Just like for CM9, I started making CM10 kernels. The philosophy is the same: stock plus a few extras
This kernel is thus based on stock CM10-kernel by pawitp.
If you like a CM10-based ROM with the Mackay kernel included, there is also MackayROM:

This is a freshly started project. Ideas for improvements/additions are welcome but:
1. I try to stay close to stock
2. The time I spend on features depends on how much I like them myself

This version can only be used on ROMs with the updated partition layout and updated hwcomposer
Thank you! Gonna try it ^_^
gonna download
good to see you in JB
Does this kernel has Deep Idle by Ezekeel included?

No. All features are in OP (and can be seen on my github). I don't believe myself that deep idle is worth the risks....

By the way... what do you think about wheatley governor?

I tried it the whole day today actually. On ICS I was not too happy with it (no improvement, more battery drain), on JB it still doesn't feel much better than SmartassV2, but at least the drain is not higher anymore. I'll test it for a few more days
Yeeey. A new kernel for CM10 .That's good for us,users of this phone.
It's possible to include in your kernel voodoo sound support?
Hi thank you for your kernel, can you implement swap and zram features to your kernel?

No, again a feature that I don't feel adds that much. Also, I prefer kernel features that can be settings through cm10 settings, or terminal...

But swap maintains programs on memory, and switch between them instantly . Like the devil kernel...

I know the principle of swap. Sounds like an interesting idea to test. Not sure yet whether it falls within my philosophy
I think the "Keep it simple" philosophy is a good one. My favorites kernels of all time are Midnights, and they were "simple" yet very efficient.
The only thing I miss from Mackay is BLN, (and it was in midnight gb&ics), because not all apps works with the "simple" CM Led notification.
"keep it simple, keep it safe"
I don't really like bln as it requires a separate app to control. But I agree it works better than stock led. I'll give it a try
Verstuurd van mijn GT-I9000
With the help of rootax, I can now provide my kernel/roms with fast download! Link in OP has been updated. Thanks a lot rootax!
I added a vote option to choose between CM10 stock led notification and BLN. Please motivate your choice in a reply
I voted BLN, it works with more apps than cm led notif.

Install Synapse app from Play Store. We have backend developed to support Synapse app!
NXTweaks FAQ:
What is NXTweaks?
NXTweaks is a core app for this kernel which gives many controls at your finger tips.
These controls will help you to easily customize interfaces developed in this kernel.
So as you won't need to use Terminal Emulator and echo commands!
Try it once, and you will love it.
Why not TricksterMod or other kernel apps?
I would recommend NXTweaks since there are many interfaces like hotplug control, limiter driver, etc
will only available in NXTweaks. Also, NXTweaks classify different controls in different tabs making easy
for you. If you still don't like NXTweaks, leave it alone as it is.
NXTweaks vs STweaks
NXTweaks app is same as STweaks app in Play Store, however NXTweaks is updated one to fix crashes and comparatively better UI.
How can I install NXTweaks?
It gets auto-installed once this kernel boots. If not, read below.
NXTweaks not getting auto-installed / NXTweaks not showing up in App Drawer
This issue can be faced by users with encryption where data partition is not easily available to inject script.
You can install manually from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53849779&postcount=2808
NXTweaks app showing "Kernel Not Supported"
This issue can be faced by users with ROMs other than CM11 due to missing bash binary.
You need to flash fix from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54026032&postcount=2921

Oh thanks, took me 4 hours to make fist standalone linaro-based kernel for Google device. The source code is very clean and neatly maintained by Google unlike Samsung folks. And took me another 4 hours to upgrade from 3.4.0 to 3.4.30... more to go.
I am on DroidKang ROM currently (love the features of it) However, felt experience can be maximized with custom kernel and so starts Chaos kernel project.
I am also on latest droidkang ROM actually with elementalx kernel.
Feature request for your Kernel: s2w and dt2w like in bricked kernel and elementalx kernel
Thank you.

Yep. They are in my todo list along with an app to control same. Should be covered within this week.
Current progress: Patched successfully upto 3.4.50. We need to go upto 3.4.71.
Google devs are making these patches difficult since provided source code has few code updated well and left behind major chunk of code as of 3.4.0.
So, it take times to go through code and update.

Which one? One to support Faux Free App?
That is planned for next release.
Probably none of you knows me, but I have been developing Xposed modules which have 50 thousand+ downloads for quite long time. At the same time, I have been using OOS3 for its stability since last year. Although Boeffla kernel is a very good kernel, because of Oneplus's lack of careness, it has been missing a lot of security patches and improvements. At the same time, I want to improve and tweak Boeffla kernel a bit to fit my needs. So two weeks ago I started making this kernel based on Lord Boeffla's work and I think it is the time to share with you now.
It mainly majors in improving security and fixing issues, so I did not add too many features (And I think features like adding 10+ governors is a bad practice), but the features I added is of great use. Some of the features are unique in existing OP2 kernels.
I am sick of those kernels which say it is the smoother than butter or is more powersaving than Nokia 1100, and I do not think that could happen. What I provide is an average kernel with some little tweaks. If you are looking for some specific features, this is not the place for you.
The feature changes from original Boeffla kernel (Most changes are security patches):
Features:
- No feature is removed, 100% suitable for Boeffla config app;
- Add blu-active governor (thanks to engstk)
- Many charging tweaks
- Enable Arch power and gentle fair sleepers toggle (though I do not recommend toggling them)
- Add wakelocks toggle (thanks to Franco)
- Set I/O scheduler to noop after turning off screen in 60s to save idle power (thanks to Sultanxda)
- Various fingerprint speedups and haptic cleanups (thanks to Sultanxda and cyanogen)
- Lots of security improvements (thanks to CAF and Linux Upstream)
- Many many more...
Usages:
Flash the zip provided, then you can configure the parameters with Boeffla config app (may lack bunch of features) or my self-built kernel adiutor (the play store one will be lack of features). For keeping consistent with Boeffla config app, I implement some features to kernel adiutor, only screen gestures and sound configurations are left now) You can use them both too, but you need to enable "override" settings in Boeffla config app.

Credits:
Fist of all, thanks to Linux upstream and CAF. Without them, doing this work is impossible.
Of course, thanks to Lord Boeffla for providing a good kernel!
Then I want to thank to Sultanxda for the 30+ commits I picked and the guidance he provided. You are the real MVP!
I also want to say thanks to dorimanx, Joe Maple, myfluxi, Franco and engstk for the good features they provided.

- 10+ security patches

I did this just for myself, it is based on Boeffla because I used to use it. I just put it here in case others need it. Also, my kernel has some original thing that none of other OP2 kernels have.

Stock.
New Build is up.
Hi,
When I first flashed the kernel, it was fantastic like the fingerprint speed is crazy fast, but then randomly my phone will reboot and then keep rebooting straight after it reboots. It's not a boot loop because it does boot up, it's just that around 20 seconds of being on the os, it reboots again. What can I do to avoid this?
