For this I got the superkernel. This here will always be as much stock as possible
Sent from my SuperMan powered SM-G930F
I think that Row scheduler whould be better than any other because:
The ROW I/O scheduler was developed with the mobile devices needs in mind. In mobile devices, we favor user experience upon everything else, thus we want to give READ I/O requests as much priority as possible. In mobile devices we won't have as much parallel threads as on desktops. Usually it's a single thread or at most 2 simultaneous working threads for read & write. Favoring READ requests over WRITEs decreases the READ latency greatly. The main idea of the ROW scheduling policy is: If there are READ requests in pipe - dispatch them but don't starve the WRITE requests too much.
Benefits:
- Faster UI navigation and better overall phone experience
- Faster boot times and app launch times
Disadvantages:
- Not great for heavy multitasking
- Slower write speeds
---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 PM ----------
CFQ:
Completely Fair Queuing scheduler maintains a scalable per-process I/O queue and attempts to distribute the available I/O bandwidth equally among all I/O requests. Each per-process queue contains synchronous requests from processes. Time slice allocated for each queue depends on the priority of the 'parent' process. V2 of CFQ has some fixes which solves process' i/o starvation and some small backward seeks in the hope of improving responsiveness.
Benefits:
- Has a well balanced I/O performance
- Excellent on multiprocessor systems
- Regarded as a stable I/O scheduler
- Good for multitasking
Disadvantages:
- Some users report media scanning takes longest to complete using CFQ. This could be because of the property that since the bandwidth is equally distributed to all i/o operations during boot-up, media scanning is not given any special priority.
- Jitter (worst case delay) can sometimes be very high because the number of competing with each other process tasks
- Under constant load, the phone will experience increased I/O latency due to the way how the scheduler tries to create 'fairness'

What do you think?
Not to start an off-topic discussion on its pros and cons, but would you ever consider adding F2FS support?
Thank you for new kernel. I flashed it with Supersu and after reboot I have no root (Supersu has no binary)...
Can you show me files with I need flash after kernel (I have your superrom v12. With su and xposed)?

No, linux updated. Otherwise version number would be the same

Thx. A version that's stable like this one with all the features of Super kernel would be great. Thus a Super kernel with stock values because when I lower values it stil freezes and I don't know stock values from many things.

Q&A
Below I added some basic Q&A stuff which here so hopefully it will answer most of your questions!
Q: How to get into Download Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume down + power on button until you see the download mode.
Q: How to get into Recovery Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume up + power on button until you see the recovery mode.
Q: I get verification failed at start up!?!? My phone is broken now?
A: Yes, you have to buy a new phone now. Just kidding You did not disable force encryption in TWRP (how to do so you will find below in how to decrypt your phone).
Q: I get FRP LOCK? WHYYYYYY???
A: Very simple answer, you did not enable OEM Unlock in developer options. Now you need to flash full rom with odin again and start from scratch. But don't forget to enable OEM Unlock this time!
Q: I got FC's and other Problems with the kernel, what to do?
A: Take a logcat for me, developers use to say: without a log, it never happened . A logcat can be grapped with a PC and ADB installed, simply type: adb logcat > log.txt while your phone is connected and the error is happening.
Q: What kind of logs can I provide to help you?
A: Logcat: This one is for general infos about FC's
DMESG: this is for kernel related things
Last_Kmsg: this can be used after a random reboot
Q: How to get logs?
A: 1. Connect your phone to your pc
2. Make sure you got usb debugging enabled
3. Install Minimal ADB tool
4. After install open it and type: adb logcat > logcat.txt, adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log, adb shell cat proc/last_kmsg kmsg.log
5. Send me the file you got
Q: Which devices are supported at the moment?
A: Current supported devices are: SM-G930F/FD/W8. All other exynos models can work but are UNTESTED
Q: Is this kernel working on Snapdragon 820 variants?
A: No, sadly not.
Q: Help, I never had a code and now after installing the rom my phone asks for a password??
A: Your device is still encrypted, on step 0 it tells you to be sure you're not. So, what do you need to to in case you are still encrypted:
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Select Wipe
3. Select wipe data
4. Then you manually need to type "yes" with the keyboard
5. Confirm the wipe (this will remove the encryption)
6. Reboot your recovery
Q: Is there a way to get rid of encryption which is simpler?
A: Not really, you could also wipe data with stock recovery but this is quite a big hassle so above method works better.
Q: On TWRP there is an error about /data mount, what to do?
A: Your device is encrypted, follow the above steps to get rid of your encryption.
Q: Synapse shows no UCI support!
A: Reflash kernel, a script of you may overwrite my synapse config
Q: I want to switch kernel, how?
A: Since we have systemless xposed and systemless supersu, we have patches in ramdisk of boot.img. This means you have to reflash xposed and supersu after every change of kernel!.
Q: I lost root after installing this rom. What to do?
A: All mods (like supersu, phh's root, xposed and magisk) are stored in /ramdisk of kernel boot.img. So if you flash this rom, and after this another kernel (Which has supersu included by default) you can not do much. You have to stick to the two kernels provided in rom. Also when switching kernel, you need to flash all related zips again after changing it. Last tip: Do not use magisk until you really need it for android pay!
Q: I got random reboots, heeelp!
A: This is most likely from a custom kernel, if you face random reboots please check if you have the latest kernel installed or switch back to the stock kernel included in the rom.
Q: My screen is kind of yellow/orange and the touchscreen doesn't work at all!
A: You have chosen the wrong kernel in aroma selection. Reflash the rom without any wipe selecting the right kernel version.
First! DL now and flashing! Thanks for the hard work!

