REV5 BFS 18/10/2013
- add BFS version - Brain F*ck Scheduler
Detail About BFS
The goal of the Brain **** Scheduler, referred to as BFS from here on, is to
completely do away with the complex designs of the past for the cpu process
scheduler and instead implement one that is very simple in basic design.
The main focus of BFS is to achieve excellent desktop interactivity and
responsiveness without heuristics and tuning knobs that are difficult to
understand, impossible to model and predict the effect of, and when tuned to
one workload cause massive detriment to another

Settings of The Available Features
partly been taken from Christopher explanation thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2172148 all credit go to Christopher83 please thank he for prepare this detail of function
LowMemoryKiller management of not killable processes
This feature allows to define processes and system processes white-lists filled with the preferred process names and to not be killed by lowmemorykiller, unless it is absolutely necessary.
This feature exposes four new lowmemorykiller parameters:
- donotkill_proc, is the flag to enable / disable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
- donotkill_sysproc, is the flag to enable / disable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
- donotkill_proc_names, is the list of process names (comma separated) chosen by the user to be preserved from killing
- donotkill_sysproc_names, is the list of user system process names (comma separated) chosen by the user to be preserved from killing
When the lowmemorykiller needs to free ram, it will first kill the processes not included inside the two process name lists chosen by the user.
If there are no more standard killable processes, then it will be necessary to kill one of the processes included inside one of the two white-lists, to prevent system hangs, slowdowns, etc.
How to customize the white lists of processes to preserve from killing:
On HurtSky's Kernel the feature is enabled by default and the provided processes white lists are the following:
- donotkill_proc_names = "com.cyanogenmod.trebuchet,com,android.inputmethod.latin"
this means that Trebuchet Launcher,stock keyboard will be preserved from killing
- donotkill_sysproc_names = "android.process.acore,com.android.phone,com."
this means that the system process, the phone process will be preserved from killing
1) By using a customized init.d script (the custom value will be always restored after a reboot, if you don't format the system partition)
- Download the script named 80dnkp
- If the file has been saved with .txt extension (stock browser), rename it by removing the .txt extension
- Edit the file by setting your preferred status and processes list
- Copy the new file inside /etc/init.d
- Give the rwxr-xr-x permissions to the file (read, write, execution for owner, read and execution for group users, read and execution for others)
- Reboot
2) By directly editing the files inside /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters (note that set values will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
3) By using Terminal Emulator (note that set values will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
- Open Terminal Emulator
- Run these commands if you want to enable the feature
Code:
# To enable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
echo 1 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc
# To enable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
echo 1 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc
- Run these commands if you want to disable the feature
Code:
# To disable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
echo 0 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc
# To disable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
echo 0 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc
- Run this command if you want to add, for example, Trebuchet Launcher (CM default launcher) and the default keyboard to the processes white list
Code:
echo "com.cyanogenmod.trebuchet,android.inputmethod.latin" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc_names
- Run this command if you want to add, for example, the system process, the phone process and DSP Manager to the system processes white list
Code:
echo "android.process.acore,com.android.phone,com.bel.android.dspmanager" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc_names

FEEDBACK from users
LeroViten said:
Well, as Mr @hurtsky once asked, I tried the kernel and now I'm back to report about the battery consumption.
First of all, I'm overexcited to announce that the performance is great! Music is loud and without any lag.
I used my Wonder a lot with WiFi and GPS enabled while on Maps and navigation. I surfed the net a lot especially XDA Forum via Tapatalk and listened to music for about 2.5 hours. I don't have Greenify or DSBS installed. I didn't turn off sync of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts.
And my battery consumption is:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
All I can say:
Holly sh*t..!!! :thumbup:
Thanks you @hurtsky for your reborn kernel. :beer:

BUGS ?
Some users reported that incoming call abit slower to wake
- this just because updated of suspended , it make the wake up abit slow but it help reducing power consumption
Audio lag ?
- change your governors from lulzactive to another governors - if you want hear song while screen off change the governors only during screen of
- use third application, change the frequency table to more higher and change also the screen_off_min_step = 5 and do restart.. this will cost you more battery..

