What is a kernel?
In computing, the kernel is the main component of most computer operating systems; it is a bridge between applications and the actual data processing done at the hardware level. The kernel's responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware and software components).

Ah thanks. Weird it isn't set up by default, I'll check through TM and see. Maybe I had a bad flash. Thanks TK!
Edit: Well it must have been a goofy flash. Under the about tab in settings it was showing TKs kernel but in trickster it was still stock. Weird but I reflashed and re wiped my caches and its all working as it should awesome stuff!

I don't understand some devs now days. Like really. If your gonna be a dev then what ever you make files or what ever that sort should have a time period on how long they can keep it to there selves.... People are just greedy... And the way I see it is that if the Korean devs are not gonna post it on xda then no matter if they created it or not, people should be able to port from it to benefit the community. We shouldnr be thinking for our selfs. I mean yeah they worked there a** off, and its there work but yet you should be decent and think for everyone.

It's not the Koreans - they willingly offered up a link via PM. The issue is it includes closed source Venom Tweaks, which they did not obtain permission to port. The venom team (understandably) doesn't want this unofficial port posted. Until the stuff that is venom is removed (which is twisted ALL up in the framework), it won't be released.
Edit: I just reread your post and I may have misunderstood the first time. I think I get what you're saying
i use this and make a usb y cable

but otg not work for me :crying:
i think this attached file must change.(maybe i'm wrong)

Im new to dealing with kernels. I dont really know what to mess with. The only things Ive changed are the TCP Congestion Control and the Govenor to Badass just to test. Is there any other suggestive settings to control?
Just a question. Im new to these kernels and stuff.
Correct me if im wrong. Custom Kernels are better then Stock? How?
What settings should i change esp if i want to have more battery life?

It's all personal preference. This kernel will give you many more options than a stock kernel. With different cpu governors better battery life can be achieved. This should offer a better audio experience. Should be smoother while gaming.

Hint! -> [ZIP] Synapse + Script => Universal Kernel Manager v2.4 for N4/N5/N7 (2013)
Hello,
I wanted to introduce you here a really great script! I use this script on both phones (N4&N5) ... it's really an ingenious piece of work. :good: I tested the script on the N5 with the UBER & Code Blue kernel. It will also/maybe work with other kernels, try it out! If something is missing -> just ask nice maybe the Dev can manage it!
I'm posting this here because the developer (apb_axel) of the script told me that I would be the only user of the N5 that answers / use it.
This is very unfortunate, so I thought, to post it for you here. (Yes've asked the developers for permission.)
The developer is really friendly and helpful. It's crazy how much time and patience he applied to help users or to reply. :highfive:
If you have any comments or wishes you can ask the developer.
[ZIP] Synapse + Script => Universal Kernel Manager v2.4
[ZIP] Synapse + Script => Universal Kernel Manager v2.4
Hello and welcome! So I started this because I hated having to have a different app to change some of the kernel settings and having init.d scripts for each kernel was a hassle to me, plus some users were having trouble with so many options available so I created this for all those who like to flash & test different kernels like me. I would like to dedicate this project of mine to my friend @ak for all the help and patience he has, he truly is a great dev and we owe him for some of the best kernels available for the Nexus 4.
So how this works is on every boot the script verifies all the tunables it finds specific for the kernel you have at the moment and generates the necessary files so it can be read & displayed on Synapse. Don't feel bad if you don't see all the listed options, it's just your kernel doesn't have those available.
In time I will be adding more scripts so we can have most, if not ALL tunables I can cram into. Hope you like it!
So what you need:
-Root (obviously)
-Working Busybox
-Your ROM has to support init.d scripts
-Synapse
Download Links:
Universal Kernel Manager v2.4
Synapse Google Play Link
UKM Uninstaller
To install:
-Reboot in recovery
-Flash the .zip (No cache/dalvik wipe necessary)
-Install Synapse
-You're done!

F.A.Q.
No UCI support detected? Check the following:
a) Does your ROM support init.d scripts?, IF it doesn't try this,
b) Check in /system/xbin if the uci file exists. IF it doesn't exists you can try reflashing the .zip or run the following in terminal emulator:
su
ln -s /data/N4UKM/uci /system/xbin/uci
c) Check the permissions of /system/xbin/uci AND /data/N4UKM/uci, it should be 755 or 777. IF it isn't you can try reflashing the .zip or run the following in terminal emulator:
su
chmod 755 /system/xbin/uci
chmod 755 /data/N4UKM/uci
d) Check the config.json file in /data/N4UKM/, if the file is blank you can try generating the file again with the following in terminal emulator:
su
uci reset
uci
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE WORKED FOR YOU send me a screenshot of your terminal emulator running the following command to determine your issue:
su
uci reset
uci
Happy testing! :silly:

P.S. This is not my "work / app / script"
I put it here just because I'm excited about it. But of course I'll try to help you, if you have questions. (As part of my knowledge)
Sry for my english, I slept in school and Google confuses me more than it helps!
Awesome work mate, going to test!
At last, the most complete kernel app I ever seen
You should post at my kernel thread so people can test!
That was my thought, too. I really have a lot of kernel app's bought but none is so "extensive". Sure, the "other kernel app's" are good, too. But not everyone has the opportunity to buy such app's.
And yes, I'll post in your thread the note to this script.
Nice one...
Gonna give it a try right now
Looks very cool... will take it for a spin!

I can only agree with Nekator. apb_axel is faster than lightning!!!
It works pretty well on Nexus 5 with Uber. Thanks for sharing here!
In Sound tab I have Headphone PowerAmp set to -6 and it seems that I can't change this value.
A lot of useful tweaks into this app
noob question, please: how do i apply a color profile on synapse?
Hint! -> [ZIP] Synapse + Script => Universal Kernel Manager v2.4 for N4/N5/N7...
Stil waiting for update of synapse which fix the not saving speaker gain
Or is it fixed in ukm 3.4.2?

[KERNEL][TW/LP][13.10.15][SM-T800][SM-T805] IronKernel V2.5 STweaks

Hey guys, I'm back with a new KERNEL for both Variants of the Tab S 10.5 (T800 and T805)!
Some guys probably know me from the IronRom . I decided myselfe to create a custom kernel for our really great Tab s 10.5, I'm getting better and better at this stuff, I don't thought that
It is basically the normal kernel with some modifications for better performance and hopefully also batterylife. It is for the stock kitkat (4.4.2) touchwiz and not for cyanogenmod or something else.
I excuse all devs here visiting my github page, it is such a mess (with the commits)! I know it, but I'm doing this the first time, so hopefully you will forgive me.
The kernel is pretty stable, I just call it a beta version, because I can't test the T800 version, so if with thisone also all works great -> stable
IF YOU FOLLOW MY STEPS BELOW, YOU WILL MAY LOSE YOUR WARRANTY, KNOX WILL DISPLAY 0x1! I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGED DEVICE!
You can try to use the kernel adiutor app, or just the preinstalled sTweaks, but not both at the same time! This will cause problems.
Notice, V2.0 and onwards is only for TW lollipop and not for kitkat anymore!!

