After a quick search for a list of kernels to be used with CM7, In order to get an easy shortcut, you will find here a list of custom kernels compiled for CyanogenMod 7, this list is not finale, and it will be updated asap.
Don't hesitate to contact me if your kernel isn't in the list.
[KERNEL] CM7 platypus custom kernel, Voodoo SOUND & COLOR,TINYRCU,SLQB, security,more
Made by zacharias.maladroit
so far it's very fast & responsive & smooth
Features:

* network security (syncookies; only secure redirects allowed; higher number of outstanding syn requests allowed; disabled warnings for invalid responses to broadcast frames; enabled window scaling; disabled IP dynaddr & ECN; log and drop "martian" packets; protection against: broadcast pings and smurf attacks, redirects for IP source routing, non-secure redirects, DoS (syn-flood) attacks, IP-Spoofing)
* disabled kernel DEBUG & disabled DEBUG in kernel code
* support of more encryption ciphers
* utf8 support (international)
* fixed & improved CFQ i/o scheduler (option)

[kernel] CM7 kernel(s) SOUND-COLOR-TINYRCU-NODEBUG and more.
Made by bilboa1
Development stopped on this kernel, and will be removed soon from this thread
Fat visible download link http://kang.project-voodoo.org/
Disclaimer:
These kernels are provided as-is without any warranty. I'm not here to provide support etc although I might when I'm able, but don't count on it. If your phone explode, it's your problem. Updates are not guaranteed as well.
What's included
Sometimes: testing stuff from teamhacksung before it goes into their stable upstream
Various tweaks: such as JPX screen timings, Haptic feedback and general vibration intensity slightly reduced
Voodoo sound patch
Voodoo color patch
Led notification: not "BLN" - and no app required - use CM quiet hours for scheduling
Extra governors: Smartass, Interactive
Overclock/Undervoltage: I use [email protected] and 1.2Ghz max and rest default, change voltage with "voltage control" (market). Default settings to 1Ghz.
Easy building system and clear commits: for other devs, and myself too lol
The goods:
Please follow any instruction on the website, for your own good ;-)

[KERNEL][CM7/MIUI][22/04/11] V6pre-u2 - 1.44GHz OC/UV,VoodooSound/Color, LED Notif..
Made by Tk-Glitch
Overview :
- Up to 1.44GHz CPU OC and 240MHz GPU OC (Thanks morfic)
- Undervolting using Pimp my CPU or Voltage Control
- Voodoo Sound & Voodoo Color (Thanks Supercurio)
- Led Notifications (Thanks bilboa1 - See his thread for more information)
- FPS uncap (from 56 to 66) from JPX source
- Various tweaks for more smoothness and reliability
After 4 internal/experimental kernels, I decided to make the 5th one public.
I think it's stable enough to be used on a daily basis (I do).
This kernel provides a bit more extreme experience to the OC AND CM7 lovers.
The frequency/voltage & informative UV settings table is as follow for V6pre kernel :
Note that these UV settings can/will be unstable on some devices.
1440 MHz - 1.475v / -50mv
1400 MHz - 1.425v / -50mv
1300 MHz - 1.375v / -50mv
1200 MHz - 1.325v / -50mv
1000 MHz - 1.275v / -50mv - If you have stability issues, try to let this one by default.
800 MHz - 1.200v / -50mv
400 MHz - 1.200v / -100mv
100 MHz - 0.950v / -100mv - (can be very different between two devices)
Considering all phones will respond differently to OC/UV, tweak the values to suit your device will be needed most likely.
More volts is not always equal to more stability. Try to add more UV (less volts) if the frequency you're trying to achieve is unstable at default voltage.
By default, no overclock/undervolt is applied. You'll need to use one of the tools below to adjust the frequencies and voltages.

Do we really need a list for two kernels?
Even if there will be one or two more kernels for CM7 in the future, I think the existing Kernels list is far enought sufficient.

Both kernels support OC/UV.
added Tk-Glitch kernel
tk-glitch doesn't show in the poll.
I'm going to vote for Tk-Glitch because OC to 1440 MHz really makes a difference

Yup on battery
Bilboa going to stop development on his CM7 kernel on sgs
why i cant install Platypus nor Glitch kernel in CM7.1? CWM5.something
i also flashed the kernel cleaning by lippol94's updated cleaning script before it. it stuck in the cyanogenmod7 with the arrow loading circularly through the android start up. what should i do?

CHANGELOGS IN #2 POSTThe frequency/voltage & informative UV settings table is as follow for V13 kernel :
Note that these UV settings will be unstable on many devices. It's only informative.
1700 MHz - [email protected] 243 MHz - 1.500v / -> Most phones will fail here. -25 to -50mV may help to stabilize. Much stabler as unique frequency for benchmarks.
1600 MHz - [email protected] 229 MHz - 1.500V / -> That's high and many devices will fail on this frequency. Find working UV for you if any.
1500 MHz - [email protected] 250 MHz - 1.500V / -25mV
1440 MHz - [email protected] 240 MHz - 1.475V / -50mV
1400 MHz - [email protected] 233 MHz - 1.450V / -50mV
1300 MHz - [email protected] 217 MHz - 1.400V / -50mV
1200 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.350V / -50mV
1000 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.250V / -50mV - If you have stability issues, try to let this one by default.
800 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.200V / -75mV
400 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.050V / -100mV
200 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 0.950V / -150mV
100 MHz - [email protected] 100 MHz - 0.950V / -200mV - (can be very different between two devices)
GPU frequency is linked to bus speed
More volts is not always equal to more stability. Try to add more UV (less volts) if the frequency you're trying to achieve is unstable.
Considering all phones will respond differently to OC/UV, to tweak the values to suit your device will be required.
By default, no overclock/undervolt is applied. You'll need to use one of the tools below to adjust the frequencies and voltages.

