Building on Linux

Steps:

0. Get the AMD APP SDK

Go here and grab the AMD APP SDK 3.0. Install it to /opt/AMDAPPSDK-3.0.

1. Clone

git clone https://github.com/brian112358/avermore-miner

2. Prepare for compilation

• change dir to the cloned repository

cd avermore-miner

• next steps are basically the same from the main README:

git submodule update --init --recursive
./autogen.sh
CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native -std=gnu99  -I/opt/AMDAPPSDK-3.0/include" ./configure <options>

If you installed the AMD APP SDK somewhere else, just modify the path in the CFLAGS string.

3. Build it

make -j3 (to use 3 threads, adjust depending on your cpu)

4. Run it

You can either run make install or you can run it from the build directory. Sample script file to run the miner:

#!/bin/bash

export GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR=1
export GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE=100
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
export GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT=100

ADDRESS="your address"
POOL="stratum+tcp://<pool.url>:<port>"
PASSWORD="x"
XINTENSITY="512"
THREADS="2"

./sgminer -k x16r -o $POOL -u $ADDRESS -p $PASSWORD -X $XINTENSITY --gpu-threads $THREADS

Experiment with different values for --xintensity like 256, 384, etc

Save it in a file, for instance miner.sh, make it executable (chmod +x miner.sh) and run it: ./miner.sh
