Dorimanx Kernel for SGII-I9100
Supporting 5 ROM Platforms!

Dori-Power.jpg


My kernel was based on SiyahKernel 4.0 long time ago in other realty,
Kernel Tree is 3.12.rc6-R101, + Samsung JB updates + my tweaks and lots of tuning!


Thank you Gokhanmoral for your great work in the past!


Warning!!!

Do not install this kernel on any Android version lower than 4.1.Y
Do a Nandroid Backup of your ROM before first try it! just in case
Constant OC will drain more battery! use low speeds on screen off! min 200/100 max 800
CPU will shutdown in case of over-volt or under-volt so be careful
I'm no responsible for any hardware damage or system corruption that can happen after using this kernel,
you are using this kernel from your own will and accept any responsibility by using it.
If you install this kernel your warranty will be void!


Of course you can be relaxed, I'm trying every release on my phone several hours before of release it so,
if something wrong, i will get the damage first, you get a tested and tuned working kernel...



« Thread rules

« Which kind of posts are allowed in this thread?

  • Report of bugs after test it personally and including the proper log (Please refer to the Voku's guide of How to report bugs for further information about logs.)
  • Feedback that could genuinely helps to the development of the kernel, for example tests of a new feature including a complete explanation, documentation and results.
  • Requests of new features for the next versions of the kernel with the proper explanation of why you expect to see it and why do you think that will be an improve to the kernel.

« Which kind of posts are not allowed here and belongs only to the discussion thread?

  • Battery life related, which include: Discussion of battery life, statistics of your battery life, screenshots about your configuration, your configuration itself (with the intention of help another users)
  • Reports of SOD if you undervolt / overclock your phone
  • General discussion about settings of the kernel, which include: Governors, schedulers, I/O, dual-boot, etc.
  • Requests of new features for the next versions of the kernel without the proper explanation of why you expect to see it and why you think that will be an improve to the kernel.
  • Bug reports with the proper attachments like logcat and kernel log (This is the exception, you can post it here and in the development thread, again, only with the log attached, otherwise the report will be ignored), please refer to the voku's guide of How to report bugs for further information about logs.
  • Deep sleep issues. Mostly of this issues are not kernel dependent, the rogue apps cause wakelocks and other weird behavior so, the first suggestion will be go to the BBS (Better Battery Stats) thread, install the app, and drop the log in there but as complement you can expose your issue here.

Kernel 5.84


*VOKU and me, we restored function that check DATA + CACHE file system before boot, for errors and damaged blocks and more.
it's can be requested for one time run by user via extweaks misc tab.
DO NAN DROID BACKUP VIA RECOVERY BEFORE ANY ATTEMPT TO USE IT! (if your phone will not boot, and you don't have backup, don't blame me for that)
If your data has allot of corrupted files. then first boot with this kernel will take longer! do not panic. let it work.
no more than 10MIN, if still no boot, then you need to restore your nand backup and never use this function!
your hardware is not ready for DATA partition clean up. forget it.
you will get new file /log-data and /log-cache
after boot you can check if you had any errors in data or cache.
To activate just "push the ATOMIC button :)" or push again to ABORT!
function will work after reboot, and never again, till requested by user.
If you do nan droid backup and then restore it, you restore all the errors and junk with it. (just for the info)



Goals for next builds:

  • Debug and find more code errors! (always something new)
  • Add cool features and tweaks
  • Extend battery life.
  • Boost performance.

« Installation

  • Download the file
  • Place it on your SD card
  • Reboot into recovery
  • Flash the file
  • Reboot

In case of a new installation on a non rooted or non recovery device:

You can Download ODIN 3.04 attached to page.

  • Reboot to Download mode (Hold Power + Home + Vol down, then vol up when you see the download menu)
  • Connect USB, wait until the drivers be installed
  • Install kernel via ODIN, choosing the option PDA, search for the file that you downloaded and push start
  • If all going fine the phone will reboot and you done

GESTURES!

Here you can download the app to set the gesture_set.sh script to make your own gestures.


*Added gestures script that connected with cortex and can be managed by user and system in harmony! :)

The script is located at /data/gestures_set.sh do not move it, if you have already any gestures scripts in init.d delete them and move your custom stuff to this script.

It will work with the screen on, and be shut on screen off, to get rid of one more loop that wait forever, we dont need it on screen off! So i give you 5 preconfigured gestures! max supported is 10! max finger touches supported also 10.

Script will be copied to data if not exist on boot, if exist then, nothing. You can shut this function in STweaks or restore to default gestures if you mess with it :)

On restore you will get backup of your current running file at /data/gestures_set.sh.bkp + gesture_set.sh.sec just in case.

Kernel Info about Tweaks / Mods


Here I will post about things that exist in kernel
.


First of all here are some guides made by VOKU also developer for this kernel.

Android: How to report bugs

How to use "ADB" - Command Line Tool



You get ZRAM SWAP.


In short, it's compressed RAM, that by using our mighty CPU compress 150MB of Real RAM into 300MB ZRAM!

