This thread includes discussion and work product for porting the kernel kexec facility as a module, and related tools (kexec-tools). The basis is the Eternity project and all git code repositories maintain the history from Eternity.
The project stems from the desire to overcome the OTA 2.3.5 locked bootloader/signed kernel limitation. More ideas will likely come during the work, but the starting point is clear.
As for the 'misspell' of Electrify (as Elecrify) -- my apologies to the good folks with that phone. Sheesh! One little typo -- forever it lives.
Status
kexec_load.ko:
The module was modified with the necessary information from the Photon kernel (Electrify to come). It currently loads, and (apparently) runs safely. However, until the kexec-tools (and relevant dependencies) work properly, the module will just sit there. There will surely be bugs as it moves, so don't load it unless you just want to see it load.
Source code: http://gitorious.org/xda/photon-kexec-mod
kexec-tools:
The tools currently build and will run on the phone. The point at which to load kexec, though, remains a work in progress. Kernel loads, atags read in, and initrd reads successfully. Reboot (kexec -e) success remains elusive.
Source code: https://gitorious.org/xda/photon-kexec-tools
Second Init:
Coming soon as we can get it reasonably safe ... check for updates for when code is checked in.

more to come... (hopefully)
I will keep this post up to date with any relevant new information as development progresses.
For background on getting to this point, please read this thread before posting. Our good friend nickman529 just couldn't stand the OTA mess any longer and asked for a solution. Thanks also goes to our man Indirect for not letting us get away early with a [paraphrasing] "nah -- can't work, right?" attitude. Many others also had many great ideas -- just read the other thread! We don't seek to exclude anyone here.
Here we go ...

Gopi at Motorola has put it on the software groups plate to clean up the builds to ensure they are complete. No ETA as of yet for the source release, but generally it takes them anywhere from a day to a week to respond to the requests.
Even though I was the one whom suggested kexec to begin with...I'll look into it when I get some free time.

Sorry, I want to wholeheartedly apologize. I do remember reading your post now, when I was scanning the message thread.
It was originally thought it could not work, as kexec is not enabled in our kernel. I had to point out that kexec *modules* exist, which is what makes this possible, when combined with the dynamic loading of modules from /system during the init process.
But your right, and should be noted in the OP, imho.

You look good in print -- re-read the original post. LOL. Just remember, though, all sorts of folks brought all sorts of good ideas, but I have to say you did push on Kexec, though many of us know it well -- thinking no way. Good on ya dude :highfive: -- sign up to develop if you can help.

Hey -- how comfortable are most folks with grabbing the Android and kernel sources, then setting up development? It's a chore, but if I need to add that to the original post (a pseudo tutorial link) I can do that. I'll create a new 'tools' repo on the xda Gitorious project and checkin my scripts regardless.
Just lemme know.
Happily sign up to dev. I'll take a look tonight after I get home in about an hour.

First issue for us is that the build of kexec-tools creates improper executables due to no crt0.o -- mean no _startup symbol exists. NDK apps have this a lot, I just haven't had time to resolve.

Bootloader on 2.3.5 is locked down pretty god, that's why tdhite is trying to get kexec to work for 2.3.5, it will allow us to insert a new kernel and 2init to run a custom rom on a locked bootloader.

Hmmm... Seems Electrify does not mount a sdcard at /sdcard? Maybe /mnt/sdcard is the place. Over time I need to know (don't have an Electrify so I dunno how the mounts go).
Thanks for the config, regardless. I'll be working on the kexec-mod build today.

Hey there Dragon, thanks for popping in and saying something so we don't have to answer the "what the heck is going on with cm9" question all day long.
Calling that second core thread "crap" is kind of mean. I'm sure Trafalgar worked hard on that. We were aware of the risks but traded a bit of life for performance.
But again thanks for the update.

His point is that there is no performance gain. The script just forces the second core to run at full capacity 100% of the time, instead of on-demand, which doesn't make a difference when you consider that on-demand just means it will activate the second core if the first core can't complete the task on its own.
Honestly I think the only difference that script will make is serious battery drain.
That said, I do appreciate the work trafalgar put into it. Always nice to see that there is still some hope for this phone's development

Dragon,
I feel ya on the schoolwork. I'm in the library, as I type, because my goal is walking across that stage in a month. Regards to your poll, I was thinking of voting for the first one, but my DX2 is running well with the current CM7. So I voted #2, so we can hopefully experience what we've been all missing out on. I cherish however long you stay with the DX2 because it's a long time until mid-2013....
Thanks for everything
Now that the bootloader has been bypassed, can we please get official CM9 and AOKP with stable releases and everything working? My friend has an SGS2 and its already running CM9. And I know for a fact that the RAZR is WAYYYY better than the SGS2. So let the ROM MANIA BEGIN! =D
I wish I can run CM9 but I am afraid that the bypass is still in so beta stage that it will take more time until we see cm and others...
Bypass is not working. It's very close though.
Only one CPU core works for now. An overclocked DX will beat your phone, and maybe that's OK.
Bypass is working right? I dont see why we cant have CM9 with only 1 core working, its fine! =D
n DX?

