Introduction
Oxygen Kernel is based on stock Samsung source code taken from Samsung Opensource Release Center with sole aim to provide better performance, stablity and battery backup than stock kernel. A kernel tells the hardware in your Android device how to behave, kind of like your mommy tells you how to behave. You can modify how fast your processor runs by over or under clocking it or optimize your system for battery life.
Oxygen Kernel is always up-to-date with latest patches from kernel.org
Known for maximum stability and smooth performance
All the Source Code is available on github
Kernel Info

Warning: If you come from some other custom kernel or have any issues, you should dirty flash your ROM before flashing Oxygen Kernel to avoid problems.
Reflash ROM -> Flash Oxygen Kernel --> Flash Magisk if you want to root
If you are upgrading between Oxygen Kernel versions, just flash the kernel zip. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
Going back to stock: You can backup your boot.img with TWRP before flashing Oxygen Kernel and restore the backup whenever you want to revert.
This kernel removes forced encryption, if you face "encryption process failed" error upon reboot then you need to format /data. This is generally needed if you are installing this kernel on stock tw rom

Hi! Since the OP only mentions "sultanxda branch" is it safe to assume that it has all the latest patches for 5.1.1 as well? Or is it only for MM roms?

From github it seems it's mm only.

Thanks for the response. I'm waiting for the Omni team to fix the nasty Network Switching Mode bug to jump to MM. Also, doze is pretty useless on whatsapp and other push notification apps, and they eat most of the battery. So no big reason for me to jump to MM as of now. I wish google could fix the Mobile Radio active bug before releasing MM to public.
Does this have multirom support?
Kexec Hard boot support is not yet added in this rom, but according to me sultanxda has already used it in her kernel, so the features of sultanxda are already present plus i have added some stuff and will keep on adding it So have patience, for now CM is the priority and then CAF
Regards
Andy
Multirom support?
Kexec hardboot is what we call multirom support... And sultan has already committed in his source. So it will work. So please give a try and report.
#Andy1911 sorry for a NOOB question - but how is your kernel better/different from Sultans CAF kernel? What are the benefits?

Actually I have added some features to the kernel. Like hotplug and governers. They help us in handling device in more better manner. Sultan has already added features for stability and performance but I am trying to optimize more I can. It will make the device run more better and smoother. Features like fsync help device to manage files more easily. Franco sound driver helps gain volume more than stock can give. Such features make our life easier nothing else and device becomes smarter just as it has its own mind or kind of stuff. It can handle itself more precisely. Like Controlling it's own frequency and handling clock. You can give a try to these features and then see the difference. That's it. I made it because unfortunately @ak is not working more for the device and the features I desired were not available In the kernels available now. So I made it myself nothing elz...
And remember no question is a noob. Your desire to gain more knowledge is really appreciable..
Thanks

Thx for the quick reply - will try it out, hope it gives me better battery life....
One more question I noticed the status in op says testing, what does that say as far as how stable your kernel is right now (I know what testing usually means but wanted to see if there are any issues to look out for)

No issues right now, I am actually not USING CAF, I love CM, so i havent tested yet, but my friend said that there are no issues and he is running bugless right now, So I will expect a complete review and then declare it as stable

1] This kernel removes forced encryption, if you face "encryption process failed" error upon reboot then you need to format /data. This is generally needed if you are installing this kernel on stock tw rom.
2] In OneUI Pie ROMs you may get a warning at boot saying "There's an internal problem with your device". You can safely ignore this warning and causes no harm. It's due to some mismatching KNOX/mobicore stuff. I'll fix it soon.

DarkLord1731 an excellent work, I have been testing it for several days and there are many improvements that for the moment and perceived.
But I have a small bug ... I have an unlock pattern configured that when I am connected to the Wi-Fi network, I do not ask for it every time I lock and unlock the screen, when I turn off Wi-Fi if you ask me every time ... someone more with this problem? (G translate)

There are two branches:
Stable - which has all proven and tested development
Beta - new features introductions. Remember if your chip fries... It was done with good intentions, intended only for brave people.
To build this kernel I give a huge thank you to great dev @savoca has had a lot of patience and shared his knowledge to build a kernel with a step by step guide, as also explaining how each stuff works.
@andi79 for the introduction of the 64bit model kernel compilation.
All credits go to the OnePlus team.
Disclaimer: With the use of this kernel I am not responsible for any damage to the phone. It is at your own risk in case happens something wrong. I use this kernel daily and test it before release.

