Hi @Sultanxda , will you be able to take everything from xenial v5/v6 and merge into sultan? its not actively maintained anymore but is touted as the best kernel for Pixel 2 (especially v5) and unfortunately the source code is lost so no one is working on making it work with android 12. Since your kernel is great and I am most likely going to install it with a12 custom rom can you fold xenial into yours and best bits of kirisakura? I heard blackenedMOD and PK tuning script does wonders for performance, can you look into those too? Thanks in advance!

This is a no-frills custom kernel for the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL designed to be used with the stock ROM and custom Android 11 ROMs. It's intended to be a simple replacement for the stock kernel that brings several under-the-hood enhancements. This kernel is not meant to be customized by users.
Changelogs for each update can be found in the 2nd post of this thread.
Features:
- Full real-time preemption (PREEMPT_RT), which makes the kernel as responsive and stutter-free as possible
- Compiled with GCC 12.1 from the Arch Linux repository
- Built with Link Time Optimization (LTO) for improved overall kernel performance
- Built with Dead Code Elimination (DCE) to shrink the kernel's size by removing unused code
- Removed lots of excessive bloat (improves security and performance)
- Simple LMK, a custom low memory killer that improves memory management
- Optimized CPU frequencies and EAS energy model for improved performance and battery life
- WireGuard, a next generation secure VPN tunnel
- Passes SafetyNet bootloader unlock check
- Improved gaming performance
- Improved overall system fluidity and graphics performance
- Improved stability
- Many other miscellaneous improvements not listed here

Latest kernel3New build is up! It's technically for Android 11, but I know some who have used my kernel on 12 and 13 without any issues.
This build is a very big update since it brings full real-time preemption, also known as PREEMPT_RT. What this does is essentially make the kernel as responsive as possible, eliminating lots of random stutters that just can't be fixed on normal kernels. I spent about 3 months fixing all the bugs I could find with PREEMPT_RT and then optimizing many drivers in the kernel to further improve overall responsiveness. This should be a very smooth kernel. Enjoy!
