# XMRigCC
[![Build status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/l8v7cuuy320a4tpd?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Bendr0id/xmrigcc)
### About XMRigCC
XMRigCC is a fork of [XMRig](https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig) which adds the ability to remote control your XMRig instances via a Webfrontend and REST api.
This fork is based on XMRig (2.4.1) and adds a "Command and Control" (C&C) server, a daemon to reload XMRig on config changes and modifications in XMRig to send the current status to the C&C Server.
The modified version can also handle commands like "update config", "start/stop mining" or "restart/shutdown" which can be send from the C&C-Server.

##### About XMRig
XMRig is high performance Monero (XMR) / Aeon CPU miner, with the official full Windows support.
Originally based on cpuminer-multi with heavy optimizations/rewrites and removing a lot of legacy code, since version 1.0.0 complete rewritten from scratch on C++.

### Basic example xmrigCCServer
```
xmrigCCServer --cc-port=3344 --cc-user=admin --cc-pass=pass --cc-access-token=SECRET_TOKEN_TO_ACCESS_CC_SERVER
```
### Options xmrigCCServer
```
--cc-user=USERNAME CC Server admin user
--cc-pass=PASSWORD CC Server admin pass

```
Also you can use configuration via config file, default **[config_cc.json](https://github.com/Bendr0id/xmrigCC/wiki/Config-XMRigCCServer)**. You can load multiple config files and combine it with command line options.
### Basic example xmrigDaemon
```
xmrigDaemon -o pool.minemonero.pro:5555 -u YOUR_WALLET -p x -k --cc-url=IP_OF_CC_SERVER:PORT --cc-access-token=SECRET_TOKEN_TO_ACCESS_CC_SERVER --cc-worker-id=OPTIONAL_WORKER_NAME
```
### Options xmrigDaemon
```
-a, --algo=ALGO cryptonight (default) or cryptonight-lite
-o, --url=URL URL of mining server
-O, --userpass=U:P username:password pair for mining server
-u, --user=USERNAME username for mining server
-p, --pass=PASSWORD password for mining server
-t, --threads=N number of miner threads
-v, --av=N algorithm variation, 0 auto select
-k, --keepalive send keepalived for prevent timeout (need pool support)
-r, --retries=N number of times to retry before switch to backup server (default: 5)
-R, --retry-pause=N time to pause between retries (default: 5)
--cpu-affinity set process affinity to CPU core(s), mask 0x3 for cores 0 and 1
--cpu-priority set process priority (0 idle, 2 normal to 5 highest)
--no-huge-pages disable huge pages support
--donate-level=N donate level, default 5% (5 minutes in 100 minutes)

```
Also you can use configuration via config file, default **[config.json](https://github.com/Bendr0id/xmrigCC/wiki/Config-XMRigDaemon)**. You can load multiple config files and combine it with command line options.
## Algorithm variations
* `--av=1` For CPUs with hardware AES.
* `--av=2` Lower power mode (double hash) of `1`.
* `--av=3` Software AES implementation.
* `--av=4` Lower power mode (double hash) of `3`.
## Common Issues
### XMRigMiner
* XMRigMiner is just the worker, it is not designed to work standalone. Please start **XMRigDaemon** instead.
### Windows only: DLL error on starting
* Make sure that you installed latest Visual C++ Redistributable für Visual Studio 2015. Can be downloaded here: [microsoft.com](https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/download/details.aspx?id=48145)
### Linux only: Background mode
* The `--background` option will only work properly for the XMRigServer. But there is a simple workaround for the XMRigDaemon process. Just append an `&` to the command and it will run smoothly in the background.
`./xmrigDaemon --config=my_config_cc.json &`
### HUGE PAGES unavailable (Windows)
* Run XMRig as Administrator.
* Since version 0.8.0 XMRig automatically enable SeLockMemoryPrivilege for current user, but reboot or sign out still required. [Manual instruction](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/ms190730.aspx).
### HUGE PAGES unavailable (Linux)
* Before starting XMRigDaemon set huge pages
`sudo sysctl -w vm.nr_hugepages=256`
## Other information
* No HTTP support, only stratum protocol support.
* No TLS support.
### CPU mining performance
* **Intel i7-7700** - 307 H/s (4 threads)
* **AMD Ryzen 7 1700X** - 560 H/s (8 threads)
Please note performance is highly dependent on system load. The numbers above are obtained on an idle system. Tasks heavily using a processor cache, such as video playback, can greatly degrade hashrate. Optimal number of threads depends on the size of the L3 cache of a processor, 1 thread requires 2 MB of cache.
### Maximum performance checklist
* Idle operating system.
* Do not exceed optimal thread count.
* Use modern CPUs with AES-NI instruction set.
* Try setup optimal cpu affinity.
* Enable fast memory (Large/Huge pages).
## Donations
* Default donation 5% (5 minutes in 100 minutes) can be reduced to 1% via command line option `--donate-level`.
* The donations will be automatically splitted (50/50) on my pool to xmrig's and my wallet.