1: OnDemand Governor:
This governor has a hair trigger for boosting clockspeed to the maximum speed set by the user. If the CPU load placed by the user abates, the OnDemand governor will slowly step back down through the kernel's frequency steppings until it settles at the lowest possible frequency, or the user executes another task to demand a ramp.
OnDemand has excellent interface fluidity because of its high-frequency bias, but it can also have a relatively negative effect on battery life versus other governors. OnDemand is commonly chosen by smartphone manufacturers because it is well-tested, reliable, and virtually guarantees the smoothest possible performance for the phone. This is so because users are vastly more likely to ***** about performance than they are the few hours of extra battery life another governor could have granted them.
This final fact is important to know before you read about the Interactive governor: OnDemand scales its clockspeed in a work queue context. In other words, once the task that triggered the clockspeed ramp is finished, OnDemand will attempt to move the clockspeed back to minimum. If the user executes another task that triggers OnDemand's ramp, the clockspeed will bounce from minimum to maximum. This can happen especially frequently if the user is multi-tasking. This, too, has negative implications for battery life.
2: OndemandX:
Basically an ondemand with suspend/wake profiles. This governor is supposed to be a battery friendly ondemand. When screen is off, max frequency is capped at 500 mhz. Even though ondemand is the default governor in many kernel and is considered safe/stable, the support for ondemand/ondemandX depends on CPU capability to do fast frequency switching which are very low latency frequency transitions. I have read somewhere that the performance of ondemand/ondemandx were significantly varying for different i/o schedulers. This is not true for most of the other governors. I personally feel ondemand/ondemandx goes best with SIO I/O scheduler.
3: Performance Governor:
This locks the phone's CPU at maximum frequency. While this may sound like an ugly idea, there is growing evidence to suggest that running a phone at its maximum frequency at all times will allow a faster race-to-idle. Race-to-idle is the process by which a phone completes a given task, such as syncing email, and returns the CPU to the extremely efficient low-power state. This still requires extensive testing, and a kernel that properly implements a given CPU's C-states (low power states).
4: Powersave Governor:
The opposite of the Performance governor, the Powersave governor locks the CPU frequency at the lowest frequency set by the user.
5:Conservative Governor:
This biases the phone to prefer the lowest possible clockspeed as often as possible. In other words, a larger and more persistent load must be placed on the CPU before the conservative governor will be prompted to raise the CPU clockspeed. Depending on how the developer has implemented this governor, and the minimum clockspeed chosen by the user, the conservative governor can introduce choppy performance. On the other hand, it can be good for battery life.
The Conservative Governor is also frequently described as a "slow OnDemand," if that helps to give you a more complete picture of its functionality.
6: Userspace Governor:
This governor, exceptionally rare for the world of mobile devices, allows any program executed by the user to set the CPU's operating frequency. This governor is more common amongst servers or desktop PCs where an application (like a power profile app) needs privileges to set the CPU clockspeed.
7: Min Max
well this governor makes use of only min & maximum frequency based on workload... no intermediate frequencies are used.
8: Interactive Governor:
Much like the OnDemand governor, the Interactive governor dynamically scales CPU clockspeed in response to the workload placed on the CPU by the user. This is where the similarities end. Interactive is significantly more responsive than OnDemand, because it's faster at scaling to maximum frequency.
Unlike OnDemand, which you'll recall scales clockspeed in the context of a work queue, Interactive scales the clockspeed over the course of a timer set arbitrarily by the kernel developer. In other words, if an application demands a ramp to maximum clockspeed (by placing 100% load on the CPU), a user can execute another task before the governor starts reducing CPU frequency. This can eliminate the frequency bouncing discussed in the OnDemand section. Because of this timer, Interactive is also better prepared to utilize intermediate clockspeeds that fall between the minimum and maximum CPU frequencies. This is another pro-battery life benefit of Interactive.
However, because Interactive is permitted to spend more time at maximum frequency than OnDemand (for device performance reasons), the battery-saving benefits discussed above are effectively negated. Long story short, Interactive offers better performance than OnDemand (some say the best performance of any governor) and negligibly different battery life.
Interactive also makes the assumption that a user turning the screen on will shortly be followed by the user interacting with some application on their device. Because of this, screen on triggers a ramp to maximum clockspeed, followed by the timer behavior described above.
9: InteractiveX Governor:
Created by kernel developer "Imoseyon," the InteractiveX governor is based heavily on the Interactive governor, enhanced with tuned timer parameters to better balance battery vs. performance. The InteractiveX governor's defining feature, however, is that it locks the CPU frequency to the user's lowest defined speed when the screen is off.
10: Smartass
Is based on the concept of the interactive governor.
I have always agreed that in theory the way interactive works – by taking over the idle loop – is very attractive. I have never managed to tweak it so it would behave decently in real life. Smartass is a complete rewrite of the code plus more. I think its a success. Performance is on par with the “old” minmax and I think smartass is a bit more responsive. Battery life is hard to quantify precisely but it does spend much more time at the lower frequencies.
Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 352Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 352 – why?! – it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 528/176 kernel, it will sleep at 352/176. No need for sleep profiles any more!"
11: SmartassV2:
Version 2 of the original smartass governor from Erasmux. Another favorite for many a people. The governor aim for an "ideal frequency", and ramp up more aggressively towards this freq and less aggressive after. It uses different ideal frequencies for screen on and screen off, namely awake_ideal_freq and sleep_ideal_freq. This governor scales down CPU very fast (to hit sleep_ideal_freq soon) while screen is off and scales up rapidly to awake_ideal_freq (500 mhz for GS2 by default) when screen is on. There's no upper limit for frequency while screen is off (unlike Smartass). So the entire frequency range is available for the governor to use during screen-on and screen-off state. The motto of this governor is a balance between performance and battery.
12: Scary
A new governor wrote based on conservative with some smartass features, it scales accordingly to conservatives laws. So it will start from the bottom, take a load sample, if it's above the upthreshold, ramp up only one speed at a time, and ramp down one at a time. It will automatically cap the off screen speeds to 245Mhz, and if your min freq is higher than 245mhz, it will reset the min to 120mhz while screen is off and restore it upon screen awakening, and still scale accordingly to conservatives laws. So it spends most of its time at lower frequencies. The goal of this is to get the best battery life with decent performance. It will give the same performance as conservative right now, it will get tweaked over time.
13: Lagfree:
Lagfree is similar to ondemand. Main difference is it's optimization to become more battery friendly. Frequency is gracefully decreased and increased, unlike ondemand which jumps to 100% too often. Lagfree does not skip any frequency step while scaling up or down. Remember that if there's a requirement for sudden burst of power, lagfree can not satisfy that since it has to raise cpu through each higher frequency step from current. Some users report that video playback using lagfree stutters a little.
14: Smoothass:
The same as the Smartass “governor” But MUCH more aggressive & across the board this one has a better battery life that is about a third better than stock KERNEL
15: Brazilianwax:
Similar to smartassV2. More aggressive ramping, so more performance, less battery
16: SavagedZen:
Another smartassV2 based governor. Achieves good balance between performance & battery as compared to brazilianwax.
17: Lazy:
This governor from Ezekeel is basically an ondemand with an additional parameter min_time_state to specify the minimum time CPU stays on a frequency before scaling up/down. The Idea here is to eliminate any instabilities caused by fast frequency switching by ondemand. Lazy governor polls more often than ondemand, but changes frequency only after completing min_time_state on a step overriding sampling interval. Lazy also has a screenoff_maxfreq parameter which when enabled will cause the governor to always select the maximum frequency while the screen is off.
18: Lionheart:
Lionheart is a conservative-based governor which is based on samsung's update3 source.
The tunables (such as the thresholds and sampling rate) were changed so the governor behaves more like the performance one, at the cost of battery as the scaling is very aggressive.
19: LionheartX
LionheartX is based on Lionheart but has a few changes on the tunables and features a suspend profile based on Smartass governor.
20: Intellidemand:
Intellidemand aka Intelligent Ondemand from Faux is yet another governor that's based on ondemand. Unlike what some users believe, this governor is not the replacement for OC Daemon (Having different governors for sleep and awake). The original intellidemand behaves differently according to GPU usage. When GPU is really busy (gaming, maps, benchmarking, etc) intellidemand behaves like ondemand. When GPU is 'idling' (or moderately busy), intellidemand limits max frequency to a step depending on frequencies available in your device/kernel for saving battery. This is called browsing mode. We can see some 'traces' of interactive governor here. Frequency scale-up decision is made based on idling time of CPU. Lower idling time (<20%) causes CPU to scale-up from current frequency. Frequency scale-down happens at steps=5% of max frequency. (This parameter is tunable only in conservative, among the popular governors)
To sum up, this is an intelligent ondemand that enters browsing mode to limit max frequency when GPU is idling, and (exits browsing mode) behaves like ondemand when GPU is busy; to deliver performance for gaming and such. Intellidemand does not jump to highest frequency when screen is off.
21: Hotplug Governor:
The Hotplug governor performs very similarly to the OnDemand governor, with the added benefit of being more precise about how it steps down through the kernel's frequency table as the governor measures the user's CPU load. However, the Hotplug governor's defining feature is its ability to turn unused CPU cores off during periods of low CPU utilization. This is known as "hotplugging."
22: BadAss Governor:
