Development [Kernel][16.08.2022][Android 13.0.0]Kirisakura 4.1.0 for Pixel 6/Pro aka "RAVIOLE"
- Thread starter Freak07
- Start date
Sorry, yes, completely stock. I actually replaced one 6 pro thinking it was caused by a bigger problem.
Thanks for the quick reply. I've tested it multiple times, even on fresh install. It's been stuck on this loading screen for roughly 5 minutes now. Seems to do it after you restart multiple times back-to-back. I'm going to see if I can replicate it consistently. I'm curious if other users are experiencing the same thing?
Yes, it should work just fine. Use either the latest kernel.zip or if you follow the manual route make sure to patch the provided boot.img with latest magisk canary.
However there seem to be quite a few users running into issues with verity on this forum and device. Not only when flashing kernels, but also in the guide threads. If you´re a bit unsure I´d only flash it if you have a PC nearby to flash a factory image to be able to recover and have a backup of your data ready.
If it´s stuck for 5 minutes something else is wrong and it´s not due to the factors I mentioned earlier. I haven´t run into this issue at all, so something else might be screwed up if that happens regularly.
Just tried 6 consecutive reboots and everything is working just fine.

I've factory reset and so far I've only seen it once now. I'll post again if it continues to do it. However, I think it's working well now. Thanks again.
thanks for the reply. I have tried it and got the same issue mentioned here, that's weird
Is it possible to implement dt2w feature at kernel side? I don't think that single tap to wake, which is default on Pixel, is right solution.

This kernel is working really well for me. Battery life is excellent, the phone is responsive and runs smooth.
I'm looking forward to the next release.
Thanks @Freak07 for all your work. It's appreciated

Food for thought any idea about the charging limiting
The pixel could do a 1hour charge if the limit didn't kick in halfway
The pixel could do a 1hour charge if the limit didn't kick in halfway
Yes, to fix for me on standard firmware was to disable Adaptive battery under battery settings, never saw the issue again after this. definitely haven't seen it with this Kernel even with that enabled.
What made you leave proton to come back on Pixel release? Bro? Isn't proton technically better performance and battery life?
I never had issues with stock, and still don't.
I just wanted to try ProtonAOSP out. It was a little quicker at opening apps, but not enough built in customization for me, plus I had an email bug with it that caused me to have to open emails twice to read them.
I'll wait for crDroid instead.
Are you guys having complete loss of touch until you turn the screen off and back on and touch is restored?

Again, you are reading from old instructions. Manual installation of the kernel is no longer supported.3
Second post, first question in the FAQ.So, how can I safely go back to stock then? Sorry for my ignorance, I'm tryna do my best

There isn't a separate module anymore since he includes it in the kernel. That quote is from old instructions.

42Update to 4.1.0
Hey guys and girls,
I hope everyone started into a good week. Here´s the next release. It´s for stable Android 13.
Thanks to Google releasing the kernel source for the previews and the betas I´m able to push this update out very quickly. As in the past, the code didn´t change between last beta and stable release.
There are again a lot of changes in this release. I´ll try to keep the release post short as I don´t have that much time lately.
FHD/1080P Support for Pixel 6 Pro
The biggest change is FHD support for the Pixel 6 Pro. If you follow twitter you might have seen this tweet from @MishaalRahman.
Instead of using the display driver that´s supposedly for the Pixel 7 Pro, FHD support was added to the Pixel 6 Pro display driver. There were a few obstacles to make it run properly on the Pixel 6 Pro, but I got it working nicely so far. If anyone has more experience than me regarding panel timings, display drivers etc, feel free to push any improvement as a pull request to my github or point me towards any improvement.
As a result you can now select 1080p resolution from settings after flashing the kernel. Dynamic refresh rate works, brightness scaling works, no tints, colour shifts or contrast issues either. AOD has a 1080p Low-Power timing as well.
You´ll find a few more infos with a short video on my tweet here:
It´s perfectly usable on a daily basis so far. I ran it for a few days without issues on my end. While the advantage might be debatable (saving battery, less load on GPU, still needing to drive the same amount of pixels in the end even on lower resolution, etc etc) having options is nice and this is why I decided to ship it.
Apps need to redraw after switching resolution, sometimes 1080p on big display size selected in settings the UI looks a bit sketchy. So I think Google is still working on that.
There´s however one bug I found so far that makes me believe this is still very much a WIP from google. If having the "show current refresh rate" option from dev settings enabled while switching resolutions, the display will black out and a restart needs to be forced by keeping the power button pressed or using adb interface to restart the phone. This is not due to the kernel, but display settings in framework getting scrambled as it´s not yet implemented 100% on googles end. So be warned.
MM Subsystem Rework
MM subsystem was completely reworked including many improvements from linux-mainline. During this MGLRU was also reworked a bit and works better now. I´ll include links to a few of the improvements/patchsets in hide-tags below, if you´re interested beyond that please check out my github.
links:
Additionally tie in a few of the MM changes into the powerhal. For example Proactive compaction is more aggressive during screen-off/device suspended operations to improve long term-performance.
Other changes:
Also tune the powerhal and implement all A13 changes, according to the changes that were already present on A12.
Latest changes from f2fs-stable are included, which include several bugfixes and small improvements.
Binder improvments/fixes, scheduler improvements from kernel/common, performance for exfat formatted storage device improved (niche use case, but still nice) and other little improvements.
For other changes and details please take a look at github.
I wish everyone a nice day.
If you´re one of the unfortunate ones that suffer from the device is corrupt bug on pixel 6 series please take a look at the FAQ at the beginning of this thread it contains a solution. The issue is probably caused by a bug that affects pixel 6 devices and has nothing to do with magisk or a kernel, it just happens to get triggered when using any of those.
Changelog:
- Rebase kernel fully on A13 trees
- Linux-Stable bumped to 5.10.136
- FHD/1080p support for Pixel 6 Pro
- all previous features and improvements kept intact
- bump f2fs-stable to latest available
- rework mm subsystem (check git for more details)
- scheduler improvements
- binder improvements from kernel/common
- improve exfat performance (if someones uses exfat formatted devices)
- loads of other changes from kernel/common
- update powerhal to account for a13 changes and port existing changes over
- loads of other changes, please check github

