every jb and GB rom
Everything seems to be stable and working on the first version for me..
Just one thing and it's not a bug
You know on the YairPatch kernel logo there seems to be a bit of an overlapping of the kernel version at the bottom.
No big deal but would look much better if it could be sorted out.

yeah i know but for 0.2 and 0.3 i'm using nAa ramdisk so thus "bug" is gone
Sorry for this question but... can you try to make something for poor 2.3 users? If you would find some time to fix bluetooth problems it'll be great.

Why don't you upgrade to 4.1.2? Everything works and the speed is better in my opinion.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reflashed to 3rd kernel. I can really feel a speed difference. Really good job Yair!
@up: maybe it is but it's unusable for me: most of time I'm using my phone as my mp3 player and everybody knows how music on 4.1 is annoying :/

i honestly flashed a couple of times using different versions of flashtool. thought something was wrong lol.
on topic: i tried checking yair's site, as well as the op, and i can't seem to find the differences between 02 and 03 kernel. i've already tried both, and 03 seems to be much smoother.

That made me laugh. Thank you!
The differences are only in the compile flag optimisations. But yes, 03 is very smooth.

Little bit off-topic, but I remember when the minicm10 came out with the .32 kernel, you was happy with the incredible performance. And after a longer test period you always went back to froyopro or minicm7 due the better performance...
Okay, go back to the thread.
@cascabel: you can't find the differences between the o2 and o3 versions of the kernels because the two kernels source code is same, nothing different. The compiler settings is invisible, this is not add or remove features, the difference is only the increased/decreased performance/stability.
If you interested what is the difference and how to work the code optimization in gcc, use google and you can find lot of information about how to work the o2 and o3 optimization, about the strict-aliasing and tons of other optimization flags.
@afi1982: can you post the gcc flags what you used? Or simple changed to -O3 without additional flags? (now playing with the .32 code to build a gb only kernel).

Development Goals:
- stability
- energy savings due to more efficient algorithms (whether theoretical or not is unimportant)
- strictly no overclocking unless approved by the manufacturer or my source base integrates it (also, even if my source base integrates it, expect no support for it)
- no undervolting as well unless the manufacturer approves it since it's relatively pointless IMHO...
- all improvements should require MINIMAL user interaction (e.g. you don't need to do anything except flash the kernel or at the very least use SetCPU or the like to set fixed options)
- stability
*I've not uploaded versions for 4.2.1 stock.
**This section contains the STABLE kernels (i.e. tested to be stable for at least a day or two with no problems) for TEST kernels, proceed to the 3rd post.

It's already done in the TEST kernel section. I haven't tested the kexec functionality if it works though. I just followed the instructions and integrated the patch. Test if you know what you're doing.

Yesterday i got my new N7 and installed directly ur kernel.
As u wrote, i have experienced a SoD yesterday while using BFQ, with CFQ none until now (might check later).
If you need some kind of last_kmsg for debugging just tell me (if your kernel has the dmesg/kmsg active)
PS: using latest beta with PA 4.2.1 Beta9

