Hi all,
some of you know me from the other OnePlus or Samsung devices areas, where I provide my kernels already for more than three years to OnePlus 3, OnePlus 2, OnePlus One, OnePlus X, Galaxy S5, S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, LineageOS, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Thanks to generous supporters, I now own a second OnePlus 3T device which allows me to also provide a LineageOS kernel for this device.
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Important notes
When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
Make sure you flash the correct kernel version, depending on whether you really use LineageOS or a different OS !!!
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official LineageOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
Installation
Read the install instructions in the support section on the Boeffla Site.
Support
First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app (quite outdated, as it is focused on S3 still).
Click here to learn about using the config app (quite outdated, as it is focused on S3 still).
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting/overclocking and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
I will refuse to give support if you have xposed framework installed and reporting any kind of weird issues. My opinion to xposed it quite clear: too powerful for >90% of the users that just mess up their system with it.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
custom hotplugging algorithms
a CAF based kernel
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the correct kernel depending on whether you are using LineageOS or another rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.4.33 or higher for the OnePlus 3T Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.

*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.

*** You want my support? Then stick to my rules ***
Guys, I am receiving more and more completely useless support requests in different threads. Useless because people provide nothing to be able to help, not even the minimal possible information they could give.
Hence, I will now remind anyone again on the support guide lines stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Also you need to ensure you follow the installation guide lines incl. trouble-shooting stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
And to cut a long story short: If you do not at least provide what I request in the support guide lines, I will IGNORE YOUR REQUESTS IN FUTURE.
Straight and simple. I have enough of people wasting my time just because they are too lazy to write details.
Period.
Also as a reminder:
you use xposed? -> no support, everything is your own issue
you use a custom rom and not the official stock or CM one? -> good luck, you are on your own
you undervolt or overclock? -> have fun, but without my support
Sorry, this might sound harsh (and it is meant to sound harsh), but you cannot imagine about how crappy support requests can be. Stating something does not work is just not enough.
Please consider that!!!
Andi
Good morning,
very first version 2.0-beta1 is out.
Expect bugs (but not too many as the kernel is very much similar to the OP3 LineageOS kernel).
Anyways enjoy
Andi
I just got the device and thought I would not unlock bootloader for some time. Damn it...

Come on. Without unlocked bootloader you have no fun
But I understand your point, it would be nice to have a device really being vanilla and unrooted.

Working nicely so far
so far so good just experiencing slow charging and heating while charge is it only me ? it takes around 1hr 49min to charge from (0 to 100)
finally ! for 3T lineage based. Welcome.
i was waiting for this, i wanted to see your kernel in action
Thank you very much, for this Kernel. This delivers the ultimate experience to the OP3T in my opinion!

Charging drivers are 100% original, no changes. Also nothing else changed that would cause that.
And yes, I do not face that myself at all.

Not by default: my rom does not change filenames, since it comes only with 3t blobs. You can either copy the files to their new names and go ahead (not tested), or you can build boeffla kernel yourself (very easy with @Lord Boeffla's provided scripts!) reverting the filename commit (tested with beta1 git status, I see no reason at all why current git shouldn't work).
BTW: @Lord Boeffla: thanx foe your efforts. Following your git with curiosity!
I get soft reboots on my OP3T on the official 20170223 build, when I try to use the gestures ("V" for Flashlight). Some else having this issue?

Interesting.
But I definitive have this issue only if I have the boeffla kernel installed.
Edit: After wiping my system partition and reflashing LineageOS, SU, Snapdragon Camera and the kernel, it works fine.

I'll stick with the kernel that ships with your ROM. I don't really know why I wanted to use a custom kernel, it's not like the ROM isn't quick as is to be honest.
Thank you for the advice tho.

Hi all,
some of you know me from the Samsung devices area, where I provide my kernels already for more than two years to Galaxy S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other, good existing kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).

Important notes
1) When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
2) Do NOT use TWRP's function to root your device after a clean rom flash!!! The installed supersu version is not up to date and may cause a bootloop with latest COS/CMs kernels !!!
3) Make sure you flash the correct kernel version, depending on whether you use cm11s stock or genuine cm11, COS13.0, COS12.1, COS12.1.1 or genuine CM13 !!!
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Saying that, the Boeffla-Sound app in Play Store is not designed to work on the OPO, neither was it developed by me, hence it will never work on the OPO ever. Boeffla-Config is the way to go here !!!

Not in my plans as I have only one device. So the same goes as long time ago for the S3 and n8000.
One device = only the "official" firmware. This is still my golden rule of thumb
If enough people help me to get a second device, it would change of course.

I know.
But I loose features, and like for a daily driver phone to stay on the official firmware the vendor provides. That is my concept for more than 3 years now and I was always good with it.
So, no intention to change.
The question from other side is (although it is OT): What does CM provide me which CM11s does not have?
I am not missing anything, thats my point
It is not about invites, but paying another 300 bucks is not possible for me this year anymore (spent around 15 k€ for relocations, my car got stolen in February and so on... was an expensive year for me).

