[KERNEL][AOSP][EXT4] Kang Bang! 7/12/2011 [BFS/CFS][OC/UV][BFQ]

Here we go guys, new version of my BFS AOSP kernel (sense to come)
Been working hard on this kernel for quite some time, and Birdman helped out drastically (even though he broke stuff )
Big thanks to: Birdman, Slayher, Captainkrtek, Imoseyon (for the 2.6.35 port), Jake Day, Pershoot, and plenty of others I can't remember right now.
KangBang 0.8
Kanged workqueue 2.6.36.1 backport from Imoseyon
Kanged 3.0rc6 cpufreq/cpuidle backport from Imoseyon
Couple other adjustments
Added new CPU governor: LagFree. This new governor is based on conservative, and tweaked to lower the cpu frequency on suspend, and keep it over a minium value
during phone operation. This governor added some nice tweaks to be added to other governors, looking in to that.
Swap cache dropped more agressively via ck1 patch
More compiler optimizations
Decrease default dirty ratio via ck3 patch
Enable swaptoken only when swap is full via ck3 patch
Wifi voltage lowered
2.6.39 Conservative governor backported
Call Recording support added
2.6.39 bcm4329 (wifi) driver backported
Mecha: Add gan sound device.
Mecha: Allow varying of button backlight levels.
Mecha: Allow disabling of the back mic.
Mecha: Add gan sound device
Mecha: wifi: Improve BT-coex in A2DP mode
KangBang 0.7:
Added SmartAss back
Ondemand and interactive have sleep profiles again
Sound fix from birdman included
SLQB Memory Allocator re-added
KangBang 0.6:
Re-based to Ace kernel source, so I lost some of my changes for now (until i'm not so lazy and fix them)
There are a LOT of changes/additions.
Theres a new RCU boost, which is proving to be nice so far.
Changed the memory allocator to SLUB until I get SLQB ported in
As of right now, theres no auto sleep profile in ondemand/interactive. Both of these governors still need adjustments.
The clock frequencies are the default CM frequencies. Their table is populated correctly, and currently, I'm adding frequencies back in one at a time to make sure it will boot. This will take a while... bare with me guys
Lowered RR_Interval to 6 to increase latency. Might drop it to 4
Neon and VFP optimizations
OnDemand governor Threshold adjustments
CONFIG_HZ=300 instead of 100
Add Tiny Preempt RCU
RCU Boost Prio set to 50, Delay set to 300 (still playing with these)
Sound tweaks credit to CodeAurora/Birdman
GPU Memory allocation raised
Numerous fixes from CM kernel source
KangBang 0.5:
Reverted the GPU/Camera memory allocation adjustment, as it screwed up the camera.
Reverted to my old config file, as the extra slim one broke certain apps
Stabilized voltages
KangBang 0.4:
Full wifi/settings/MMS/etc. fix credit to beavis9k!!
Added V/R I/O Scheduler (still using BFQ as default for now)
BT Audio volume raised (Credit to Slayher)
Prevent memory leak on hotplug (thx Pershoot)
GPU/Camera memory allocations raised
Cleaned up my defconfig even more. This kernel is tiny, tinier than ever before. The actual kernel zImage is 1.9mb as opposed to the 2.2 it was before. This will allow a performance increase, as there is less the kernel is trying to crank out.
Initial release, 0.3:
Feature packed for the first release.
2.6.35.13 (latest upstream linux kernel)
System/Data/Cache mounted EXT4
Numerous EXT4 file system tweaks
Overclock up to 1.8 Ghz
Undervolted for battery life/stability
BFS v404 (HUGE performance increase from the v3xx BFS series)
Tiny RCU
SLQB Memory Allocator
BFQ v2rc1 I/O Scheduler (much nicer than the original BFQ)
Kernel speed defaulted to 1024, stock tbolt speed
OnDemand governor backported from 2.6.39, with sleep/wake code (kanged from Imoseyon's OnDemandX, thanks Imoseyon!)
Wifi driver updated to latest AOSP driver
AOSP-style BT driver (kanged from Slayher's kernel source, thanks Slayher!)
MULTIPLE fixes pulled in from CyanogenMod MSM7x30 kernel source (time compensation, ashmem flush, wifi n support, CPU-supported unaligned access, compensation for rounding on odd-frequency clocksources, etc.)
Interactive governor with sleep/wake code (kanged from interactiveX, thanks Imoseyon!)
Numerous BFS tweaks for better performance, and better support for android.
SD Card read-ahead buffer increased
FS read-ahead buffer increased
Some other things I probably can't remember right now (I should take better notes, I'll add more as I remember)
Whew. Pretty hefty initial release.
Secondly, I comply with GPL. Here is my source code. Feel free to kang away, just credit me, at least in your source if not anywhere else

