(Guide) Fglrx + AMD APP SDK + Pyrit + Cal++ for AMD Video Cards

Hi all,

This is an alternative to my other post where I explained how to install the OpenCL version of GPU support for pyrit / oclhashcat.

While OpenCL is very easy to install, it is no where near as powerful as Cal++. Below are some statistics for my Radeon HD 6970

Code:

Pyrit Benchmark OpenCL 50595.56 PMKs/s (graphics card produced 49359.6 PMKs/s) Cal++ 82695.02 PMKs/s (graphics card produced 81675.5 PMKs/s)

As can be seen, the Cal++ version is much faster.

At time of writing, the latest versions of all software is being installed on a 64bit Kali 1.0.9. This includes:

Code:

Pyrit v308 AMD APP SDK 2.9-1 Fglrx 14.4.2 Cal++ 0.90

1. Update and upgrade kali

Code:

apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade

2. Install headers

Code:

apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

3. Install fglrx

Code:

apt-get install fglrx-driver fglrx-atieventsd fglrx-control

4. Build xorg files

Code:

aticonfig --initial

5. Reboot

Code:

shutdown -r now

6. Install some dependencies needed for later

Code:

apt-get install libpcap-dev python-dev libssl-dev

7. Download AMD APP SDK from the link below (about 120MB). I'm on 64bit so I downloaded 2.9-1 for linux 64bit. Store it in your home folder. Extract it when finished.

Code:

http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/opencl-zone/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/ cd ~ tar xvf AMD-APP-SDK*.tar.bz2

8. Install AMD APP SDK and accept defaults

Code:

./AMD-APP-SDK*.sh

9. Update .bashrc to set the correct paths. Insert the block below somewhere near the top (use the blank space under # for examples on line 3)

Code:

cd ~ nano .bashrc

Add the following

Code:

# AMD APP SDK export AMDAPPSDKROOT=/opt/AMDAPPSDK-2.9-1 export AMDAPPSDKSAMPLESROOT=/opt/AMDAPPSDK-2.9-1/ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${AMDAPPSDKROOT}lib/x86_64:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} export ATISTREAMSDKROOT=$AMDAPPSDKROOT

10. Reboot again to update paths as its easiest.

Code:

shutdown -r now

11. Some required files are not provided by AMD APP SDK, so this step is to download them and put them where they need to go.

Code:

mkdir /opt/AMDAPPSDK-2.9-1/include/CAL cd /opt/AMDAPPSDK-2.9-1/include/CAL svn checkout https://github.com/clockfort/amd-app-sdk-fixes/trunk/include/CAL .

12. Install some more dependencies for cal++

Code:

apt-get install cmake libboost-all-dev

13. Download cal++ from here (about 90kb). Store it in your home folder.

Code:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/calpp/files/latest/download

14. Extract cal++ and go into the folder created.

Code:

cd ~ tar xvf cal*.tar.gz cd calpp-0.90

15. Nano the CMakeLists.txt file. Change line 18,19 and 20 to match those below. When changes are finished, save and exit.

Code:

FIND_LIBRARY( LIB_ATICALCL aticalcl PATHS "$ENV{ATISTREAMSDKROOT}" ) FIND_LIBRARY( LIB_ATICALRT aticalrt PATHS "$ENV{ATISTREAMSDKROOT}" ) FIND_PATH( LIB_ATICAL_INCLUDE NAMES cal.h calcl.h PATHS "$ENV{ATISTREAMSDKROOT}/include/CAL" )

16. Time to build and install cal++. Run the following from within the calpp-0.90 folder. Should be ~/calpp-0.90/. Will have warnings but it will finish.

Code:

cmake . make make install

17. Checkout and then build pyrit

Code:

cd ~ svn checkout http://pyrit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ pyrit_svn cd pyrit_svn/pyrit/ python setup.py build python setup.py install

18. Move into the cpyrit_calpp folder

Code:

cd ~/pyrit_svn/cpyrit_calpp/

19. Edit line 28 and then line 41 to match those shown below. Once changes are made, save and exit.

Code:

nano +28 setup.py Line 28 should read VERSION = '0.4.1-dev' Line 41 should read CALPP_INC_DIRS.append(os.path.join(CALPP_INC_DIR, 'include/CAL'))

20. Build and install cpyrit_calpp

Code:

python setup.py build python setup.py install

21. List pyrit cores and benchmark. You should see your cal++ device in pyrit list_cores

Code:

pyrit list_cores pyrit benchmark

Problems during CAL++ build

Hi,

sorry for hijacking this HOWTO but I am totally frustrated. Didn't count the fresh installation of my system today (appr. 20) to get pyrit and CAL++ working for my card R9 290X. After I found your guide I hoped that it will work but I failed during CAL++ build. Also tested with SDK 2.7 guided by blackmore but the same error in the end.

complete output on pastebin: http://pastebin.com/30v5k4mp

here just some output for faster reading.

