Any hashcat user with AMD cards on macOS wanted for troubleshooting
#1
Unfortunately, the developer team has no such hardware (new Apple iMac or iMac pro or any new high-end macbook with AMD cards) to test some problems with macOS (we believe only latest version and/or new AMD driver).

We get complains about not being able to compile latest hashcat with error:
Code:
fatal error: 'inc_vendor.h' file not found
#include "inc_vendor.h"
              ^

see https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat/issue...-625173962 and other reports here:
https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat/searc...ype=Issues

It would be nice if we could get some help from hashcat users that have such a hardware to test and want to play around a little bit with the changes/code etc:
1. does this happen only with a specific macOS/driver version
2. when was this introduced ? already available with release versions , which commit introduced this error: https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat/commits
3. why does it happen ? any clue about why the file can't be found ? maybe related to some paths etc (we already have some other problems with compiler include problems with AMD/ROCm using paths with -I ).
etc etc etc

it would be great if somebody could play around a little bit with latest git code (master branch) and try also older commits or versions of hashcat to see when this was introduced and if it even has something to do with hashcat or is ... as very often .. just a driver problem.

Our current educated guess is that it is a specific new AMD include problem (using the JiT compilers -I include paths) and that this problem is related to some (new) AMD driver version etc...

Thank you very much

It is needless to say, that first you need to be able to reproduce/see this "file not found" error, otherwise you might not be able to help much... but any feedback (even saying "it works with AMD card with macOS version XYZ") could help to pinpoint it

(you could of course contact us here below, or via PM, or on #hashcat IRC, freendode etc)