This is simple math:
we have 848MB RAM, + 300ZRAM - 150 Needed for ZRAM = 1GB RAM :)

You can see it work by entering terminal app, or connection by ADB
And type:

free

you will see this..
Code:
root@android:/ # free
             total         used         free       shared      buffers
Mem:        848164       801800        46364            0        13456
-/+ buffers:             788344        59820
Swap:       292968        23420       269548
in SWAP filed you see it exist and works!

Also there is one more advanced check :)

type:

su
zram_stats

you get:

Code:
127|root@android:/ # zram_stats
Swaps Status
Filename                                Type            Size    Used    Priority

You see 3 ZRAM swaps each 100MB and they work in load balance!
All filled/released in one push, it's fully auto! it's will help on heavy RAM load!

==================================================================

Touch Recovery:

Made by ELITE DEVELOPER Gokhanmoral!
I have added tweaks and my configurations.

You can move in menu by finger, and by pushing arrows at the bottom, also hard keys work.

You can have 2 ROMS installed in one phone :)
See menu and check for full instruction on Developer Thread!

You can backup and restore / format / mount / install from ZIP / or from zImage!

You can set / reset your kernel profiles

there are 3:

Battery saver: reduced performance, but long battery life.
Default: normal performance, normal battery life
Performance: Boosted allot for performance, but faster drain of battery.

In order to use performance profile and not to drain your battery too much,
you need to set profiles in any app for CPU tweaking, that can give you profiles for:
Screen ON
Screen OFF
ON CALL
ON LOW Battery.

For screen ON you can use Full OC (200-1500) and have fun.
On Screen OFF: use 200-800/1000 speed
On Call use: 200-800 to save power.
On low battery use 200-1000/800/500 as you like..

================================================

You get tuned SQLite for CM9 or PURE ICS ROMS.

Its set to reduce the "sync command" when writing and reading tables in apps and system data.

So it's will "sync" on finish write, and not every small operation that its doing.
By this, read/write ( I/O) performance boosted allot!

If you install any other kernel after my, the sqlite will remain in ROM till ROM will be replaced.

================================================



More to be added later.



22/7/12 time 19:00
Kernel 1.0 -> 5.2

Code:
*Restored lot's of code that i and voku ported, to restore stability,  much from that code was exp, so it's moved to EXP branch, i will test it  offline.
*Changes to cortex for stability, see git.
*Messed with profiles save, should be ok now.
*Improved stability!
*Improved performance!
*Updated to 3.0.38!
*Fixed GPS
*Added wifi supplicant tuning to extweaks and to cortex.
*Added FIX for Korean GPS
*Added BT fix for SAMMY 4.0.4 ROMS by  Gokhanmoral! TNX!
*More code porting for better deepsleep! and network fixes.
*Tuned hyper gov and renamed to HYPER!
*Updated to Samsung Update 5 + 6
*Lots of changes to TVOUT driver, it's may now work on custom roms!
*Removed ondemand, HYPER is the same gov but more advanced!
*Fixed intellidemand now it's stable.
*Ported more code fixes from 3.5-rc7
*Added new tweaks in extweaks and converted many to checkboxes.
*More patches to WIFI driver.
*Battery life improved allot! thanks to code changes that put more drivers to sleep!
*Removed KSM and ZCACHE from config, ZCACHE is damaged after merging  with kernel 3.5-rc7 and KSM eat battery and dont really help. no big  change in performance, still fast and smooth. (zcache no longer used in  3.x.x so we disable it too) 
*Kernel is stable! 2 days with full cortex and performance profile.
*Updated to 3.0.37!
*I have ported lots of code changes from kernel 3.5-rc7 (about 2000+ code lines changed)
all about file system and cache memory and compression.
*VOKU has ported lots of new code for process control and kill + memory control. from 3.1.Y
*Fixed wakeup booster, it's more smart!, now i boost the freq to max but with your GOV not with performance, and add +25mV to all steps for time that wakeup booster works, then it's will set speed to normal and reduce voltage by -25 and all will be as you set.
*Cleaned code from unused functions.
*Extended light sensor and battery sensor pulling time, to reduce battery use, and CPU use (done by voku)
*Tuned voltage for HIGH steps 1000 --> 1500 added more +25mV each. for stability.
*Fixed the Touch keys timeout stuck at 5 sec. now should obey your settings.
*Added check if cortex background process is OFF or ON for real.
*Added new GOVs intellidemand and wheatley they are good for battery save, and can be fast if tuned via setcpu app! or they SLOW by default but very smart.
*Fixed all GOVS code about idle time statistics and wait for IDLE, should help reduce battery drain.
*Restored some define values to default, this small things can make big problems, we made some changes to them without fully understanding if it's OK or may damage some thing, like front camera!
*Kernel size is FULL, 8.10MB so very soon i will have to cut some tuning to gain more room for code changes...
*Fixed BLN still ON after main BLN switch off!
*Fixed small bug in kernel optimization.
*Tuned brightness for simple auto brightness (modded by VOKU)
*Improved stability and performance.
*File system corruption protection. by using FSYNC function to sync all changes to file system more often.
Added extweaks MISC option to disable the FSYNC to get little more performance, but reduce to less safe from damage file system (DEFAULT for all KERNELS!) this function is external! option will be updated only on reboot! not as you set it.
*Removed cortex background process for default and battery profiles, so user can use it or not. see extweaks, (without cortex, wake up booster + sleep gov change + dynamic GOV modding will not work!) for some ROMS, it's GOOD! since they get SOD all day with cortex ON, so try without, if OK, try with, if OK, have fun, if SOD, disable again.
It's ON for performance profile!
*Battery life improved.
*Added code fix that reduce CPU usage on idle to 1~15% on 100Mhz! was 15~30% now more battery will be saved.
*Rebuilded the root add/remove now it's used as buttons. install , remove , check
*Retuned Touch screen CODE, screen will not stuck now, 70% of SOD, not really stuck the phone, it's only the screen stuck! via adb i see that all OK! and system working as was, so now problem is fixed!
*New code fix for WIFI, now if not used and disabled in ROM, driver will cut power to WIFI chip! till now it's was still idle and drained power. not any more 
*Finally i made my kernel STABLE! no more SOD and great battery life!
I have reverted from Linaro 12.06 GCC 4.7.1 builder to Android GCC 4.3 builder
that used to build all ROM and Default kernels!
So no more SOD! and battery is 1.1%/h -15mA :)
*Added more fixes to code from FLUXI kernel, TNX Myfluxi!
*Set 15 CPU freq steps for all profiles and removed settings to change it, there are many code trigers that depend on 15 freq steps, so best to have all for all profiles, then reduce the MAX freq to what needed, (already set)
*if you have added any INIT.D scripts that mess with my settings, REMOVED THEM, then test my kernel,
For some phones to low settings will always kill the phone,
I am asked all people that post INIT.D scripts in this thread, STOP/REMOVE. keep them to your self. thanks.