03/06/2011 - V10B To use with newest builds only (equal or newer than 28/05) !
- Upstream sync (FM radio, new Voodoo Sound implementation, etc...)
- Back to 4.4.3 toolchain - needed for new RIL
- Big cleanup - rewrite from scratch
- Many fixes
- New tweaks for speed on 4.4.3 toolchain
- New tweaks for stability on 4.4.3 toolchain
- Black magic
17/06/2011 - V10C (Updated) To use with newest builds, #28+ for i9000 or equivalent
- Upstream sync (cpuidle, updated drivers (wifi etc.), Recovery 4.0.0.x, etc...) (updated as of today 17/06)
- More debug stuff disabled
- Dock audio support (experimental)
- Added DIDLE (Deep Idle) support (removed, buggy)
- New voltage tweaks for added stability on some devicesV9
16/05/2011 - V9A
- Merged with the now dead V8C update because of new added features
- Upstream sync : Calculate battery percentage as percent of max capacity reported when battery full, new wifi driver, etc.
- New PMEM settings for more available RAM (now 331MB)
- 1.54GHz step added with some gentle settings for now.
- New step by step frequency switch when scaling down (part of the Galaxy S II port from Bilboa1) - more stability on highest frequencies
- Corrections and further tweaking on smartass governor + some fixes from Netarchy (Nexus S). 400MHz lock when screen is on removed (not needed anymore -> more power saving)
- Higher cache for faster SDcard read speed
- New sleep settings : Effective lock to 400MHz max when screen is off -> fix long wake up/hiccups when playing music or similar use. Be careful with your UV settings on 200 and 400MHz steps to avoid sleep of death problems ! These were not used on previous versions of my kernel (locked to 100 MHz when screen off and locked to 400MHz when screen on with a buggy gap in smartass governor forcing generally 600+ MHz)
- 600 MHz step removed (it was generating instabilities on some phones when jumping to 800 or down to 400 when using UV)
- Some voltage tweaks for added stability on some devices (as always)
- Cleanups on unused/no more needed stuff
- Little surprise, thanks to Morfic
- Updated to V9A² to fix SOD and some performance issues
21/05/2011 - V9B
- Upstream sync (CWM recovery 3.1.0.1, better screen colors (kills voodoo color for now and looks awful on my 0516 build, but should be good on latest), GPIO fixes, samsung modemctl...) + small changes on my side for official CyanogenMod repository compatibility
- Voodoo Sound updated to V9 / cleaned voodoo color stuff until it works again
- New cleaner bootlogo based on the one in first post, preferred by most users
- Some additional compilation flags from Netarchy and Zacharias.maladroit (better overall performances + NEON)
- Screen refresh frequency bumped to 72Hz (68Hz effective). It'll uncap FPS to 66 again but seems stabler than before on framerate (the divide/2 behavior happens less)
- Added screenstate scaling script from well.heeled.man as a test (with my kernel's smartass default settings). It should give better sleep power consumption as well as better power efficiency on screen off tasks like music playing etc. by switching to conservative governor.
If you want more information, discuss on this or contribute to enhance it, please come here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087646
- Adding some stuff from Zacharias.madadroit :
- Higher battery charging temperature
- Scheduler tweaks
Alternative version now available (V9B-VC) using old AMOLED panel color/gamma settings and with Voodoo Color V2 added back.
24/05/2011 - V9C TO USE WITH CM7 Nightly build #12 OR HIGHER ONLY
(Updated to fix "no service" issue, but still sucks.. unstable on #12 build, very stable on others but no service)
- Upstream sync (PMEM disabled (gives 339MB RAM now), new RIL, headset fixes...)
- Divider changes for MUCH better stability on 1.2GHz at the cost of a slight decrease on performances
- New branch with Voodoo Color display driver and "old" color settings named "VC"
- Fix for Vibrant no service problem - hopefully
- Small changes on smartass governor for better scalability (reverts some old settings not needed anymore with the screenstate script)
- Glitch logo now in update script too for nanu_x2 to be amazed when installing my kernel
24/05/2011 - V9D TO USE WITH CM7 Nightly build #11 OR LOWER (for i9000, or cappy/vibrant equivalent) AND MIUI ONLY
First "D" revision.. Sound like duty. It's basically a fix of a fix done to make the V9C features available for "stable builds" (considering the i9000 #12 isn't)
- Obviously all the V9C changelog
- Using old RIL to be compatible with builds before #12 for I9000 (--> WON'T WORK with #12 for i9000 or equivalent !)
- Replaced 1.54GHz step by 1.6GHz (1.54GHz step was somewhat useless, too close to 1.5Ghz, and slower overall because of the lower bus speed)
- I can't build Vibrant ATM, the CM7 build system is broken on this device or I'm doing something wrong but I wasn't able to fix it. Any help is appreciated. I'm sorry for Vibrant users I'm screwed.V8
07/05/2011 - V8A - To use with 05062011 or newer CM7 build (useable on MIUI RC8 but you'll lose camera - MIUI needs an update)
- Upstream sync (camera fixes etc.)
- More stability fixes
- Cleanups on OC code (found that 1.2 and 1.3GHz were very unstable compared to earlier releases)
- More work on Vibrant/Captivate. The kernels are now available to download but are untested - for now. Feel free to try and report any problem or if all runs well. If I have enough positive reviews, these kernels will be released in their respective device sections.
11/05/2011 - V8B
Upstream sync only :
- USB switch suspend
- TV out stuff
- Fascinate specifics
- Revert "Got back to previous samsung_modemctl" for 05112011 CM7 build
V7
02/05/2011 - V7A - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Resurrect Voodoo Color killed by 2.3.4 merge.
- New step for 1.5GHz on top of 1.44GHz (now 9 steps total versus 8 before)
- Forcing 400MHz max when sleeping for added battery life (default = 800). Couldn't detect any side effect.
- New tweaked Smartass governor now default (800MHz min when screen on). Please report your experience
- It seems the smartass governor is not working by default, it will revert to performance >< Please force it to get it to work -> Ok found the problem, I'll update in a min
- Now updated to V7A-2 to fix the governor bug
03/05/2011 - V7B - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Resurrect Voodoo Color killed by 2.3.4 merge - Again - fully working now
- Fixed sleep of death issue when unplugged
- Switched to LZO compression for better overall speed and reduced boot time
- Tweaked smartass governor more for - hopefully - better battery life and a bit more responsivity
- New voltage and frequency table rewrite as a bonus with now 11 frequencies total
- Stability fixes on 1.5GHz step -> please test and report
- Reverted FPS uncap - at least for now - for two main reasons : more stability on high GPU freqs (1.4GHz and more), and to prevent FPS limit at max/2 (33 when unlocked to 66), limiting overall performances in heavy scenes. I think there's a lack of buffering somewhere.. It will give higher scores on some benchmarks, and lower on others. A better battery life can indeed be expected too.
- Upstream sync
05/05/2011 - V7C - To use with 05032011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Upstream sync (better battery life, reboot recovery, etc.)
- A general stability fix missing from V7 branch added back
- Tiny tweaks on the voltage table
- Big bugfix on the V7 branch (redone from scratch, cleaner)
- Switched to 2011.03 toolchain
- Added some optimization flags, "-mfloat-abi=hard" being one of them (up to 40% performance gains in specific cases)
- Small improvements here and thereV6
WIP
22/04/2011 - V6pre - preview/work in progress of upcoming V6A update *test* :
- Reverted PMEM settings to new CM7 default (317MB - same as V5A)
- Reverted some stability fixes that weren't that stable on some devices, or even prevented some to boot
- New voltage table for a more linear increase, improving stability at default settings
- Switched to Deadline scheduler by default as it appears more stable
- Back to 2010.09 toolchain for speed and efficiency
- Synchronized with last update from SGS CM7 team
Better to use CM7 04212011 update with this kernel and newer.
22/04/2011 - V6pre - update 1 :
- Battery polling bumped to 15 sec (was 1 before), it should help battery to an extent (thanks to Zach for the idea)
- Some internal voltage tweaking to hopefully be more UV friendly
- Bumped USER_HZ for more smoothness
- Another -rare- bootloop fix
22/04/2011 - V6pre - update 2 :
- Added some tweaks from V5A for testing
- Resolved a bug generating fake voltage reading
- Resolved a bug on 400MHz step generating instabilities
- Slight changes to the voltage table
- Fixed a typo
- Trying some toolchain switch - again-
23/04/2011 - V6pre - update 3 :
- Corrected Led Notifications - Now it should work properly again !
- Various bugfixes and typo corrections
- Toolchain change once again
- Added new Interactive governor with aggressive settings for even more speed. You need to change it by app (pimp my cpu/cyanogen settings), it's still on conservative by default.
(thanks Zach for your suggestion)
25/04/2011 - V6pre - update 4
- Cleanups on Led notifications to resolve a bug (buttons stopped working randomly for some users)
- More typo corrections
- Voodoo Sound V8
- Various bugfixes on CPU load and schedulers
- CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE disabled for speed
- Lower latency on GPU states switch for stabler performances
- Added a stability fix for voltage change latency when frequency is changing. It should give more stability with high undervolt or big voltage differences between two steps - Please test and report ! (Thanks Zach for pointing that to me)
- Two versions for testing purposes : V6pre-u4 is compiled using GCC 4.5.1 toolchain, and V6pre-u4(alt) is compiled using GCC 4.4.3 one. If you get instabilities on the first one, try the other and vice versa. Please report your findings on that because it was the first stability differences source between my kernel revisions. For information, V6pre-u2 was compiled with 4.4.3, and u3 with 4.5.1.
27/04/2011 - V6pre - update 5 >> 6
- Name changed from "TkGlitch" to "Glitch"
- Cleanups on buttons (Kangsterizer)
- Lower latency on GPU states switch for stabler performances in 3D and/or at high GPU frequency - corrected, thanks to Kangsterizer
- Added a stability fix when frequency changes for cpufreq governors
- Tweaked Interactive and Conservative governors for testing
- New Frequency table : 1.5GHz is now the max selectable frequency, and 800MHz and 400MHz steps are now replaced by a unique 600MHz one.
- Changed initramfs source to remove the annoying "E:no misc partition" error in the recovery
- Now bumped to update 6 to fix an issue with the conservative governor.
27/04/2011 - V6pre - update 7
- New Frequency table : 1.44GHz removed, 800 and 400MHz steps are back.
- Battery polling bumped from 15 to 30 seconds