If I would knew that installation is so complicated under linux or kali I would never changed my NVIDIA card to AMD. Since March 2014 I am trying to get my card working with pyrit.
I really really hope that you could help me with my error.

Can you tell me if this an driver error or does it come from CAL++? (see dmesg output last line)

Thanks in advance for reading.

Hi tr00n3r,

Does the command 'pyrit selftest' work?

I have the same card in my other computer. I'll install Kali tonight and try getting it to work.
2014-09-22
tr00n3r

Hi staticn0de,
thanks for your fast reply! no the selftest also not working --> Segmentation fault

for clarification - this is the card: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/...view,3803.html
CPU: i7 4770k
MB: Z87-G45 GAMING
RAM: 16 GB Corsair CMX16GX3M2A1600C11

thought it would be a good card for gpu cracking :)
I also tried also the 32 bit version but with blackmoreops' guide (SDK 2.7) same result. Tomorrow I will test the 32bit again but with your's

In blackmoreops' guide was the radeon blacklisted. I am not a Linux professional but is it necessary to do this?
2014-09-22
staticn0de

I have not been through blackmores guide lately so I don't know why Radeon would be blacklisted.

It's a reasonably cutting edge card, I'd try the 14.6 drivers in the Debian Sid repo rather than another install of amd app SDK.

Edit: also, if you didn't change from NVIDIA you would just being having as much fun installing CUDA ☺
2014-09-23
tr00n3r

ok, will try tomorrow.
one more thing: can you tell me how do I install the 14.6 drivers from the Debian Sid?
is that right to add these to /etc/apt/source.list ?

Code:

# There is no security, volatile or backports repo for unstable. # Unstable Sid #deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free # Unstable Sources #deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free

or should I directly download the drivers from AMD?

I thought it would be a good idea to change to AMD because of performance. NVIDIA GTX780 gives me ~64500 PMKs/s and that took too long for me as I saw the AMD benchs (7970+7990) :) Driver and CUDA were not the problem.
2014-09-23

Just add this and run apt-get update. After you install the drivers (step 3.) remove the line and run apt-get update again.

CAL++ failed with error

I have tried with the driver from SID and AMDAPPSDK-2.9-1 (fresh 64bit installation) only did upgrade, added sid for driver, installed driver, removed sid and followed your guide

I just finished installing Kali on my desktop so I'm working on it now. I'll let you know how I go.

Good news and bad news.

You can get past that error by:

nano /usr/include/boost/cstdint.hpp

and then find

Code:

typedef ::boost::long_long_type intmax_t; typedef ::boost::ulong_long_type uintmax_t; typedef ::boost::long_long_type int64_t; typedef ::boost::long_long_type int_least64_t; typedef ::boost::long_long_type int_fast64_t; typedef ::boost::ulong_long_type uint64_t; typedef ::boost::ulong_long_type uint_least64_t; typedef ::boost::ulong_long_type uint_fast64_t;

and replace with

Code:

typedef ::boost::long_long_type intmax_t; typedef ::boost::ulong_long_type uintmax_t; typedef long int int64_t; typedef ::boost::long_long_type int_least64_t; typedef ::boost::long_long_type int_fast64_t; typedef long unsigned int uint64_t; typedef ::boost::ulong_long_type uint_least64_t; typedef ::boost::ulong_long_type uint_fast64_t;

Bad news is there is still a segmentation fault.

Working on that...

thank you so much for helping me!!!!!!

yeah, I found this solution 5 min ago in blackmoreops' guide and tested --> segmentation fault :)
another question: did you update the gcc version during driver installation in SID from GNU 4.7.2 to GNU 4.7.4 because I did - was this a good idea?

****************EDIT****************
tested without updating libc6 - driver install will fail

I didn't get it to work tonight. I'll keep at it tomorrow. Others have had success without using latest drivers.