bln tab:
SWITCH to turn of BLN!
SWITCH to turn ON led lights on touch! it's use the led time out!
Fixed BLN test button.
cpu tab:
SWITCH to turn on/off wakeup booster and set the boost delay!
*Reverted last USB code update from NOTE, found that driver stuck after long charge and we can get to storage via USB, we have SG3 driver, so to mix them probably bad idea,
*Restored CPU code that needed for SAMMY rom stability to prevent SOD, so i hope it's will be ok now.
*Small fixing and cleaning. see  GIT's

*Voku helped allot! he added lots of code fixing and updates to filesystem drivers and memory.
*Added new button at extweaks for checking current gps zone config.
*if you like to fix permissions, just push the button at extweaks misc and turn off the screen! fix will begin instantly! if you really need the phone, use it, but best to let it work top 2~3 min, depending on amount of mess and installed apps, it's done my 450 apps in 2 min :)
*we tuned profiles and voku added new stuff to conservative gov! so it's now the most saving battery gov! try it only for deepsleep (screen of gov)
it's slow, but this is what we need! less activity more battery!
*Vibrate should be OK now.
*now if phone is over 50c heat, and you turn off and on the screen. it's will auto drop to 1Ghz and to hotplug gov to cool off..
after temp will drop, and you turn screen on/off all your extweaks settings will be active again! so if was oc to max then you get it back :)

kernel compressed with zlo the lowest compression for max speed.
so its was to big to fit the boot partition, i had to move the modules out of kernel.
so from version 2.3 you cant update via tar and odin.
so use recovery only.
or update the supplied modules to /system/lib/modules/
if you install via recovery, nothing needs to be done.
in case of emergency use 1.1 kernel in tar, then go to recovery and update to 2.X :)

*Added fix for cpu stats and stalls(hangs).
*New WIFI driver + lots of changes to it already.
*support for NTT-Docomo variant (you will need to “echo 16 >  /proc/sys/kernel/rom_feature_set” to get gps working.

ZRAM (aka CompCache aka RAMZSwap)

ZRAM is an updated version formally known as CompCache and RAMZSwap. It was originally designed for 2.6.38.xx kernels, I have backported to our 3.0.xx kernel. ZRAM allows real-time compression of memory objects in RAM thus reducing memory pressure for the Linux kernel and can keep more apps in memory longer (more apps in RAM == better performance, less fetching from slower MMC or SDCard). Compression, however, is not Free. Some CPU cycles are required to do the compress/decompression, so there's a slight penalty for it. The original CompCache / RAMZSwap required a user space binary to control its behavior which adds additional penalty to performance, but the new version ZRAM eliminated the need for a separate dedicated daemon, thus reducing the overhead and increased performance from the old CompCache by 20%. Therefore, with the newer implementation of ZRAM interface, the performance penalty is almost negligible.

Info about Cortexbrain-tune.sh and more!

# ==============================================================
# Logic Explanations
#
# This script will manipulate all the system / cpu / battery behavior
# Based on chosen EXTWEAKS profile+tweaks and based on SCREEN ON/OFF state.
#
# When User select battery/default profile all tuning will be toward battery save!