- Int voltage lowered for 1.5GHz step because it did have a bad effect on lower frequencies stability
- GPU power latency back to default - but fixed (100ms)
29/04/2011 - V6B - To use with 04282011 or newer CM7 build only
- New initramfs source to fix compass and update CWM recovery
- 1.5GHz replaced by 1.48GHz for stability
- New voltage table as requested by many users (+25mv on 1200 to 1400MHz steps)
- New interactive governor for better scaling and battery life
- New tweaked smartass governor for testing (pretty bad on CPU benchmarks for some reason, please test how it feels in real world use)
- New ondemand governor from Zacharias.maladroit sources for testing
02/05/2011 - V6C - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build only
- Small update to merge with 2.3.4 source, no new feature.
02/05/2011 - V6C² - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build only
- Update to repair Voodoo Sound conflicts from 2.3.4 merge.
- Back to 1.44GHz max to prepare 1.5GHz return
V5
19/04/2011 - V5A - Initial release
21/04/2011 - V5B :
- GPU overclock on 1.3 GHz added (217MHz / +8.5% from default)
- New PMEM settings for more available RAM compared to V5A (now 328MB)
- Stability fixes for all frequencies, needing globally less volts. Results may vary depending on the device
- Switched to Conservative governor by default (still switchable by app). It can feel less responsive coming from idle but more battery saving, and plays better with high frequencies.
- New voltage table. Default settings should be stabler for most devices.
- Switched to 4.4.3 toolchain for added stability on some sensitive devices
Captivate and Vibrant support will come later. It will need more time than expected.
21/04/2011 - V5C : Small update to fix a bootloop issue on some devices.