Post back your experiences, please
It's been an openish beta on twitter for a while, but this release version has quite a few nice additions.

I will bang this kang and let you know what's goodies.

Looking forward to the sense version - unless of course the cell standby battery drain issue is no longer there on CM7 using this kernel.

Big thanks to: Birdman, Slayher, Captainkrtek, Imoseyon (for the 2.6.35 port), Jake Day, and plenty of others I can't remember right now.

Installed came from dream kernal...so far so good has alot of overclock options I'm on stock speeds right now right of the bat I notice its charging really quickly, no apps uninstalled yet
Edit: wifi connected right away but right when I turned it of had 3g
green but no data did reboot with wifi off and fixed
Edit: battery is really good on this kernal I'm getting 10min per percentage on medium to heavy use

From what I can tell, data handoff seems to be A LOT LESS flaky than on other kernels. Battery life will the true test for me.
Unrelated but related: Anyone have LPP FC upon EVERY reboot now? Works fine after it has been restarted.
I have experienced this across kernels/voltages/governors/CPU freq.

Awesome, just loaded it up.
Preferred tweak method......CM settings, setcpu, does it have speedtweak?
Thanks!!!!

FAQ:
Hopefully this answers some common questions.
I will add to this as kernel changes are made.
On UnSenseROM Jelato, there is a script in /system/etc/init.d called 00_vdd_levels if I recall the name exactly.
It's essentially a text file that should be either deleted, or remove the ## from the name of it so it doesn't run at boot.
Then whatever app is used to control governors and clock speeds will not get reset upon rebooting, whether you use the built in CPU Controls or No Frills, etc,..
On my other roms, the same rule applies, if there is a script in /system/etc/init.d with vdd levels in the name, remove it or rename it.
On NuSenseX ROM you should be careful touching anything in init.d, or you could break your wifi connection.
Soon, I intend to have kernels that will be baked into each rom, and there will be no need to concern oneself with any of this, and it's really nothing of much concern anyhow.
But I think that about covers most cases...
____
GOVERNORS
1) Ondemand:
Default governor in almost all stock kernels.
One main goal of the ondemand governor is to switch to max frequency as soon as there is a CPU activity detected to ensure the responsiveness of the system.
Effectively, it uses the CPU busy time as the answer to "how critical is performance right now" question.
So Ondemand jumps to maximum frequency when CPU is busy and decreases the frequency gradually when CPU is less loaded/apporaching idle.
Even though many of us consider this a reliable governor, it falls short on battery saving and performance on default settings.
One potential reason for ondemand governor being not very power efficient is that the governor decide the next target frequency by instant requirement during sampling interval.
The instant requirement can respond quickly to workload change, but it does not usually reflect workloads real CPU usage requirement in a short enough time and it may cause it to frequently change between highest and lowest frequency.
2) Conservative:
A slower Ondemand which scales up slowly to save battery.
The conservative governor is based on the ondemand governor.
It functions like the Ondemand governor by dynamically adjusting frequencies based on processor utilization.
However, the conservative governor increases and decreases CPU speed more gradually.
Simply put, this governor increases the frequency step by step on CPU load and jumps to lowest frequency on CPU idle.
Conservative governor aims to dynamically adjust the CPU frequency to current utilization, without jumping to max frequency.
The sampling_down_factor value acts as a negative multiplier of sampling_rate to reduce the frequency that the scheduler samples the CPU utilization.
For example, if sampling_rate equal to 20,000 and sampling_down_factor is 2, the governor samples the CPU utilization every 40,000 microseconds.
3) Interactive:
(currently my recommended governor for best overall battery and performance)
Can be considered a faster ondemand. So - more snappier, less battery!
Interactive is designed for latency-sensitive, interactive workloads.
Instead of sampling at every interval like ondemand, it determines how to scale up when CPU comes out of idle.
