Disclaimer – your (already) old, repeated, boring notice:
Code:
/*
* Your warranty might not be void (thanks Xiaomi). However...
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this KERNEL
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/Not-a-features-list-sheet – except base, are changes from XenonHD Official kernel:
- CAF LA.UM.7.5.r1-05300-8x96.0 tag with android-3.18 kernel/common changes + Linux 3.18.140 (EOL) merged in.
- Powered by osm0sis' AnyKernel3!
- Compiled using Clang 9 built from source.
- Compat vDSO from Pixel XL kernel.
- Rapid GC patches for F2FS from arter97.
- sdFAT file system from Samsung for vfat and exFAT; modified and backported by LineageOS Team with additional contributors.
- WireGuard – fast, modern, secure kernel VPN tunnel
- Maximum CPU frequency after boot is set to 1804 MHz by default (still user configurable).
- westwood enabled and set as default TCP congestion algorithm.
- SafetyNet bypass code by Sultanxda.
- Boeffla Wakelock Blocker by Lord Boeffla
- KCAL Color Control by savoca; MDSS MDP v1.7 port by tbalden
- CPUFreq governors: performance, interactive.
- Enabled Yama LSM for increased security. Default to admin-only attach.
- Software CRC check exposed to userspace and disabled by default.
- Excluded most of debugging symbols for kernel size reduction.
- Any other improvements and tweaks that aren't worth to be listed here.
- ...maybe I forget more? Check sources. It speaks for itself.
Compatibility – as things are changed rapidly:
r1-r10: Oreo-MR1 non-treble ROMs only.
r3+ should support newer OV13855 camera blobs.
r4+ should support EBBG display and Goodix GT9xx touch panel.
r11-r39: Oreo-MR1, both treble and non-treble ROMs.
r26+ should support installation on
r37-r39 wouldn't support Pie ROMs with extremely weird Android versioning (9.0.0, 09.0.0, etc.).
r40+: Pie treble ROMs only.
Future releases: Who knows?
How-to-install:
- Just flash it using your favourite recovery (TWRP, RedWolf, OrangeFox, or whatever it is), no additional hassle needed.
- r39 and older zips are signed with Android test-keys; starting r40, zips are signed with KudProject release keys.
- Switching from/to another custom kernel requires re-flashing of the original boot image, or when explicitly notified to do so.
r11-39's AnyKernel2 backend have been configured to detect ROM's ro.treble.enabled prop and use appropriate DTB during kernel installation.