Tried it out, feels amazing, thanks so much! Yet to try 1.4 though

Thanks a lot, goign to try it soon.
I have a question: what is a stock frequency of GPU and is it possible to control it?
If no, can you release 2 versions: with and without GPU OC?

The stock frequency for the GPU is 200MHz. It's not possible to control it directly because it's linked to the bus. The bus clock being a fixed value by frequency step.
Up to 1300 MHz, the GPU runs at 200MHz. At 1400MHz it runs @ 233 MHz, and at 1440MHz it runs @ 240MHz.
The bus frequency increase will lead to higher memory bandwidth and a better productivity from the CPU.
A version without GPU OC would mean with lower global performances too on the highest frequency steps, but better stability for some sensitive devices.
I'll wait a bit for more opinions if you're okay, and if some of you wants a stock GPU version i'll do it, no problem
Hm.. after flashing i got boot loop..

@ mosd Sure you can. His init.d scripts could interfere with stability and/or speed though I don't know. You'll have to tell me, I didn't test that at all ^^

To delete the scripts ? Not needed, you can do that with zach's kernel.
For something else.. hmm.. not needed, you can flash mine directly^^
If I'm on Miui and install your kernel do I still have to install the gpu drivers u put up?

@mosd
If it's the latest MIUI, I don't think so. This driver should already be included.
Thanks for answers man

No problem
Since the gpu oc is linked to cpu oc I suppose it's impossible to make gpu clock higher from 1300mhz..right?cause not all phones clock up to 1400
TalonDEV is for use with Samsung Gingerbread Roms
This kernel is still in a heavy development stage! So there may be bugs!! (hence the DEV tag)
Current Co-Devs - Kodos96, Ytt3r & zacharias.maladroit
As always, flash at your own risk, im not responsible for any damages!
Talon Source can be found on Github and Google Code
Stay up to date with latest changes on Twitter
Remember, I cant fix stupid or lazy. Please read the whole OP and the first and last 5 pages of this thead!
Custom Boot Animations
The bootanimation.zip needs to be /system/media/sanim.zip <- notice the name change
CIFS Support
Mount under /mnt/sdcard/cifs instead of /mnt/cifs.. Also use "Mount Manager" instead of "CIFS Manager"
Logcat Instructions
To enable/disable Logcat, type "logcat-enable" or "logcat-disable" in a terminal emulator and reboot
Lowmemorykiller Settings
Talon kernel includes Kodos96's "LMKSet". You can adjust the PRESET=X value in /etc/ram.conf ..
The presets are listed in the file, recommended settings are set by default. Reboot to take effect
Also make sure theres no "ramhack" scripts in /etc/init.d/ , if there is, delete it and reboot.
To install:
Flash .tar with Odin/Heimdall
If using Odin place tar in PDA slot
Enable/Disable Voodoo Lagfix in CWM->Voodoo
Delete Voltage Control settings in CWM->Advanced
Conservative Governor
Conservative is now a module, to load on every boot, dload file below and place in /etc/init.d/
make sure to remove the .sh at the end of the filename and reboot

I just use Voltage Control to set max clock and UV.. But you can use most of the others. Shane87 has been working on a Talon specific version of Voltage Control, called Control Freak, he also has Voltage Control EX, which works good. Plus I also use SetCPU to change governors.. with 0.2.1 I removed Interactive governor...I had been using it and InteractiveX, but seems Ondemand is smoother..but ill work on InteractiveX some and hopefully get it in the next build or two..but for now I recommend just using Ondemand
Thx mate, doesn't seem to want to boot for me right now..
I'm using goa trip, on rfs.
gonna back up and reflash to see if i can get it running..
Flashed on JVO with SGS kernel flasher. Voltage control set 0,-25,-50,-50,-75,-75. noop ,1200
So far everything works ok.