Badass removes all of this "fast peaking" to the max frequency. On a typical system the cpu won't go above 918Mhz and therefore stay cool and will use less power. To trigger a frequency increase, the system must run a bit @ 918Mhz with high load, then the frequency is bumped to 1188Mhz. If that is still not enough the governor gives you full throttle. (this transition should not take longer than 1-2 seconds, depending on the load your system is experiencing)
Badass will also take the gpu load into consideration. If the gpu is moderately busy it will bypass the above check and clock the cpu with 1188Mhz. If the gpu is crushed under load, badass will lift the restrictions to the cpu.
23: Wheatley:
Building on the classic 'ondemand' governor is implemented Wheatley governor. The governor has two additional parameters:
target_residency - The minimum average residency in µs which is considered acceptable for a proper efficient usage of the C4 state. Default is 10000 = 10ms.
allowed_misses - The number sampling intervals in a row the average residency is allowed to be lower than target_residency before the governor reduces the frequency. This ensures that the governor is not too aggressive in scaling down the frequency and reduces it just because some background process was temporarily causing a larger number of wakeups. The default is 5.
Wheatley works as planned and does not hinder the proper C4 usage for task where the C4 can be used properly .
For internet browsing the time spend in C4 has increased by 10% points and the average residency has increased by about 1ms. I guess these differences are mostly due to the different browsing behaviour (I spend the last time more multi-tabbing). But at least we can say that Wheatley does not interfere with the proper use of the C4 state during 'light' tasks. For music playback with screen off the time spend in C4 is practically unchanged, however the average residency is reduced from around 30ms to around 18ms, but this is still more than acceptable.
So the results show that Wheatley works as intended and ensures that the C4 state is used whenever the task allows a proper efficient usage of the C4 state. For more demanding tasks which cause a large number of wakeups and prevent the efficient usage of the C4 state, the governor resorts to the next best power saving mechanism and scales down the frequency. So with the new highly-flexible Wheatley governor one can have the best of both worlds.
Obviously, this governor is only available on multi-core devices.
24: Lulzactive:
Lulzactive:
This new find from Tegrak is based on Interactive & Smartass governors and is one of the favorites.
Old Version: When workload is greater than or equal to 60%, the governor scales up CPU to next higher step. When workload is less than 60%, governor scales down CPU to next lower step. When screen is off, frequency is locked to global scaling minimum frequency.
New Version: Three more user configurable parameters: inc_cpu_load, pump_up_step, pump_down_step. Unlike older version, this one gives more control for the user. We can set the threshold at which governor decides to scale up/down. We can also set number of frequency steps to be skipped while polling up and down.
When workload greater than or equal to inc_cpu_load, governor scales CPU pump_up_step steps up. When workload is less than inc_cpu_load, governor scales CPU down pump_down_step steps down.
Example:
Consider
inc_cpu_load=70
pump_up_step=2
pump_down_step=1
If current frequency=200, Every up_sampling_time Us if cpu load >= 70%, cpu is scaled up 2 steps - to 800.
If current frequency =1200, Every down_sampling_time Us if cpu load < 70%, cpu is scaled down 1 step - to 1000.
25: Pegasusq/Pegasusd
The Pegasus-q / d is a multi-core based on the Ondemand governor and governor with integrated hot-plugging.
Ongoing processes in the queue, we know that multiple processes can run simultaneously on. These processes are active in an array, which is a field called "Run Queue" queue that is ongoing, with their priority values ​​arranged (priority will be used by the task scheduler, which then decides which process to run next).
To ensure that each process has its fair share of resources, each running for a certain period and will eventually stop and then again placed in the queue until it is your turn again. If a program is terminated, so that others can run the program with the highest priority in the current queue is executed.
26: hotplugx
It 'a Hotplug modified and optimized for the suspension in off-screen
27: AbissPlug
It 'a Governor derived hotplug, it works the same way, but with the changes in savings for a better battery.
28: MSM DCVS
a very efficient and wide range of Dynamic Clock and
Voltage Scaling (DCVS) which addresses usage models from
active standby to mid and high level processing requirements.
A Krait CPU can smoothly scale from low power, low
leakage mode to blazingly fast performance.
Believe it's a governor that is mfg'd by qualcomm to utilize new on chip features.
MSM is the prefix for the SOC (MSM8960) and DCVS is Dynamic Clock and Voltage Scaling. Makes sense, MSM-DCVS
29: IntelliActive
Based off Google's Interactive governor with the following enhancements:
1. self-boost capability from input drivers (no need for PowerHAL assist)
2. two phase scheduling (idle/busy phases to prevent from jumping directly to max freq
3. Checks for offline cpus and short circuits some unnecessary checks to improve code execution paths
30: Adaptive
This driver adds a dynamic cpufreq policy governor
designed for latency-sensitive workloads and also for demanding
performance.
This governor attempts to reduce the latency of clock
increases so that the system is more responsive to
interactive workloads in loweset steady-state but to
to reduce power consumption in middle operation level level up
will be done in step by step to prohibit system from going to
max operation level.
31: Nightmare
A PegasusQ modified, less aggressive and more stable. A good compromise between performance and battery.
In addition to the SoD is a prevention because it usually does not hotplug.
32: ZZmove
ZZmove Governor optimized for low power consumption with the screen off, with particular attention to the limitation of consumption applications in the background with the screen off, such as listening to music. It has three settings: battery saver, balanced and performance. In addition to a performance boost, there is also the governor zzmove optimized.
I/O Scheduler: Thread:I/O Scheduler explained
The Scheduler is an algorithm that, given a set of requests for access to a resource, establishing a temporal order for the execution of such requests, favoring those that meet certain criteria in order to optimize access to that resource.
The difference between the various scheduler is the focus on certain criteria rather than on others.
The choice of a given scheduler does not produce visible changes so as to the choice of the governor, but still provides some improvements.
As usual schedulers are personally tested to find one that best suits your needs.
Deadline
It aims to provide a deadline, a deadline for all requests in order to avoid undesirable phenomena such as the "starvation" or the eternal waiting for some requests that occurs when one or more background processes are left indefinitely in the queue the ready, because there is always at least one of the highest priority ready process.
V (r)
The next request is performed according to the distance from the last request. In the network running good opinions about this scheduler.
No-op
Push all requests in a single queue simply by their arrival order, grouping together those contiguous.
SIO
E 'the scheduler simpler, does not make any type of sort, is intended only for the purpose of obtaining a low-latency, ie to reduce the amount of time that elapses between the instant at which the request is generated and that in which the request is satisfied.
CFQ
Order requests of different processes in queues for each queue type and assigns a specific interval of time whose duration depends on the priorities assigned to processes. Can be considered the Ondemand the scheduler, the scheduler is in fact more balanced, doing its job in an honest manner.
BFQ
It 's based on CFQ but, instead of the intervals of time, assigns a part of the bandwidth of the disc to each process running in a proportional manner.
Anticipatory
Order requests based on criteria predictive, that puts the demands paused for a short period of time in anticipation that more of this to come to aggregate them.
ADAPTIVE ANTICIPATORY SCHEDULER
For the anticipatory scheduler, we scale up the anticipation timeout (antic expire) using the latency scaling factor over time. When the virtual disk latencies are low a small scaling of the timeout is sucient to prevent deceptive idleness, whereas when the latencies are high a larger scaling of the timeout value may be required to achieve the same. Note that such dynamic setting of the timeout value ensures that we attain a good trade-o between throughput (lost due to idling) and deceptive idleness mitigation. Setting a high value for the scaling factor (increasing idling time) only happens when the disk service latencies themselves are higher. This may not necessarily cause a signicant loss in throughput, because submitting a request from another process instead of idling is not going to improve throughput if the virtual disk itself does not get any faster than it is at the current period. A higher anticipation timeout might also be capable of absorbing process scheduling eects inside the VM. The results for the adaptive anticipatory scheduler are shown in Figure 2. The read time with our modied implementation (third bar in the dierent scheduler combinations) shows that it is possible to mitigate the eects of deceptive idleness by adapting the timeout. An interesting related observation is that the level to which the improve- ment is possible varies for dierent Domain-0 schedulers; noop - 39%, anticipatory - 67% and cfq - 36%. This again points to the fact that the I/O scheduler used in Domain-0 is important for the VM's ability in enforcing I/O scheduling guarantees. Dierent Domain-0 I/O schedulers likely have a dierent service latency footprint inside the VMs, contributing to dierent levels of improvement.
ROW
Row stands for READ Over WRITE which is the main requests dispatch policy of this algorithm. The ROW IO 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 IO 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. Bellow you'll find a small comparison of ROW to existing schedulers. The test that was run for these measurements is parallel read and write.
FIOS
Flash-based solid-state drives (SSDs) have the potential to eliminate the I/O bottlenecks in data-intensive applications However the large performance discrepancy between Flash reads and writes introduces challenges for fair resource usage. Further, existing fair queuing and quanta-based I/O schedulers poorly manage the I/O anticipation for Flash I/O fairness and efficiency. Some also suppress the I/O parallelism which causes substantial performance degradation on Flash. This paper develops FIOS, a new Flash I/O scheduler that attains fairness and high efficiency at the same time. FIOS employs a fair I/O time-slice management with mechanisms for read preference, parallelism, and fairness-oriented I/O anticipation. Evaluation demonstrates that FIOS achieves substantially better fairness and efficiency compared to the Linux CFQ scheduler, the SFQ(D) fair queuing scheduler, and the Argon quanta-based scheduler on several Flash-based storage devices (including a CompactFlash card in a low-power wimpy node). In particular, FIOS reduces the worst-case slowdown bya factor of 2.3 or more when the read-only SPECweb workload runs together with the write-intensive TPC

