[KERNEL][STOCK-CROMi][OC][LINARO]MaxKernel V4 RC2 (10.6.1.14.8) [Reloaded][July 7]

[maxrdlf95]

So I'm presenting my kernel today I didn't sleep because it was so fun to compile and compile all night so I make my own kernel and yesterday I made some questions and I need to thanks "_that" because he help me to compile the kernel.

Reloaded version done from Zero again will put the features missing later.
Now I will do extensive test of a version and will know exactly what changes from version to version.
I will start to add the featurer that were on my previous kernel later..

Features:
ISO 9660 Support
UDF Support
CIFS Support
Dynamic Fsync
No more crash when reading /sys/bus/nvhost/drivers/tegradc/tegradc.0/nvdps
Companion Core OC to it's full potential 620 MHz
Thalamus hot-plugging
Compiler With Linaro 4.7 using -O3 Optimizations

I/O Schedulers
noop
deadline
row - default
cfq
bfq
sio

CPU Governors:
lagfree
smartassH3
touchdemand
lulzactive
pegasusq
interactive - default
And the default ones.

Ramdisk:
DPI Unlocked
ADBD with Root (ro.secure=0 )

Coming next:

Comming
Source for V2

First!

So I'm presenting my kernel today I didn't sleep because it was so fun to compile and compile all night so I make my own kernel

Cool, another kernel. :good: I think I can retire soon.

Lot of optimizations and patches that I don't remember now.

Remember you have to offer the source code of your kernel because it's under GPL license.

Oh yes.. Will upload it tonight untill I learn how to use github

P.D Don't retire yet I'm still learning

 

[radi8]

Cool

That´s great news, thanks! Downloading now...

 

[_that]

Oh yes.. Will upload it tonight untill I learn how to use github

Ah, github ... it's great, but I will only start using it when I know how to use it correctly.

P.D Don't retire yet I'm still learning

That was, of course, a joke - I will continue to maintain my stable stock kernel, presumably as long as I own the device, maybe even a bit longer. It's great that we now have multiple devs who bring variety.

 

[bryce09]

great to see that someone else is finally seeing the potential of thalamus' hotplugging routines.

Which ones are you using (modified from franco or the original ones)?

Good to see another dev!

Do you understand how hotplugging works together with the lp/g cluster switching? And well enough that you can explain it to me?

 

[myeepad]

Oh yes.. Will upload it tonight untill I learn how to use github

P.D Don't retire yet I'm still learning

With the fortune _That made from publishing his kernels and giving good advices to everyone in this community, he can sure retire from his regular work and help us more here..

Im using original Thalamus THanks!:good:

 

[maxrdlf95]

So I got already init.d Support wil upload next version with that and kexec suport for mutiboot

Source code will also be with that version

 

[buhohitr]

Is it possible you're going to release a version for data2sd like Hund's kernel? That would be great. Thanks.
With quadrant your kernel is about 150point more than that V2 stock kernel and it's flying when I put on performance mode (as fast as Hund's OC kernel). I ran about 10 quadrant and the cpu temp is about 42C. Good job for your first time!!

Edit: I set the governor to lagfree and balance mode, pretty smooth and fast, very nice for daily driver, but once I set it on performance mode this thing is flying...kid you not!

 

[maxrdlf95]

Is it possible you're going to release a version for data2sd like Hund's kernel? That would be great. Thanks.

Yes I can do that

Next version will be Linaro 4.7 2013.03 Compiled so if should fly!

So far, this kernel (V1) is running really smooth with interactive and SIO. I tweaked interactive a bit to improve battery.

I noticed minimum freq never drops under 513 MHz and there is hotplug tuning vs just "max active cores" like in stock.

Questions:
Why minimum freq at 513?
Is there a way to tune hotplug to only use 2 cores?
When flashing V2 over V1, should I wipe cache and dalvik?

I'd love to know, and appreciate you guys helping me learn more about kernels and settings (I don't mean for the questions to be demanding or rude, I just wanted to ask in a straightforward manner, right to the point).
Greatly appreciate your work, flashing V2 now!!

1 I think I know why minimun its at 513 will check that later
How that of tuning to use 2 cores only
Hotplug turn on/off CPUs automatically based on frequency..
V2 over V1 no you will be ok just flashing on top of it

 

[yew123]

Always good to see another kernel for our infinity :good: Just wondering what everyone's experience with battery life has been compared to stock or that's kernel?

 

[sbdags]

Great work! Are you on with me to include in CROMi-X? :cyclops:

 

[maxrdlf95]

Great work! Are you on with me to include in CROMi-X? :cyclops:

Yes Im with you no problem to include let me fix the Clocks and you can use V3

Thanks! :highfive:

Max, I have a question, is it possible to make the powersaver/balance/performance mode stick after a reboot by just using the UI?
Edit: Also your kernel is only using the following frequencies: 1700, 1600, 1000, 620, 513 and deep sleep.

There was an error on frequency table I fixed it already and now min its 475 again