# ==============================================================
# Explanations
# ==============================================================
#

# oom_kill_allocating_task: If this is set to zero, the OOM killer will scan through the entire tasklist and select a task based on heuristics to kill.
#
# This normally selects a rogue memory-hogging task that frees up a large amount of memory when killed.
# If this is set to non-zero, the OOM killer simply kills the task that triggered the out-of-memory condition.
# This avoids the expensive tasklist scan.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/oom_kill_allocating_task;

# dirty_expire_centisecs: This tunable is used to define when dirty data is old enough to be eligible for writeout by the pdflush daemons.
#
# It is expressed in 100'ths of a second. Data which has been dirty in memory for longer than this interval will be written
# out next time a pdflush daemon wakes up.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs;

# dirty_writeback_centisecs: The pdflush writeback daemons will periodically wake up and write "old" data out to disk.
#
# This tunable expresses the interval between those wakeups, in 100'ths of a second.
# Setting this to zero disables periodic writeback altogether.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs;

# drop_caches: Writing to this will cause the kernel to drop clean caches, dentries and inodes from memory, causing that memory to become free.
#
# To free pagecache:
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
#
# To free dentries and inodes:
# echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
#
# To free pagecache, dentries and inodes:
# echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

# page-cluster: page-cluster controls the number of pages which are written to swap in a single attempt. The swap I/O size.
#
# It is a logarithmic value - setting it to zero means "1 page", setting it to 1 means "2 pages", setting it to 2 means "4 pages", etc.
# The default value is three (eight pages at a time). There may be some small benefits in tuning this to
# a different value if your workload is swap-intensive. (default 3)
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/page-cluster;

# laptop_mode: laptop_mode is a knob that controls "laptop mode". When the knob is set, any physical disk I/O
#
# (that might have caused the hard disk to spin up, see /proc/sys/vm/block_dump) causes Linux to flush all dirty blocks.
# The result of this is that after a disk has spun down, it will not be spun up anymore to write dirty blocks,
# because those blocks had already been written immediately after the most recent read operation.
# The value of the laptop_mode knob determines the time between the occurrence of disk I/O and when the flush is triggered.
# A sensible value for the knob is 5 seconds. Setting the knob to 0 disables laptop mode.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode;

# rr_interval: rr_interval or "round robin interval". This is the maximum time two SCHED_OTHER (or SCHED_NORMAL, the common scheduling policy)
#
# tasks of the same nice level will be running for, or looking at it the other way around, the longest duration two tasks
# of the same nice level will be delayed for. When a task requests cpu time, it is given a quota (time_slice) equal to the
# rr_interval and a virtual deadline, while increasing it will improve throughput, but at the cost of worsening latencies.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/kernel/rr_interval;

# dirty_background_ratio: Contains, as a percentage of total system memory, the number of pages at which the pdflush background writeback daemon will
# start writing out dirty data.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio;

# dirty_ratio: Contains, as a percentage of total system memory, the number of pages at which a process which is generating disk writes will itself start writing out dirty data.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio;

# iso_cpu: Setting this to 100 is the equivalent of giving all users SCHED_RR access and setting it to 0 removes the ability to run any pseudo-realtime tasks.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/kernel/iso_cpu;

# echo XXX > /proc/sys/kernel/msgmni;

# sem: This file contains 4 numbers defining limits for System V IPC semaphores. These fields are, in order:
#
# SEMMSL - the maximum number of semaphores per semaphore set.
# SEMMNS - a system-wide limit on the number of semaphores in all semaphore sets.
# SEMOPM - the maximum number of operations that may be specified in a semop(2) call.

#
# This gives 0.05s to be used by SCHED_OTHER (non-RT tasks). These defaults were chosen so that a run-away realtime

#
# Memory-Settings
#
# ===============

# swappiness: Swappiness is a parameter which sets the kernel's balance between reclaiming pages from the page cache and swapping process memory.
#
# The default value is 60. If you want kernel to swap out more process memory and thus cache more file contents increase the value.
# Otherwise, if you would like kernel to swap less decrease it. A value of 0 means "do not swap unless out of free RAM",
# a value of 100 means "swap whenever possible".
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness;

# overcommit_memory: Controls overcommit of system memory, possibly allowing processes to allocate (but not use) more memory than is actually available.
#
# 0 - Heuristic overcommit handling.
# Obvious overcommits of address space are refused. Used for a typical system.
# It ensures a seriously wild allocation fails while allowing overcommit to reduce swap usage.
# root is allowed to allocate slighly more memory in this mode. This is the default.
# 1 - Always overcommit.
# Appropriate for some scientific applications.
# 2 - Don't overcommit.
# The total address space commit for the system is not permitted to exceed swap plus a
# configurable percentage (default is 50) of physical RAM. Depending on the percentage you use,
# in most situations this means a process will not be killed while attempting to use already-allocated memory but
# will receive errors on memory allocation as appropriate.

