Now this is nAa 3.x based kernel. Major props to him for making it happen. I thought we all would be forever stuck with ancient 2.6 kernel
The original from nAa is already good enough, but because i know howto compile kernel and feels uneasy using kernel compiled by others, here u go, somewhat extended kernel from the original one.
FEATURES:
Pretty much the same as nAa's, difference is:
1- compiled using Sourcery G++ Lite 2011.03-42 crosscompiler which is gcc 4.5.2 for kernel 3.4.x and with linaro 4.7-2013.06-1 which is gcc 4.7.4 for kernel 3.0.x
2- my own cpu frequency table with oc upto 1.8ghz with 100mhz steps. slightly preundervolted too.
3- not sure if its just me or the rom i'm using, interactive governor in nAa's seems abit buggy, it stayed at lowest frequency after waking from deep sleep thus making phone lags and unuseable. so i've patched it and make it default governor for kernel 3.4, and ondemand as default for kernel 3.0
4- enabled conservative and powersave cpu governor.
5- lowmemorykiller driver patched from various source
6- some networking stuff eg disabled all packet scheduling algorithm except sfb, and using veno as default tcp congestion avoidance algorithm.
7- using slub memory allocator instead of default slab.
8- enabled and use tiny preempt rcu instead or tiny rcu.
9- enabled sched autogroup.
10- wifi compat-driver is from "old" nAa's 3.4.0 which i think backported from kernel 3.8 or 3.9. current naa 03 kernel, he downgraded to compat-wireless from linux 3.2 due to some people said got connection error. that didn't happen to me so i haven't downgraded it. the 3.0 kernel uses compat-wireless 3.0.9-1.
11- currently patched to upstream linux 3.4.50 for kernel 3.4 and to 3.0.85 for kernel 3.0
12- removed smartassv2 and smartassh3 cpu governor. seems buggy and doesn't work well with kernel 3.4 and 3.0
13- added fiops disk io scheduler and made it default for kernel 3.4, sio as default for kernel 3.0
14- only for cm10. nAa's 03 got all individual ramdisk for stock, cm9, cm10 and cm10.1 ramdisk so it should boot with all those roms but i've only added cm10 ramdisk. if kernel detected that booting rom is not cm10 or cm10 based it'll force boot into recovery.
15- modules will be insmod directly from within ramdisk. existing modules in rom wont be touched.
16- miui based on cm10 compatibility by adding its required services in ramdisk.
17- stweaks support for kernel 3.0
18- probably many small things i forgot...
for more geeky bits by bits changes, read changelog.txt
BUGS?
it inherit the same bugs from nAa's kernel, probably more due to what i changed. but do not, i repeat, do not report bugs in any rom thread if u chose to use this kernel instead of default provided kernel in rom zip. by doing so u just made life harder for those rom maker/compiler. i'll bitchslap anyone who does so.
but if u still want to report bugs, report to me and provide logs. without logs i'll just ignore it.