Thank you! I think we have less devs here in Tab S section, so I have to do something here
I couldn't test the batterylife till now, I was testing whole 2 weeks to get the kernel working (got holidays) So I will report you back!
Intelli-Plug speeks for better batterylife, it shuts down 3 cores if they are not needed (screen off = only 1 core working with 200Mhz or something)

I always make kind of a "stresstest" for the CPU freq. I set min freq to 2.1GHz and max freq to 2.1GHz. Than see what happen. I couldn't get it stable enough for daily use, but if I can, I will enable 2.1GHz for sure
Confirmed working on the T800 with xnote rom.

To install this with Ironrom, should I do anything with Synapse first to either return settings to default or uninstall? Or should I reflash IronRom, leaving out Synapse in Aroma and then flash the new kernel? I plan on trying Kernel Auditor.
Also, will you be adding this kernel to the aroma options soon (or are you waiting for more testing to come in)?

The kernel doesn' support synapse. You can just uninstall it if you like to and than install your kernel auditor.
Yes it will come to aroma soon, I'm waiting for samsung to release a new base for T800
And yes, testing is always welcome
Can you include some tips for let's say performance settings, battery settings, both battery and performance settings etc. I'm still testing a few things too, but can't figure out the best battery settings in faux.

Intelli-plug, KSM enabled, Governor... I would say intellimm is good for battery but a bit slow. Interactive with intelliplug is nice
With Stweaks Support does the Kernel support BLN (blinking Soft Keys)? God, this would be awesome!!
If not, could you create a Custom Kernel with this Feature?

If you would have read correctly, you will see that I'm currently adding sTweaks support. And it don't supports it now, but seems like a good idea!
Please realize this idea
Tkkg1994, this is what I call a very promising start.
Detailed walkthrough, FAQ style, and a very interesting feature rich kernel... I'm on CM12 right now, but already eager to try this in the coming days with IronRom, of course.
A Big Thanks from the other side of the world... Porto, Portugal.

IntellIplug is nice but sometimes you cant turn the tablet on when it's enabled. I even set the screen off frequency to something above 200mhz. I had to force reboot a couple times. Did you managed to get it work? I even tryed all the profiles including balanced etc and also changing the governer. For now I'll keep it off but battery seems good so far!

[KERNEL][TW/LP][13.10.15][SM-T700][SM-T705] IronKernel V2.5 STweaks

Hey guys, I'm back with a new KERNEL for both Variants of the Tab S 8.4 (T700 and T705)!
Some guys probably know me from the IronRom . I decided myselfe to create a custom kernel for our really great Tab s 8.4, I'm getting better and better at this stuff, I don't thought that
It is basically the normal kernel with some modifications for better performance and hopefully also batterylife. It is for the stock kitkat (4.4.2) touchwiz and not for cyanogenmod or something else.
I excuse all devs here visiting my github page, it is such a mess (with the commits)! I know it, but I'm doing this the first time, so hopefully you will forgive me.
The kernel is pretty stable, I just call it a beta version, because I can't test the T700 and T705 version, so if with thisone also all works great -> stable
IF YOU FOLLOW MY STEPS BELOW, YOU WILL MAY LOSE YOUR WARRANTY, KNOX WILL DISPLAY 0x1! I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGED DEVICE!
You can try to use the kernel adiutor app, or just the preinstalled sTweaks, but not both at the same time! This will cause problems.