Zzmoove does hotplug, but the little cores can't do hotplugging. So it will reboot

Any chance that you will add..
1) ARCH_POWER
2) ROW Scheduler
3) Make Power Efficient WorkQueues user-configurable in next version
4) Trim kernel and remove useless debuggers, bloated kernel drivers and so on for making the kernel as slim and battery / performance friendly as possible
5) (Perhaps) configurable C-States (Idle states) ?
Just as some bonus, useful stuff in v2.0?

Version Information
Status: Stable
Current Stable Version: 2.4.2
Current Beta Version: 3.1.0
Created 2017-02-27
Last Updated 2017-07-26
Changelogs
While searching the Internet you might also find versions which aren't listed here: these are Beta versions and their changelog isn't available (but included in the one of the next stable version, so you don't miss anything).
All the changes I made are listed on GitHub.
Version 2.4.2
Code:
- update sdcardfs
- updated build scripts and recovery scripts
- changed toolchain to a better version (Linaro Android gcc 6.3.1)
- widely improved ramdisk scripts
- updated ramdisk to latest version from RR with 7.1.2 support
Changelogs for previous versions:
Version 2.4.0
Code:
- updated with latest Linux patches
- various fixes (including thermal management and network communication)
Version 2.3.0
Code:
I'm constantly working to provide a better kernel. This implies a lot of research, testing and stressing my eyes staring at code. I'm adding a lot of small fixes.
So, try to understand me if I don't always have time to report a changelog.
As always, you can check GitHub for a detailed changelog.
Version 2.2.1
Code:
Sorry if I didn't write down a changelog for the last releases, I've been quite busy.
Anyway: since version 2.1.6b there are a LOT of changes, performance, battery, stability... Just check it out (and check GitHub for a full changelog).
Version 2.1.6b
Code:
- updated busybox and sqlite3 binaries with more convenient versions
- changed optimizations, enabled safety features and possibly fixed f2fs cryptography
- getting ready for the Synapse restyling
- build the kernel uncompressed
The latter fix solves most lagging issues and noticeably improve performance over compressed version; I'll look into the kernel size issue soon!
Version 2.1.5
Code:
- ramdisk rebased over RR's one
- kernel size reduced
Version 2.1.4
Code:
- updated interactive governor with Samsung optimized version
- implemented the AMOLED flicker free patch
- updated ramdisk for both herolte and hero2lte to the one from latest LineageOS builds
- updated ramdisk to be compatible with SlimROM (untested)
- removed a few redundant tweaks
- fireactive it's on its way to debut, but still disabled because incomplete, sorry :(
Version 2.1.2
Code:
- init: added a few tweaks
- ramdisk: changes in sepolicy
- ramdisk: try to fool safetynet and fix wakelocks
- updated to DQBO kernel source
- fstab: reworked mount options
- fs: add exfat support
- fs: implement optimised and stable f2fs (from oneplus/QC8996_N)
- enabled Swap (I had the idea while looking into the OP3 sources)
Version 2.1.0
Code:
Many beta versions came before this one, and all of them had their list of fixes... I'll try to summarize:
- some configs were tweaked
- enabled init.d support
- Synapse support
- implemented elementalx
- various fixes
- faked Knox 0x0 and try to hide from SafetyNet
- switched back to cfq as default scheduler
