Special thanx for @urgali , @Sungfive and @Duncan1982 for testing .
@Cybertron™ for new thread and signature images.

@Saber for his superb thread with all detailed kernel stuff.


Short Feature list:

Basic Governors plus:

Darkness, Nightmare, Alucard, Impulse, Blu Active

Overclocked both clusters

Adjustable thermal driver

Power Efficient Workqueues

State Notifier Driver

I/o schedulers: fiops, sio, zen, maple

Adrenoboost

Adreno Idler

Simple gpu algorithm

Backlight dimmer

Kacal control

Power Suspend driver

USB Fast Charge

Eagle DTS driver

Built in Busybox


Uses a simple free and user friendly application called Synapse by @AndreiLux for configuration purposes(slightly adding more functionality)

Synapse is included in zip and flashed by default as a system app.​

Synapse is based on new UKM - Lite version. It does contain less settings than standard version for less advanced users. For those who wish to use full power of Synapse additional UKM zip have to be flashed after Kernel. ​

UKM Full flashable zip download link​

Flashing instructions

1. Flash in recovery no black magic
3. If missing tunables for governors set SElinux to permissive
​

Compatibility list:

LOS Kernel have been tested with official Lineage OS 15.1
PA Test Kernel works with AOSPA and its based on Paranoid Android Kernel Source and all credits belong to Paranoid Android Team.

Wow awesome thx. Running very nice with my suicide squad rom. Awesome fast and smooth. Your kernel has potential keep it up

 

[ryshd296]

Flashed to XenonHD.
Very smooth!

 

[rafciowis1999]

Great kernel.
Keep it up.

 

[dabug123]

I build a kernel and thanks for posting source I see a few govs I will add to my list

I'm bout flash on same.rom, lol

Uhh, something to play with on Nougat!
Good stuff

@yarpiin Have You plans to implement OC?

@yarpiin Have You plans to implement OC?

Hi sorry but no or maybe no :silly: i was thinkin about it but im not a big fan of OC i can OC my PC ( actually higly OCed ) but not mobile chip i think we have enough of cpu power but maybe in future i will change my mind - just for now dont see any strong reason to do it

Good reason.
I think OC will be good but not as default.

Backporting i/o schedulers and governors from newest linux will be great too (mostly cfq, deadline and interactive).

Only request would be sound controls if possible to add from ex kernel or wherever...? Running alacurd and hotplug and it's buttery smooth and awesome battery! Good job with this bro

Will have any chance to make profiles for synapse?

The only OC that is useful for this phone is upping the big cores to 2.26ghz and the little to 1.72ghz. The voltage stays the same so you get a minor speed bump but power draw is identical. This in turn gives slightly better battery life because the phone can go back to idle slightly quicker. Anything higher starts causing the phone to thermal throttle much quicker, well in my case that is.

Also, I see you have implemented hotplugging, as mentioned in many different kernel threads for multiple devices that use big.LITTLE (OP3, S6, etc.) This is uncessary and causes more battery drain while also reducing performance because these cores were designed to go idle when not in use consuming nearly zero energy. Hotplugging makes these cores jump between on and off all the time and lower and higher frequencies because of the way big.LITTLE works which causes massive microstutter and also much higher battery drain.

In the good old S6 days a couple devs tried to implement it but it never worked no matter what they tried. Sultan, one our devs here, makes an amazing custom kernel/ROM combination. He had implemented hotplugging when he first released the kernel but it turned out to not fully work properly and caused extra battery drain and microstutters. He removed it and it fixed all the issues.

Edit: haven't used the kernel yet because cm14.1 is a bugfest so this is just speculation, you could have added a little magic and it performs super well.

I don't believe the hotplug theory, I've used it with and without hotplug on this device and the 6P and when using hotplug it clearly saved battery, by a good shot too! You dint have to use it, that's why u can enable/disable, but I'm sure it saves battery as I've tested with it enabled and disabled two devices with the big.LITTLE setup. And honestly, besides one other kernel that is not in these threads, this is the best kernel I've used to date for the OP3, on CM that is, not stock. I've ran ex, boeffla, all CM kernels and as I mentioned one other not located in these threads and that one and this are damn good, they each have their benefits, and the hotplug def saved battery as I've already passed my regular SOT at 40 percent left. Of course I will test without, but with my previous tests on the 6P the hotplug continuously saved battery. Sometimes it mate cause stutter or slowness, but I have not noticed that on the OP3 as of yet, it hasn't slowed a thing down, and there are 2 hotplug options in this kernel, and the hotplug in the 6P was msm which is not one that's in this kernel. This has two other options, alacurd and autosmp.

OC - as i said if there are solid reasons then yes might think about it . But from theory higher frequency equals higher temp and faster thermal throttling

Hotplugging - never heard about theory that make hotplugging causing more battery drain than keeping all clusters/cores online it is a bit non sense for me. Anyway stock Qualcomm kernels are hotplugged using msm performance and core ctl . As i dont like them they been replaced by custom made hotplugging drivers that are optional you can activate and deactivate driver as you wish

CM14.1 - I was on official and now on RR and havent noticed any major bugs neither small ones , they are solid enough to be a daily drivers