Tomorrow I'll try Kali 1.0.9 with drivers from the normal repo and amd app SDK. The difference is, I'll replace all instances of AMD-APP-SDK-v2.9-1 with AMDAPP from that below from a post on blackmoreops

OPENCL_INC_DIRS = ['/opt/AMDAPP/include/']
OPENCL_LIB_DIRS = ['/opt/AMDAPP/lib/x86_64/']

hey guys i followed the tutorial exactly but got the following error:

root@kali:~# pyrit list_cores
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cal::Error'
what(): Operational error
Aborted

just to mention that i tried the OPENCL before that and it worked with pyrit!!

any ideas?

what card are you using?

pleae show lspci --nnkv (for card/vga section)
and
dmesg | tail when errors happens.

Hey mate,

I could not get it working. I did some looking around and we are not alone with the seg faults on a 290X.

A lot of users of related software (bionic ect) have the same problems.

ATI released 14.9 today. I'll give it a go with that.

or
sometimes i don't konw how i reinstalled pyrit and pyrit works but without cal++ just like the original version.

can you help me with my best wishes!

Are there any news about R9 290/290X ? Im still working on Pyrit OpenCL, cause my Pyrit Calpp crashes.

Is there anyone who knows why does CAL++ doesn't work with R290/290X ? Or how make it work ? It would be nice to get 40% more power in cracking wpa2.

Somebody here got pyrit with r290 ? What benchmark score do You have?
2015-02-16
staticn0de

Bad news,

http://sourceforge.net/p/calpp/bugs/6/

Short answer is amd dropped support in newer hardware.

It is unlikely anyone will ever get it working on the cutting edge cards.
2015-02-16
buggie

ok thanks for the response... So i guess that its better to use 7970 instead of R9 290/290x cause it gets more PMKs on CAL++, it is cheaper and consumes less electricity.
2015-02-16
buggie

OK, I've tested this today, R9 290 + R7970 in OpenCL = ~150k PMKs

then i run only R7970 with CAL++ and it was ~130k PMKs.

R9 is going for sell to setup 3x7970.

Thanks for posting the comparison, I know I (and I'm sure others) appreciate it.

The 7970 may be the current best card for cal++

#3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 672.5 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)
#4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 678.6 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)

unfortunately after activation crossfire in ccc the result was strange :confused:

Computed 114017.44 PMKs/s total.
#1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 56525.5 PMKs/s (RTT 1.7)
#2: 'CAL++ Device #2 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 56776.0 PMKs/s (RTT 1.7)
#3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 757.2 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)
#4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 756.1 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)

the second card is also R7970
Must i do something additional to get the full Speed?

Performance Improvement

After execution of following Steps:

1. aticonfig --adapter=all –initial
2. restarting X-Server
3. export DISPLAY=:0

i got

Computed 200949.09 PMKs/s total.
#1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 117284.7 PMKs/s (RTT 1.1)
#2: 'CAL++ Device #2 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 84111.8 PMKs/s (RTT 1.2)
#3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 697.1 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)
#4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 700.9 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)

much better :)

I tried also to change "ncpus -= 1" to "ncpus -= 2" and "ncpus -= 4" under /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/cpyrit.py
but the result still the same.

It must be the way to get nearly the same PMKs/s with second HD7970.
Any ideas?
2015-04-15
staticn0de

Hey guys,

Sorry I have not replied sooner. Someone was trying to access my account here on the forums and they constantly triggered the incorrect login screen, effectively locking us both out.

Seems like you sorted it all out without me anyway! I had the same situation with my dual HD6970. One card was noticeably faster than the other. I couldn't find a way around it.

I went and wrote it off as bus limitations or CPU or some other nonsense (I didn't really know) but others, including those using bionic had the same situation.

Did you need to put export DISPLAY=:0 in again after a restart? that isn't a persistant setting. If you do, just add it to ~/.bashrc
2015-04-16

Hd7990

Hallo,

indeed that isn't a persistant setting. My whole system is under construction and raw. :) But at the end ~/.bashrc will be set.

By the way, i got a chance to test one HD7990. Here is the result (after DISPLAY=:0):

Computed 195779.45 PMKs/s total.
#1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 111024.9 PMKs/s (RTT 1.1)
#2: 'CAL++ Device #2 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 84497.1 PMKs/s (RTT 1.1)
#3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 695.3 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)
#4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 701.9 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)

The same problem.
Interesting is, how much will produce the third GPU? :rolleyes:
Without DISPLAY=:0 each chip perform 50.000-60.000 PMks/s

Please let me know staticn0de if you find any way to boost the results on second GPU.