The governor has the following advantages:
1) More consistent ramping, because existing governors do their CPU load sampling in a workqueue context, but interactive governor does this in a timer context, which gives more consistent CPU load sampling.
2) Higher priority for CPU frequency increase, thus giving the remaining tasks the CPU performance benefit, unlike existing governors which schedule ramp-up work to occur after your performance starved tasks have completed.
Interactive - It's an intelligent Ondemand because of stability optimizations. Why??
Sampling the CPU load every X ms (like Ondemand) can lead to under-powering the CPU for X ms, leading to dropped frames, stuttering UI, etc.
Instead of sampling the CPU at a specified rate, the interactive governor will check whether to scale the CPU frequency up soon after coming out of idle.
When the CPU comes out of idle, a timer is configured to fire within 1-2 ticks.
If the CPU is very busy between exiting idle and when the timer fires, then we assume the CPU is underpowered and ramp to max frequency.
4) Userspace:
Instead of automatically determining frequencies, lets user set frequencies.
5) Powersave:
Locks max frequency to min frequency.
Can not be used as a screen-on or even screen-off (if scaling min frequency is too low).
6) Performance:
Sets min frequency to max frequency.
Use this while benchmarking!
7) SmartassV2:
Version 2 of the original smartass governor from Erasmux. Another favorite for many a people.
The governor aim for an "ideal frequency", and ramp up more aggressively towards this freq and less aggressive after.
It uses different ideal frequencies for screen on and screen off, namely awake_ideal_freq and sleep_ideal_freq.
This governor scales down CPU very fast (to hit sleep_ideal_freq soon) while screen is off and scales up rapidly to awake_ideal_freq (500 mhz for GS2 by default) when screen is on.
There's no upper limit for frequency while screen is off (unlike Smartass).
So the entire frequency range is available for the governor to use during screen-on and screen-off state.
The motto of this governor is another option for balance between performance and battery.
8) Lulzactive:
Basically interactive governor with added smartass bits and variable (as opposed to fixed amout) frequency scaling, based on currently occuring cpu loads.
Like smartass, it has a sleep profile built-in.
9) Lagfree:
Lagfree is similar to ondemand. Main difference is it's optimization to become more battery friendly. Frequency is gracefully decreased and increased, unlike ondemand which jumps to 100% too often. Lagfree does not skip any frequency step while scaling up or down. Remember that if there's a requirement for sudden burst of power, lagfree can not satisfy that since it has to raise cpu through each higher frequency step from current. Some users report that video playback using lagfree stutters a little.
____
So, Governors can be categorized into 3/4 on a high level:
1.a) Ondemand Based:
Works on "ramp-up on high load" principle. CPU busy-time is taken into consideration for scaling decisions.
Members: Ondemand, OndemandX, Intellidemand, Lazy, Lagfree.
1.b) Conservative Based:
Members: Conservative, Lionheart, LionheartX
2) Interactive Based:
Works on "make scaling decision when CPU comes out of idle-loop" principle.
Members: Interactive, InteractiveX, Lulzactive, Luzactiveq, Smartass, SmartassV2, Brazilianwax, SavagedZen.
3) Weird Category:
Members: Userspace, Powersave, Performance.

Any chance of a dual boot setup?
Check out the Devil kernel and recovery for the note 2......
Would be nice to have a slimmed down AOSP ROM and a Sense one for when you wanted it.

I'm not trying to be rude to anyone but let's keep the feature requests to a minimum until he gets the more important aspects worked out. There is a lot of testing going on with just what this kernel can do as we speak. I'm sure once things calm down the other features can be implemented.

Good to see you here @Virus.
I haven't seen you since my EVO days!

i flashed both the stock and oc'd versions of this kernel over joe black's cm9 (which was also clean flashed... even wiped my sd) and wifi isn't working. it flat out won't turn on.
i don't have my tbolt in service anymore, so without wifi, i can't use it at all. wifi worked with the included kernel on joe's cm9 rom.
i'm a little pressed for time at the moment, but if a logcat would be helpful, lemme know and i'll post one when i'm back from vacation at the end of the upcoming week.

