  VM tweaks (explained below)

VM Tweaks


dirty ratio and dirty background ratio 1 & 2
This controls how often the kernel writes data to "disk" (in our case the internal microSD system card, not the removable microSD card). When your apps write data to disk, Linux actually doesn't write the data out to the disk right away, it actually writes the stuff to system memory and the kernel handles when and how the data is actually going to be flushed to the disk. These values represent a percentage, the higher the percentage, the longer it waits to flush, the lower the percentage, the more often flushes will occur. Now remember, we are dealing with solid state storage, not the traditional disk platter and spindle. So we are actually able to delay flushes a little longer with solid state versus a traditional hard drive disk.


dirty_expire_centisecs
How old "dirty" data should be before the kernel considers it old enough to be written to disk. It is expressed in 100ths of a second.

dirty_writeback_centisecs
This is the interval of when the writeback daemons periodically wake up and write "old" data out to disk. It is expressed in 100ths of a second.

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. Default is 2048kb.

overcommit_memory
This 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.

Swappiness
A property for the Linux kernel that changes the balance between swapping out runtime memory, as opposed to dropping pages from the system page cache. Swappiness can be set to values between 0 and 100 inclusive. A low value means the kernel will try to avoid swapping as much as possible where a higher value instead will make the kernel aggressively try to use swap space.

VFS Cache Pressure
File system cache (dentry/inode) is really more important than the block cache above in dirty ratio and dirty background ratio, so we really want the kernel to use up much more of the RAM for file system cache, this will increas the performance of the system without sacrificing performance at the application level. The default value is 100, as a percentage, and what you want to do is lower the value to tell the kernel to favor the file system cache and not drop them aggressively.

8/ Enable / Disable Quick Key Reset
- Reboot device quickly by Holding HOME and POWER Key (Disabled by default)

• 
  - Enable
  - Disable

9/ Vendor Options
- Fix for Anzu and Hallon Vendor problem

• 
  - Mount
  - Unmount
  - Backup
  - Restore

Show your support for the kernel and my work by putting this in your signature, its only a quick one I done up with my limited time

Bro, it's working !!!
Wifi is working !!!
Thx a lot !!!

Anyway, is it possible to add touchscreen features on CWM ? I mean like xKernel on ICS (if i'm not mistaken)

Sorry for my bad english...
and once more..

THANK YOU !!!

 

[bojantanasic]

Great kernel, thank you very much wedgess:highfive:

 

[Runner_cz]

TRied to change the zRam values. The zRAM menu shows only enable or disable. And neither of the two works.

cosmetical issue:

ray's wifi drivers script says

ui_print("| For Xperia anzu |");

But ray is urushi

 

[Jorre2220]

I'm testing your kernel and it looks very promising.
Battery life seems really great !:good:

 

[Ecou81]

is it ok to flash it over an ICS 4.0.4 based rom?

 

[Jorre2220]

is it ok to flash it over an ICS 4.0.4 based rom?

Nope, it's a Gingerbread kernel not ICS.

i suggest you go to the Lupus ICS Topic

 

[Runner_cz]

One of my colleagues tried the folowing Lupus Menu twiks on the gin2jellybean ROM and this kernel:

2. SQLITE3 optimization
3. LMK
5. Network optimization
8. SDcard speed tweak

After the tweaks were applied and the phone restarted - the phone didn't start - it's got into cycle reboot loop. It seems it conflicts with some gin2jellybean own scripts... Not sure if this should be taken as kernel or rom issue... Just for the info so far.

Today've got a strange problem with USB-OTG.
USB mouse works fine.
USB keyboard - doesnt's work, isn't even recognized.
USB flash stick - recognized, but the phone says "unsupported hardware connected"

Any ideas?

Today've got a strange problem with USB-OTG.
USB mouse works fine.
USB keyboard - doesnt's work, isn't even recognized.
USB flash stick - recognized, but the phone says "unsupported hardware connected"

Any ideas?

for the flash usb stick,use USB OTG Helper app to mount the drive..and make sure enable in lupus menu..

 

[king40]

hi
i install this kernel on xperia mini
and then i lost touch
touch not working on my phone
please help me :'(

 

[Jorre2220]

Why would you install a xperia ray kernel on a xperia mini?

I suggest that you install xperia mini firmware or kernel to get your device back working

Sent from my ST18i using xda app-developers app

 

[king40]

i install xperia mini kernel not ray kernel

 

[Jorre2220]

Ok, did you wipe the cache and dalvik cache? Install wifi modules?

no any my sticks mounts successfully at aires' kernels. I use simple one file fuse.ko and puts it at /system/lib/modules with appropr. perms after that helper (and Q5 utility too) mounts any sticks, multi-card readers perfectly.
maybe I wrong but try this))

upd: oops, kernel utility drops all needed files (sym-links) to modules folder. so, Runner try to re-enable otg feature.

 

[TheDynamiteGuy]

@wedgess
can you make 480p version of this kernel which make the performance higher and more ram??
i rarely use the camera and 720p is useless to me..

 

[Runner_cz]

Retested the USB-OTG for the external flash drives. Combination of both USBT OTG Helper + modules really works. Everything is fine here.

 

[Runner_cz]

Got strange problem in TWRP.
SOme of the ZIP updates can't be installed. TWRP simply reports an error during attept to install the zip-file, without details. The same zip is OK installed from CWM.

One of my colleagues tried the folowing Lupus Menu twiks on the gin2jellybean ROM and this kernel:

2. SQLITE3 optimization
3. LMK
5. Network optimization
8. SDcard speed tweak

After the tweaks were applied and the phone restarted - the phone didn't start - it's got into cycle reboot loop. It seems it conflicts with some gin2jellybean own scripts... Not sure if this should be taken as kernel or rom issue... Just for the info so far.

I have got a similarproblem with cycle reboot using this kernel.The story was:

1. Full wipe
2. Install radio modules from .85
3. Install this kernel
4. Clean install gin2jellybean 2.4.0 + install WIFI modules from lupus on top.
5. Boot, set up and tweak the system: settings, programs, USB Helper, autostarts, etc..Enabled some tweaks in Lupus menu: frandom + USB OTG
(I used the system for several days)
6. Make CWM nandroid backup
7. Restored from this and other backups (e.g. old repack7 and repack8 backups) several times successfully.

So far so good, everything works.

8. Again full wipe using the CWM, like usually, before installing another rom.
9. FULL install of the STOCK GB 4.0.2.A.84 version (this ROM version finally appeared available yesterday!!! see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41976134&postcount=541)
10. Used this stock rom for several hours, everything fine. Tired of it, found nothing interesting. Decided to go back to my previous state.
11. So, on top of this stock (in order to keep the newest version of radio .86 from this new stock) - installed this Lupus kernel back. Rebooted.
12. Got into CWM and made again full wipe (including system)
13. Restored my last backup, no errors.
14. Restarted - and, voila! got cycle reboot!!! No even ROM logo appears.
15. OK, get back into CWM and tred to restore other g2jb backup, older one - and again cycle reboot after restart.
16. OK, get back to WRP and restore the TWRP backup - no luck, still cycle reboot ater restart.
17. OK, tried from CWM the very oldest backup of Repack8, from some week ago. Still cycle reboot ater restart.
So it seems the issue is not in the rom backups, but in kernel.
To check this - flashed aire's uv7.1.4 kernel and restored the most recent g2jb backup. And the system booted OK without any issues!
So now it runs perfectly with radio .86 + aire's kernel + most recent backup of g2jb


Any ideas?

using this kernel with ginjelly with no problems or whatever.
