[KERNEL][ICS][22.02.2012] Team Eos ROM - kernel collaboration & kernel thread

Hi guys,
in the future I will post the current modified kernel-source for the Team Eos ROM for kernel I'm using on my Xoom (and probably also the current compiled )
edit1:
current kernel-source - which I'm using with nightly #49 right now - is here:
Kernel Source:
tiamat-kernel-mod on github
update:
latest branch is at:
ics_tiamat_mod07
Installation:
either compile the kernel via ./xoom.sh and then flash the zip-package in release/Xoom
or
flash the attached compiled kernel in this post (which I'm currently using)
md5sum: ce0fdf52a8b0e28b6028a0e9cbd3f834 release/Xoom/ICS_20120222_Platypus_for_Xoom_r6.zip
Characteristics:
- hardfloat floating point (up to 40% more performance) + VFP-optimized flags
- cgroups timer slack to group together similar tasks to improve (lessen) cpu load [and potentially improve battery runtime]
- ck-patchset (by Con Kolivas): more efficient memory management & preparation for improved swap handling
- mmc/microSD card increased write timeout: fix against data loss when writing to slow cards
- quiet binder: (might not be a problem on this kernel but just in case)
- mmc: core: Claim host while freeing card: fix a BUG_ON while removing the sdcard
- pmem: fix buddy free memory corruption bug
- LOAD_FREQ (4*HZ+61) to avoid loadavg Moire
- more tighter CFS (cpu scheduler) timings: more smoothness and less delay / lags
- conservative governor tweak: to make it a min/max governor
- unlikely-likely cleanups & optimizations: less false branch-prediction
- vmscan: move referenced VM_EXEC pages to active list
- enable advanced congestion control (for network) & set YeAH TCP to be the default
- a few filesystem/inode integrity improvements
- improved memcpy & memmove
- nohz/sched: delay going tickless when CPU is loaded should in total cut down power consumption e.g. while MP3 playback
- FuguMod network security enhancements (thx to nikademus !)
- add nofail variants of kmalloc kcalloc kzalloc for the filesystems
- BFQ i/o scheduler v3-r2 for 2.6.39
- to be built with Linaro 4.5 toolchain
- graphite + other optimization flags [testing & need feedback - battery, performance, stability, etc.]
- kernel compiled with stack-smashing protector support
- UACCESS_WITH_MEMCPY disabled (higher latency)
- syncookies enabled
- (access to) DEVMEM & DEVKMEM disabled
- paranoidly initialize SD
- make kernel panic & reboot during hardlock
- debug memory during bootup (once)
- add some crypto algorithms
- add support for unaligned accesses (more performance)
- improved sha1-implementation
- smartass V2 governor (for testing)
- remove the generic_file_aio_read() plug [should improve performance & fix a regression - not sure if it plays that much of a role on the Xoom]
update:
some more stuff got added (among those: tailored CFLAGS to the tegra2 architecture/processor) - will add those here in the list later
Kudos:
Bigrushdog
Coolbho3000
Solarnz
Kcrudup
Cybertronic
Steady Hawkin
TDR
Bazar6
and all the other kernel devs out there
DISCLAIMER: the kernel (binary) and driver modules are provided as is. If problems occcur they most probably are from upstream and can be fixed with the newest version. Since I'm doing this in my free spare time as a hobby (quenching my thirst for tweaks & performance) updates will occur irregularly as time permits and I see fit (most probably when new features & bugfixes arrive). YOU are responsible for the actions that you take (such as over- or underclocking), etc. You agree that I can not be held liable for any potential damage that arises from your actions in combination with or the usage of this kernel and other related parts.
edit0:
a few questions for the start:
- anyone attempted & was crazy enough to test grsecurity stuff on their kernel ?
- until now I only flashed the kernel via fastboot flash:raw and by linking to the initramfs - how to build the gzipped cpio file into the kernel ?
--> adding it to CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="" ?
Looking forward to improving the Xoom experience !
Thanks !
Xoom Xoom

*) nope the whole repo is cloned, not sure if there's on option only to clone ics branch
*) you need an ARM toolchain to compile it (e.g. https://android-build.linaro.org/ , use 4.5 toolchain for this; https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/toolchain-4.5-2011.10/)
*) it naturally should be make stingray_defconfig - but better get the config from the running kernel on your Xoom zcat /proc/config.gz and place it in arm/arm/configs/tingray_defconfig then attempt to build
hope that helps
I'm currently still looking for SLQB and classic rcu or another more light-weight RCU implementation for the 2.6.39 kernel for SMP
there exists Tiny preemptible RCU but this only for UP (uniprocessor) so doesn't apply
any ideas ?

