Judging from your log it seems to be working fine. It's just very slow, but I would expect that from an algorithm as heavy as scrypt:1048576
.
Could be useful a -D run? Thanks.
The simplest way to know if it's working is to wait and see if shares get accepted or rejected. Whether you are likely to find a share anytime soon depends on the difficulty set by the server, which you can find out about by running in debug mode.
Ok thanks, I will run it and see if I find some shares and report here.
Hi there!
I've compiled cpuminer on my new sparc T1 server with 256 CPU but mining performances are terrible!! The hashrate is less then on my laptop :)
I think it could be nice if someone compile sha256 and scrypt for a native cpu support. I found this link for sha256 https://github.com/pinkjersey/sha256lib but nothing on scrypt.
Could someone take a look?
Cheers, Marco
Hi
so I thought I would have a go at compiling this pooler-cpuminer-2.5.0 on my Sun/Oracle T4-2 after seeing these posts.
However, got the folling errors...
can anyone advise please ??

Is Jansson properly installed on your system? It would appear that the library is there but the header file is not.
Thanks for your response pooler and its funny you mention that, as I was thinking jansson could be the problem somewhere !!
The system is a fresh install as follows...
s11.3 install pkg update reboot pkg install developer/gcc-4/gcc-c-48 pkg install library/jansson
However, this was the output when installing the jansson package...
root@BitCoin:~# pkg search jansson INDEX ACTION VALUE PACKAGE com.oracle.info.description set the Jansson C library pkg:/library/jansson@2.7-0.175.3.0.0.30.0 pkg.description set Jansson is a C library for encoding, decoding and manipulating JSON data. It features a simpl e and intuitive API and data model, comprehensive documentation, full Unicode support (UTF-8), an extensive test suite and no de pendencies on other libraries. pkg:/library/jansson@2.7-0.175.3.0.0.30.0 pkg.summary set Jansson - C library for working with JSON data pkg:/library/jansson@2.7-0.175.3.0.0.30.0 com.oracle.info.name set jansson pkg:/library/jansson@2.7-0.175.3.0.0.30.0 pkg.fmri set solaris/library/jansson pkg:/library/jansson@2.7-0.175.3.0.0.30.0
root@BitCoin:~# pkg install library/jansson No updates necessary for this image.
So is there something else required ??
@brucestir, chances are gcc is not looking for the header file in the right place. If you can locate the file, try telling gcc where to find it with the -I
option. Alternatively, if you don't really need jansson to be installed system-wide, you can uninstall the library, so that cpuminer will try to use its in-tree version.
So here is what I can find...
root@BitCoin:/# find / -name jansson.h -print /usr/include/jansson/jansson.h /opt/csw/include/jansson.h /var/tmp/jansson-2.10/src/jansson.h /var/tmp/cpuminer-2.5.0/compat/jansson/jansson.h
Can you give me the full gcc command you're suggesting ??
@brucestir, maybe try this:
$ CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/include/jansson' ./configure
$ make
hey pooler, thanks, i'm guessing the output below is all good :-)

So wasn't sure what to expect, but I'm guessing it is doing its thing :-)
Unfortunately nothing in my wallet overnight and the statistics page suggessting i wont earn anything in a million years :-(
I thought these Sun SPARC chips (T4) had special crypto built into the chip and might prove useful ?!?!?
./minerd --url=stratum+tcp://sha256.eu.nicehash.com:3334 --userpass=blahblahblah
I think you're not using the right algorithm for that server. Try with -a sha256d
.
I thought these Sun SPARC chips (T4) had special crypto built into the chip and might prove useful ?!?!?
The code is not optimized for SPARC. As has already been pointed out, it could be optimized, but I don't have time to dedicate to this currently. Also keep in mind that, even with optimizations, it will probably never be profitable.
...ok thanks pooler, I'll give that a go and report back if i see anything interesting :-)
Thought i would provide update for those interested in my T4-2 SPARC (128thread/16core CPU) experiment...
After adding the -a sha256d the khash rate jumped right up :-)
Unfortunately over night not a single dime mined :-(

I looked into the hashing performance of a T4-2 a couple of years ago. It's nowhere near specialized hardware used by pro-miners. Perhaps it had a chance of mining something when it first came out around 2011 but not anymore.
What about the hashrate in other algorithms? Like RandomX for example.
Hello, I managed to compile cpuminer on a Solaris/SPARC server but I cannot understand if scrypt-n is supported.
If I launch this:
./minerd -a scrypt:1048576 -o stratum+tcp://vrm.poolium.win:3333 -x http://proxyinfos -u myuser.worker -p pass
I get no hash at all:
Thanks!