# overcommit_ratio: Percentage of physical memory size to include in overcommit calculations.
#
# Memory allocation limit = swapspace + physmem * (overcommit_ratio / 100)
#
# swapspace = total size of all swap areas
# physmem = size of physical memory in system

# vfs_cache_pressure: Controls the tendency of the kernel to reclaim the memory which is used for caching of directory and inode objects.
#
# At the default value of vfs_cache_pressure = 100 the kernel will attempt to reclaim dentries and inodes at a "fair" rate with respect
# to pagecache and swapcache reclaim. Decreasing vfs_cache_pressure causes the kernel to prefer to retain dentry and inode caches.
# Increasing vfs_cache_pressure beyond 100 causes the kernel to prefer to reclaim dentries and inodes.
#
# echo XXX > /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure;

# min_free_kbytes: This is used to force the Linux VM to keep a minimum number of kilobytes free.
#
# The VM uses this number to compute a pages_min value for each lowmem zone in the system. Each lowmem zone gets a number of reserved
# free pages based proportionally on its size.

# read_ahead_kb: Optimize for read-throughput (cache-value).
#
# example of C-program for finding correct vaules for Linux
# -> http://pastebin.com/Rg6qVJQH
#

# fifo_batch: Controls the maximum number of requests per batch.
#
# This parameter tunes the balance between per-request latency and aggregate
# throughput. When low latency is the primary concern, smaller is better (where
# a value of 1 yields first-come first-served behaviour). Increasing fifo_batch
# generally improves throughput, at the cost of latency variation.

# back_seek_max: This parameter, given in Kbytes, sets the maximum גdistanceג
#
# By default, this parameter is set to 16 MBytes.
# This distance is the amount of space from the current head location to the sectors that are backward in terms of distance.
# This idea comes from the Anticipatory Scheduler (AS) about anticipating the location of the next request.
# This parameter allows the scheduler to anticipate requests in the גbackwardג
nextג

# back_seek_penalty: This parameter is used to compute the cost of backward seeking.
#
# If the backward distance of a request is just (1/back_seek_penalty) from a גfrontג
# the seeking cost of the two requests is considered equivalent and the scheduler will not bias toward one or the other
# (otherwise the scheduler will bias the selection to גfront direction requests).
# Recall, the CFQ has the concept of elevators so it will try to seek in the current direction as much as possible to avoid the latency associated with a seek.
# This parameters defaults to 2 so if the distance is only 1/2 of the forward distance, CFQ will consider the backward request to be close enough
# to the current head location to be גcloseג

# fifo_expire_async: This particular parameter is used to set the timeout of asynchronous requests.
#
# Recall that CFQ maintains a fifo (first-in, first-out) list to manage timeout requests.
# In addition, CFQ doesnגt check the expired requests from the fifo queue after one timeout is dispatched (i.e. there is a delay in processing the expired request).
# The default value for this parameter is 250 ms. A smaller value means the timeout is considered much more quickly than a larger value.

# fifo_expire_sync: This parameter is the same as fifo_expire_async but for synchronous requests.
#
# The default value for this parameter is 125 ms.
# If you want to favor synchronous request over asynchronous requests, then this value should be decreased relative to fifo_expire_asynchronous.

# slice_sync: Remember that when a queue is selected for execution, the queues IO requests are only executed for a certain amount of time (the time_slice) before switching to another queue.
#
# This parameter is used to calculate the time slice of the synchronous queue.
# The default value for this parameter is 100 ms, but this isnגt the true time slice.
# Rather the time slice is computed from the following: time_slice = slice_sync + (slice_sync / 5 * 4 ג io_priority)).
# If you want the time slice for the synchronous queue to be longer (perhaps you have more synchronous operations), then increase the value of slice_sync.

# slice_async: This parameter is the same as slice_sync but for the asynchronous queue.
#
# The default is 40 ms. Notice that synchronous operations are preferred over asynchronous operations.

# slice_asyn_rq: This parameter is used to limit the dispatching of asynchronous requests to the device request-queue in queueגs slice time.
#
# This limits the number of asynchronous requests are executed (dispatched).
# The maximum number of requests that are allowed to be dispatched also depends upon the io priority.
# The equations for computing the maximum number of requests is, max_nr_requests = 2 * (slice_async_rq + slice_async_rq * (7 ג io_priority)). The default for slice_async_rq is 2.

# slice_idle: This parameter is the idle time for the synchronous queue only.
#
# In a queueגs time slice (the amount of time operations can be dispatched), when there are no requests in the synchronous queue CFQ will not switch to another queue
# but will sit idle to wait for the process creating more requests. If there are no new requests submitted within the idle time, then the queue will expire.
# The default value for this parameter is 8 ms. This parameters can control the amount of time the schedulers waits for synchronous requests.
# This can be important since synchronous requests tend to block execution of the process until the operation is completed. Consequently,
# the IO scheduler looks for synchronous requests within the idle window of time that might come from a streaming video application or something that needs synchronous operations.

# quantum: This parameter controls the number of dispatched requests to the device queue, request-device (i.e. the number of requests that are executed or at least sent for execution).
#
# In a queueגs time slice, a request will not be dispatched if the number of requests in the device request-device exceeds this parameter.
# For the asynchronous queue, dispatching the requests is also restricted by the parameter slice_async_rq. The default for this parameter is 4.

# ===============
#
# BFQ-Settings
#
# ===============

# timeout_sync, timeout_async: The maximum amount of disk time that can be given to a task once it has been selected for service, respectively for synchronous and asynchronous queues.
#
# It allows the user to specify a maximum slice length to put an upper bound to the latencies imposed by the scheduler.

