- S10enable_gov_conservative (load and enable conservative governor module)
- S10enable_gov_ondemand_default (enable ondemand governor)
- S10enable_gov_smartassV2 (load and enable conservative smartassV2 module)
- S15enable_sched_deadline (load and enable the deadline I/O scheduler module)
- S15enable_sched_noop_default (enable noop scheduler)
- S15enable_sched_sio (enable and load SIO scheduler module)
- S20enable_netfilter (load netfilter modules for firewall or WiFi, USB tethering)
- S30enable_logger (enable logging)

Thanks for taking the time to release for vibrant, let me know it you need any testing.
Just some minor suggestions, modify init.aries.gps.rc for vibrant (crappy) gps and get rid of fm radio stuff.

Thanks for your help and your advices.
I will check for next version.

Thanks for your contribution .good job!

So what's the perk of CIFS/TUN as a module? Oh so you can enable/disable it at will?

Any plans for a Voodoo Color version?

You have been thanked stratosk & the newest addition to the Official Vibrant Kernel Thread. So please do visit the pinned thread to post an update and I will get right to updated it ASAP!
Welcome & Thanks a bunch!

Thanks stratosk,we finally get Semaphore here.:victory:

Awesome. So much love for the Vibrant lately. And another of the kernel heavyweights supporting this phone. Maybe we won't need the SGS3 so soon, afterall.
Thanks for playing.

I use to compile some stuff as modules and let the user load/unload them from Semaphore app. I like the modular kernel logic.

I'm sorry, no voodoo color version.

I like that's noop or nothing and ondemand or performance. It's working nicely with ICZen 1.8.3 aka #39 linaro build by MR_Psycho and Br1ckD.

Working nicely. Very smooth coming from devil kernel. But YOUTUBE doesn't work?
Sent from my SGH-T959

Question? Is it compiled from linaro tool chains or full blown -03? Whatever it is is flying!! Good ****! Thanks much

This is, by far, the best kernel for battery life i've used on Vibrant.
But my GPS dosent work at all.
It worked more than fine on Devils Kernel.
Any ideias ?
Thanks

[KERNEL][LINARO][UC][F2FS] Project T - Custom Kernel for ZenFone 2[THE END]

Hi guys,
It was a cool journey with all the support I got from you, this community is really the best! Unfortunately this will be the last version I will release. See the changelog for more details!
Please note that I do my testing on a ZE551ML 4GB 2,3GHz. For ZE550ML look here (thanks to cieffe54)
Note: This kernel works ONLY on stock based versions!​
I can only support, if you don't have any speed tweaks or similar flashed as I can not differ if the issues come from the kernel or from installed tweaks!​
Features:
Based on Zenfone 2.20.40 kernel source (completely from scratch)
Built with Hyper_linaro4.9 toolchain (all credits to @fraps123!!!)
STABLE: UC to 333MHz for all models
Power efficient work queues for fbcon and PHYDEV
Battery Life eXtender (BLX) (manipulate via init.d script 10BLX==>Downloads tab or Kernel adiutor==>Battery menu)
Touchboost input event handler (can be switched on and off via init.d, see Downloads-tab)
Greatly improved memory management
Added the following CPU governors:
- Ondemand with hotplugging event handlers when screen is off
- Lionheart
- Bioshock
- ConservativeX
- Yankactive
- TheSSJactive (Yankactive with hotplugging)
Added IO schedulers:
- sio
- zen
- vr
- fifo
- sioplus (credits to @boype, fixed afterwards for zf2 by me) {DEFAULT}
- fiops
Added TCP congestion algorithms:
-BIC
-CUBIC
-WESTWOOD
-HSTCP
-HYBLA
-HTCP
-VEGAS
-VENO
-SCALABLE
-LP
-YEAH
-ILLINOIS
Tweaked GPU governor to scale up more quickly
Set minimum brightness to 2 instead of 15 percent (changeable by init.d script)
Set readahead of int./ext. sd card partitions to 512kB by default
Selinux permissive
init.d support (creates directory if it doesn't exist!)
exfat support (no fuse, all credits to @dorimanx, automounting of devices fixed by @sorg)
GPU clock unlocked (not overclocked) - runs between 200 and 533MHz
ZRAM implemented (see below for details)
Sweep2Sleep (all credits to Lord Boeffla)
frandom RNG
F2FS support
Deprecated: KVM support (only up to version 51)
Some words about the currently implemented features:
F2FS
all credits to @mb300sd81 for modifying the fstab accordingly: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zen...custom-kernel-zenfone-2-t3150822/post64366155
Battery Life eXtender BLX
Use the init.d script in the downloads section (10BLX) or see Kernel adiutor in the battery menu.
Sweep2Sleep and/or Touchboost
To activate simply check Kernel Adiutor for a new entry in the menu
Alternatively you can use an init.d script I have uploaded in the downloads section: 90S2S.txt/91touchboost.txt
KVM
Please note, that I stopped supporting KVM functionality from v52 onwards. If you want a tweaked kernel with KVM support, you can download v51.
You need to insmod all modules with an init.d script or manually (see download section for an according script). Please note that I won't add the feature set as @ycavan is doing, as I am lacking the knowledge and also I don't want to overbloat the kernel, even if KVM is triggered via insmodding modules. If you need special features which this kernel might be missing, feel free to request it/them, but I won't guarantee that it will be implemented at all
init.d
The way I implemented init.d is sweet, simple and won't be recognized by ANY third party app which implements init.d!
I use the my own script which is already located on the ramdisk of the boot partition and added just a few lines, which check if init.d already exists and creates it if not (and will execute the scripts in there otherwise of course). So please don't install any more init.d enabler as you will have every script executed twice then!
ZRAM
You need to activate ZRAM via init.d script (see download section) as it is turned off by default, to make it more universal for the ZF2 users with 4GB as they really don't need to compress data before storing it into RAM as for the 2GB users. Of course Kernel Adiutor also offers the possibility to turn on ZRAM.
Dev Roadmap:
Fix ROW scheduler
What's useful
What most likely won't be implemented (missing knowledge, no testing tools):
Undervolting
Sound tweak directly on chip side (no documentation found about our RT5647 sound chips ) - you will need to deal with Viper4Android
Caution:
Do everything at your own risk!​
How to install:

Removed hotdemand governor and implemented the changes directly to ondemand governor
Set readahead of the sd card partitions to 512kB
02-08-2015b v56
Reverted back to O2 optimization level, now we're back to address the whole RAM again, thanks to @Tiongkia
Accidentally compiled in 32Bit, don't download anymore, v56 will hopefully address 4G again
02-08-2015 v55
Implemented working touchboost for Yankactive and Thessjactive governors (interactive works nonetheless)
01-08-2015c v53
Random files should be gone hopefully
O3 Optimization level implemented
01-08-2015b v52 (BUGGY)
Removed KVM to make the kernel lighter
Included loadable module hotdemand (ondemand with hotplugging techniques on screen off)
01-08-2015 v51
Removed useless Debug messages from the display (cluttering the kernel ring buffer)
Last build with KVM support
26-07-2015b v50
Completely built out of Hyper Linaro4.9 Toolchain
26-07-2015 v47
Added my own implementation of yankactive governor with hotplugging of 2 cores on screen off/on.
Fixed SSE instruction set compilation
24-07-2015 v46
Fixed touchboost issue when using interactive, no good solution for the other governors at the moment
22-07-2015 v45
Added kvm support(thanks @ycavan)
19-07-2015 v44
Fixed init.d being executed to soon by moving it after boot completed flag (still as part of the init process)
Fixed sioplus
18-07-2015 v42
Removed ondemandplus for now
Added sioplus (thanks @boype) and fiops (credits to @ion-storm for his backport) IO-scheduler
18-07-2015 v40
Ported yankactive to current interactive code base and applied yankactive tweaks there, see my github commit for details. Positive side effect is that the governor now finds the maximum freq automatically (removed the hardcoded max-freq, so 1.8GHz Zenfones should be supported like 2,3GHz now, too). WORKS!
17-07-2015 v38
Fixed interactive gov by taking and adapting it from fugu kernel
Fixed init.d mounting system as rw before running scripts (now the directory gets automatically created)
16-07-2015 (at least in my timezone) v35
Corrected tunables of yankactive (max_freq should be dynamically set) and Ondemandplus (min frequency increased to 500MHz)
ZRAM implemented (to be enabled via init.d)
Uploaded GPUclock and ZRAM scripts to the download section of XDA (kind of a database)
14-07-2015b v29
Added more governos:
Ondemandplus
Yankactive
Adaptive
14-07-2015 v28
Unlocked whole GPU clocking speed
13-07-2015
Moved "older" downloads from XDA to my Google Drive (it's frustrating uploading with 1MBit/s and then getting a Server I/O error)
12-07-2015b
Fixed exFAT automount issue (all credits to @sorg)
12-07-2015
Improved init.d support (creates directory if it doesn't exist)
exFAT driver implemented (thanks to @dorimanx)
11-07-2015
Added init.d support
10-07-2015
Added several (working) IO schedulers:
- sio
- vr
- zen
- fifo
10-07-2015
Fixed wakelock issues
Added several governors
Added AnTuTu results in separate post
05-07-2015
First release