Exactly my point. Lets start working on custom ROMs with what we have right now. Kholk and mbm seemed to have worked pretty hard on this and it'll be a shame if we can't take advantage of it and start work on custom ROMs. Moto's gonna delay the stock ICS for us anyways.

Droid X. Not MAXX, lol.
I can overclock my old DX to 1425MHz v the Razr Maxx 1200MHz (stock).
Dual core isn't likely to work anytime soon; I cloned the source code and looked for an easy solution, but the kexec owners exhausted the options from what I can see.
A single-core 1200MHz ARM processor will still make a powerful device however. I'm with you: I'd like to play with a CM9 build. And MIUI. Even a single-core CM9 might beat a dual-core stock build.

You're clouding the discussion with facts and reasonable argument. Is that fair?
Personally, I don't complain here or elsewhere unless there's a good reason, like when someone calls a writeable/moddable "image" a "ROM" (which means Read-Only-Memory). Call it a package, or image - call it something new - but drop the term "ROM" in the toilet where it belongs.
Maybe that's grammar Nazi nonsense, but this is science. Science requires consistent and accurate communication, else it's just a chaotic mud-scramble by bald smelly apes with beer.
Mmm beer.

You are really a sarcastic person, aren't you? I was just stating the obvious. U don't have to criticize me for it.
Hey, guys, with all due respect for Flapp and what's going on, the dude's kernels are something else, so i'd like to throw a mirror up here for y'all. I haven't cleared out my goomanager folder in months, so here's kernel versions 2.1 through 3.0.2, simply for the sake of archiving, which i'm OCD about. I personally use 3.0 redux with CM10 nightlies, due to the fact that it has the smartassV2 governor, but your mileage may vary.
By clicking this, you're agreeing not to act a fool and make anyone mad (Mediafire link)
EDIT: Sources, courtesy of some_other_guy
I've always preferred straight CM when possible, with a custom kernel to be able to overclock and have BLN, probably because I spent so long on Nexus devices before my Note, and the only other kernel that's out there is King Kangers, which I don't like using.
So far only h0tw1r3 and flappjaxxx have made kernels I can use and enjoy, so I hope when the CM 10.1 nightlies roll around, these older kernels will support it.
thanks for these, I went and downloaded them for safe keeping on my desktop. I hope he'll come back. :fingers-crossed:
If anybody has the touchwiz ics version they can share. I would greatly appreciate it.

His post is correct that kernel source must be made available to all. But where flappjaxxx failed to be more specific is that if the kernel is to be distributed in it's compiled form the source must be made available as well. If the kernel is not being distributed publicly anywhere then of course said kernel may not even exist.
I will make it easy for everyone.

In that case ....I hope he is able to beat whatever demons are plaguing him.
His talents are undisputed, but if leaving means healing, I'm good with that ...as he fights for his peace ....g

His post is correct that kernel source must be made available to all. But where flappjaxxx failed to be more specific is that if the kernel is to be distributed in it's compiled form the source must be made available as well. If the kernel is not being distributed publicly anywhere then of course said kernel may not even exist.
I will make it easy for everyone.

Member has moved on from XDA. Lets just leave it at that, please. Thread Closed, time to move on, Thanks
This thread is for general discussion of the Sense 5 port currently in the works. Ramble on!
Now so I won't clutter the dev thread. You guys are amazing at what you do. We will have this months ahead of the official update I'm sure. Can't wait until it's all ironed out. Keep up the great job guys!

Sense 5 First Impressions
Q/A thread has been opened in the general section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39523082&nocache=1
I had the opportunity to try a barely functioning Sense 5 build. It was very fluid, but because hardly anything worked, I obviously didn't use it long. I have SVN set up already, and will be trying this ROM once it's "publicly" available. I'm a very patient person. I suppose that's a good thing right now. Lol
Glad you started this! I'm going to play around with the kernels some more and if you don't care I will just post my results here!

I'm just an interested user, like you. I created this because the devs in the development thread seemed to be getting flustered about non development chatter. You can post whatever you want in here, as far as I'm concerned.

Well if you have the svn set up you should check out latest. It is very very fluid, and the only things not working so far are
Gallery
3g
4g
ZOE (acts like its working, but will never complete the zoe)
Gallery <- again.
but everything else is working quite well at the moment wifi has solved most of my connection issues and i dont really need 3g while im on the go as its wayyyyy too slow in my area anyways, sure it will be nice to have, but its not a necessity, and everything else but those things are working.
ive made a number of calls, sent a few texts and am using email to send sms out to people at the moment.
what did you find wrong with the rom so i can check it out?