Hi staticn0de,

thanks for the excellent guide. Everything works, and I'm on a fresh install of kali 1.1.0a.

Only one issue, I can't run pyrit in any of the terminals without first logging into gnome. This also means I can't run pyrit through SSH without first logging into the GUI on the host. Perhaps the drivers haven't loaded yet?
Any insight would be a great help!

Hi there,

I've been working on this a bit tonight and have some good news and some bad news.

The good news is, you can get second card to be just about the same speed as the first! See below for my initial setup as per the guide before I made changes.

Code:

#1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD CAYMAN'': 81018.0 PMKs/s (RTT 1.2) #2: 'CAL++ Device #2 'AMD CAYMAN'': 47461.8 PMKs/s (RTT 1.5) #3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 699.7 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0) #4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 668.8 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0) #5: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 680.9 PMKs/s (RTT 2.9) #6: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 730.4 PMKs/s (RTT 2.9) #7: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 698.4 PMKs/s (RTT 2.9) #8: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 655.1 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)

My results after changes

Code:

Computed 156874.93 PMKs/s total. #1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD CAYMAN'': 81071.2 PMKs/s (RTT 1.2) #2: 'CAL++ Device #2 'AMD CAYMAN'': 80010.4 PMKs/s (RTT 1.2) #3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 1196.1 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0) #4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 1204.6 PMKs/s (RTT 2.9)

The bad news is, the settings we are changing are setup specific. What I chose through trial and error may not lead to the same result for you. I'll include a few combinations I tried to give you an idea.

1. For the fixing, the most important change I made is turning off hyperthreading. This gave me a massive increase. As it turns out, the CPU was the bottleneck after all.

Second, we have some values we can modify. Each time we chage them, we have to re-build and reinstall that component (not as hard as it sounds)

2. Changing the buffer size

If you followed the guide, this should work

Code:

nano +52 /root/pyrit_svn/cpyrit_calpp/_cpyrit_calpp.cpp change the value between 1 and 4. I had the best performance on 2 and the worst on 1.

3. Rebuilding the cal module for pyrit

Code:

You need this step after each buffer size change root@kali ~/pyrit_svn/cpyrit_calpp$ python setup.py build root@kali ~/pyrit_svn/cpyrit_calpp$ python setup.py install

4. Modify CAL itself. This setting is either on, or it's off. I had the best speeds with it on.

Code:

nano +45 /root/calpp-0.90/include/cal/cal.hpp Change the line by removing the leading '//' so it looks like this #define __CAL_USE_NON_BLOCKING_WAIT 1

5. Rebuild call++

Code:

cd /root/calpp-0.90/ cmake . make make install

Give pyrit benchmark a go and let me know. The result I had after I made this changes. Remember, turning off hyperthreading in the bios was the biggest speed boost.

Best results for me:
Buffer set 2
HT off
cal.hpp removed slashes

Same as before, but buffer on 1

Code:

buffer set to 1 Running benchmark (121551.8 PMKs/s)... \ Computed 121551.82 PMKs/s total. #1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD CAYMAN'': 65645.1 PMKs/s (RTT 1.1) #2: 'CAL++ Device #2 'AMD CAYMAN'': 57752.2 PMKs/s (RTT 1.7) #3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 1227.4 PMKs/s (RTT 2.9) #4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2/AES)': 1227.7 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0) root@kali-corsair:~/pyrit_svn/pyrit#

Thanks statikn0de,

my best result with HD 7990 was:

Computed 214303.81 PMKs/s total.
#1: 'CAL++ Device #1 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 122460.0 PMKs/s (RTT 1.1)
#2: 'CAL++ Device #2 'AMD GPU DEVICE'': 91421.1 PMKs/s (RTT 1.1)
#3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 712.9 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)
#4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 716.4 PMKs/s (RTT 3.0)

Buffer set 3
cal.hpp with slashes
HT was not necessary to disable with my Intel i5 750. Maybe I upgrade a system later to i7, but not now ;)

With your best setting:
Buffer set 2
cal.hpp removed slashes

It was only

Hi,
i tried to play with bios settings, especially CPU settings without success.
I don't think that for the similar boosting i need i7 with Hyperthreading (and this Hyperthreading must be deactivated). :rolleyes:
Maybe my Motherboard ( Asus P7P55D LE ) is to old. :confused:
Which one CPU do you have staticn0de?