Want to report a Bug? Please read here first
This last version is pretty stable so far, therefore no bug reports anymore

Awesome...
Might test this out later when I get back home and make a back-up...

Great work! Hopefully we can tweak to give us more battery life!

Great work

oh my god.. i dont need any custom rom for this moment if there's custom kernel released.. and I never expect the 1st custom kernel was released by you @TheSSJ, you guys including @jrior001 and @crpalmer and also other developers are rock!!
anyway a question.. can we flash it .img file using fastboot cmd on bootloader?

This be fine for the 2.19 no garbage rom?

tested this kernel since using it an hour ago..
some bugs that i found:
1. dancedance, wheatley governor (freezes phone when activated)
2. smartassv2 cause random reboot
3. all the I/O Scheduler besides stock cfq & noop are unable to be used ( I/O scheduler fifo, sio, vr, zen, tripndroid will return back to stock cfq after activated)
4. suddenly apps such Castro (I usually used it to monitor core speed) crash after using this kernel
and I used Device Control apps to apply the tweak.

and also..my device is hardly fall into deep sleep mode..hsi3_wake_lock is higher than in stock kernel..

@TheSSJ
can you tell how you overcomed module signature check in your kernel? I see in your config x86_64_moor_defconfig, you still use CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=y option which should prevent modue loading compiled in other environment. Besides signature, modules have magic string which should be the same as in zImage. But i see you've took modules directly from stock kernel. So, how you've managed to load modules? I don't see any hack in commit history.
And, btw, what exactly toolchain you're using?
---------- Post added at 12:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 PM ----------
btw, you can update kernel by simplier command.
Boot into fastboot and then issue the command:
fastboot flash boot customboot.img
So, you don't need neither custom recovery, nor root. Just unlocked bootloader.

@sorg depending on where he forked from.... we disabled all the modules and built them in to kernel.
@TheSSJ, we gotta work on your git-fu dude, although your kernel source meets the requirements, proper history helps with maintaining and gives more proper credit to where you forked from. If your interested in learning a few thing hit me on PM or IRC I'll try to teach you a few things.

another thing guys, it seems that im unable to return back to stock kernel..didnt tried fastboot command yet, just flashed stock boot.img in twrp and its stuck on bootloop. the wakelock is pretty bad, so people who want to test this kernel should make a nandroid backup their boot first..i forgot to backup mine and now i need to use this kernel to get my zf2 working but with high drain..

If module is built-in, then there is no reason to keep it in /lib/modules
I believe, modules are built-in because otherwise need to hack module.c to allow to load foreigner modules.
The main reason of my original question comes from need to load pre-compiled not opensourced modules such as texfat.ko and tntfs.ko. Actually, texfat.ko can be replaces by opensource exfat module from Samsung. But there is no opensource solution for tntfs.ko (i don't call that castrated ntfs opensource driver in linux kernel as alternative).
I've tried to hack module.c to allow to load foreigner modules (cannot disable the check by config flags because it affects the structures), and i can succefully load the module, but mounting the exFat(i'm experimenting with texfat.ko module) disk gives me out of memory error. So, either ASUS gave config not exactly they're using, or i don't know where is the problem.
I'm using AOSP GCC 4.8 recommended by ASUS.

Yep, had that,too,fortunately I was able to restore stock kernel and now it is back to normal (75% deep sleep, 20% lowest clock). Need to investigate why it is causing that, as I didn't change the default governor at all (was set to interactive on mine, still 99% on 500MHz). The only real changes I made which were applied directly were just the dynamic read-ahead fix and the inclusion of all models in the kernel directly.