# max_budget: The maximum amount of service, measured in disk sectors, that can be provided to a queue once it is selected (of course within the limits of the above timeouts).
#
# According to what we said in the description of the algoritm, larger values increase the throughput for the single tasks and for the system,
# in proportion to the percentage of sequential requests issued. The price is increasing the maximum latency a request may incur in.
# The default value is 0, which enables auto-tuning: BFQ tries to estimate it as the maximum number of sectors that can be served during timeout_sync.

# max_budget_async_rq: In addition to the max_budget, limit, async queues are served for a maximum number of requests, after that a new queue is selected.

# low_latency: If equal to 1 (default value), interactive and soft real-time applications are privileged and experience a lower latency.

Ma sweet home
This is bomb ... Bomb kernel for all ics Rom... see its benchmark...!! Its really a beast of all kernel...

What about zram? How to check and activate..? Till today I cud not get it to work on your pre release kernel... sorry..!! I will wait for it..

thanks! it's nice to be remembered!

My HD2 kernel and ROM still supported by me.
I am now in two fronts :)

Enjoy new power for SG2 :)

I will try to make it best for all to enjoy!

Please report any bugs or suggestions,
I will do my best to add/fix all i can.

what rom do you have?

is it ICS based?

I have tested on CM9, and Original Samsung ICS,

It's configured for MIUI also.. (I didnt tried yet)

    Dorimanx Kernel for SGII-I9100
    Supporting 5 ROM Platforms!

    Dori-Power.jpg


    My kernel was based on SiyahKernel 4.0 long time ago in other realty,
    Kernel Tree is 3.12.rc6-R101, + Samsung JB updates + my tweaks and lots of tuning!


    Thank you Gokhanmoral for your great work in the past!


    Warning!!!

    Do not install this kernel on any Android version lower than 4.1.Y
    Do a Nandroid Backup of your ROM before first try it! just in case
    Constant OC will drain more battery! use low speeds on screen off! min 200/100 max 800
    CPU will shutdown in case of over-volt or under-volt so be careful
    I'm no responsible for any hardware damage or system corruption that can happen after using this kernel,
    you are using this kernel from your own will and accept any responsibility by using it.
    If you install this kernel your warranty will be void!


    Of course you can be relaxed, I'm trying every release on my phone several hours before of release it so,
    if something wrong, i will get the damage first, you get a tested and tuned working kernel...

    Kernel 5.84


    *VOKU and me, we restored function that check DATA + CACHE file system before boot, for errors and damaged blocks and more.
    it's can be requested for one time run by user via extweaks misc tab.
    DO NAN DROID BACKUP VIA RECOVERY BEFORE ANY ATTEMPT TO USE IT! (if your phone will not boot, and you don't have backup, don't blame me for that)
    If your data has allot of corrupted files. then first boot with this kernel will take longer! do not panic. let it work.
    no more than 10MIN, if still no boot, then you need to restore your nand backup and never use this function!
    your hardware is not ready for DATA partition clean up. forget it.
    you will get new file /log-data and /log-cache
    after boot you can check if you had any errors in data or cache.
    To activate just "push the ATOMIC button :)" or push again to ABORT!
    function will work after reboot, and never again, till requested by user.
    If you do nan droid backup and then restore it, you restore all the errors and junk with it. (just for the info)



    Goals for next builds:

    • Debug and find more code errors! (always something new)
    • Add cool features and tweaks
    • Extend battery life.
    • Boost performance.

    « Installation

    • Download the file
    • Place it on your SD card
    • Reboot into recovery
    • Flash the file
    • Reboot

    In case of a new installation on a non rooted or non recovery device:

    You can Download ODIN 3.04 attached to page.

    • Reboot to Download mode (Hold Power + Home + Vol down, then vol up when you see the download menu)
    • Connect USB, wait until the drivers be installed
    • Install kernel via ODIN, choosing the option PDA, search for the file that you downloaded and push start
    • If all going fine the phone will reboot and you done

    GESTURES!

    Here you can download the app to set the gesture_set.sh script to make your own gestures.


    *Added gestures script that connected with cortex and can be managed by user and system in harmony! :)

    The script is located at /data/gestures_set.sh do not move it, if you have already any gestures scripts in init.d delete them and move your custom stuff to this script.

    It will work with the screen on, and be shut on screen off, to get rid of one more loop that wait forever, we dont need it on screen off! So i give you 5 preconfigured gestures! max supported is 10! max finger touches supported also 10.

    Script will be copied to data if not exist on boot, if exist then, nothing. You can shut this function in STweaks or restore to default gestures if you mess with it :)

    On restore you will get backup of your current running file at /data/gestures_set.sh.bkp + gesture_set.sh.sec just in case.

    This is long INFO post from real chip designer that help to create CPU/GPU and other chips for the living for 14 years now, so respect :)

    He sent me PM, for now he cant post that by him self.

    Vikas is monitoring our thread and want to say his professional stand about UV/OV and why it's works for some and why not for others.