- probably other stuff I can't remember now... I need to sleep ahahah
Version 1.2.4
Code:
- temporarily reverted to Linux 3.18.14 (and so fixed the video playback issue)
- updated mount options to reduce I/O overhead
- tweaked the kernel configuration to have better performance
- enabled additional compression algorithms and cryptography utilities
Version 1.2.3
Code:
- updated zen sched driver to version 1.1
- SELinux is now set to Permissive by default
Version 1.2.2
Code:
- now using zen as default I/O scheduler
- changed the default frequency range for the CPU
- updated to Linux 3.18.17 (still working to bring the latest patches)
- switched to a custom Makefile optimised for our architecture
Version 1.2.0
Code:
- overclock and underclock support for both CPU and GPU
- voltage control (see notes in the OP [B][**][/B])
- moved to Uber Toolchain 7.x (aarch64-linux-android-7.x)
- improved recovery installation script
Version 1.1.0
Code:
- First public release
[TUTORIAL] How to set up your phone with f2fs
1) First you have to install a compatible recovery. Recent TWRP releases can format and mount f2fs, but they don't handle a few installation scripts correcty. I recommend TWRP 3.0.2-4 by @lyapota which has the correct patches. You can find it here.
2) Then you have to backup all your data (internal storage will be wiped too, so make sure to copy ALL your files in the INTERNAL storage). So, any TWRP backup should be taken on external SD card.
3) After this, reboot into TWRP. From Wipe / Advanced Wipe check only /data, then select Change Filesystem and check f2fs. Do the same for /cache. At the moment I don't think there are ROMs that support f2fs on /system too (LineageOS, for example, forces ext4 and formats despite settings).
4) Reboot into recovery once again, so we're sure that it can mount everything.
5) At this point you're done. Flash your ROM of choice, this kernel, any GApps and whatever you want.
Reboot and profit!
ROMs supporting f2fs formatted /system will be listed here when available.
cool
I tried this on RR and saw for so good. I built-it into my RR build to get it to boot and love the different governors and features.
So cool, thank you !
I completed a new release with some stuff added:
Code:
- overclock and underclock support for both CPU and GPU
- voltage control (see notes in the OP [B][**][/B])
- moved to Uber Toolchain 7.x (aarch64-linux-android-7.x)
- improved recovery installation script
The note i refer to, in short, says that voltage control is implemented but not reachable by the user.
Next steps in this kernel development are complete access to GPU overclock and voltage control, followed by latest Linux patches and eventual requests by the users.
Have a nice day

Really cool ROM how ever it removes SuperSU on AOSP extended and you will need to reflash however since flashing this it seems my audio stuttering while in apps has I believe disappeared will test further hope to some sound config's (Faux sound or alternative if possible) keep up the good work

I tried 1.2.0 on my g930w8 with RR and it won't boot. Gets stuck on the RR logo. I even tried clean flash and still won't boot. Yesterday I build the kernel directly into RR and it booted but since the change to 7.0 toolchain I can't even build because I am on Mac which Uber 7.0 doesn't support.

Works for me, I'm using the latest RR on my G930W8 (apk3 bootloader) and I dirty flashed 1.2.0.