1: OnDemand Governor:
This governor has a hair trigger for boosting clockspeed to the maximum speed set by the user. If the CPU load placed by the user abates, the OnDemand governor will slowly step back down through the kernel's frequency steppings until it settles at the lowest possible frequency, or the user executes another task to demand a ramp.
OnDemand has excellent interface fluidity because of its high-frequency bias, but it can also have a relatively negative effect on battery life versus other governors. OnDemand is commonly chosen by smartphone manufacturers because it is well-tested, reliable, and virtually guarantees the smoothest possible performance for the phone. This is so because users are vastly more likely to ***** about performance than they are the few hours of extra battery life another governor could have granted them.
This final fact is important to know before you read about the Interactive governor: OnDemand scales its clockspeed in a work queue context. In other words, once the task that triggered the clockspeed ramp is finished, OnDemand will attempt to move the clockspeed back to minimum. If the user executes another task that triggers OnDemand's ramp, the clockspeed will bounce from minimum to maximum. This can happen especially frequently if the user is multi-tasking. This, too, has negative implications for battery life.
2: OndemandX:
Basically an ondemand with suspend/wake profiles. This governor is supposed to be a battery friendly ondemand. When screen is off, max frequency is capped at 500 mhz. Even though ondemand is the default governor in many kernel and is considered safe/stable, the support for ondemand/ondemandX depends on CPU capability to do fast frequency switching which are very low latency frequency transitions. I have read somewhere that the performance of ondemand/ondemandx were significantly varying for different i/o schedulers. This is not true for most of the other governors. I personally feel ondemand/ondemandx goes best with SIO I/O scheduler.
3: Performance Governor:
This locks the phone's CPU at maximum frequency. While this may sound like an ugly idea, there is growing evidence to suggest that running a phone at its maximum frequency at all times will allow a faster race-to-idle. Race-to-idle is the process by which a phone completes a given task, such as syncing email, and returns the CPU to the extremely efficient low-power state. This still requires extensive testing, and a kernel that properly implements a given CPU's C-states (low power states).
4: Powersave Governor:
The opposite of the Performance governor, the Powersave governor locks the CPU frequency at the lowest frequency set by the user.
5:Conservative Governor:
This biases the phone to prefer the lowest possible clockspeed as often as possible. In other words, a larger and more persistent load must be placed on the CPU before the conservative governor will be prompted to raise the CPU clockspeed. Depending on how the developer has implemented this governor, and the minimum clockspeed chosen by the user, the conservative governor can introduce choppy performance. On the other hand, it can be good for battery life.
The Conservative Governor is also frequently described as a "slow OnDemand," if that helps to give you a more complete picture of its functionality.
6: Userspace Governor:
This governor, exceptionally rare for the world of mobile devices, allows any program executed by the user to set the CPU's operating frequency. This governor is more common amongst servers or desktop PCs where an application (like a power profile app) needs privileges to set the CPU clockspeed.
7: Min Max
well this governor makes use of only min & maximum frequency based on workload... no intermediate frequencies are used.
8: Interactive Governor:
Much like the OnDemand governor, the Interactive governor dynamically scales CPU clockspeed in response to the workload placed on the CPU by the user. This is where the similarities end. Interactive is significantly more responsive than OnDemand, because it's faster at scaling to maximum frequency.
Unlike OnDemand, which you'll recall scales clockspeed in the context of a work queue, Interactive scales the clockspeed over the course of a timer set arbitrarily by the kernel developer. In other words, if an application demands a ramp to maximum clockspeed (by placing 100% load on the CPU), a user can execute another task before the governor starts reducing CPU frequency. This can eliminate the frequency bouncing discussed in the OnDemand section. Because of this timer, Interactive is also better prepared to utilize intermediate clockspeeds that fall between the minimum and maximum CPU frequencies. This is another pro-battery life benefit of Interactive.
However, because Interactive is permitted to spend more time at maximum frequency than OnDemand (for device performance reasons), the battery-saving benefits discussed above are effectively negated. Long story short, Interactive offers better performance than OnDemand (some say the best performance of any governor) and negligibly different battery life.
Interactive also makes the assumption that a user turning the screen on will shortly be followed by the user interacting with some application on their device. Because of this, screen on triggers a ramp to maximum clockspeed, followed by the timer behavior described above.
9: InteractiveX Governor:
Created by kernel developer "Imoseyon," the InteractiveX governor is based heavily on the Interactive governor, enhanced with tuned timer parameters to better balance battery vs. performance. The InteractiveX governor's defining feature, however, is that it locks the CPU frequency to the user's lowest defined speed when the screen is off.
10: Smartass
Is based on the concept of the interactive governor.
I have always agreed that in theory the way interactive works – by taking over the idle loop – is very attractive. I have never managed to tweak it so it would behave decently in real life. Smartass is a complete rewrite of the code plus more. I think its a success. Performance is on par with the “old” minmax and I think smartass is a bit more responsive. Battery life is hard to quantify precisely but it does spend much more time at the lower frequencies.
Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 352Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 352 – why?! – it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 528/176 kernel, it will sleep at 352/176. No need for sleep profiles any more!"
11: SmartassV2:
Version 2 of the original smartass governor from Erasmux. Another favorite for many a people. The governor aim for an "ideal frequency", and ramp up more aggressively towards this freq and less aggressive after. It uses different ideal frequencies for screen on and screen off, namely awake_ideal_freq and sleep_ideal_freq. This governor scales down CPU very fast (to hit sleep_ideal_freq soon) while screen is off and scales up rapidly to awake_ideal_freq (500 mhz for GS2 by default) when screen is on. There's no upper limit for frequency while screen is off (unlike Smartass). So the entire frequency range is available for the governor to use during screen-on and screen-off state. The motto of this governor is a balance between performance and battery.
12: Scary
A new governor wrote based on conservative with some smartass features, it scales accordingly to conservatives laws. So it will start from the bottom, take a load sample, if it's above the upthreshold, ramp up only one speed at a time, and ramp down one at a time. It will automatically cap the off screen speeds to 245Mhz, and if your min freq is higher than 245mhz, it will reset the min to 120mhz while screen is off and restore it upon screen awakening, and still scale accordingly to conservatives laws. So it spends most of its time at lower frequencies. The goal of this is to get the best battery life with decent performance. It will give the same performance as conservative right now, it will get tweaked over time.
13: Lagfree:
