FreeBSD 11

There are 2 different ways of installing XMRig on FreeBSD 11.

1. Installation via the ports collection:

cd /usr/ports/net-p2p/xmrig && make install clean

or

cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portmaster && make install clean
portmaster net-p2p/xmrig

2. Using binary packages and building XMRig from source:

Using Clang:

pkg install git clang38 cmake libuv libmicrohttpd
git clone https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig.git
cd xmrig
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

or

Using GCC:

pkg install git gcc7 cmake libuv libmicrohttpd
git clone https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig.git
cd xmrig
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc7 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++7 ..
make

Additional CMake options

• -DWITH_LIBCPUID=OFF Disable libcpuid. Auto configuration of CPU after this will be very limited.
• -DWITH_AEON=OFF Disable CryptoNight-Lite support.
• -DWITH_HTTPD=OFF Build without built-in httpd and API.
• -DUV_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib/libuv.a Use static libuv version.
• -DMHD_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib/libmicrohttpd.a Use static libmicrohttpd version.

@xmrig, cmake/FindUV.cmake is using static linking of libuv by default.
