Shares and speed improvements v1.2

This is a recommended update for all users Depending on several factors some shares were lost, this update fixes the issue. On machines affected by this issue it will reflect a slight increment of shares on the pool side.

Also some optimizations added to X22i algorithm.

Changelist:

• Faster X22i
• Stratum connection stability improved
• Bugfix: edge cases with lost shares
• Algorithm name command argument now non-case sensitivity

VEGA fixes v1.1

Changelist:

• VEGA bad performance issue fixed
• Tonga GPUs family support added
• Algorithm name command argument now non-case sensitivity

SUQA v1.0

Some users with Vega got issues with this release, slower hashrate. So Vega users for now use this build if you have issues: https://github.com/zjazz/zjazz_cuda_miner_experimental/releases/tag/x22i_0994_amd

SUQA (X22i) is now officially supported and LUX (phi2) support has been removed.

Changelist:

• New coin supported: SUQA (X22i algorithm)
  • Compared with SUQA experimental version v0.994 this one up to 30% faster
• phi2 algorithm removed
• Baffin and Fiji AMD families support added
• Print hashrate per GPU enabled by default. Added new --hide-hashrate-per-gpu to disable it
• Total amount of shares sent to stratum added to the debug-info message
• Bugfix: Selecting a subset of gpus with -d and setting --device-gpu-threads per gpu didn't work as expected
• Improved GPU errors checking
• Miner restarts automatically if GPUs are not working properly (0 cycles/s issue). This behavior can be disabled with --disable-restart-on-gpu-error If disabled, instead of auto-restarting itself it will quit.
• Improved stratum management
• New dump output to file feature. Use -L or --log-file followed by the name of the file
• EthMonitoring compatible: --no-color treated as a valid parameter (ignored by the miner). It makes zjazz compatible with EthMonitoring when using the miner as ccminer API
• API summary/gpus incorrect hashrate bugfix
• API added threads function, better ccminer compatibilily (gpus and threads API functions do the same)
• API: Connected message only printed if --debug-info is enabled
• First API version: ccminer-like. summary, pool, gpus and quit functions available. -b/--api-bind
• List of failover pools added. Use multiple times -o (--url)
• GPU timeout feature added: Application quits if new blocks from stratum are received and GPUs are not mining. Timeout value can be set with --gpu-timeout
• Improved stats, show hashrate detailed per GPU with --hashrate-per-gpu
• Added some debug info messages. --debug-info to enable them
• Set the number of threads per device --device-gpu-threads
• Per line ok/ko state message added
• Force GPU processing to stop when connection with stratum server is lost
• Time to wait before reconnecting configurable: -R/--retry-pause parameter added
• Added extra error messages and minor fixes