Seems upping the refresh rate causes colors to be washed out at low brightness, blacks turn browns ..etc.. as for smartass, it does not work well on i9k gingerbread, does not scale down and is laggy.. I did use Interactive and InteractiveX, but they seemed laggy coming out of idel (letting cpu drop to 100mhz then trying to scroll quickly would lag.. Ondemand seems to be the best choice as of right now...trust me, we have tried almost every tweak there is.. u name it, we have tried it
hmmm... flashed via Odin with no re-partition or pit and phone freezes on bootanimation. Was moving from fugu 4.0, all ext4

Does this kernel have Voodoo color menu for adjustable R/G/B and color profiles in Voodoo Control app?
Back up and running with this kernel and goa trip rc1.
Everything is running great. Quick question.. are the tweaks available in cf tweak app worth using with this kernel?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
I've written many new kernel threads, so I'll just try to make this one simple, easy and light to read.
So, let me give you a little background on me: most of you don't know me as I only bought this device few days ago, but I'm a kernel dev for two other phones, the LG P500 and the Ideos X5. Worked on both .32 and .35 trees and my works became very popular, which can be seen by following the links in my signature - specially in the P500 community.
There are plenty of kernels to choose already, so why release another one? Simply because what I have to offer none of the other kernels had. What do I bring? Performance. How do I achieve that? Check the changelog and you'll understand...but not yet, lemme finish!
I have to say this: this kernel is based on KalimochoAz sources, so every changes up to his last pushed sources it's his job, so credits to him, I take no credit from his job.
I didn't start this kernel project for recognition or anything like that, I just want to share what I did for myself, maybe someone will find it useful
So let's get started, below you'll see what I changed on top of KalimochoAz source:
8th December
* Deep_idle code deleted, and re-added. Everything is exactly as Ezekeel has in his kernel, this might, or might not help with the data loss and whatever. If you still have problems please consider disabling deep_idle and see if it helps
* Deep_idle is off by default - changeable with NStools
* Calibrate.c reverted back to the .35 implementation
* Updated CRC32 library to the latest implementation directly from its creator
* Fsync disabling code deleted and re-implemented with a different implementation
4th December
Too many changes, so I'll be just brief and simple:
* CFS autogroup tweaks
* CFS optimizations
* Readahead values automatically calculated by the kernel for the optimal performance
* Several optimizations to lib files
* Added dm-cache (http://visa.cs.fiu.edu/ming/dmcache/)
* More stability
* Much more...
25 November
* Fsyncs disabled - more IO speed, more battery (less IO operations)
* Compiled with the optimized Mjolnir toolchain
* Added 1,2ghz step
* New default colors for the SAMOLED screens
* Cgroup: speed up access to cgroupfs mounted entries in /proc/mounts
* One or two more minor tweaks and optimizations
23 November
* No more BFS code and BFS builds. I want to make sure this is stable enough. If you want BFS compile it yourself. I hope this fixes the data/gsm drops
* Minfree settings unlocked forever
* Readahead value bumped to 1024
* BLN/touchwake fix
17 November
* Patched up to the latest deep_idle version from Ezekeel
* SAMOLED colors tweaked, should be a lot better now
* Few stability updates and reverts to ensure everything is up and running without issues
* Interactive governor added again
* Interactive patched up with around 10/15 patches
* Minor tweaks and optimizations
13 November
* Based on the latest testing builds, which includes:
* Some defconfig options change for a more leaner kernel
* Delete two cflags to ensure maximum Hummingbird performance
* Internal sdcard remount bug fixed
* Minfree settings unlocked by users demand
* Deep_idle implementation changed (it's the same that I used in the last testing version)
* Added latest deep_idle patch that when the phone vibrates it uses the TOP=ON idle state
* Removed obsolete screen dimmer
* Updated BLN to latest v9
* Lazy governor changes based on morfics lazy changes
* Remove Big Kernel Lock tracing
* Some stability patches from the kernel mainline
8 November
* PMEM disabled as herring doesn't use it - this way we recover 12,5mb ram
* Ext4 mounted with special flags directly on the kernel source - more performance without needing init.d scripts
* Writeback settings now working correctly and are not overwritten by the ramdisk
* Minfree settings are now correctly set and are not overwritten by the ramdisk
6 November
* Latest deep_idle bugfix from Ezekeel
* Added Ezekeel's custom_voltage mod. For more info about it visit the respective thread. Yes it's compatible with SetCPU, maybe with Proton too, I didn't test it
* Added back BLD, touch wake and screen dimmer
* Improved CRC32 algorithm - it's used for many kernel functions
* CFS version: Cgroups: introduce timer slack subsystem - Provides a way of tasks grouping by timer slack value. This functionality is useful in mobile devices where certain background apps are attached to a cgroup and minimum wakeups are desired
3 November
* Latest deep idle bugfix from Ezekeel
* Offering two separated downloads, one CFS and another BFS. Don't ask me which one is better, try it and see, I'll be really mad if I get questions like that
* Idle_stats show 0 in every field - don't worry about that, it happens because of my cpu_idle 3.1 backport, but I assure you deep idle is working. Again I'm not answering questions like "WHY IS IDLE STATS 0?!?!? HALP PLZ".
* 'screenoff_maxfreq' is disabled by default. If you want that behavior write this in the terminal: echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/lazy/screenoff_maxfreq
2 November
* Newest deep idle bugfix from Ezekeel
* Reverted back to CFS because stock users had mounting problems with the sdcard and some users had data/wifi drops and I don't want that
1 November
* First and entirely BFS kernel with the newest 0.413 version