Troubleshooting :
No wifi or broken hotspot.
Solution: You probably come from another kernel, please reflash rom, then flash kernel.
Battery drain:
This rom has a bug in the wifi. Please go to advanced settings and turn off scanning always available.
On status appears kernel 4.4.21
Since there is a requirement to the kernel say that is version 4.4.21-perf+ for wifi to work then I named the kernel 4.4.21-perf+. This until I check wifi driver source.

Hello everyone, this is my personal kernel for the OnePlus 5. While I am not a super star kernel developer, I do know my way around it. Hopefully you enjoy :highfive:
NOTE: This list fluctuates with versions, it will not always been 100% up to date
Here are the major features of the kernel (feel free to explore Github)
Based on GzR kernel
Up to date with the latest stable Linux version (4.4.159)
Up to date with the latest CAF branch (kernel.lnx.4.4.r27-rel)
Mainline patches from Linux, focusing on bug fixes/security
Mainline CFQ scheduler improvements
Several subsystems converted to use power efficient workqueues
Backlight dimmer
KCAL color control
CPU Input Boost driver
Devfreq Boost driver
Sound control
Wakelock control
Westwood as the default TCP algorithm
Built with the latest Google Clang 7.0.2 toolchain
Hides bootloader unlock from SafetyNet (can still fail through other means)
Disables dm-verity
Does NOT modify decryption status
Flashed with AnyKernel2 (thanks to @osm0sis)
Primary: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=283181
Through TWRP:
If you are on a custom ROM:
If you are on the kernel that came with your ROM: flash the kernel zip and reboot
If you are on a custom kernel: dirty flash your ROM zip, flash the kernel zip, and reboot
Upgrading from one Reaper version to the other:
Just flash the kernel zip and reboot
1.1 Q: I am having an issue, can you help me?
1.1 A: I am not an amazing kernel developer but I will certainly try my best. First, start by reading the release posts, as I may make note of a particular issue. Also search the thread to see if I have discussed it before. If you see nothing, please provide me with a dmesg/last_kmsg and logcat, your ROM/kernel version, and a detailed description of the issue, following this guide. If I can't reproduce reliably, I'm not going to fix the issue.
1.2 Q: What ROMs are compatible with the custom builds?
1.2 A: My daily driver is GZOSP so I test all the builds on this ROM but this kernel should work on other pie ROMs. If you are using a ROM with no issues, let me know and I'll add it here! If you are having issues, following the above steps and I'll attempt to fix whatever incompatibility there is. If I can't do it without breaking GZOSP compatibility, you're out of luck.
1.3 Q: Can you add xyz feature?
1.3 A: If you link me the commits or tell me what kernel you had the feature in, I can take a look at them. I will not go digging super hard for commits and I will ignore requests that don't include this information. I won't promise that I will merge every request but I will always take it into consideration.
1.4 Q: How do I control the kernel?
1.4 A: I want to be very clear: the kernel does NOT need to be tuned to be useful. Most of the improvements are under the hood and don't require any user intervention to take advantage of them. In fact, if you don't know what you are doing, you could degrade the experience. To control the user visible features of the kernel listed above, I recommend using @flar2's EX Kernel Manager.
1.5 Q: OMFG MY BATTERY SUXXXX PLS FIX!!!
1.5 A: The kernel doesn't drain any battery, use an app like BetterBatteryStats to figure out what app is screwing with your phone.

Added to the OnePlus 5 Index Thread here. Also, a suggestion @FRNKSTN, do include the [KERNEL] tag in the thread title, because at the moment the title doesn't convey whether Reaper is a kernel or a custom ROM.

It's working good still. It should theoretically work fine with Oreo until OnePlus releases Pie or until there are too many Pie specific commits in the kernel.

how does it compare?
One small bug, the link speed for wifi is always 0.
The wifi works fine though

Kernel is pretty smooth but on the balanced profile the big core is at least 25%-30% on the top frequency just when browsing net or chatting WhatsApp. Normally smurf and holydragon doesn't act like this on balanced profile
