How can I compile the OpenCL module for Pyrit?

  • 772

I want to use my GPU with Pyrit. I use Ubuntu 11.10, ATI Radeon HD 68xx and i7 2600K.

Step done:

  • Install latest ATI driver from manufacturer website
  • Install AMD APP SDK

When I run benchmark I get:

~$ pyrit benchmark
Pyrit 0.4.0 (C) 2008-2011 Lukas Lueg http://pyrit.googlecode.com

  • How to make sure that AMD APP SDK is correctly installed?

  • How to configure Pyrit to use OpenCL and my GPU?

EDIT:

Uninstalled Pyrit and re-installed AMD APP SDK. When trying to compile OpenCL support module for Pyrit I get this error:

$ sudo python setup.py build 
The headers required to build the OpenCL-kernel were not found. Trying to continue anyway...

    This is the way I've finaly done it on Ubuntu Server 11.04

    Install a minimal X11 environment:

    aptitude install xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-input-evdev xserver-xorg-video-ati lightdm unity-greeter openbox

    Then, edit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf and add the following (replacing YOUR_USER_NAME with the user you will be running hashcat as):

    [SeatDefaults]
greeter-session=unity-greeter
user-session=openbox
autologin-user=YOUR_USER_NAME
autologin-user-timeout=0

    Then add your username to the nopasswdlogin group:

    usermod -a -G nopasswdlogin $USERNAME

    Get build dependencies for Catalyst:

    aptitude build-dep fglrx

    Download and install Catalyst 12.8:

    wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/amd-driver-installer-12-8-x86.x86_64.zip
unzip amd-driver-installer-12-8-x86.x86_64.zip
sh amd-driver-installer-8.982-x86.x86_64.run --uninstall=force
sh amd-driver-installer-8.982-x86.x86_64.run

    Generate a new xorg.conf:

    rm -f /etc/X11/xorg.conf*
amdconfig --adapter=all --initial

    Make sure the DISPLAY env var is set:

    echo 'export DISPLAY=:0' >>~/.bashrc

    Reboot, and you should be all set.

  2. I never used Pyrit or tried to compile, however it seems like its config script (setup.py) cannot find OpenCL header files. You should look something like paths that are necessary to configure in such script. OpenCL headers for your ATI VGA will probably be installed in some subfoler of a driver installation.

    EDIT:

    Here is a part of this script, that sets the OpenCL.h path. Find this file on your PC, and experiment a little, which is chosen, and try to change it and see if that works.

    OPENCL_INC_DIRS = []
OPENCL_LIB_DIRS = []
EXTRA_LINK_ARGS = []
LIBRARIES = ['crypto', 'z']
if sys.platform == 'darwin':
    # Use the built-in framework on MacOS
    EXTRA_LINK_ARGS.extend(('-framework', 'OpenCL'))
    OPENCL_INC_DIRS.append('/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenCL.framework/Headers')
else:
    LIBRARIES.append('OpenCL')
    try:
        if os.path.exists(os.environ['ATISTREAMSDKROOT']):
            OPENCL_INC_DIRS.append(os.path.join(os.environ['ATISTREAMSDKROOT'], 'include'))
            for path in ('lib/x86_64','lib/x86'):
                if os.path.exists(os.path.join(os.environ['ATISTREAMSDKROOT'], path)):
                    OPENCL_LIB_DIRS.append(os.path.join(os.environ['ATISTREAMSDKROOT'], path))
                    break
    except:
        pass
    for path in ('/usr/local/opencl/OpenCL/common/inc', \
                '/opt/opencl/OpenCL/common/inc', \
                '/usr/local/opencl/include', \
                '/usr/local/cuda/include'):
        if os.path.exists(path):
            OPENCL_INC_DIRS.append(path)
            break
    else:
        print >>sys.stderr, "The headers required to build the OpenCL-kernel " \
                            "were not found. Trying to continue anyway..."

# Get exact version-string from svn
try:
    svn_info = subprocess.Popen(('svn', 'info'), \
                                stdout=subprocess.PIPE).stdout.read()
    VERSION += ' (svn r%i)' % \
                int(re.compile('Revision: ([0-9]*)').findall(svn_info)[0])
except:
    pass
