This is a multi-threaded CPU pool miner for M7M/Magi (XMG).

This miner designates control of the CPU usage. The core hash function is optimzed based the code released by Wolf0 mainly by revising See: https://github.com/wolf9466/wolf-m7m-cpuminer and: https://github.com/magi-project/wolf-m7m-cpuminer-V2

Dependencies: libcurl http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/ libgmp http://gmplib.org/ openssl http://www.openssl.org/ jansson http://www.digip.org/jansson/ (jansson is optional, and is included in-tree)

Basic *nix build instructions: ./autogen.sh && ./configure CFLAGS="-O3" CXXFLAGS="-O3" && make ./autogen.sh # only needed if building from git repo ./nomacro.pl # only needed if building on Mac OS X or with Clang ./configure CFLAGS="-O3" CXXFLAGS="-O3" make

Notes for AIX users:

Basic Windows build instructions, using MinGW: Install MinGW and the MSYS Developer Tool Kit (http://www.mingw.org/)

Architecture-specific notes: ARM: No runtime CPU detection. The miner can take advantage of some instructions specific to ARMv5E and later processors, but the decision whether to use them is made at compile time, based on compiler-defined macros. To use NEON instructions, add "-mfpu=neon" to CFLAGS. x86: The miner checks for SSE2 instructions support at runtime, and uses them if they are available. x86-64: The miner can take advantage of AVX, AVX2 and XOP instructions, but only if both the CPU and the operating system support them.

Usage instructions: Run "m-minerd --help" to see options.

Connecting through a proxy: Use the --proxy option. To use a SOCKS proxy, add a socks4:// or socks5:// prefix to the proxy host. Protocols socks4a and socks5h, allowing remote name resolving, are also available since libcurl 7.18.0. If no protocol is specified, the proxy is assumed to be a HTTP proxy. When the --proxy option is not used, the program honors the http_proxy and all_proxy environment variables.

Also many issues and FAQs are covered in the forum thread dedicated to this program, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=55038.0

Solo mining: ./m-minerd --url http://127.0.0.1:RPCPORT/ --user RPCUSER --pass RPCPASSWORD --threads thread_numbers -e cpu_efficiency

Pool mining: ./m-minerd -o stratum+tcp://pool_url:pool_port -u pool_user.worker -p password -t thread_numbers -e cpu_efficiency

Scrypts: m-minerd.sh, m-minerd.bat; change rpcport, rpc user and pass accordinly.