Ok ok I'll talk with Solarnz and see if we can post something soon. There's been ALOT of config80211 coming from upstream. When we publish it'll be a doozie
And ill publish a version for the module fans out there

ok, got some time to test the BFS scheduler which might have or not have improved battery runtime
but definitely might have improved smoothness (e.g. on the galaxy s it does)
unfortunately it doesn't play nice with the android kernel (such as the same problem occured with the kernel 2.6.35-based kernel on the gt-i9000/galaxys s and only really started to work more or less properly after it got ported to 3.0-kernel)
so there must be another way to improve smoothness ...

Thanks man you made my day !!
Now i got kernel compiled but have the same problem like you without insert initramfs file ... did you fixed these problem ?
Does you could check out if we could combine xoom kernel with V4L Stuff ??
Great would be the chance to get also UVC integrated !!

like bighrushdog or solarnz already answered:
the initramfs is preserved while flashing the kernel via cwm
you can however also extract the initramfs and flash it via fastboot (that's what I usually do)
to be honest I'm currently trying to keep the footprint of kernel development as low as possible for me & I'm rather uninterested in that camera stuff right now
sorry
edit:
@all that are interested:
please give the latest kernel a try and tell what you like or don't like about it (e.g. governors, etc.)
when it works well I'll issue an pull-request to get it "upstream" into the tiamat kernel
the current kernel (ICS_20120222_Platypus_for_Xoom_r6.zip) has been tested on Team Eos nightly #70
Thanks !

Flashed! I hope in a no drain battery. Native gov is Ondemand (where's SmartAssv2?) let's test it and wait few days
EDIT : mmmmmhhhh it seems like CPU doesn't sleep. Keep testing
Sent from my Xoom on EOS ICS Everest

Support USB Mass Storage ?
like rogue kernel support fat-32?

As you know, the modules are the easy part. Implementation is a nightmare and not high on the priority list. However, I've spent the last few days tearing bcmdhd and wpa_supp apart looking for the final piece of the adhoc puzzle. I have alot of info. If you're interested we can open a discussion. Cause its kicking my ass atm
I figured out the adhoc problem but i'm not sure just how to fix it yet. See my post in the EOS rom threads. Also, i merged your mod8 branch with my ics_drivers branch. I'm gonna build and flash. I bet it kicks serious ass!

[Kernel] [PrimoU] 2013/05/21 Titanium-KISS

Hi
IMPORTANT: Before you continue reading!
At the moment this kernel is only for PrimoU devices
and NOT for PrimoC (CDMA) devices
IMPORTANT for CM users
If you want to use CM or a CM based ROM choose the correct kernel!
CM9 needs a different ramdisk.
With the permission from Adi_Pat I would like to announce my kernel build
All credits to this should go to Adi_Pat cause he did the hard work for
providing me with all I need. Therefore also the name has been
choosen to make this clearly visible.
This is just a first announcement.
I will upload the first image tonight
Principle #1:
Provide a kernel that is as close to stock as possible but provides
additional features that will improve functionality and/or performance
Some Q&A you might have
Q: what stands KISS for?
A: Keep It Simple, Stupid!
My aim is to provide a kernel that is 99.99% stock with just additional features
In the first build you will see
-OC (max 1.5)
-UV
-2 new goveners (lionheart, smartassV2)
-1 new scheduler (sio)
Q:will you provide a kernel with 2.0GHz?
A:No - since I want to provide a stable kernel and
my experiences showed that only using up to 1.5 is reliable
If you like to have higher frequencies you can
1) use Adi_Pats kernel
2) build your own kernel based on my changes and enable higher frequencies
Q:can I build my own kernel based on your changes?
A:sure. I will provide a patch file that can be applied on the original
sources provided from HTC
Q:how "close" is your kernel to stock?
A:actually if you dont use OC, UV and use govener=ondemand and
scheduler=deadline this IS stock kernel
Q:can you include feature "xy" in your build?
A:I will check and if it is not "against" principle #1 -Yes
Q:will you test your kernel builds?
A:yes. I will only provide images that have been tested to
1) boot without problems
2) have run through a basic test trying to include all important features
3) run some benchmarks to confirm that changes are not decreasing basic performance values
Q:how to install your kernel?
A:like titanium kernel
fastboot flash boot
regards
max

I provide a complete folder with all downloads
please look at the following "naming conventions" for selecting
the correct image for your ROM!
Images containing "OC-UV" will have presets
Images containing "CM9" are for CM9
Images containing "CM10" are for CM10
All others are for stock (sense) ROMs

Congrats on your kernel maxwen!

