eliezedeck commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug Abort trap: 6 is raised.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Run with the following command (or any othercurrent Ethash mining command)
  2. This is for NiceHash
./ethminer --cl-nobin -G -P stratum2+tcp://3PAPuc8JYXYNZxX9so2qbCw55TRx5gkSLv.macOS@daggerhashimoto.eu-west.nicehash.com:3353 --report-hr
  1. Result is:
./ethminer --cl-nobin -G -P stratum2+tcp://3PAPuc8JYXYNZxX9so2qbCw55TRx5gkSLv.macOS@daggerhashimoto.eu-west.nicehash.com:3353 --report-hr

Same to me, Root Cause not known ;-/.

eliezedeck commented 3 years ago

I've tried many repos based on https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer and all of them crashed this way apparently.

bruno-berchielli commented 3 years ago

Hi @eliezedeck

This happens only with Nicehash? Or is this the same for every provider?

I'm about to upgrade my hackintosh GPU and would like if I will be able to mine with it.

@bruno-berchielli well, I don't clearly remember but I think I tried another one and it did the same thing. It's the OpenCL part which is crashing, so it will crash regardless of the pool.

here is the route cause that I do not want to solve

The issue is " / 2" on buffers sizes... but it cannot be changed just like that... it affects computation, and I gave up. I prefer to use Ubuntu, where the PC is both quiet and fast (OpenCL v2.x), not where it is blocked at macOS (OpenCL v1.2). I will not solve this because I tried hard, and it is too complicated for me... and on Ubuntu, in dual boot, it has just works! ;-).