@hurtsky can you add arco pure kernel + more governors + CPU voltage control VDD sys interface, just like you do in cm10.1 kernel before?

sorry to ask, but what's the advantage of a 3.4 kernel? Is it much faster?

Kernel 3.4 is a default kernel of JB just like 2.6 for GB and 3.0 for ICS. So to say, we put thing where they belong to...

Special Features
MSM_LIMITER
This function will limit the cpu in certain condition such as frequency during suspend, resume and min frequency. This features enabled in default and the frequency already been set for suspend freq to 900Mhz (screen off), min freq 245Mhz, resume freq 1.4Ghz. This feature may can reduce power consumption as it limit our cpu frequency after the screen off. If this features enabled, OC frequency will be override automatically after the screen off = 900Mhz and resume back to 1.4Ghz. Thus, you need to disable it if you like to make OC frequency stays,
so here the step to disable it: -
1. By using Terminal Emulator (note that set value will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
- Open Terminal Emulator
- Run this command to disable msm_limiter feature
Code:
su
echo "0" > /sys/kernel/msm_limiter/limiter_enabled
echo "0" for disable or echo "1" for enable it back
2. Download the msm_limiter_switch.sh.pdf
- after download the script please rename the file by removing .pdf and the name of the file should be like this msm_limiter_switch.sh
- by using Script Manager application open the msm_limiter_switch as script and tick the the "boot"
- by doing this, the msm_limiter will stick disable after the boot
in advance step, you can adjust the frequency of suspend, resume and min frequency to suit your taste here the command
1. For resume frequency
Code:
su
echo "<put ur own frequency here>" > /sys/kernel/msm_limiter/resume_max_freq
example:-
Code:
su
echo "1824000" > /sys/kernel/msm_limiter/resume_max_freq
this will make your CPU freq up to 1.8Ghz when screen on.. it just an example.
2. For suspend frequency
Code:
su
echo "<put ur own frequency here>" > /sys/kernel/msm_limiter/suspend_max_freq
Table of our devices frequency
Code:
122880
245760
368640
768000
806400
902400

can i use this kernel with ics rc1 - rc6?
- yes you can, but wifi wont work - maybe your external card also cant be read
please use this kernel with cyanogenmod 9 final release (eol) to void undesired problem.
bugs ?
some users reported that incoming call abit slower to wake
- this just because updated of suspended , it make the wake up abit slow but it help reducing power consumption ​

you can try interactive with Row. btw i just use smartAssv2 with row and didn't yet facing with lagging in game

Just simple question. is this kernel similar from original arco kernel on CM9RC7 (already fixed with boot.zip) but added with more governor? and how about feature PPPOE, still enable?
Best Regards
and Thank you

yes.. it should be like that.. you can test it. didn't satisfied with it. you can flash the boot.zip again.. no worries.

