possible