Yeah that's a known issue with flashing it seperate.
There's a couple things not included in the kernel zip, that have to be changed Rom side.
These changes are easily made and Joe should have an update posted soon with this kernel in it and the needed Rom files to have WiFi working.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
It's just become known it would work as well as it does.
Fixes and improvements to his Rom and this kernel are coming.
If he doesn't have it up soon, I'll post a patch for using this on his Rom.

When msaa x4 is enabled, the GPU would have to work harder to render the visuals whether it is an app or a game. Some apps are not compatible with this option is ticked and that's why it is disabled by default.

Can i ask u what kernel do u use for this setting ?

Awesome.
I love reading and tweaking ****. Thanks op

Any custom kernel will do. I haven't unlocked my RN3, I tried these settings on my friend's RN3 with Radon kernel. Phone works like a charm!

I think -96 means underclocking. Im not too sure though.

@PoseidonKing
Thanks for the input.
But the question is with what program do you do all that ??
Tested Kernel auditor, Ex kernel auditor.
I would appreciate what program you use.
A greeting.

I use radon kernel and android 7 ~ but i cant find cpu hotplug

because radon doesn't have any hotplug built in it

@PoseidonKing
Intelliplug is not optimized for big.LITTLE architecture based SOCs!
best governors for both performance and battery are interactive ( or interactive based governors , like : cafactive , Ironactive , Blu_active , ... )
there is no voltage control so we can't apply U.V through any app!
GPU Governor : msm-adreno-tz ( with adrenoboost) is the best option.
fiops is best i o scheduler for performance

I think zen i/o is better than row ~

i only can answer second wuestion , its a specific feature of custom kernel which means it may not available on every custom kernel, depends if the dev make it available or not :laugh:
in case u wanna try hotplugging on rn3, try guyver kernel , its available on our xda section :good:
my personal review guyver is the second best kernel for our rn3 , the first is darkness kernel :good:

I think guyver is the best. Much option. Hotplug,governor,i/o. But,its my opinion. Depends on people which one is best.

Battery Life on CAF based kernel/ROM. Android 7.1.2

Please correct me on anything that I'm about to post below. I will correct it ASAP. Here Goes:
Here's what I've noticed since switching from a stock based ROM (Viper 9) with using EX Kernel to LOS 14.1 or AICP 7.1.2.
From what I've researched, these AOSP builds are using a MSM8960 kernel on our apq8064 board. It is also CAF based kernel as well. MSM8960 is very very similar to APQ8064. Which is why it works on our M7. APQ8064 support ended on CAF around ICS/JB days (from what I've skimmed in the CAF changelog). I've been researching different tunables on the interactive gov and the Ondemand gov. I'm trying to find the best settings to extend the battery while on 7.1.2. To me, it just dies too quickly with default gov tunings either on LOS or AICP. I'd like for other users to post their settings and which gov they are using while on 7.1.2. I'll post my settings as soon as I find the right combination on either the interactive gov or the OnDemand gov.
Edit: I've noticed that by disabling MPDecision and disabling at least 2 cores, battery life has improved. What I have been doing when I play a game is re-enabling the other 2 cores and switching to interactive gov for better in-game experience. I also set the min GPU freq. to 400mhz. Another tunable I adjust is the sync freq in the interactive gov. When gaming I set to either 918mhz or 1026mhz depending on how much load the app places on the cpu.
I've also been tinkering with L Speed app (root required as well). Enabling a profile caused my phone to exhibit a faulty touchscreen. Cherry-picking the optimizations I want doesn't have the same effect.

Which ROM supports customizable turntables or what kernel? I don't use ondemand anymore, it's always interactive for the CPU and simple for the GPU on my end.

i use a kernel manager like Kernel auditor or EX Kernel manager to adjust kernel settings. With those to apps you must have root.

Yes I have root, but i'm saying do you have a custom kernel?

technically it is. It supports dt2w and s2w. It was linked from the AICP 12.1 Nougat thread