Settings of The Available Features
partly been taken from Christopher explanation thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2172148 all credit go to Christopher83 please thank he for prepare this detail of function
LowMemoryKiller management of not killable processes
This feature allows to define processes and system processes white-lists filled with the preferred process names and to not be killed by lowmemorykiller, unless it is absolutely necessary.
This feature exposes four new lowmemorykiller parameters:
- donotkill_proc, is the flag to enable / disable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
- donotkill_sysproc, is the flag to enable / disable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
- donotkill_proc_names, is the list of process names (comma separated) chosen by the user to be preserved from killing
- donotkill_sysproc_names, is the list of user system process names (comma separated) chosen by the user to be preserved from killing
When the lowmemorykiller needs to free ram, it will first kill the processes not included inside the two process name lists chosen by the user.
If there are no more standard killable processes, then it will be necessary to kill one of the processes included inside one of the two white-lists, to prevent system hangs, slowdowns, etc.
How to customize the white lists of processes to preserve from killing:
On HurtSky's Kernel the feature is enabled by default and the provided processes white lists are the following:
- donotkill_proc_names = "com.cyanogenmod.trebuchet,com,android.inputmethod.latin"
this means that Trebuchet Launcher,stock keyboard will be preserved from killing
- donotkill_sysproc_names = "android.process.acore,com.android.phone,com."
this means that the system process, the phone process will be preserved from killing
1) By using a customized init.d script (the custom value will be always restored after a reboot, if you don't format the system partition)
- Download the script named 80dnkp
- If the file has been saved with .txt extension (stock browser), rename it by removing the .txt extension
- Edit the file by setting your preferred status and processes list
- Copy the new file inside /etc/init.d
- Give the rwxr-xr-x permissions to the file (read, write, execution for owner, read and execution for group users, read and execution for others)
- Reboot
2) By directly editing the files inside /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters (note that set values will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
3) By using Terminal Emulator (note that set values will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
- Open Terminal Emulator
- Run these commands if you want to enable the feature
Code:
# To enable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
echo 1 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc
# To enable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
echo 1 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc
- Run these commands if you want to disable the feature
Code:
# To disable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
echo 0 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc
# To disable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
echo 0 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc
- Run this command if you want to add, for example, Trebuchet Launcher (CM default launcher) and the default keyboard to the processes white list
Code:
echo "com.cyanogenmod.trebuchet,android.inputmethod.latin" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc_names
- Run this command if you want to add, for example, the system process, the phone process and DSP Manager to the system processes white list
Code:
echo "android.process.acore,com.android.phone,com.bel.android.dspmanager" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc_names

This features currently been disable because normal KSM react more better with current settings
Ultra ksm
UKSM is more optimized and also working for single core systems. using this should give much better ram usage, but at the cost of more cpu usage - ( it seems latest version of UKSM optimized for battery usage also )
In this kernel the UKSM off by default -
How to stop and re-run :
to stop uksm run:
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/mm/uksm/run
for re- run:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/uksm/run

Some Information about TURBO BOOST mods http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37905307 < for futher information ! Please read !
This quote taken from TURBO BOOST thread ! Credit goes to TURBO BOOST DEVELOPERS
Disadvantages of a NORMAL swap file on your sdcard:
A sdcard is always slower than internal memory
You may NEVER unmount the sdcard or connect your phone to your computer, because you then just kill your swap file – it is the same as pulling out the Ram of your running computer!
Disadvantages of a swap partition on your sdcard a.k.a. HARD SWAP (the one that you all always swap ! ) :
A sdcard is always slower than internal memory
You will need a separate partition on your sdcard
You can connect the sdcard to your computer, but you cannot unmount and remove it without powering off your phone – you would kill your swap space immediately!
Disadvantages of a swap file in RAM - a.k.a. ZRAM:
This reduces the already low RAM memory
Leads to many low memory problems, like sense restarts and lags
TURBO BOOST ! PART
Advantages of 98swap_<partition> (TURBO BOOST MODS) compared to the methods above:
It uses internal memory – so it is fast!
This memory is not available to the user (/cache and /system) – so it does not decrease any space given to the user
It does not use your sdcard in any way – so feel free to unmount and remove your sdcard whenever you like – also without powering off your phone!
Disadvantages of 98swap_cache
None - you name it!

Did not boot for me too. Stuck after Samsung logo. Thank god I back up stock beta 1 kernel.
It suppose to be v2.1 for the latest right? You named it v2.2 there. Is it mistaken for the v2.2 for cm10.1?