if you want to know if it´s safe to flash the A13 stable factory image over A12 firmware with this kernel installed, yes it is since it replaces everything.Probably not since @Freak07 was supporting the Stable Android version only, and not Android 13 Beta. Now that 13 is Final, I'd just wait.
But perhaps someone who enjoys risk more than me these days will test the theory!
if you want to know if the A12 kernel runs on A13, it won´t.10Perfect timing. Just updated to 13 stable a minute ago, and saw the update get posted. Flashed and working so far. Thanks again!
Enjoy the ride and happy tinkering/testing 
unfortunately no.
[Kernel][16.08.2022][Android 13.0.0]Kirisakura 4.1.0 for Pixel 6/Pro aka "RAVIOLE"
Kirisakura-Kernel for the Pixel 6/Pro Hello...
forum.xda-developers.com
And the other feature is something google needs to implement to the framework/nanohub rather than kernel. So you already answered that yourself...
Should work on latest beta just fine too.
No, ideally i want everybody to read the release post and check the thread here.
Should work fine with flags left enabled thanks @roirraW "edor" ehT for confirmation!
I guess it doesn't have a big impact on battery life, but maybe a rather slight one.
However it might be interesting during gaming or similar usage.
You're absolutely correct. Rendering on/using lower resolution will produce a less sharp output on the panel.
Some people will notice it more than others, just like some people notice the difference between 60, 90 and 120hz on the panel more than others. As usual it's also due to usage. If you're looking at a lot of text, use a rather low DPI setting you're probably more likely to notice a difference.
It's not just "rendering" at a lower resolution on 1080p setting though. It's possible to use wm size command in terminal to render on 1080p resolution while keeping the panel itself running on the 1440p setting.
While the setting available by flashing the kernel does both, screen content is rendered at 1080p and panel itself runs on 1080p too.
You're correct. I noticed that too during testing, but forgot to mention it. It's how google implemented the feature in the framework at the moment. Can't change this behaviour via the kernel.
Don't consider it a bug at the moment, but rather a safety measure. If you manage to somehow autostart an app (hypothetical scenario), that crashes the phone on boot while using the 1080p setting you can get out of the loop without a PC.
Like I said earlier, in my eyes the feature itself is not finalized yet, so I'm curious if that will really ship on launch on pixel 7 pro. -
104Kirisakura-Kernel for the Pixel 6/Pro
Hello everyone,
To keep it short: Here is Kirisakura - Kernel for the Google Pixel 6 Pro aka Raven and the Pixel 6 aka Oriole, together Raviole.
I would appreciate if everybody that flashes the kernel, reads at least once through this opening post and the following ones.
The kernel aims to keep most of the subsystems updated, way ahead of the stock kernel, thereby improving security, stability and performance!
This includes Linux-Stable, F2FS-Stable and kernel/common!
If that got you curious, have a read about linux-stable and why it is important here. The stable-process is not the same for every subsystem, but the general idea, rule of thumb and benefits are applicable for other subsystems as well.
The kernel includes a lot of improvements and contributions from other developers as well. Without this kernel would not exist.
A big part of improvements originate from @arter97´s, @kdrag0n´s and @Sultanxda´s work. Many others contributed in some way or another to this kernel.
A big thanks to all of them at this place!
Now lets continue with a list of features in the next paragraph!
Features:

