Hashcat compile and run on Apple M1
#1
Hi!

Could you please advice how to compile and run hashcat on apple m1 chip system? I'm interested to check hashcat performance on m1 CPU but my hashcat didn't enumerate any CPUs while using I key, just GPU listed.

If I'm not mistaken hashcat won't detect the CPU unless there are no GPUs found, and you'll need to have OpenCL support for the CPU. 

Does your M1 have that in OSX?

Hi, it runs but not fantastically great..once compiled you can run it with:
./hashcat.bin -D1,2 —force

Then it will go just fine.
 You can also add -T8 to force the threading to give it a little bit of performance increase.