LowMemoryKiller management of not killable processes
This feature allows to define processes and system processes white-lists filled with the preferred process names and to not be killed by lowmemorykiller, unless it is absolutely necessary.
This feature exposes four new lowmemorykiller parameters:
- donotkill_proc, is the flag to enable / disable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
- donotkill_sysproc, is the flag to enable / disable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
- donotkill_proc_names, is the list of process names (comma separated) chosen by the user to be preserved from killing
- donotkill_sysproc_names, is the list of user system process names (comma separated) chosen by the user to be preserved from killing
When the lowmemorykiller needs to free ram, it will first kill the processes not included inside the two process name lists chosen by the user.
If there are no more standard killable processes, then it will be necessary to kill one of the processes included inside one of the two white-lists, to prevent system hangs, slowdowns, etc.
How to customize the white lists of processes to preserve from killing:
On HurtSky's Kernel the feature is enabled by default and the provided processes white lists are the following:
- donotkill_proc_names = "com.cyanogenmod.trebuchet,com,android.inputmethod.latin"
this means that Trebuchet Launcher,stock keyboard will be preserved from killing
- donotkill_sysproc_names = "android.process.acore,com.android.phone,com."
this means that the system process, the phone process will be preserved from killing
1) By using a customized init.d script (the custom value will be always restored after a reboot, if you don't format the system partition)
- Download the script named 80dnkp
- If the file has been saved with .txt extension (stock browser), rename it by removing the .txt extension
- Edit the file by setting your preferred status and processes list
- Copy the new file inside /etc/init.d
- Give the rwxr-xr-x permissions to the file (read, write, execution for owner, read and execution for group users, read and execution for others)
- Reboot
2) By directly editing the files inside /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters (note that set values will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
3) By using Terminal Emulator (note that set values will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
- Open Terminal Emulator
- Run these commands if you want to enable the feature
Code:
# To enable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
echo 1 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc
# To enable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
echo 1 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc
- Run these commands if you want to disable the feature
Code:
# To disable this feature for the processes chosen by the user
echo 0 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc
# To disable this feature for the system processes chosen by the user
echo 0 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc
- Run this command if you want to add, for example, Trebuchet Launcher (CM default launcher) and the default keyboard to the processes white list
Code:
echo "com.cyanogenmod.trebuchet,android.inputmethod.latin" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_proc_names
- Run this command if you want to add, for example, the system process, the phone process and DSP Manager to the system processes white list
Code:
echo "android.process.acore,com.android.phone,com.bel.android.dspmanager" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/donotkill_sysproc_names

This features currently been disable because normal KSM react more better with current settings
Ultra ksm
UKSM is more optimized and also working for single core systems. using this should give much better ram usage, but at the cost of more cpu usage - ( it seems latest version of UKSM optimized for battery usage also )
In this kernel the UKSM off by default -
How to stop and re-run :
to stop uksm run:
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/mm/uksm/run
for re- run:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/uksm/run

Some Information about TURBO BOOST mods http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37905307 < for futher information ! Please read !
This quote taken from TURBO BOOST thread ! Credit goes to TURBO BOOST DEVELOPERS
Disadvantages of a NORMAL swap file on your sdcard:
A sdcard is always slower than internal memory
You may NEVER unmount the sdcard or connect your phone to your computer, because you then just kill your swap file – it is the same as pulling out the Ram of your running computer!
Disadvantages of a swap partition on your sdcard a.k.a. HARD SWAP (the one that you all always swap ! ) :
A sdcard is always slower than internal memory
You will need a separate partition on your sdcard
You can connect the sdcard to your computer, but you cannot unmount and remove it without powering off your phone – you would kill your swap space immediately!
Disadvantages of a swap file in RAM - a.k.a. ZRAM:
This reduces the already low RAM memory
Leads to many low memory problems, like sense restarts and lags
TURBO BOOST ! PART
Advantages of 98swap_<partition> (TURBO BOOST MODS) compared to the methods above:
It uses internal memory – so it is fast!
This memory is not available to the user (/cache and /system) – so it does not decrease any space given to the user
It does not use your sdcard in any way – so feel free to unmount and remove your sdcard whenever you like – also without powering off your phone!
Disadvantages of 98swap_cache
None - you name it!