Yeah wonder what's going on. I am on same boot loader/modem and couldn't get it to work with 1.2.0.. I tried dual boot and even installing RR as main ROM and wouldn't work. I actually had to copy and use my boot.img from 02/26 that contained the OPs source built-in to get boot. If it works for others on official RR, maybe it's something with my custom build. I do use the same manifest as 8890dev. Thanks for letting me know.
W8 here as well had no problem just flashing kernel over everything I already had.. was first release. Waiting on new update assuming it's being uploaded cause download link don't work
New release announcement
New release uploaded while I finish some stuff. I spent yesterday on the Linux patches but I will have to do some "tricks" to make them work... and it's a long work.

Code:
- now using zen as default I/O scheduler
- changed the default frequency range for the CPU
- updated to Linux 3.18.17 (still working to bring the latest patches)

Is that a question or a feature request or whatnot? This kernel hasn't got fast charging and I'll probably add it soon.
Ok thanks. I just used sdcardfs with u r kernel and RRM sutenized rom is running snappiest ever. Thanks your kernel is really amazing.

I have no idea. I'm still a beginner in the world of OPO's ROM's. If AOSP-CAF uses Sultan's camera, my guess is that the whole kernel will probably work. If you try, let me know the result.
Autosmp was developed by mrg666.
Which thermal driver? And a way to use sdcardfs instead of fuse on sultan's los? And thank you for sharing this with us.

Sultan's thermal driver. To use sdcardfs on ROMs that normally use fuse, just add ro.sys.sdcardfs=true at the end of your build.prop and reboot.

Introduction
Buying Mi 5 gave me opportunity to spread wings and maintain a (hopefully) better version of Linux kernel for this device.
The idea is to provide two levels of modification, one - the most up-to-date kernel upstreamed with official Linux changes (also Android) repo to provide bug-free and stable experience, second - tweaks and additional features placed in top of upstreamed version to give blazing efficiency and battery friendly experience.
I came with the idea while looking onto linux repo - there are so many fixes and optimizations done to the code which gonna never come up to any Android device. So why not to try and pick some of these changes?
Android device is one of many for which Linux kernel is developed. Adding hardware specific changes will give extra performance and battery backup as it's going to use the phone architecture better instead of generic implementation.

Compatibility
It is LOS forked repo so any LOS-based ROM should be compatible (not MIUI compatible).
Do not use it with any custom ROM or additional modifications as I'm not supporting them (and will not).
Of course, you can try flashing, if it works - enjoy.
Downloads
You can use 'Download' tab in the top or download from AFH .
Installation:
- download kernel zip and necessarily check MD5!
- boot into recovery
- flash the zip (always flash on clean ROM!!)
- (optionally you can wipe cache/dalvik)
- reboot to the system and taste the madnesss

Before you exit:
Don't get dishearten because of 'poor' features list. Main advantage of this kernel is upstream of many parts. Changes in Soda are chosen wisely, I implement thinks that are supposed to benefit. You don't need XYZ, you need Soda
Known issues:
Upstream:
None
Soda:
- Battery idle drain (investigation in progress)
- Speaker gain is broken
FAQ:
Could you add XYZ feature?
I will not add features I personally think are useless or unneeded. I can only promise I'll take it into consideration. If you're so single-minded about that just fork repo and pull request - I'll pick it gladly.
Could you upstream XYZ?
Ok, upstreaming is nice unless you fall into conflicts or totally new code structure. Don't expect me to update the kernel up to 4.13, haha! I'll keep in mind what you're asking me for, but if you're so desperate about this I'm waiting for pull request .
Why should I choose yours upstreamed version?
Don't expect it to change your Mi 5 into S7 edge =)
Think about like that - some time ago Google forked Linux kernel at version 3.18.31 and added their changes, then Qualcomm forked it and added their changes, then Xiaomi forked and added their changes. There are a lot of bugs, memory leaks and other bad stuff in here and probably nobody will take care about it... Oooch, except me! My aim is to keep the code as most up-to-date as possible - so without rewriting a half of proprietary drivers.
Does it make any sense?
In my opinion - yes.
Our phone will be more stable, not vulnerable to newest 0-days and hopefully a bit faster and battery friendlier. The key is bug-free optimized code; magical tweaks do not always take the first place in making a kernel better. As of my experience using upstreamed version gives more battery and smoothness!
"My phone freezees help meeee!!!!!!!11oneoneone..."
Description, logcat, kmesg or GTFO.
Could your changes damage my device?
I don't take any responsibility for broken devices, firing from work or nuclear wars. It's a hobby project maintained in my free time. I carefully pick up changes not to mess up anything and add features that are checked and provided to work correctly. There is a small range of cases when you can loose your phone completely, typically it will just freeze and reboot.
Where is version for MIUI and EAS?
MIUI won't be supported because Xiaomi haven't updated their repo for a long time. Building for MIUI would bring more problems than advantages.
EAS is in testing stage and will be released soon.
Remember to hit like button if you like my work as it motivates me a lot!
Play with it and post your experience please
Firmware:
Now I'm also providing updated firmware flashables.
You can easily download firmware packages from AFH .
Happy flashing!