The ROM I tried was a private build provided to me, just for fun. Other than the UI, nothing worked. No camera, Wi-Fi, data, talk. In no way was it meant for any kind of public release. I also promised the person whom allowed me to use it, that I wouldn't share with anyone. I stand by my word. Sorry.

That would work. By all means, go ahead. I roam when I'm at home anyway. Data means next to nothing to me.

Also! thank you kerkedagain thats awesome and i will be trying it soon.
These devs have done some amazing work and need applauded for there effort on this! Within a few days they have a complete build with the only real issues are data, gallery fc, and Bluetooth, that's nothing short of amazing! I personally tried a port when the system dump became available and the things I was beating my head against the wall trying to figure out they fix in minutes! Needless to say once I saw this line up of devs working on a port I quit all attempts and am glad they can make it happen! Since I am new here (as a member) and can't try to help in the development thread yet, I at least want to say you guys are truely appreciated! Thanks

+1 to this.
Also for anyone trying this rom out in the future, it comes with blinkfeed as page one, and homescreen as page 2. Add a third page to boost smoothness of the entire rom. just noticed that.

Check out the @ocarinaz64 builds here : https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B02ZZ1GsXhMkQ1F6Z1hjR245c0U&usp=sharing
They aren't mine, and are slightly different of course, but to not make waves in the community I am linking to them because I support his work too.
I ran one of the latest builds before building my own ROM and everything and thought it was great. (used it to sync up to the repo actually lol)
Also I'm sure he'd appreciate any thanks you're willing to give. Everyone likes to know you are grateful for the work they do right?
Water Check.....
So this is to test the acceptance of this ROM BEFORE I upload it.
Please anyone who would like to see this ROM uploaded, say so here.
I have really crappy internet like I said and will not bother taking the time to upload this if nobody wants it in the first place, makes sense to me lol.
Interesting . . .
P.S. I think @ocarinaz64 has been posting updated layout builds in my CM11 thread.

I'm, not sure, I found it hard to find an updated CM11 here. I saw the one in Android Development but was way outdated.
So you know, I'm not trying to rip you off Captain_Throwback or anything like that here, i really thank you for your work, and having it available to build with.
Just trying to make something more easily available for everyone. And will include links to other versions like yours too if i have them, whatever make things easiest for everyone

LiquidSmokeX64 said:
First I have to say thanks to Captain Throwback for his commits otherwise this wouldn't be possible.
Ok so, this is basically just Cyanogenmod 11, built from source, with the commits for after the new partition layout, firmware upgrade.
I will be updating semi-regularly, maybe not nightly but at least once a week if I see people downloading it. If popularity increases, I will be more active on updates, and possible small changes such as additional apps, build.prop mods, and that kind of stuff.
Note: I am one man, not a team of developers. With a crappy internet connection. I don't know a whole lot but have some skills, but have no idea how to add/remove features and whatnot. That's not my area of expertise, but would like to have a few good people to fill in the gaps to make this a really nice ROM in the end. I will try to take requests, if I can do it, I will. This is for everyone in this community, so help me help you and we all will be happy.
This is an all-in-one ROM. I had issues flashing certain gapps packages, resulting in weird issues such as no SMS, so it seemed smarter to cut the hunt out for everyone else who just wants it to work great out of the box so to speak, thereby I already added the minimum gapps for the ROM to run smoothly. And everything seems fine as is.
Also, I have removed Gallery2.apk & Browser.apk, and they have been replaced by CMGallery.apk (aka GalleryNext), and Chrome.apk.
The gallery switch was just to stick to using as much CM code as possible, and Chrome was because I couldn't get the AOSP Browser to work for some weird reason yet to reveal itself to me. But it does make this ROM unique in its own way.
This should be easily upgradeable (dirty). I tried to make it to where you should not have to clean flash after the first install, but nobody's perfect.
DO NOT UPDATE OFFICIALLY AFTER THIS!!! CYANOGENMOD INC HAS NOT INCORPORATED THE NEW COMMITS TO THE BUILD YET!!!
I ONLY KEEP THE UPDATER TO CHECK FOR NOTABLE CHANGES WORTH MAKING THE NEXT BUILD FOR!!!
OK so here is the link to the ROM : (Not Uploaded yet)
If you support my work, please at the very least hit the thanks button.

Captain is right. I have been posting my builds with the new layout. They are easily found in my signature. The only thing that I did to it was applied Captain's commits for the new HBOOTS / partition layout. As such, I didn't think it merited a post under the "Original Development" section. I was keeping it under "Android Development", where Captain had it started.

You're welcome. Glad you enjoy the gallery change. I figured it was something unique i haven't seen in any other CM-11 so far for some odd reason.