    ==================
    I am calling Vikas(vikas.mishra) to the speech stand :)


    Hello people.

    Let me introduce myself - my name is Vikas Mishra and I am a chip designer by profession. .
    I have worked on critical parts of design of TI OMAP4, OMAP5, Nvidia Tegra 3 etc and have been doing this for the last 14 years.
    Of late - I have seen a lot of folks posting BUGS about undervolting of the GPU/CPU.
    I think I can explain what are the possible issues with undervolting/overclocking in a laymans language.

    It is a little long winded but I think the length is needed for providing the appropriate context.

    * What is inside your Cellphone

    Your cellphone is an amazing device. It is a full fledged computer
    that fits into your pocket. They have all the standard components
    that a computer has - except that they are all usually soldered on
    the motherboard directly and are not meant to be user-servicable.

    The chief components inside your cellphone are
    1. Application Processor (AP)- this is the heart of a modern
    cellphone. These are manufactured by many companies - the main
    ones are Qualcomm, Nvidia, Samsung and Apple. The other not so
    well known ones are made by Texas Instruments, ST Ericsson,
    Marvell and Broadcom.

    A modern AP has logic to control the camera and process the image
    that it generates, to do video encoding (video recording) and
    video decoding (movie watching), Audio processor etc. in addition
    to the well known CPU and GPU.

    2. Power Management Controller - This is the chip that is
    responsible for generating and regulating the voltages that are
    used by all the components on the board.

    3. DRAM - not very different from the DRAM found on a PC (except
    that it is lower voltage)

    4. Flash - for storage

    5. Touchscreen controller

    6. Logic for microphone, speaker

    7. Battery

    One of the most complex piece of circuitry on the phone is the AP
    and the power management controller.


    * Circuit Basics

    A modern AP has millions of circuit units called (Flip
    Flops). These flip flops have two parameters associated with them
    called Setup time and Hold time. More details on what a flip flop
    can be found on the wikipedia at
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flip-flop_(electronics) . This is a
    nice bit of bedside reading if you are interested. :)

    A setup time roughly indicates what frequency you can run a design
    or an AP at before it becomes unstable.

    A hold time roughly indicates the maximum voltage till which a
    design is stable.

    A fully technical analysis of what is involved in these timing
    parameters requires a degree in electrical engineering but in broad
    terms the problem is described below.

    Chip designers diligently ensure that all of the millions of the
    flip flops in a chip meet the setup and hold time across a broad
    range of voltages and silicon parameters. They do a pessimistic
    analysis to ensure that a chip will run reliably across a wide
    range of voltage/frequency combinations.

    However, contrary to the popular belief, chips vary widely in their
    silicon parameters. Even chips on a the same wafer and different
    flip-flops within the same chip can have widely different silicon
    parameters. This is why what works on one particular chip will not
    work on the other chip.

    Your silicon manufacturer provides a range of voltages and
    frequencies across which the device can work reliably. The phone
    manufacturer will further narrow down the range depending on the
    other components they choose within the phone board.

    * How does voltage affect the design

    Reducing voltage makes the design slower and increasing voltage
    makes the design faster.

    So can I keep on increasing the voltage for ever and make the
    circuit faster and faster. The answer is no - a point will come when
    the circuit will become unreliable. This becomes unreliable because
    the "hold time" of one or more of the flops will start
    violating.

    As you reduce the voltage of the design, the circuit will start
    becoming slower. However typically it will continue to work till at
    apoint it starts failing - this failure occurs due to violation of
    "setup time" of one or more flops in the design.

    So what happens when the setup time or the hold time of a design
    fails - the answer is that it is unpredictable. Meaning suddenly if
    you ask the processor what is the value of 2+2, the answer it will
    provide could be unreliable - in some cases it could be 3, in some
    cases it could be 4 in some cases it could be -2349783297 (a random number).

    I am of course oversimplifying but I hope you get the picture.

    * How does undervolting affect your phone processor

    The reason undervolting is so appealing to people because they
    thing that undervolting will save power and improve battery
    life. While this is true in theory, in practice there is a caveat.

    It will reduce the power of the chip, but the power consumed by the
    phone as a whole will not improve. In some cases in fact it can
    deteriorate. Let me explain.

    The most power hungry part in the phone is not the AP - it is the
    LCD screen. All of these screens consume a ton of power. So even
    though your AP is now consuming lesser power, the overall impact to
    the phone as a whole is not that much.

    If you accompany undervolting with a frequency reduction (which you
    should), the total time taken for doing a web page rendering (for
    example) would increase. During this time the screen is on and it
    has more than compensated for the power that you saved in the
    AP.

    You could of course come up with examples where this wouldn't
    happen - but on a whole, IMHO, you should leave the voltage of the
    AP/GPU/CPU to the guys who know the system best - the guys who
    designed the chip and people who manufactured it.

    * How does overvolting/overclocking affect your phone processor

    If you want that last drop of performance from your phone and you
    over clock it, at a point some of the design flops will start
    violating the hold time and the design will stop working reliably.

    Again, in some anecdotal cases this would work - but this is not a
    reliable means/mode of working. Just because your friend's or your
    first cousin's girlfriend's phone works - doesn't mean yours will
    work as well.