Requirements
- unlocked Bootloader
- USB-Debugging in developer options enabled
- latest adb and fastboot binaries
- working adb and fastboot environment so you can flash back to stock in case something goes wrong
- working magisk environment (a device rooted with latest magisk stable in case you want to be absolutely safe)
How to flash the Kernel:
1a. Make sure you tick all the requirements above
1. Download the correct kernel.zip depending on your device (Pixel 6 = oriole || Pixel 6 Pro = raven)
2. Flash the correct kernel.zip via EXKM, FKM or kernel flasher. Root will be preserved. The AK3 magisk helper module will be automatically installed during flashing the kernel.zip and be present on next reboot.
Do not remove or disable the AK3 Magisk Helper Module otherwise the device will bootloop.
3. Reboot and profit.
Manual installation is no longer supported starting with release 3.0.0, as there´s a free open-source option to flash kernel.zips now.
Instead use the free kernel flasher, which can be found here.
Manual installation without relying on paid apps like fkm/exkm:

Hey guys and girls,
I hope everyone started into a good week. Here´s the next release. It´s for stable Android 13.

Hey guys and girls,
So here´s the next update. It´s kind of an off schedule update, as I planned to update the kernel with the next security update/feature drop.
But in the light of recent events regarding the new exploit called "Dirty Pipe" (more info here), which is similar to the "Dirty Cow" exploit from a while ago, but easier to exploit this time, I decided to release an update ahead of schedule.
This exploit was fixed in linux-stable 5.10.102, as opposed to a single commit in AKC (android kernel common, commit here). This shows once more why merging linux-stable is beneficial as explained in detail in the OP.
Since one of the key aspects of this kernel is security and staying on par with upstream (which often fixes exploits way ahead of android security bulletin updates, even before an exploit is even known or fixed via a patch on the security bulletin) I decided to release this update as quickly as possible, so this exploit is fixed on devices running this kernel.
Several other notable improvements and changes in this release:
Bring in scheduler updates from Android 13 Developer Preview, which aim at improving task placement. (adjust powerhal accordingly)
BFQ IO-Sched is now on par with linux-mainline.
Several fixes to mm subsystem, f2fs and others.
Several other improvements are included as well. More details in the changelog.

Hey guys and girls,
So here´s the next update. It includes the february security update. Most of the changes brought by the February kernel source drop, were already included in this kernel by merging kernel/common and linux-stable.
Several other notable improvements and changes in this release:
Improve f2fs performance by merging a patchset to prevent writer starvation for the checkpoint thread. This was discussed this month in the f2fs mailing list and is already merged to the kernel/common tree. It´ll improve performance under heavy I/O utilization.
You can find more information following the discussion here.
Necessary backports were brought to the kernel and the platform specific f2fs-implementation was also adjusted.
Latest f2fs-stable was also merged to the kernel.
Update the patchset to prevent frequency spikes caused by small tasks as well. Tie those new changes into the powerhal. (That means users not flashing the kernel.zip, but instead use the manual installation method, which are only a handful from the download count, need to flash the updated magisk helper module. Users that flash the kernel.zip via FKM/EXKM have to just flash and forget)
Several other improvements are included as well. More details in the changelog.
Download is below.
Updated instructions in the OP!

- February Security update merged
- linux-stable 5.10.96
- include latest f2fs-stable

If you´re coming from another kernel restore stock boot.img, dtbo.img, vendor_boot.img and vendor_dlkm.img before flashing. Thank you.36Update to 2.1.0
Hey guys and girls,
Alright here´s the next update. And it´s again a really big update!
A few weeks ago google pushed a backport of Multi-Gen LRU for the 5.15 kernel to their aosp/kernel common branches. I went ahead and backported that to our 5.10 tree alongside other mm-improvements from linux-mainline. By now google pushed their own backport for 5.10, but I decided to go with my original implementation as it contains a lot more improvements alongside the main Multi-Gen LRU backport and ran stable for well over 3 weeks.
Powerhal was adjusted quite significantly too. CPU-freqs are restricted to 1.1GHZ max during screen off/device idle operations to save more power. App launches and camera operation are improved as well in the powerhal. General usage benefits from those changes too.
Latest linux-stable, f2fs-stable and kernel/common were merged as well.
Users that decide to not use the CleanSlate features and don´t install the apps won´t see the kernel parsing for the config files extensively.
Vibration Booster from CleanSlate was improved as well to kind of counter the weaker haptic feedback since the March update. Please check the linked thread from the changelog. Huge thanks to @tbalden for this. If you want to give a little bit back consider purchasing the apps via playstore or maybe a small donation.
I´ll keep the warning as to preferably using magisk stable to avoid potential issues as well here in this post.
Please note that 24305 works fine for me though on non beta, stable April firmware!
Important:
Make sure you´re being rooted with magisk 24300 stable before flashing the kernel if you´re unsure. Any magisk version above 24303 might potentially lead to a reboot back to bootloader since android 12.1.0 and A12L QPR3 Beta. At the moment this only affects canary, but I put the warning just in case this will not get resolved in upstream magisk in time until the next stable drops. I saw a post that some modules also have problems with latest canary, so there´s a lot going on at magisk´s side at the moment.
A post containing a short write-up how to "downgrade" magisk can be found following this link.