Build compiled from our CM branch sources with various optimizations / kernel features
Final build for 4.4.4 released (20th April 2015)
Many of the new features can be configured by kernel tools like Synapse. Install synapse app from market and UKM zip from downloads section.
We have moved on to Lollipop thread.
V7 [Changelog]
KERNEL:
- New hotplugs - ALUCARD, MSM
- MSM_limiter
- Fix synapse stuff - GPU etc..
- Governor tweaks
ROM
- Latest CM 11 sources.
- Fix chrome issues
- Fix button lighting-up when screen is off
Recommeded: Alucard governor with Alucard hotplug.
This is my synapse profile: http://goo.gl/3EbMUS
Note: For V6 and above (and specially for governors like zzmoove / alucard) , using Trickster/Synapse:
1. Disable MP-Decision
2. Enable intelli-plug
3. Enable intelli-thermal
4. And set to restore kernel settings on boot.
Old changelogs
V6 [Changelog]
- ROM sources updated to 20th November.
- Switch from O3 to Ofast [Even more compiler optimizations] and Re-enable Justarchi compiler optimizations [We have given up on exfat]
- GPU should now idle to 27MHz [instead of earlier 200Mhz]
- GPU overclocked to 535Mhz [earlier 500Mhz]
- CPU should now idle to 268Mhz (instead of earlier 300Mhz)
- Port few of my favorite governors from Oneplus one kernel these days - zzmoove and alucard: Both have been awesome for me (credits go to Oneplus one kernel developers - @Lord Boeffla, @ZaneZam, @alucard_24) - I will eventually start removing some of the older CPU governors. Looks like we have lots of them now.
- Various kernel patches - arch power, cpu boost, gentle fair sleepers, software crc is off
- Upgrade BFQ scheduler to BFQ-v7r6
V5.1 [Changelog]
- Newer sources from 20141107
- fsync is now disabled (Defers file writes but risk of data loss with crashes etc. Can be enabled in trickster)
- tweak intelliactive (hispeed freq was 2457, calm it down to 1985)
- voltage tweaks for speed 1 pvs 2
- default IO schd BFQ
- Frequency throttle limit increased slightly (Thermal policies can now be controlled through Trickster)
V5 [Changelog]
- Newer sources from 20141102 and use SaberMOD Toolchain, GCC 4.8.2 for kernel as well as entire build.
- Add a new hotplug engine - IntelliPlug (developed and used in famous Franco's Kernel) - I recommend to use this one, and switch off MP-Decision. (Enable in Trickster)
- Add a new thermal engine - Intellithermal (again from Franco) - Recommend to use this one. (Enable in Trickster)
- Add USB Fast charge (Enable in Trickster)
- Add another performance centric governor - SmartMAX (Combines features of OnDemand and SmartASSv2), Use it as gaming driver.
- Tweak intelliactive - Recommend to use this as default (Interactive is battery friendly but a bit laggy)
- Add powersuspend
- Reduce VM Swappiness to 10 (We have enough RAM)
- Some GPU tweaks
Other features
- CPU Overclocks of upto - 2457Mhz
- GPU overclocks of upto - 500Mhz
- Voltage control (UV)
- Additional CPU governors - Intelliactive, Intellidemand, InteractiveX
- Additional IO Schedulers - SIO, FIOPS, ZEN, VR
- Tweaked thermal policies (aggressive by default)
- Lower GPU clocks by default
- Reduced logging
- Net tweaks - Lock initial TCP window size to 64k
- FS tweaks disable atime and diratime
- Some mixer_paths patches (for higher audio) and button light fixes (to not glow on screen touch)
- Compiler optimizations

excellent!
I'll try it later.
I always flash PurePerformances™X mod after every nightlie and it feels somewhat faster after it. I did flashed it on all my devices.
Maybe you can insert it in your future builds.
Keep them coming !
LE: mod link fixed
Thanks for this... Will give it a shot!
For anyone wanting to try this.. So far so good here. Hasn't been running long enough to make any major comparisons yet. Clean flashed, so not sure about dirty flashing.
I installed it over nightly and it runs pretty well but the playstore icons bug is pretty bad.
For now I moved on to the next nightly but if you can fix that bug I will surely flash it again.

Should be fixed with Linaro 4.9 (thats next). Trying out a few more optimizations for next build (expect to post one on weekend).

Don't pay attention to benchmarks....
If you want to meet or beat stock, just turn off thermal throttling, enable all 4 cores and set performance as the governor. Make it a fair comparison...
Finally a linaro build!! Keep up the great work! Could you modify the kernel too? Overclock cpu and gpu would be awesome...

I suppose we are talking about /etc/thermal-engine-8974.conf, /etc/thermal-engine.conf (symlinked to thermal-engine-8960.conf) and /etc/thermald.conf (symlinked to thermal-8960.conf) on cm builds. They seem to be using different set of values from stock.
Can't we not use these values/files directly-from/similar-to stock builds ? As the thermal engine libs and binaries we are directly picking from stocks ?
Is stock too aggressive or CM too defensive ?
Also noticed that these linked files are broken as well. (no thermal-engine-8960.conf and thermal-8960.conf). Some build script issues ?

I wasn't suggesting that you turn that off permanently, that's just what the stock ROM is most likely (automatically) doing when you run a benchmark. That's how you get a higher score, not how you have a better ROM...
My point being, don't worry about whether or not the scores are better, worry about the whole experience being better (which is very much is). On a phone of mine, CM was way more performant even though it scored less than half of stock's Quadrant score.

I agree benchmarks are just academic (and just nice-to-have). I was just suggesting that we could use same thermal configuration files as found in stock builds. Are these even the files that would affect benchmarks (thermal-engine*.conf and thermald*.conf) ? Are you suggesting that stock build just shuts off any kind of throttling as soon as it detects benchmark tests ? I thought only some devices did that and they got caught.
I am building with linaro 4.9 and have swapped out those conf files from stock. Lets see how it goes.