    * What are the user observable impacts of undervolting/overclocking?

    It is hard to say - simply because there are so many of flops in
    the design.

    In some cases - you wouldn't see anything wrong with the phone
    until one day you do. In some cases it will result in a SOD
    immediately. In some cases it will result in your phone not waking
    up reliably.

    IMHO the risks of issues with undervolting/overclocking far
    outweighthe potential gains you may get out of it. Usually there
    is no lasting damage to the phone/AP if you overlock/undervolt but
    it is possible to do it. For example, You run the phone at such a
    high frequency that the chip temperature becomes more than what it
    was designed for and the Silicon just fails.

    So "Just say No" :). Don't overclock or undervolt your phone -
    leave it to the guys who really understand what they are doing.

    Thanks,
    Vikas

    News update!!!

    Kernels 8.14 + 9.14 ONLINE!

    Kernel is STABLE with good performance + good battery, we worked very hard on this one. (Me and Voku!)


    Change Log:

    *Voku updated Interactive CPU gov and enabled it. (need to test!)
    *Voku updated/Ported many system code and ROW I/O sched tuning.
    *Voku Ported and Tuned and reconstructed new CPU HOTPLUG code,
    it's name is Inteli Hotplug, originally made by Faux123 for his OMAP device.
    this new driver will help to save more power and give us nice performance.
    *Voku Ported 3.0.72+73 Main Stream patch's.
    *Voku Tuned cortex and profiles to mach new drivers.
    *Updated to latest Linaro 13.03 kernel builder.
    *Added new EDS module to allow using EDS paid/lite app to encrypt data on your device, module can be loaded via app or via STweaks.
    *Allowed to use 1450mV for 520Mhz GPU freq.
    *Equalized last CPU chip Voltage table (number 1) to have same CPU voltage as others!
    We have 4 different CPU chips all over the world in same device! now all will have same voltage, this will allow higher OC and better battery save for all.
    *Added +25mv to 1500mhz and 1600mhz for all chips. to give more stability.
    *Updated many CORE and MEM code from 3.9.y kernel.
    *Updated many SYSTEM code from 3.9.y kernel.
    *Updated many CPU and SMP code from 3.9.y kernel.
    *Added auto read ahead tweak, based on sdcard size!
    *Updated INIT boot from latest CM-Kernel for 10.1 based ROMS.
    *Cleaned old standard hotplug settings and script code.
    *Added some STweaks better descriptions in BLN.
    *Limited battery charge mA to 650mA, we cant get more any way, hardware limit! no way to have MORE, so 700mA was actually 650,
    and we can have MIN of 450mA so no need to ask to set lower, it's will not work.

    More can be seen in GIT, for all that love to dig deep :)

    Have fun, and Report = good debug info!

    Thanks!

    do not REPLY to this POST!

    This Kernel is A MAJOR update! i have never done such big update before!
    We need to test all we can.

    Change Log: (i cant write all, it's too much! see gits)

    *Voku ported new CPU GOV = ZZMOOVE it's good gov with HOTPLUG ability's and smart cpu management on sleep and wake.
    for now no controls for it in STweaks, but you can select it.
    *Voku ported new Ultra KSM code from 3.9.Y kernel, it's still in tests, we will see what good we can get from it, read google what is KSM (shared memory control with many apps)
    *Voku tuned the Dynamic CPU freq on touch, seems to work good.
    *Voku ported kernel patch 3.0.74-76 from main stream.
    *Voku ported System code for ARM CPU and system.
    *Voku tuned profiles for interactive GOV and other stuff.
    *Till we can fix slide2wake to be off in call, it's OFF by default in all profiles.
    *Voku ported good patch for Interactive CPU GOV. we need extensive testing.
    *Voku ported updates for ROW and NOOP I/O scheds.
    *I have made FULL sync of all new code for RAM from 3.9.y Kernel. we have all :)
    *I have ported major update to filesystem + kernel main code + lib, from 3.9.y branch. (it's HUGE update!)
    *We have fixed some small bugs in scripts.
    *Voku added function to add DATE and TIME to kernel LOGO on each kernel release! that is very COOL :)
    done by auto on kernel build.

    have fun, report and test all you can,

    RAM performance is now X2 and cpu power is awesome!
    battery is holding longer!

    it's for now great kernel, but need more time to know that this is STABLE release.

    P.S
    if you like my hard work, buy me a beer :) (my beer account is empty :()

    Thanks for waiting :)

    I hope you READY to see the PICKS :)

    HTC ONE X in the TRASH :)

    ==========
    After some more tests i have fixed some more and tuned profiles.

    ALL, please update to 8.16 + 9.16 kernels! (online)

    Change Log:
    *Voku ported Interactive GOV as is from Google Android Kernel 3.4
    *I have reset profiles to not use Interactive as main Default GOV, as it's may be unstable for some users. (profiles will be reset, on boot)
    *I have ported major function update from 3.9.y kernel to fix the Ultra KSM and much more.
    *I have set HZ value to 250 (was 200) it's effect globally on system performance. and it's best default for android.
