Jens Steube b2c308d403 Add runtime OpenCL version detection and discrete Intel GPU tuning
Detect the highest supported OpenCL version at runtime and use the
appropriate -cl-std= flag when compiling kernels. This improves
compatibility with the Intel NEO driver. Note: behavior is untested
on other platforms (NVIDIA, AMD, Apple, etc.). Feedback will be
monitored.

Add tuningdb entries for discrete Intel GPUs. Copy over hash-mode
patterns that benefit from vectorizing on scalar compute units, based
on existing AMD and NVIDIA entries. This change also removes the
artificial thread limit previously enforced for discrete Intel GPUs.

Disable automatic vector width detection from the OpenCL runtime
except on CPU, where it remains in use.

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