Lagfree is similar to ondemand. Main difference is it's optimization to become more battery friendly. Frequency is gracefully decreased and increased, unlike ondemand which jumps to 100% too often. Lagfree does not skip any frequency step while scaling up or down. Remember that if there's a requirement for sudden burst of power, lagfree can not satisfy that since it has to raise cpu through each higher frequency step from current. Some users report that video playback using lagfree stutters a little.
14: Smoothass:
The same as the Smartass “governor” But MUCH more aggressive & across the board this one has a better battery life that is about a third better than stock KERNEL
15: Brazilianwax:
Similar to smartassV2. More aggressive ramping, so more performance, less battery
16: SavagedZen:
Another smartassV2 based governor. Achieves good balance between performance & battery as compared to brazilianwax.
17: Lazy:
This governor from Ezekeel is basically an ondemand with an additional parameter min_time_state to specify the minimum time CPU stays on a frequency before scaling up/down. The Idea here is to eliminate any instabilities caused by fast frequency switching by ondemand. Lazy governor polls more often than ondemand, but changes frequency only after completing min_time_state on a step overriding sampling interval. Lazy also has a screenoff_maxfreq parameter which when enabled will cause the governor to always select the maximum frequency while the screen is off.
18: Lionheart:
Lionheart is a conservative-based governor which is based on samsung's update3 source.
The tunables (such as the thresholds and sampling rate) were changed so the governor behaves more like the performance one, at the cost of battery as the scaling is very aggressive.
19: LionheartX
LionheartX is based on Lionheart but has a few changes on the tunables and features a suspend profile based on Smartass governor.
20: Intellidemand:
Intellidemand aka Intelligent Ondemand from Faux is yet another governor that's based on ondemand. Unlike what some users believe, this governor is not the replacement for OC Daemon (Having different governors for sleep and awake). The original intellidemand behaves differently according to GPU usage. When GPU is really busy (gaming, maps, benchmarking, etc) intellidemand behaves like ondemand. When GPU is 'idling' (or moderately busy), intellidemand limits max frequency to a step depending on frequencies available in your device/kernel for saving battery. This is called browsing mode. We can see some 'traces' of interactive governor here. Frequency scale-up decision is made based on idling time of CPU. Lower idling time (<20%) causes CPU to scale-up from current frequency. Frequency scale-down happens at steps=5% of max frequency. (This parameter is tunable only in conservative, among the popular governors)
To sum up, this is an intelligent ondemand that enters browsing mode to limit max frequency when GPU is idling, and (exits browsing mode) behaves like ondemand when GPU is busy; to deliver performance for gaming and such. Intellidemand does not jump to highest frequency when screen is off.
21: Hotplug Governor:
The Hotplug governor performs very similarly to the OnDemand governor, with the added benefit of being more precise about how it steps down through the kernel's frequency table as the governor measures the user's CPU load. However, the Hotplug governor's defining feature is its ability to turn unused CPU cores off during periods of low CPU utilization. This is known as "hotplugging."
22: BadAss Governor:
Badass removes all of this "fast peaking" to the max frequency. On a typical system the cpu won't go above 918Mhz and therefore stay cool and will use less power. To trigger a frequency increase, the system must run a bit @ 918Mhz with high load, then the frequency is bumped to 1188Mhz. If that is still not enough the governor gives you full throttle. (this transition should not take longer than 1-2 seconds, depending on the load your system is experiencing)
Badass will also take the gpu load into consideration. If the gpu is moderately busy it will bypass the above check and clock the cpu with 1188Mhz. If the gpu is crushed under load, badass will lift the restrictions to the cpu.
23: Wheatley:
Building on the classic 'ondemand' governor is implemented Wheatley governor. The governor has two additional parameters:
target_residency - The minimum average residency in µs which is considered acceptable for a proper efficient usage of the C4 state. Default is 10000 = 10ms.
allowed_misses - The number sampling intervals in a row the average residency is allowed to be lower than target_residency before the governor reduces the frequency. This ensures that the governor is not too aggressive in scaling down the frequency and reduces it just because some background process was temporarily causing a larger number of wakeups. The default is 5.
Wheatley works as planned and does not hinder the proper C4 usage for task where the C4 can be used properly .
For internet browsing the time spend in C4 has increased by 10% points and the average residency has increased by about 1ms. I guess these differences are mostly due to the different browsing behaviour (I spend the last time more multi-tabbing). But at least we can say that Wheatley does not interfere with the proper use of the C4 state during 'light' tasks. For music playback with screen off the time spend in C4 is practically unchanged, however the average residency is reduced from around 30ms to around 18ms, but this is still more than acceptable.
So the results show that Wheatley works as intended and ensures that the C4 state is used whenever the task allows a proper efficient usage of the C4 state. For more demanding tasks which cause a large number of wakeups and prevent the efficient usage of the C4 state, the governor resorts to the next best power saving mechanism and scales down the frequency. So with the new highly-flexible Wheatley governor one can have the best of both worlds.
Obviously, this governor is only available on multi-core devices.
24: Lulzactive:
Lulzactive:
This new find from Tegrak is based on Interactive & Smartass governors and is one of the favorites.
Old Version: When workload is greater than or equal to 60%, the governor scales up CPU to next higher step. When workload is less than 60%, governor scales down CPU to next lower step. When screen is off, frequency is locked to global scaling minimum frequency.
New Version: Three more user configurable parameters: inc_cpu_load, pump_up_step, pump_down_step. Unlike older version, this one gives more control for the user. We can set the threshold at which governor decides to scale up/down. We can also set number of frequency steps to be skipped while polling up and down.
When workload greater than or equal to inc_cpu_load, governor scales CPU pump_up_step steps up. When workload is less than inc_cpu_load, governor scales CPU down pump_down_step steps down.
Example:
Consider
inc_cpu_load=70
pump_up_step=2
pump_down_step=1
If current frequency=200, Every up_sampling_time Us if cpu load >= 70%, cpu is scaled up 2 steps - to 800.
If current frequency =1200, Every down_sampling_time Us if cpu load < 70%, cpu is scaled down 1 step - to 1000.
25: Pegasusq/Pegasusd
The Pegasus-q / d is a multi-core based on the Ondemand governor and governor with integrated hot-plugging.
Ongoing processes in the queue, we know that multiple processes can run simultaneously on. These processes are active in an array, which is a field called "Run Queue" queue that is ongoing, with their priority values ​​arranged (priority will be used by the task scheduler, which then decides which process to run next).
To ensure that each process has its fair share of resources, each running for a certain period and will eventually stop and then again placed in the queue until it is your turn again. If a program is terminated, so that others can run the program with the highest priority in the current queue is executed.
26: hotplugx