How to tweak my kernel:
1. Charge control:
Path of all tunables is
Code:
/sys/kernel/fast_charge
You have 3 tunables as follows:
maximum_qc_current (DEFAULT: 2800) - it's very important one, its value controls QC3.0 charging current. Recently there are commons problems with screens and the assumption is that too high current causes that problem. Lowering the value would also make your battery's life longer!
force_fast_charge (DEFAULT: 0) - it's common known knob to force 900mA charging on unknown sources. I tweaked it a bit and now, if it's possible, driver will choose higher values depending on the source.
charge_limit (DEFAULT: 100) - it's very interesting one, its value controls maximum percentage of which your battery will be charged. After given limit charging will be stopped. Lowering this value could benefit in prolonged battery life as capacity wouldn't decrease that fast. Scientific researches recommend charging your battery to 80%.
3.Sound control:
You can tweak it using Kernel Adiutor.
4.Sched features:
I would like to resolve doubts connected with Arch Power. On kernel v3.18 there isn't such a feature. Cherry-picking old interface doesn't change anything in fair scheduler, the only thing you see is magic switch which does... nothing. Our kernel has feature named Arch Capacity which is *let's say* correspondent to previous one so I created two tunables - arch_capacity and arch_power. These are mirrored values so now you can enable/disable it in KA as known Arch Power but please remember that you're changing arch_capacity in fact.
My recommendation is to disable Gentle Fair Sleepers because you can save battery a bit.
You can also tweak it using Kernel Adiutor.
miui support please...
Aosp support ?
Did you add somes cpu governor ? And for you which its the best to have a better battery

Aleluya! Not much kernel variety on our mi 5, pretty thanks I will test it early dev
cheers
Download link (I've found it, but it would be better in the description)? Governors? SOT?
Great news Sir,
I hope soon we could have good costum kernel with great stability and compability with newer rom.
I wish you could support AOSP based rom too

I just started Soda developing so you have to wait sometime for custom tweaks.
According to governors I think the most important thing is to configure it nicely, sth like AKT or GovTuner does. Stock interactive is good.

AFAIK AOSP is based on LOS sources, it should work correctly
But some time it doesn't work properly on AOSP based rom, I used DragonXia as default kernel on every rom I flashed, but lately with latest release rom it's doesn't stable.
I hope you could made manually setting on/off the CPU core for better battery life, as hotplugging not save much battery life.
Overclocking was great too
I will test yours beta kernel right now Sir
CPU 0 and CPU 1 are stuck at 1593MHz.
Edit:
It seems like a restart solved it.

setting io scheduler to noop causes freeze.

Yes it's working now. The test-iosched scheduler caused the problem.
will you add miui 9 support? miui lack of custom kernel support. thanks for dev gemini kernel.
which features does it have? quick charge? eas ?
"disabled CPU Boost" this is real great, i guess you know what i want. waitinng for a more stable realese and then give it a try
I pushed a first beta of Soda kernel. I added a few useful features, but battery usage reduction should be significant. Try it on your own
Thanks for your work! I will try and report back when possible.

Simple. All you need to do is to push the BlueLightFilter apk from a supported rom 8.0/8.1 to priv-app and make a reboot. Add the toggle for it, or launch it via activity launcher.
Good kernel i installed in oreo fusion

I am using Oreo Fusion, do I still need to factory reset or wipe my data?