@TheSSJ
can you tell how you overcomed module signature check in your kernel? I see in your config x86_64_moor_defconfig, you still use CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=y option which should prevent modue loading compiled in other environment. Besides signature, modules have magic string which should be the same as in zImage. But i see you've took modules directly from stock kernel. So, how you've managed to load modules? I don't see any hack in commit history.
And, btw, what exactly toolchain you're using?

No hack used, as jrior001 wrote I will delete the modules in the lib folder as soon as I get home, as they bloat up the ramdisk unecessarily - it was too hot yesterday as it seems...
To be honest I downloaded a builduntu VM with which I am working. I am using the toolchain which was shipped with cyanogenmod 12.1 source, I plan to switch to AOSP or any other x86_64 optimized, though... maybe this fixed the exagerated wakelocks?
jrior001 said:
@sorg depending on where he forked from.... we disabled all the modules and built them in to kernel.
@TheSSJ, we gotta work on your git-fu dude, although your kernel source meets the requirements, proper history helps with maintaining and gives more proper credit to where you forked from. If your interested in learning a few thing hit me on PM or IRC I'll try to teach you a few things.

Would be really glad for any help in making this easier to build and to document - git is a pain in the a$$. Will send you a PM as soon as I can.
By the way: does anyone know if the used toolchain can be the reason why these kernel wakelocks appear??

Interesting - I didn't change a thing on the camera code...maybe I really need to use the AOSP toolchain as recommended by Asus...
//Edit: suspect this issue comes from the hsic wake locks cangcan posted on page 1. Basically the camera (and many other components, like modem) seems to be connected using USB protocol and there may be issues of occupied resources which cannot be used by other components. Will dive into the code when I come back home. I will also test the stock source and check if the wakelock occurs there,too! This would be an indication, that the kernel source from ASUS needs some special treatment in order to work well

I found the code piece (2 in total, xhci and ehci) where the wakelock is initialized, now it's tedious code crawling...

Some updates reg 2.18 kernel
So I have been tinkering a lot with the kernel and decided to start from scratch, with rather shocking results.
I have downloaded the original kernel source for v2.18 and compiled it strictly as described in the README included by ASUS.
After fixing some path issues the kernel compiled and I packed it into a boot.img.
After flashing and booting the wakelocks are still present!!! So this has definitely nothing to do with my modifications here, I used the x86_64_moor_defconfig with the diff_file for zenfone2 fhd and included all modules.
At this point in time I can say for sure that the config from Asus is either incomplete or something is missing from the source itself.
I will try to compile the 2.19 kernel today and see if the wakelocks disappear - but it seems that every other custom kernel should have the wakelock problems...
Just to let u know..
Also (some positive news): Intel granted me free access to their own c++ compiler binaries, which are increasing the performance of Intel based SoCs compared to normal gcc by a fair amount. Will also try to build the kernel with the Intel toolchain

[KERNEL][5.1.1][GCC 5.3] Omni kernel (30/12/2015)

Overview:
This is a custom kernel based on Omni sources for our legendary i9000. This is only for 5.1.1 roms and no other version of android will be suppported
It seems to work on CodeROM too, thanks @falconscrest123

I haven't tested it. Reset your phone and try to delete all the .so files in the /system/lib/ directory of the flashable zip and then flash it again. It should work like that.

Any bugs? Tell me about your current phone setup and describe the problem!

Project T, reborn! It's incredible to see this project alive agan!
@TheSSJ, about F2FS: it supports mixed setups (F2FS /data and ext4 /system and /cache) or only F2FS-all setups?

I love you

For some reason, after flashing, the kernel does not install.
I reboot to twrp, dirty flash WW134 ROM, flash supersu, flash xposed, flash twrp and flash this kernel. Wipe cache and d.cache.
Reboot and it stock kernel.
I tried 2nd time. Flash kernel in twrp and it still stock kernel.

wow great

Cool it everyone, I think it's just a misunderstanding
I have uploaded a flashable zip for now as Anykernel doesn't work as I want it to work ^^
At the moment this can be only flashed by people
WITH root and
WITHOUT xposed
After flashing the kernel, then you can re-flash xposed, this should work then

Root modifies the Kernel. If you change it, root is gone. To root again, you can just flash the latest SuperSU or Magisk zip. You don't need those 2 root files. To fix the 10 second wait, you could disable SIM PIN.
