Hi folks and funksters!
Greetings.
Just wanted to inform of the latest patch for Haveged:
https://github.com/Openand-I/haveged
Do find this of use amongst the ROM developer community to propagate to custom phones.
Please request your friendly neighbourhood developer to compile haveged particularly with the 'clock_gettime' option enabled. That should fill 80% of the performance gap that exists between Android and i*** and/or Samsung phones.
Next recommendation is to use the jlcooke patch to /dev/random as specified in the patch notes. And JFS (with case insensitivity). And the 'row' scheduler. And 'interactive' and 'hotplug' merged governor called 'hinteractive' ( perhaps ). Or better yet, the cpu driver does scaling by itself. And LMK is done in user space and the kernel is returned to its pure Ubuntu roots ( therefore with one kernel for different phones) with hardware loaded as signed modules ( like the Softwinner Astar phones ). And zram and zswap (with lz4) so apps and OS can be suspended to disk with instant on ( again somewhat like the Astar kernels) and actual content creators can enter this space. .
If Linux and Android drag their respective feet with the failsafe version of everything under the sun, fork the damn thing I say.
Cheers,