* Optimized the tunable BFS parameters for extra interactivity and smoothness
* More debugging disabled - I'm pretty sure 99% of the debugging flags are now disabled
* All the latest bugfixes and implementations from Ezekeel, including live_oc up to 150, lazy maxfrequency_screenoff enabled by default and all the other small fixes to ensure maximum stability
* Small changes to the lowmemorykiller
* Added optimized RWSEM algorithm
* Added some minor improvements and tweaks
* Sorry devs that wanted logcat, it's still a module because I suspect I'll have to update this build again with some extra fixes from Ezekeel in a very near future thus not making much sense to release two kernels now, one with logcat on and other with it off because that takes time to compile. If you desperatly need logcat go to my .config and change CONFIG_ANDROID_LOGGER=m to CONFIG_ANDROID_LOGGER=y and recompile it
27 October
* Latest deep idle and live oc bugfix from Ezekeel - should fix that extra battery drain reported by some users
* Changed lowmemorykiller.c - minfree settings already incorporated in the file. Settings kanged from morfic's tweak file, thanks
* Add cleancache - driver to cache clean pages
* Fixed ext4 disk write performance regression
* Small power management fix to back off suspend if repeated attempts fail - avoid continually trying to suspend in situations in which a driver is repeatedly rejecting suspend or a pending wakeup interrupt is not handled, burning CPU in the continuous suspend attempts
* Lib file added for the users where BLN didn't work
* Logcat module added inside /system/modules. If you want to use logcat just load the module with insmod
24 October
* BLX added again by default and patched up to the latest fix from Ezekeel
* Deep idle patched up to the latest fix from Ezekeel
* Live OC added and patched up to the latest fix from Ezekeel. To overclock you need to do this in the terminal or in an init.d file: echo 110 > /sys/class/misc/liveoc/oc_value. The 110 value means that both cpu frequency and bus frequency will be increased by 10%. You can increase this value as much as you want, as long as you increase the voltages otherwise the device won't handle it, but that's obvious.
* Changed dirty_writeback values from morfic to increase smoothness
* Overclock frequencies removed. The device is fast enough with 1000,800,400,200 and 100 frequencies. If you want to overclock use Live OC, it's enough to make it fly
* Conservative governor tweaked - smooth as butter
* Removed a ton of debugging ****
* Deadline I/O scheduler made default - after much testing it seems to produce the best and more regular results
* Swappiness disabled
* For more information visit my github, this are the most important changes
21 October
* Latest Deep idle bugfix from Ezekeel
* sched: disable GENTLE_FAIR_SLEEPERS
* Remove few obsolete governors
* BLN fix for MIUI users - now it should be propely set and full working
* Just 3 more tweaks:
PM QoS: Correct pr_debug() misuse and improve parameter checks
mmc: core: put eMMC in sleep (cmd5) mode before suspend
vmscan: prevent background aging of anon page in no swap system
19 October
* UV **** is fixed, SetCPU and Proton should work fine now
* Config_HZ increased to 1000 by request of an user
* Small tweak to VR
* Compiled with special Cflags from netarchy
* Calibration tweaks for touchscreen from netarchy
18 October
* Update cpu freq. to allow UV interface - you can modify the voltages on the fly going to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table with an easy layout
* Auto BLN added again - it works now out of the box without the need of an extra app
* Add Lazy governor by Ezekeel
* config edited again, removed alot of **** options that are not needed at all - this way the kernel is even leaner
* cpu_idle backport from 3.1 - maybe helps with the BSOD problem
* Tweaked VR scheduler to work better for flash devices like our Nexus
* Ext4 tweaks
* A lot of USB tweaked code
* More fs tweaks to decreast CPU usage on unecessary ****
* More TCP/IP tweaks
* vfs_cache_pressure -> 25
* dirty_background_ratio -> 60
* dirty_ratio -> 90
* vm_swappiness -> 30
* Sysfs interface for deep_idle created by Ezekeel was added. If you want to disable deep_idle run this command: echo 0 > /sys/class/misc/deepidle/enabled
* Screen refresh rate increased to 65hz, everything should be even smoother (thanks morfic)
* If you want more detailed information about all the tweaks added you can visit my github
----------
* No more debugging **** in the kernel. No logcat, no dmesg, no debug_kernel etc etc, this **** is clean on that logging stuff that only consume CPU cycles in the background
* CFS scheduler tweaked with custom settings
* dirty_writeback value increased from 5*100 to 15*100, reducing unnecessary I/O activity, thus releasing a few CPU cycles
* Deep Idle mod by Ezekeel (latest version)
* Few patches to lowmemorykiller.c hopefully to optimize memory usage
* Add VR I/O scheduler and made default. A lot of performance gain comes from this one.
* Also enabled BFQ scheduler to be an option with no-frills
* init/calibrate.c port from 2.6.39. Better loops per jiffy calculations
* vfs_cache_pressure 100->50
* Add Stochastic Fair Blue (SFB) network scheduler and make it default. This is a network packet scheduler, should make internet usage a lot smoother
* Changed TCP_congestion scheduler to TCP_Veno. TCP Veno module is a new congestion control module to improve TCP performance over wireless networks. The key innovation in TCP Veno is the enhancement of TCP Reno/Sack congestion control algorithm by using the estimated state of a connection based on TCP Vegas. This scheme significantly reduces "blind" reduction of TCP window regardless of the cause of packet loss.
* Tiny RCU is the default RCU engine. More explanation on this RCU here http://lwn.net/Articles/323929/
* Kernel compiled with -O2, meaning the code is more optimized instead of being compiled for size
* WiFi = PM_FAST in standby
* Optimized the config options for CFS Autogroup in the .config file, it should be perfect now
* Again more and more debugging disabled
* Obviously some minor changes and tweaking, but that can all be seen in my github below

