[KERNEL][GPL][20 SEP] INK-CM iBFQ minimalistic (old) |||CM stock (updated)

---

It's time for a new kernel on our Nexus S



INK Kernel

Italian Nexus Kernel











It is based on latest CM source and I added:

-SLUB memory allocator
-deadline
-minimal configuration
-iBFQ (intelligent BFQ)

let me explain how iBFQ works

It suites better for your personal use

Are you gaming? Great ---> best performance for heavy apps

Do you have nexus s in standby without a lot of processes in background? OK ---> less CPU cycles wasted so better battery life.

It's far better from all the others I/O schedulers


games always read and write a lot on the memory, simply imagine all audio clips, cutscenes, texts, description of scenes, saving data games for game maintenance, statistics and logs.




I unchecked in the config some debug options and unnecessary govs and schedulers to have a lighter and more powerful kernel.

it's not gonna be an all in one kernel, I let join the project only the features that I think they are good (suggestions however are well accepted).

My suggested settings are:
Interactive 100/1200
BFQ

A passional Italian heart for your Nexus S (linaro optimized)

Download-------> INK (old custom kernel 09-01)



*CyanogenMod stock kernel it's the stock CM kernel from latest sources for those who want updated to wed 19 sept 2012 (last commit of Kalimocho as of now)

Welcome to the Nexus S

I'd love to try this new Kernel but I can't seem to download it, at least not on my phone, box is always crap on mobiles.
