SYSTEM
⚙️ Added new mineros 4.14 image (os: Ubuntu 20.04, kernel: 5.6.19, amd: opencl legacy+pal 20.10, nvidia: 450.80.02). There is no need to update drivers for nvidia GPUs series 10xx-20xx. However, for the 30xx series it is necessary to execute the nv_update NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-455.45.01.run command, since drivers for this series of video cards are different. Also included in the image are all updated files including atitool.

MINERS
⛏ Gminer v2.36 (support extra nonce length up to 6 bytes for Ethash/KAWPOW algorithms, now miner will works on f2pool, miningpoolhub and other pools; added display of fan speed, core clock, memory clock, DAG size, share difficulty for Ethash/KAWPOW algorithms; display power efficienty for cuckoo cycle algorithms in milliwatts; fixed bug with stale job logic on beam and cortex - it will increase hashrate on pool side; added option to enable/disable caching of dag file, enabled by default, --cache_dag 0/1; added option to enable/disable share check on CPU for Ethash/KAWPOW algorithms, enabled by default, --share_check 0/1)
⛏ SRBMiner-Multi v0.6.0 (small performance increase on 'cryptonight_gpu', 'curvehash' algorithms; slow start (ramp up) of GPU's on miner start is now on by default; added parameter '--disable-workers-ramp-up'; removed 'tellor', 'rainforestv2' algorithms)
⛏ CPUminer-Opt by rplant v5.0.5 (fixing a critical bug with "job not found" shares. On sugarchain, the update is mandatory, on other coins it is desirable)

MINERS
⛏ PhoenixMiner v5.4c (Added support for DAG epochs up to 500; Validated support for Nvidia RTX 3090, 3080, 3070, and 3060Ti GPUs. Those still use the current kernels and there are no speed increases from the previous PhoenixMiner release; Added new kernels to allow mining on AMD Hawaii cards (R9 390, etc.) with the current and future DAG epochs (even with DAG buffer above 4GB for the 8GB cards)
⛏ TeamRedMiner v0.7.21 (improved probability for high (4078-4080 MB) ethash 4GB capped allocation running stable over time that could fix crash after 5-10 mins)
⛏ CPUminer-Opt by rplant v5.0.4 (added circcash algo for CIRC/CircCash; miner for all DNS requests use CloudFlare DoH)

⚙️ Added a program for advanced overclocking of AMD cards - atitool. Example for setting SOC value for Navi GPUs - Here

MINERS
⛏ BMiner v16.3.7 (Support NVIDIA 30 Series Graphics Cards; Fix crash in NVIDIA Etherum miner)

What's new?

MINERS
⛏ GMiner v2.35 (improved compatibility with Ethash pools (beepool.org); added DAG check after generation for Ethash and ProgPoW/KAWPOW algorithms, this feature help to detect overclock issues; improved compatibility with AMD devices under Windows, now miner display temperature and power consumption for newest AMD cards; improved AMD support under Linux (fixed "No device found" error on some system configurations); improved support of newest Nvidia drivers (fixed "NVML initialization failed" error); decreased stale share percentage on ProgPoW/KAWPOW algorithms; not stop miner when DAG generation failed on some GPU (this GPU will be marked RED in statistics); removed algorithms: Eaglesong, Handshake, Kadena, BeamHashI, BeamHashII, Grimm, Cuckaroo29, Cuckaroom29, Equihash 96,5; significantly reduced binary size; significantly performance improvements for KAWPOW/ProgPoW algorithms on mining edition GPUs)
⛏ LolMiner v1.17 (Significantly reduced Ethash power draw on Navi GPUs, Slightly improved performance of 6800 (XT) / 6900; Added Cuckoo-29, Cuckaroo-30 CTX, Cuckatoo-31 (MWC) and Cuckatoo-32 (Grin) for RX 6800 family of GPUs; Reduced number of stale shares on Cortex algorithm. This will result in a minimally lower displayed hash rate, but higher pool side hash; Added a basic temperature protection mechanism. See notes below for usage; Added parameter '--singlethread' to work with Ethash and Equihash algorithm. This will disable the 2nd mining thread and slightly reduce performance of the involved cards. Use this option to reduce stumbles when a card does graphic output in parallel. Use '--singlethread' (equivalent to '--singlethread -1') to enable single thread mode for all GPUs, use '--singlethread' to set the mode for one single card; Added reading of junction temperature on AMD GPUs; The API is now bound to the local host, causing less issues with firewalls; Fixed bugs: Ethash Ethproxy stratum mode some times loosing worker name; Beam Hash III not starting up in Linux on RX 5000 & RX 6000 series card on amdgpu-pro 20.45 driver; Ethash & Beam not starting up on Radeon R9 380; Ethash not starting up on some 6G Nvidia cards; Ethash mining frequently trying to start up a card if there was an error during mining; "DEVICES" parameter not working when configuring the miner from json file)
⛏ CPUminer-Opt-JayDDee v3.15.4 (fixed yescryptr16 broken in v3.15.3)

MINERS
⛏ PhoenixMiner v5.4b (new kernels for AMD Vega and Navi GPUs that are slightly faster when the DAG buffer is approaching or passing 4GB in size - work on AMD drivers 20.10+; re-running auto-tune as needed when switching to a different DAG buffer type, e.g. when switching from ETH to ETC, or back; other small fixes and improvements)
⛏ TeamRedMiner v0.7.20 (ethash: added default capped DAG allocation for 4GBs at 4072MB, see '--eth_4g_max_alloc'; ethash: bugfix for crashes using '--eth_dag_cache' on 4GB GPUs)
⛏ NBMiner v35.0 (added statistics for invalid shares on ethash; added statistics for Health information of AMD GPU; more detailed error information of OpenCL API; reduced CPU usage)
⛏ GMiner v2.34 (added DAG check after generation for Ethash and ProgPoW/KAWPOW algorithms, this feature help to detect overclock issues; decreased stale share percentage on ProgPoW/KAWPOW algorithms; improved AMD support)
⛏ T-Rex v0.19.4 (changes for 0.19.3&0.19.4: improved octopus performance 1-2% on some configurations; reduced the amount of invalid shares on ethash and octopus; added --no-hashrate-report parameter to disable hashrate reporting to the mining pool; added --keep-gpu-busy parameter to continue mining even in case of connection loss: useful if pausing GPUs causes instability)
⛏ NanoMiner v3.1.4 (fixed stability issue with AMD RX 5700 mining Ethash)
⛏ SRBMiner-Multi v0.5.9 (fixed a bug on 'randomx' algorithm that could cause miner to create invalid shares for some jobs; removed algorithms: 'cryptonight_bbc', 'cryptonight_catalans'; bug fixes)
⛏ WildRig-Multi v0.28.2 (x11k algo will use the same algo for devfee, this should improve miner stability on some cards; option --print-devices now will print busID)
⛏ CPUMiner-Opt-rplant v5.0.1 (added automatic selection of the nearest working stratum and switching on errors; improved yescrypt/yespower; fixed latency display; many other improvements and bug fixes)
⛏ CPUMiner-Opt-JayDDee v3.15.3 (various improvements and optimizations)