Hi all,
I deleted all my old projects because i wasnt quite happy with them, so i created this kernel called Private Kernel because i thought i completly stop development on xda because downloads were quite low and decreasing from version to version. But now i am back with this kernel, i hope you enjoy it. I hope i did not do any mistakes with devDB

* francos thermal driver tuned to work with the VADC sensor (more accurate throttling results)
* not underclocked by default
* added more ioschedulers (BFQ default)
* cpuquiet hotplug
* compiled with uber linaro toolchain
* some small various tweaks etc....
Only for roms with sultans CAF kernel! I dont support any weird combinations of camera hal's blobs and drivers.

Thanks. I was waiting for a simplistic CAF kernel with just optimizations for a while now.
Kernel fast & smooth but in me the wifi is switch off by itself while idle
And for the battery compared to stock darkobas I feel this kernel got more long lasting one
Working well with CAF Temasek. Very smooth! Are we allowed to give feature request? If so, I'd like to request CPU voltage tuning. Thanks
Two cores always online by default?
Flashed on BrokenOS 6.0 and working well... Hope you'll add CPU govns in feature builds.

The wifi driver is exactly the same like on sultans stock kernel. Your problem must be with darkobas stock kernel, too. And i am sure that your wifi problem is rom related. I get 4 - 5 hours SOT on MM.

Yes this is the design of my hotplug. We have 4 cores on our device core0 core1 core2 core3. And core1 is always be onlined and offlined all the time and this eats up your battery.
"Every time a core gets kicked in, there have some calculations to be made, which needs battery. Onlining a core also needs some battery every time. You're using your device and cores are getting kicked in and out, because you have some more idle phase and some more heavy load phase.
Remember also that even if all cores are online, it doesnt mean a core cant enter a battery saving idle state if it doesnt have anything to do.
Online doesnt mean the core is active the whole time, it just doesnt get kicked out, which in the end is best for low latencies. The higher the idle state, the more time it needs to get active again. But its always faster than getting kicked out."

Sounds great �� Thanks. Working perfectly well.
@DerRomtester glad to see you back! I've never used your kernels before (my apologies!). I tend to use stock kernel to test ROMs. I also know how you feel when downloads time and again decrease and never increase. But trust me, there will always be someone that appreciates what you do. I know this is a CAF kernel but if you have the time, I suggest you give the latest OxygenOS 2.1.4 a spin. I know its not the latest OS or the most features but just on stock kernel, I'm getting great battery life out of it! I'm at 41% now with 39hrs standby and 5hrs SOT with less than 5hrs on wifi!
Stock kernel has input boost clocked at 1.7Ghz and stock interactive 1.2Ghz (hispeed_freq) with minimum frequency at 300Mhz and maximum frequency at 2.5Ghz. I did not tweak any kernel related things.

Yea, I second that. Why don't you try to build for Oxygen OS 2.1.4, if the sources are out..

Final notice: Since my Z5 died (it's broken into pieces, glass shattered) - development is effectively halted - NO more updates - sorry
This is a Stock (Sony) ROM Kernel and WILL NOT work on AOSP, CM, etc.
aka SunKernel for Z4/Z3+ & Z4/Z3+ Dual - Stock ROM (for now only stock)
This is an extension of the Xperia Z5/Z5 Dual "sumire" main thread over at: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...und-z5-wip-t3340725/post65936553#post65936553
Finally !
So the kernel is now also available for the (somewhat forgotten) Z4/Z3+ series
Please understand that I can't test whether it works due to lack of that very device - Enjoy !
Keep in mind that building for the Z5 "Stock" ROMs and "Stock" Kernels, you're constantly facing the following tradeoff:
compatibility with pre-built "core" kernel modules (e.g. texfat [proprietary exfat microSD fs driver])
compatibility with pre-built "goodies" kernel modules (e.g. video and other acceleration, hwcodecs, ...)
losing features that can NOT be replaced by similar ones (e.g. ecryptfs, wlan, exfat, etc.)
when going too far the device doesn't boot or simply hangs on bootanimation
this resulted in a couple branches (at least several dozen) that are partially or totally broken :silly:

Before starting to test/use keep in mind that this is WIP (work in progress),
that means - NO guarantees,
backups before flashing are a MUST (especially your microSD card content !)
stability, speed, improved battery and satisfaction are a great side-effect to have.
You have been WARNED !
Enjoy !