It 'a Hotplug modified and optimized for the suspension in off-screen
27: AbissPlug
It 'a Governor derived hotplug, it works the same way, but with the changes in savings for a better battery.
28: MSM DCVS
a very efficient and wide range of Dynamic Clock and
Voltage Scaling (DCVS) which addresses usage models from
active standby to mid and high level processing requirements.
A Krait CPU can smoothly scale from low power, low
leakage mode to blazingly fast performance.
Believe it's a governor that is mfg'd by qualcomm to utilize new on chip features.
MSM is the prefix for the SOC (MSM8960) and DCVS is Dynamic Clock and Voltage Scaling. Makes sense, MSM-DCVS
29: IntelliActive
Based off Google's Interactive governor with the following enhancements:
1. self-boost capability from input drivers (no need for PowerHAL assist)
2. two phase scheduling (idle/busy phases to prevent from jumping directly to max freq
3. Checks for offline cpus and short circuits some unnecessary checks to improve code execution paths
30: Adaptive
This driver adds a dynamic cpufreq policy governor
designed for latency-sensitive workloads and also for demanding
performance.
This governor attempts to reduce the latency of clock
increases so that the system is more responsive to
interactive workloads in loweset steady-state but to
to reduce power consumption in middle operation level level up
will be done in step by step to prohibit system from going to
max operation level.
31: Nightmare
A PegasusQ modified, less aggressive and more stable. A good compromise between performance and battery.
In addition to the SoD is a prevention because it usually does not hotplug.
32: ZZmove
ZZmove Governor optimized for low power consumption with the screen off, with particular attention to the limitation of consumption applications in the background with the screen off, such as listening to music. It has three settings: battery saver, balanced and performance. In addition to a performance boost, there is also the governor zzmove optimized.
I/O Scheduler: Thread:I/O Scheduler explained
The Scheduler is an algorithm that, given a set of requests for access to a resource, establishing a temporal order for the execution of such requests, favoring those that meet certain criteria in order to optimize access to that resource.
The difference between the various scheduler is the focus on certain criteria rather than on others.
The choice of a given scheduler does not produce visible changes so as to the choice of the governor, but still provides some improvements.
As usual schedulers are personally tested to find one that best suits your needs.
Deadline
It aims to provide a deadline, a deadline for all requests in order to avoid undesirable phenomena such as the "starvation" or the eternal waiting for some requests that occurs when one or more background processes are left indefinitely in the queue the ready, because there is always at least one of the highest priority ready process.
V (r)
The next request is performed according to the distance from the last request. In the network running good opinions about this scheduler.
No-op
Push all requests in a single queue simply by their arrival order, grouping together those contiguous.
SIO
E 'the scheduler simpler, does not make any type of sort, is intended only for the purpose of obtaining a low-latency, ie to reduce the amount of time that elapses between the instant at which the request is generated and that in which the request is satisfied.
CFQ
Order requests of different processes in queues for each queue type and assigns a specific interval of time whose duration depends on the priorities assigned to processes. Can be considered the Ondemand the scheduler, the scheduler is in fact more balanced, doing its job in an honest manner.
BFQ
It 's based on CFQ but, instead of the intervals of time, assigns a part of the bandwidth of the disc to each process running in a proportional manner.
Anticipatory
Order requests based on criteria predictive, that puts the demands paused for a short period of time in anticipation that more of this to come to aggregate them.
ADAPTIVE ANTICIPATORY SCHEDULER
For the anticipatory scheduler, we scale up the anticipation timeout (antic expire) using the latency scaling factor over time. When the virtual disk latencies are low a small scaling of the timeout is sucient to prevent deceptive idleness, whereas when the latencies are high a larger scaling of the timeout value may be required to achieve the same. Note that such dynamic setting of the timeout value ensures that we attain a good trade-o between throughput (lost due to idling) and deceptive idleness mitigation. Setting a high value for the scaling factor (increasing idling time) only happens when the disk service latencies themselves are higher. This may not necessarily cause a signicant loss in throughput, because submitting a request from another process instead of idling is not going to improve throughput if the virtual disk itself does not get any faster than it is at the current period. A higher anticipation timeout might also be capable of absorbing process scheduling eects inside the VM. The results for the adaptive anticipatory scheduler are shown in Figure 2. The read time with our modied implementation (third bar in the dierent scheduler combinations) shows that it is possible to mitigate the eects of deceptive idleness by adapting the timeout. An interesting related observation is that the level to which the improve- ment is possible varies for dierent Domain-0 schedulers; noop - 39%, anticipatory - 67% and cfq - 36%. This again points to the fact that the I/O scheduler used in Domain-0 is important for the VM's ability in enforcing I/O scheduling guarantees. Dierent Domain-0 I/O schedulers likely have a dierent service latency footprint inside the VMs, contributing to dierent levels of improvement.
ROW
Row stands for READ Over WRITE which is the main requests dispatch policy of this algorithm. The ROW IO 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 IO 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. Bellow you'll find a small comparison of ROW to existing schedulers. The test that was run for these measurements is parallel read and write.
FIOS
Flash-based solid-state drives (SSDs) have the potential to eliminate the I/O bottlenecks in data-intensive applications However the large performance discrepancy between Flash reads and writes introduces challenges for fair resource usage. Further, existing fair queuing and quanta-based I/O schedulers poorly manage the I/O anticipation for Flash I/O fairness and efficiency. Some also suppress the I/O parallelism which causes substantial performance degradation on Flash. This paper develops FIOS, a new Flash I/O scheduler that attains fairness and high efficiency at the same time. FIOS employs a fair I/O time-slice management with mechanisms for read preference, parallelism, and fairness-oriented I/O anticipation. Evaluation demonstrates that FIOS achieves substantially better fairness and efficiency compared to the Linux CFQ scheduler, the SFQ(D) fair queuing scheduler, and the Argon quanta-based scheduler on several Flash-based storage devices (including a CompactFlash card in a low-power wimpy node). In particular, FIOS reduces the worst-case slowdown bya factor of 2.3 or more when the read-only SPECweb workload runs together with the write-intensive TPC
Can't wait to try this out on my t700
You might want to amend your OP. If you study the source code a little more and try understand things. You'll find there are no (actual) A7 100 MHz. A7 cores freq are doubled 100-650 (become 200-1300) MHz. A15 cores 800-1900+. Samsung have done it this way for IKS to work easily.
Some CPU control apps will just read the table but not able to differentiate between the A7 and A15 cores, and just display what's read from the frequency table.
You've made a good start, but 99% over those governors aren't suitable and/or optimized for Exynos. A "shotgun" approach isn't always the best way, but hey, this is your toy.