FAQ
FAQ​
This kernel does not have X, Y or Z feature. Please add it !
No such requests shall be entertained.
For this device the closer to stock we are, the better it is. Hence no need for "fancy" useless features/tweaks. The main aim of halogen is to bring performance without compromising stability & battery. And that is what I intend to do.
AND if you really want this or that feature which is not there in halogen, please feel free to compile your own builds.
Oh no ! I encountered a BUG !
Upload the file named last_kmsg that located in /proc/last_kmsg. It contains kernel logs. Clearly state the bug / what you experienced along with your current kernel settings. Bug reports without logs will be ignored.
Recommneded settings ?
Halogen is pre-configured for best. For custom settings please google, do some research and you are encouraged to post your own settings in this forum. You can start here.
My battery drained overnight !! Look at these screenshots...
Not a halogen fault. The kernel does not “drain” battery. On Android devices, the kernel provides a mechanism for keeping the phone awake, called a wakelock. Processes running on the device (e.g. apps and services) can ask the kernel for a wakelock, and the kernel will oblige. So yes, the kernel is technically keeping the phone awake, but only because an app or service has asked it to. It is these apps and services that are misbehaving and causing drain, not the kernel. Doze mode, introduced in Android Marshmallow, is designed to limit the time that apps and services can wake up the device.
All thanks to @flar2 for his excellent post.

Wow,
What is better setting for this Kernel ?

There is not much to set in this kernel at present. Leave it as it is. Tweak sound to your hearts desire !

What governors & I/O schedulers are already included? Just the "basic" AOSP kernel ones for now?

Yes...
But updates will come soon !!!

You simply did it! Thank you so much!
There is a long way to go but I hope you can add more stuff, not forgetting the DoupleTap to wake up the screen

Testing

NEW BUILD IS UP !!!
[ 12 June, 2015. Version --> R2 ]
New features added :-
** 14 new cpu govs added !!!(check changelog for their names) **
** New I/O schedulers added (added tripndroid) **
** New TCP Congestions added **
** Stereo call recording **
and MUCH, much more......................CHECK CHANGELOG.
Did you know ? :-
With the release of R2, Halogen Kernel becomes the ONLY kernel with maximum number of cpu govs !!! (among all kernels for stock/cm of titan/falcon).
This kernel has around 20 cpu govs !!!
NOTE :-
Try reading this guide by @gsstudios before selecting out among the many CPU Govs.
E _N_J_O_Y !!!

This kernel really works for battery life... Smooth and fast and also improves battery life. Appreciate you're work!

there is something terribly wrong... at boot maximum cpu frequency is set to 384MHz, this give terribly long boot time, stuttery bootanimation and longer time for apps optimization after a rom update
EDIT: temporarily solved with an init.d script, here it is if someone has the same problem https://www.dropbox.com/s/qmcdlljjj0klzaf/cpufreq.zip?dl=0

Even I had been facing the bug...BUT I fixed it out and the BUG IS NO MORE !!!
I will be soon releasing the update ! The problem was with some improperly adapted CPU governors which limited the max cpu freq to 384 at boot. I have removed them and now the cpu clocks @ 11190 during boot.
I appreciate your work with the script. Its good, and I hope you will keep supporting my kernel in the future.

Available RAM is less than stock CM12.1 kernel - ~900 MB vs ~860 MB. Pretty sure you're already aware of it, but thought I'd highlight it anyway just in case.

Is the kernel stable? i'm using cm12.1 for daily use and some of the kernels i've tried always gave me the problem where the logcat is spammed with something liek "failed to acquire lock" everytime i touched the screen, can someone report?

Yes I m aware... It will be improved in future versions.
However it does not matter much, Linux handles memory in a different way and will release appropriate ram when required. What really matters is whether you are getting a smooth experience or not.

Yes, there are changes in that. As the OP said, it depends on the kernel. Since our device has 1024MB RAM, the remaining RAM gets allocated to Graphics, audio processing, etc. If you are familiar with it, its very similar to Intel & AMD's allocation of RAM to Graphic memory in computers.