No, of course not.
This is technically impossible. There are things in Samsung that do not exist on this hardware (e.g. big parts of boeffla-sound).
And vice versa.
And some are not needed as they are included here by default (e.g. touch wake etc).
If you look carefully at the feature list, you can spot the differences

Pretty sure you can get the kernel to work with AnyKernel, but of course, when you do this, YMMV. Since it's designed to work best with CM11s, it might perform worse on other ROMs (and then there comes the complaints, bugs, issues, etc.). Besides, I don't see any need for any other ROMs than CM11s. It gives you everything you need.
ive used that kernel until last week on my s3, it was by far the best.
(boeffla sound was great)
hoping for a cm11 version sooner or later for the 1+1 :victory:
I have used your kernel on my s3 for along time, it's awesome! Very happy to see your work on OPO.
Just ask one question, I'm using f2fs with ak kernel on my OPO now, so does this kernel support f2fs filesystem? Cuz i didn't find it on your feature list..
sorry for my english
Hi all,
some of you know me from the OnePlus One or the Samsung devices area, where I provide my kernels already for more than two years to Galaxy S5, S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Finally I got an OnePlus Two a few weeks ago and decided to start a kernel also for this device.
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other, good existing kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official OnePlus OOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
Important notes
When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
This kernel is ONLY compatible to OxygenOs stock 2.x or 3.x, nothing else !!!
If you are using a custom rom that bases on OxygenOs, it might work. However, if it does not work, do not expect me to do tweak to make the kernel running with your favorite rom. I would not do it - my one and only reference is OxygenOs stock.
It is not supposed to be compatible to LineageOS, CM, HydrogenOS etc.
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Support
First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app (outdated at the moment).
Click here to learn about using the config app (outdated at the moment).
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
I will refuse to give support if you have xposed framework installed and reporting any kind of weird issues. My opinion to xposed it quite clear: too powerful for >90% of the users that just mess up their system with it.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems
a CAF based kernel
anykernel method to use the ramdisk of the installed rom
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the kernel only if you are running a compatible rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.2.03 or higher for the OnePlus Two Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.
Source code
All sources can be found in my Github repository: http://github.com/andip71
Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* Ak
* Yank555
* Hardcore
* Chainfire
* Netarchy
* Gokhanmoral
* Simone201
* Entropy512
* Faux
* Savoca
... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!
Special thanks
Also I want to thank xda user @magnamentis for the ongoing testing to iron out the stability issues of the first alphas. He was doing that always taking the risk to "ffy" his brand new OP2.
Special thanks as well to @ZaneZam to pinpoint the issue during my absence as I was on business trips most of the time in the past weeks.
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Cheers and enjoy

*** You want my support? Then stick to my rules ***
Guys, I am receiving more and more completely useless support requests in different threads. Useless because people provide nothing to be able to help, not even the minimal possible information they could give.
Hence, I will now remind anyone again on the support guide lines stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Also you need to ensure you follow the installation guide lines incl. trouble-shooting stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
And to cut a long story short: If you do not at least provide what I request in the support guide lines, I will IGNORE YOUR REQUESTS IN FUTURE.
Straight and simple. I have enough of people wasting my time just because they are too lazy to write details.
Period.
Also as a reminder:
you use xposed? -> no support, everything is your own issue
you use a custom rom and not the official stock or CM one? -> good luck, you are on your own
you undervolt or overclock? -> have fun, but without my support
Sorry, this might sound harsh (and it is meant to sound harsh), but you cannot imagine about how crappy support requests can be. Stating something does not work is just not enough.
Please consider that!!!
Andi
I am just waiting for the source code push to github to finish.
Then I will officially open up the thread and release the first beta to all of you.
Andi
Online
Hi all,
kernel is now officially released in version 1.0-beta1.
Download link, as always, on the kernel homepage.
Some notes again:
Make sure you have latest Boeffla-Config app running -> 2.02.03 !!!
This is the very very very first kernel version, so expect bugs or issues
Please be nice when you have an issue, this OP2 kernel costed me more grey hairs already than all other kernels I ever built together
Let the fun begin.
Andi
Awesome!! As stated there's no gpu over clocking, however I don't play games on my phone, will I be able to downclock the gpu?
Finally will try and report if any bug welcome to the opt forums andi i was waiting for you (really)

Thanks a lot Andi!Had an awesome experience with the test kernel.Gonna flash this soon
Tapped from my ❶+❷
Downloading noww
I'm excited to finally try out this kernel. I've always stumbled upon threads that mentioned this kernel and since I've had my Nexus 6, I never got the chance to try this kernel out. But now that I joined the OnePlus 2 family, I can finally see what this kernel is all about!