Features:
(will add more later if I forgot anything)
Features said:
@AndroPlus for build-scripts, kernel patches
@Tommy-Geenexus for kernel patches, fixes
pstore
LPM (low power mode, battery efficiency)
fix high load average (lower battery consumption)
microSD, internal SD reliability improvements
cpuidle improvements (battery efficiency)
fix page thrashing in case of low memory situation (when you disable zram)
vmalloc improvements (less memory fragmentation, better reliability of camera, wifi, etc. drivers with long runtime)
FauxSound
KCAL
WLAN: disable memdesc and ramdumps (thanks to @Tommy-Geenexus )
notification LED changes to green+blue (cyan), when battery is really full (thanks to @Tommy-Geenexus )
Powersuspend, QuickWakeup, Power Efficient Workqueues,
improved vibrator, faster/more reliable interactivity
bluetooth hidp, fix disconnect on idle timeout
a few general stability fixes & reliability improvements
added wakelock switches (only use, if you observe high drain with specific functions; might cause instabilities or higher battery drain !)
big.LITTLE optimization flags; aggressive compiler optimization flags
disabled KSM, it's a battery drainer and magically gets enabled by Sony's ROM so remove it
added BFQ i/o scheduler (now YOU show me where it's smoother ! )
improved noop i/o scheduler - now it's more bare, previously it was similar to simple i/o scheduler - now it should be optimum for bare metal SSD/microSD access
GPU default set to 180 MHz
cpu governors: added ZZMoove, elementalX
added vibrator intensity switch support
added a bunch touchpad (screen) and fingerprint scanner fixes & improvements
support for Sumire DSDS (dual sim) (testing, used single SIM ramdisk)
kudos to all devs working on android, whether at Linux Foundation (Linux Kernel), Android (Google), Codeaurora, XDA or elsewhere - YOU ROCK !
this one looks to be more battery friendly
WIP branch
NEW features
sys-fs interface to control vibrator intensity (some kernel tools might support it)
lowered init value of screen during bootup: now you shouldn't get 100% BLINDED when rebooting :cyclops:
core 0 and 4 are now always on (per default, unless you play around with core_ctl) - allows changing governor settings for the big cores
mmc crc checksum is disabled by default (?) - 30% or more higher performance, re-enable if you favor integrity
KEXEC support - give @Myself5 's MultiROM a test-drive if you're curious (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/orig-development/mod-multirom-v33x-t3374763)
added Alucard cpufreq governor, if it's too laggy, unstable, etc. - I'm throwing it out the airlock
added a few additional changes thanks to @AndroPlus
.
224 version bump (224 ROMs ONLY)
RAM (working memory) energy efficiency improvements, thanks to @AndroPlus to spot it
overclocking support "big" core ~ 2.1 GHz, "little" core ~ 1.7 GHz (the "little" core is less tolerant for OC, less stable)
changed optimization flags (evaluation), should now be more stable but also faster, efficient
.
Z4/Z3+ support

If you have systemless root and systemless xposed on your system, you have to flash latest betaSU and latest systemless xposed framework immediatly after flashing a new Kernel. If you dont do this you will get a bootloop.

Thanks
it is coming thx very much
twrp can not mount mtp
works great
Flashed your Kernel Today, no problems with Systemless Root, flashed Systemless Xposed - no problems here. Everything works fine... Now lets have a look at what we can do
If you don't mind a small request to @zacharias.maladroit, I want to use your kernel and features are good, but can you make a kernel build with default clock of CPU and GPU reduced to 50% before boot (it should be same in recovery also) and i want to manually change its default clock through kernel auditor if i want later. Reason is my phone gets heated during boot due to its running at max frequencies.
Thanks for your work and I hope you wont mind giving me this option.
EDIT: Faux sound is not working and it does nothing when i change it from kernel auditor.

What you mean ? Which kernel you are referring to ? Does that kernel have all the features of Zach's ? If so give me link as I can't find it. I liked Zach's kernel but during boot my phone gets hot due to default max freq and also faux sound is not working (which does nothing when i change sliders from kernel auditor app).
Flashed this kernel working well, systemless root, xposed and ex kernel manager. Letting it sit in till I start messing with settings.

Kernel Adiutor Sound controls are broken,
please use Faux Sound Control instead, that works;
I'll see what I can find on that CPU + GPU reduction during bootup,
but this will take some time, focusing on several projects (Android + non-Android) at the same time, so need to triage

I've tried that also but seems to me only Headphones are working and speakers does nothing. Can you please try again and let me know ?
For the GPU/CPU, It would be better if you down clock them by 50% default and clock it higher after OS is loaded using init.d or something else.
Thanks
same problem here
please do a fix with the broken sound using audio output.. Only headset working flawlessly. thank
please add a touch boost swich in the next update,and fix twrp mtp mode,can not link with computer.thx
I used kernel Andro v31 and now i flash and use Zachs kernel, but SuperSu automatic updated and now i can't install binary for it. Anyone can help me?
i use this kernel i want to know how to flash supersu2.76 and how to shut cpu 4..please
