The same SHA-512 function (and shift stuff etc.) works fine in your's and Myrice's formats, I just changed it to work directly on the input buffer, and skip using a context struct. I have tried changing the swaps and bitselect stuff to the generic code the nvidias use, but it doesn't change a thing.
Also, I change the hash loops to use uint throughout (getting rid of lots of shifting) but it neither affected speed nor outcome - it still fails (and still passes on other GPUs).
Given it works fine on all other systems I know of (well except Apple but that is clearly a driver problem too), I regard this a driver bug and I will just ignore it for now.
Thanks,
