I checked the flash script,
because this kernel support SuperSU by default,
magisk not compatible with it.

Then how we can flash your kernel with magisk?

I will consider add magisk and superSU support in the next version.

thanx & will wait for next version. Thank you.

 

[Devries]

thanx & will wait for next version. Thank you.

Finally I found that integrated both SuperSU and magisk is impossible,
the only one way to support magisk is removing SuperSU support in ramdisk,
but I do not want to other flash script change my ramdisk especially fstab,
so I consider do not support magisk, sorry.

but all of other kernels supported by both SuperSu & Magisk. Even you can take help from them.
Else you want to make it only with SuperSu then its ok. But thanx for your response. Good day.

They support both SuperSu & Magisk because they do not integrated anything in their kernel, you can flash SuperSu & Magisk manually,
But I integrated SuperSU because I do not want other flash script change fstab.

you mean if i flash magisk manually then will it support with your kernel? Because last time i tried to install magisk manully after flashing your kernel but it was giving error in TWRP.

F2FS is not perform good as EXT4 on S8, Is this true? And does AQF7 kernel can flash with older version rom and boot loader? Thanks a lot!

It's not the main reason that my kernel do not support F2FS. S8 TouchWiz HAL layer do not compatible with F2FS, enable it in userdata will introduce some stability issue.
It's no problem and I will update kernel to QG5.
