Windows GBT crashes have been reported with this release as well.
The root cause has been found and a new release is forthcoming.

Reapply selected changes from v3.21.3.
#392 #379 #389 Fixed misaligned address segfault solo mining.
#392 Fixed conditional mining.
#392 Fixed cpu affinity on Ryzen CPUs using Windows binaries,
Windows binaries no longer support CPU groups,
Windows binaries support CPUs with up to 64 threads.

cpuminer-opt-3.21.2

Faster SALSA SIMD shuffle for yespower, yescrypt & scryptn2.
Fixed a couple of compiler warnings with gcc-12.

cpuminer-opt-3.21.1

Fixed a segfault in some obsolete algos.
Small optimizations to Hamsi & Shabal AVX2 & AVX512.

cpuminer-opt-3.21.0

Added minotaurx algo for stratum only.
Blake256 & sha256 prehash optimised to ignore zero-padded data for AVX2 & AVX512.
Other small improvements.

cpuminer-opt-3.20.3

Faster c11 algo: AVX512 6%, AVX2 4%, AVX2+VAES 15%.
Faster AVX2+VAES for anime 14%, hmq1725 6%.
Small optimizations to Luffa AVX2 & AVX512.

cpuminer-opt-3.20.2

Bit rotation optimizations to Blake256, Blake512, Blake2b, Blake2s & Lyra2-blake2b for SSE2 & AVX2.
Removed old unused yescrypt library and other unused code.

cpuminer-opt-3.20.1

sph_blake2b optimized 1-way SSSE3 & AVX2.
Removed duplicate Blake2b used by Power2b algo, will now use optimized sph_blake2b.
Removed imprecise hash & target display from rejected share log.
Share and target difficulty is now displayed only for low diificulty shares.
Updated configure.ac to check for AVX512 asm support.
Small optimization to Lyra2 SSE2.

cpuminer-opt-3.20.0

#375 Fixed segfault in algos using Groestl VAES due to use of uninitialized data.

cpuminer-opt-3.19.9

More Blake256, Blake512, Luffa & Cubehash prehash optimizations.
Relaxed some excessively strict data alignment that was negatively affecting performance.

cpuminer-opt-3.19.8

#370 "stratum+ssl", in addition to "stratum+tcps", is now recognized as a valid url protocol specifier for requesting a secure stratum connection.
The full url, including the protocol, is now displayed in the stratum connect log and the periodic summary log.
Small optimizations to Cubehash, AVX2 & AVX512.
Byte order and prehash optimizations for blake256 & blake512, AVX2 & AVX512.