Now I understand that a little bit more. Because I added first a 100MHz support and added all stuff to get it work and than, it displayed me 50MHz and I thought, what the heck is going wrong here?
So I removed it again. Thank you for helping out here.
Suitable are they, but optimized not at the moment. You know, otherwise I wont have work left
And that's also why I call it a beta version at the moment.

No, a lot are not suitable, as they are written for krait SoC (4 main cores), just like intelli-plug etc. I found they were more of a hassle and eroded kernel stability, hence I never committed the changes for release. You might find otherwise, so no harm to try. Can be fun, and also a headache too
Snapdragon 810 will be using big.LITTLE architecture same as Exynos, so hopefully faux will port some of his work over. Although it will be HMP, maybe we can adapt to our IKS kernel.

Nobody says that we can't port it to 8 cores you know, it is a lot of work for sure, but not impossible.
I barely had problems with the governors, more with intelliplug.
But I think it is good that we don't have the same opinion.
Otherwise we would have 2 similar kernels here.

I don't think you understand me yet. We use IKS and 4 cores at once big.LITTLE . NOT HMP (all cores running). If you study the governors and what exactly the frequency/cores are actually doing in real time, you will find out and learn from it ... Just because something compiles and are able to switch between variables, does not make it compatible.
I never said or implied that anything was impossible, but you need to re-write (not adapt) a lot of code. In effect, create a "new" governor. This is fact, not my opinion
Best of luck with your project, keep at it !

I think our Exynos5 5420 use HMP and can use all cores together if it uses it?
I was talking about the intelli-plug stuff not the governors. I hope samsung will release a S6 with exynos (only) and than we will get more support.
If you want to talk with me (and yes I like to) than PM?

Keep reading and learning Particularly what IKS is and does. Please don't take this the wrong way, this is relevant and you really need to learn how the basics of our 5420 kernel actually work.
There have been test HMP for Exynos 5420, BUT, no Android powered Exynos 5420 is ever capable of HMP. AndreiLux has explained why in various posts.
HMP kernels (such as I'm using with my Note Edge Skyhigh kernel) is completely different, but some things might be adapted with little work.
I just don't have the time to answer or clarify every single question (I don't pretend to always know), even by PM. It's just a matter of reading, learning, and trial by many errors.

Kernel update is awesome I love the GPU OC seems stable also went to 2GHZ CPU OC no issues I would go to 2.1GHZ but I think it may get unstable
TAPATALKED WITH MY XPE R IA Z
My Z3 app Ports to all devices

THANKYOU !!! Why is it that most other developers can't use common sense and say right up front that their work will kill Knox.

This won't actually trip Knox counter...
By installing a custom recovery (pre-requisite to install kernel.zip) will already trip the counter, and not within the scope of most Developers concern. Wouldn't the user already have tripped the counter prior to flashing the kernel? Think about it. .. Having the warning in OP doesn't hurt though