Unfortunately, Linaro 4.9 is breaking stuff. Getting into a bootloop n all. Need more time.

Been struggling with some adreno crashes on boot when using 4.9 toolchain. Earlier I thought it's the compiler optimizations not playing well with 4.9. But I run into same without any customizations -
Here's the logcat if anyone wants to take a look.
http://pastebin.com/eS0eHvzL
If I can't get around these in a day or two, we'll come back to 4.8 and carry on with other optimizations. I read somewhere the gibberish icons are fixed on newer play store.

Its probably the adreno libs built using older tool chains.

Just posted another build with today's sources with both CPU and GPU overclocks. Had to go back to older 4.8 toolchain. The overclocks are running surprisingly stable on device.
The playstore icons issue is still not resolved. Its being discussed here. However, I am not too worried by it.
About:
I started this kernel mainly for myself, but decided to share it with you.
I would like to keep this kernel 'minimal' but I'm open to suggestions or ideas. With minimal I mean mostly improvements to the source, no instable stuff and no bloated options.
My kernel doesn't need any additional apps to configure it, all values are set by the ramdisk. Only if you want to customize stuff you might use an app.

I know that this doesn't technically works for a minimal kernel but in the lollipop kernel they had added 500+ comits to improve battery maybe you could port some over
Nice work...
Some favorit settings?

I try to configure my kernel so that you don't need to customize anything, so impulse with tripndroid (default) is pretty good.

thank you for sharing your kernel
your kernel supports color changes and increased audio kernel adjutor?

Did anyone have a feedback?
Oh new kernel have to try it now!!
i have to say this kernels performance is really good.default settings performance is awesome.buttery smooth.about battery life have to test.thanks for this kernel dude.keep up the good work
I lost root after flash the kernel. Can I re-flash SuperSU?
UPDATE: reflash superSU and sharpening mod to get root again.
I forgot sharpening mod and got security error

no, it doesn't
Add kcal and a sound engine. Also I would reccommend you upload to AFH. Google drive is slow for me. Also once many start downloading the gdrive link might not work later on.
Edit: Flashed it running smoothly. No issues at all (Y)
Flashed it. It's fast, but my phone has insomnia and does not want to sleep.
Maybe due to this, it's a bit hot and battery hungry.
Will try to wipe caches again and report back.
Thanks!
As suggestions, I'd like to have another hotplug (msm) manager and Lionheart governor for the CPU, and maybe reduce gpu minimum speed to 27mhz.
congratulations on this magnificent kernel, could incorporate some overclock CPU and GPU, thanks
Enviado desde mi LG-D855 mediante Tapatalk
Im using this kernel for a day and so far everything is working fine and smooth, IMO maybe is better to keep kernel minimalistick and clean but wery well optimized or make 2 versions 1 tweaked with bunch of sheluders and governors and 1 simple and clean. Either way great job on this.
thanks for the update, im falling in love with this kernel.
I love this kernel too! Its more fluid than stock and battery seems same. Definetely you guys must give a shot.
Thank you for this awesome kernel! Performance is amazing with it and battery life too!
I've a problem, when i flash this kernel over solidkernel only the minimum core chosen is MSM_mpdecision is activated. If i set the minimum to 1, only one core is activated...

This kernel is more faster than artx and light kernels, I am of those who cannot see a little lag because that bothers me and this kernel keeps my device smooth...
I didn't tested it on stock and I don't think that it will work, anyway, I can try to build custom stock kernel but I think that it's too late now for build to marshmallow

So, default cpu governor is performance? I hope it doesn't drains battery so much, since I usually prefer to just use the default setting because I believe OP have the best balanced settings there.

I don't know why your default gov is perfomance, change ir to interactive, I'll update this kernel soon... I'm a little busy for now on other things

Keep your time. You don't have to push an update all days. Let the users use it for a while and then report. One day with this kernel and report it is nothing. The system need time to get one with the kernel settings
G3X is pretty much beta. ArtX is not beta (IMO). If you want a more stable kernel use ArtX until this one gets all the kinks worked out.

I think I should also mention that I'm using RR 5.8.3 rom for F400 variant by oadam11, which is also have performance governor by default on its default kernel. Maybe there are something related.
Anyway, take your time, and thank you for your hard work.
EDIT: However, I've tried artxlight 2.1 but its governor wasn't set to performance by default. It was zzmoove.
Hi I have a little problem. When I flash through TWRP I get unsupported device and error 1. My device is d852.