Sure, just for expectation management: Do not expect too much for the start now.
The msm8994 soc development is quite fresh, as well as the device.
So I am not really far where I want to be in future in terms of features etc.
But stuff will come over the time, as it was with the OPO kernels and the S5, S3, Tab 10.1 kernels etc.

You need to download the app from here:

Save it on your phone, install it manually.

Is it possible (in future of course) to control more paramters of audio chip? (Like in your kernel for i9300 for example)

*** This kernel is now end-of-life and not supported nor actively developed anymore !!! ***
Hi all,
some of you know me from the other OnePlus or Samsung devices areas, where I provide my kernels already for more than three years to OnePlus 3T, 3, 2, one and X, Galaxy S5, S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Now I own a OnePlus 5 device and decided to port my kernels also to this device.
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other, good existing kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official OnePlus OOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
To add: A community build is NOT an official build supported here. If you use a community build and have issues, don't complain or even report.
Important notes
Read first, especially when you are new to my kernels:
http://wiki.boeffla.de
Boeffla-Kernel uses the anykernel concept = Flash stock kernel of rom first !
This kernel is ONLY compatible to OxygenOs stock, nothing else !!!
If you are using a custom rom that bases on OxygenOs, it might work. However, if it does not work, do not expect me to do tweak to make the kernel running with your favorite rom. I would not do it - my one and only reference is OxygenOs stock.
It is not supposed to be compatible to CM, HydrogenOS etc.
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Important: Manually disable battery optimisation for Boeffla-Config app in the rom settings (battery -> battery-optimisation)
Installation
Read the install instructions in the support section on the Boeffla Site.
Support
First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app (outdated at the moment).
Click here to learn about using the config app.
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting/overclocking and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
I will refuse to give support if you have xposed framework installed and reporting any kind of weird issues. My opinion to xposed it quite clear: too powerful for >90% of the users that just mess up their system with it.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
a CAF based kernel
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the kernel only if you are running a compatible rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app Boeffla-Config V2 from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.4.38 or higher for the OnePlus 5 Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.

Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* flar2
* arter97
* Grarak
* Entropy512
* Faux
* FranciscoFranco
* Ak
* Osm0sis
... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!

Goodie. Let's see what we can do. As said, I make it very dependent on weather, so probably would not work out.
But hey, we can meet any time when there is nice weather somewhere, so many nice locations here
And sorry for the rest of the folks, back on topic now.

I'm up and running with new Kernel. Phone works much smoother now.
Thank you Andi.
Also I made small donation for your other project, to keep you up and running.
I encourage others to donate as well, every penny counts to keep our Lord busy with new OP5.

@all: Have a great weekend, I am off for now, just checking from time to time during the weekend.
So please help each other in case known issues appear, especially the ones using my kernels already on older devices should be able to help out a lot
Enjoy the weekend

Glad to see you here Since Galaxy S3
great to see boeffla on OP5!
is it possible to deactivate the annoying charging light?
Hi all,
some of you know me from the other OnePlus or Samsung devices areas, where I provide my kernels already for more than three years to OnePlus 3T, 3, 2, One and X, Galaxy S5, S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other, good existing kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official LineageOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
Important notes
Read first, especially when you are new to my kernels:

Hi Lord, ur kernel is amazing. Nice work
Bug on RR Remix Unofficial Version ( with OOS cam )
Wanted to Point out that the kernel is working there fine but it has a big bug, because the oos cam is working there and is preinstalled, ist buging the camera app so the app always Closes itself after 5 seconds, noticed this only with this kernel ( tried also the original kernel that installs with the Rom and franco kernel, on both ist working normaly )
Hope you can fix this please so i can use your kernel again.

Nope, this is not a bug. Not a big or a small one.
This is you having not read the OP.
My kernel is for LineageOS, not for any other roms... especially not RR. So if you face issues on RR, no surprise.
If you want to use RR, you have to use a different kernel.
Funny it is not even an official rom but something unofficial... so you really claim my kernel would have a bug. Funny.

Ah Ok, i know that RR in this case is Special but i just thought to myself cause the current Versions of RR (both Official and Unofficial) are using LineageOS as base, so ist working there, that was the only Thing that not worked and that i noticed, so for me it was a bug, didnt want to offend you with that.
Just asked if you maybe can look in to this if this is possible as the rest is working fine and pretty good with your kernel.

Ah Ok, i know that RR in this case is Special but i just thought to myself cause the current Versions of RR (both Official and Unofficial) are using LineageOS as base, so ist working there, that was the only Thing that not worked and that i noticed, so for me it was a bug, didnt want to offend you with that.
Just asked if you maybe can look in to this if this is possible as the rest is working fine and pretty good with your kernel.

This would most probably require a special change in the kernel, which is RR specific.
I am sorry, but I will not do that as it violates my objectives.
Also I would never install RR myself, so I could not even do it for analysis.
Sorry, no fun.

Thanks my friend. Already merged.
I expect to ship an updated kernel out soon... just waiting for the latest nightly which is due today.