I will never forget it．lol

Great, i started with kernel compiling too, recently,, keep titanium tweaker in ur ramdisk, if possible, ill update u with the ramdisk builds, will add kernel specif features if u want, pm me

Hi
Sure. Will contact you after posting the first build.

Hi ..
im tested this kernel on the ROM myONEv works
kernel is very fast and stable.
best benchmark!

I'll try it once I got on my lappy

Thanks for a nice kernel. So far the OC/UV is working great fro me.
What is the best recommended governor for wake / sleep ?

Use only CPUFreq and use smartAssV2 as it has both sleep and wake freqs...UV -50 should be good!

Hi
Actually there are a lot of things that you can tweak in the goveners
using the sys interface to make them perform best under certain "preconditions"
You can read this here which I also posted in the Adi_Pat thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369817
This will give you some great insights on this issue.
Also about the "decision" which govener to use a.s.o
Regarding UV:
As already writen above -50 should be safe all the time
-100 works for me if I limit it to max 1.2GHz but not higher
Then I sometimes have freezes e.g. runnung AnTuTu benchmark
I still have to play with the UV settings to find the optimal ones
Regards
max

Hi
ATTENTION!!!!
Dont use sio I/O scheduler at the moment!!!!
I just discovered some strange during testing.
Stay with deadline this is stock
Will keep you informed if sio is really the reason
If it is it will be removed in next build
regards
max
EDIT: Even intensive testing has not given me the proof that the
sio scheduler was the reason.

Running this kernel with stock rom, wil I still get FOTA updates from HTC?

AFAIK this has nothing to do with the kernel in the first place
but with rooting. Someone may correct me if I am wrong

[KERNEL][3.0.101][LINARO 4.7.4][AOSP UBER/Stable 4.3.x/4.2.2 Kernels][Hercules]

Hey Everyone,
I'm by no means a pro at kernel building but I've put lots of effort into these kernels so I thought I'd share them with you. The Uber kernel will always be updated to the latest Kernel version and will be overclocked to 1890 MHz. The Stable Kernels will have similar options but will not be Overclocked. Unlike some of the other T-mobile Galaxy S II Hercules developers out there, I actually have a Galaxy S II and plan on having it until Summer 2014. This means that EVERY KERNEL I POST HAS BEEN TESTED AND IS WORKING although it might not be perfect (few things in life ever are).
Even though I don't post anything unless it works I still don't want to be liable for user errors. In other words, if you flash one of these Kernels your warranty is void and I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE for any data loss or bricked devices etc. That being said, you really have nothing to fear but fear itself because these kernels work and because I packaged a stock kernel so you can revert back at any time. ​A Clean install is ALWAYS recommended. That does not necessarily mean you can't install these kernels on you current build it just means that you might have problems if you do. Recently apps have been getting corrupted for whatever reason whether on Stock or AOSP and in most cases they cause RRs and SODs. If you find yourself in one of those situations a clean install is the easiest fix. If you want to try and save you apps then connect to you phone while in recovery using adb. Then type adb shell. Now once you are in that shell you can run this command to fix your apps "e2fsck -yfDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25" it could take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour depending on the state of your apps.
IMPORTANT!!!! There are now two 4.3 UBER Kernels. One for Pre OCT 22 and One for Post OCT 22! Due to CM GPU updates you need to be careful which one you flash. Be careful you don't flash the wrong one. Download both for safety sake so you can flash a second one if you get crazy colors and other graphical gliches.​

All old Kernels can be found on Dev Host via this link (be careful you read file names and descriptions carefully if you choose to take a peek around) http://d-h.st/users/Cl3Kener/​
Installation Instructions for ALL Kernels
**** IMPORTANT!!! USE TWRP 2.5.0.0 or earlier for 4.2.2 and TWRP 2.6.1.0 + for 4.3.x kernels!!! Failure to do so may result in bootloops due to changes made to TWRP to accomodate SELinux in 4.3.x ROMs which messes up 4.2.2 permissions (Links include flashable TWRP installation zips credits to meekrawb. Just flash them in your current recovery! ) ****
1. For best results a install these kernel after a fresh ROM install (although it still should work if you don't do that)
2. Reboot into recovery (MAKE SURE YOU USE THE RIGHT ONE!!! (See red print above))
3. Flash Kernel Zip
4. Reboot and let Settle for ~10 minutes
5. Install Trickster MOD from the App Store for access to all of the options.
6. Change the settings to something other than INTERACTIVE (Especially if you run it with BFQ it will give you the worst screen lag ever). Then enable "Set at Boot" and push the check mark button at the top right hand portion of the screen or else you will lose your configurations.
7. Enjoy!!!
​
Error Reporting
I am always open to hearing about your errors although just telling me something went wrong without giving me details does me absolutely no good. So here are my expectations if you do want to complain about something not working:
1. Please list the ROM you are using,
2. The IO scheduler you were using
3. The CPU governor you were using
4. The CPU frequency range (192/1080 etc)
5. What you have done to attempt to fix it.
6. If you were able to simulate it again using the same settings.
7. Anything else you think is applicable to the issue
I would also hope that you would consider trying some of the following things to fix your issue before you ever report it because most of these things will fix the problem without me even having to change a thing.
1) Fix file permissions using a program that does a thorough job. I recommend using the fix file permissions in ROM manager because it is the best I’ve seen. For the record, I don’t actually use ROM manager for anything other than fixing permissions. Please consider trying this first because it tends to fix most of the FC/RR/SOD errors you might have.
2) Make a backup and install a clean version of the ROM you are running and see if you are still experiencing those same errors. You may have corrupted files if you’ve been dirty flashing.
3) If that doesn’t solve it, redownload and reflash, maybe something got corrupted but it still managed to flash. This happens sometimes and I can cause you grief.
4) For advanced users pull a logcat. I know not everyone knows how to do this but you can learn if you check out this OP or other ones like it

Sure. What would you like to see?
If it is OC the GPU and CPU of the Tiberius Kernel... Don't worry I'm working on it!

Hell yeah might give these a go

Could you add the ROW scheduler?
Would you also add Lulzactive if possible?
Also, does the 4.1.2 Touchwiz kernel have OC?

You should have named your kernel spartacus instead.

Absolutely. I'm so used to CM including that I didn't even notice it was missing..... I guess I already have something to add to Version 1.1
I have a copy of lulzactive. I can try it and see what happens
I'm still adding OC to Tiberius.

Actually you're right. For some reason the Samsung kernel source code doesnt have row. I'll add it and lulzactive and Overclocking

Thanks dude. TW 4.1.2 performs much better with interactive governor than with ondemand. Vector runs much smoother now. Can't wait for CPU and GPU OC!

Nicee starting your own kernel I see. I'm about to update that kernel builds script thread with a video with my latest version of my build script. Be on a lookout for that

Can I make a request? Or if my wish is simple enough for a quick answer that'd be even better. How do you remove the T-mobile kernel splash screen? Jist figured how to enable custom boot animations but the kernel spash is still there ruining it lol. Thanks!

just flashed your tw 4.1.2 kernel over ptmr3 jedi mind trick jb 1.1. booted fine and ill report back later with my findings.:good:
using trickster mod to set gov/io min/max setting stick after reboot. running very smooth right from the start. CI3Kener i think this one is a keeper. good job bro!!! i appreciate all the hard work you do for this community

great
5 Stars for this good kernel
+1

Thanks for your work but I noticed you repo has a lot of branches. what branch is used for AOSP? my-brood-kk I assumed. but I'm not 100% sure

Is nice to see you have your own thread now .
I'm going to test the new kernel now on jamal's RC2 and report on the usage.
Thanks!

Awesome

You are welcome Yes I have two branch for AOSP. (my-cm-11.0 and my-brood-kk)
I have to test and release kernel also for AOSP KK ROM! I need also to import some commits into

i have not rr since L version ....good kernel and good dev ...i like you

Here is a mirror in MEGA:

Cheers!

Alucard Many Thanks from Portugal for your EFFORT.
No RR anymore..

does this kernel have better performance than stock GE kernel? or same? would be awesome a tweaked linaro GE kernel :good:

Alucard you refer that latest kernel release is v2.3.4lg,
i installed but on my kernel version is 2.3.4l, i do not have "lg"
is it ok?

Careful please: there is a version with new and old memory setup. LOS uses from today the new memory setup. i build both versions because not all custom rom have ported this.

thanks. nice to see someone knows me after a long time away.

tested the kernel briefly on Unofficial RR, the UFS speeds seem to be much better than LK or Carbonite... missing the home button though flashing like crazy today, can't catch a break

@AuxXxilium as you've stated in OP home button is not usable, But mine is working fine..

OMG, you are alive still? Used to use your kernel before I learned how to make kernels

I remember you from the G2 times too, I used to follow your work back then, I'm happy to see you again. I'll definitely try your kernel and keep my eye on this thread!

Glad to see more kernel devs are supporting us folks on LOS. Flashing this kernel presently.

Thanks I am just a noob haha, you didn't want to believe me

I'm running latest Codeworkx build. Home button doesn't work with stock or vision kernel, but works with lightning kernel. Don't know why

Please be careful. i removed the latest version - because it crashes the dash charge. search for the problem and will fix it soon.
