CMx is based on the latest CyanogenMod CAF kernel with several additions that enhance the user experience without deviating too far from CM's original code.
Additions to the stock CM experience
- faux123 sound control
- USB fast charge
- Enable ROW IO scheduler by default

Thank you! Have we met before? I just whipped up this kernel because it's something I've been wanting for a while. I have a few more changes in the works as well.

No you may request, but I have a very tight schedule so no guarantees.
I did find a potential bug with the fast charge implementation so please do not use that as of right now. At least until I can confirm what's going on with my end.
EDIT
Everything seems to be working for me now, but I did run into a strange issue where my phone would not turn on after charging all night with fast charge turned on at 1500ma. If anyone runs into the same issue, plug your phone into the computer until it turns on again. I will be testing this thoroughly over the next couple days.
I've been testing the kernel all day and charging it with fast charge on and off, and have not had any new issues. I believe the kernel is safe to use now, if anyone has any issues please let me know. I will continue to test this thoroughly and will provide ant new information I have.

v0.2 is now in testing. I have been running this build since yesterday and it seems to be stable. If I get some positive feedback I will update the OP, and if I don't hear from anyone then I will continue to test for another day and then update the thread if there are no issues.

On user demand I brought Experimental kernel to Arc/S. I know emwno's kernel has until now some of my changes merged (he asked me first) but this one will continue to test changes for "power users" to see if we can improve it even more, and after that any kernel builder can merge/cherry pick commits from my github.
I don't own an Xperia Arc so bugs that I'm not aware of may appear.
Please only experienced users should test this kernel!
After the previous changes were integrated in the main kernel I started again with some experimental changes this time. Here they are, and please remember to thank Garwedgess&FXP first
Code:
Changes
[B]Experimental#2[/B]
[COLOR="Red"]WARNING[/COLOR]: redownload and reflash modules!
-Update to new ALS configuration
-Remove some unused governors and I/O schedulers
-Add dm-cache (check [URL="http://visa.cs.fiu.edu/tiki/dm-cache"]here[/URL])
-Remove some more debug and disable frame_pointer and arm_unwind
-Mutex to use generic xchg-based implementation for ARMv6+
-new opt flags
-Binder fixes and updates (check [URL="https://github.com/paul678/semc-kernel-msm7x30/commits/experimental2"]github[/URL])
-compiled for CM10.1 also (needs testing)
-maybe more
[B]Experimental#1[/B]
-More RAM (386 total)
-Enable support for unaligned access
-Optimize LMK

-Updated KGSL drivers - part of changes below:
*KGSL-change:
add tracepoints
cleaned power states
Create a separate pool for mapping kgsl allocations
Store process mem entries in a rbtree
Allocate physical pages instead of using vmalloc
disable early suspend and late resume for 2d cores.
moved some gpu registers
and many many more...to much code!
*Other
-Patch LMK to not kill the same pid over and over
-We got [FONT="Comic Sans MS"]touch boost[/FONT] on Interactive governor
-Add frandom
--Undervolted a bit and change high freq voltages, 1.6ghz may be stable now(use it carefully!)
-Changes from CM10
-remove bits of debugging
-disable KSM: better this way, was doing a lot of useless work => wasting cpu cycles
-removed useless I/O schedulers
-removed many governors->use interactive
-Hopefully increased WiFi sensibility
-Increased readahead
-backported part of framebuffer from 3.0.x
- use only non-blocking Urandom
-&some other stuff I can't recall now
Downloads
-Kernel CM10
-Kernel CM10.1(Not booting atm)
-WiFi modules
-Usb-Otg modules
Warning:
-this build contains experimental changes and reboots may appear. It's recommended to wipe caches after you flash and please return with feedback regarding anything.
-Prototype kernel to test ideas so every developer is welcomed to propose changes.
-Any kernel developer can feel free to merge/cherry-pick my commits but let me know first as some o them may not be stable
-use Lupus as a stable kernel.
-I'm not responsible for anything that can happen to your phone.

Up next:
-Working on Experimental#4 (Neo/V build)

So you finally brought it over. Great job with the kenrel btw. And their shouldn't be any new bugs for arc/s users as the 2011 devices only have minor differences in source.
you forget to update op title
so this 3.0?

Paul would it be a problem for you to compile this Kernel for CM10.1 or is this not possible?
After my knowledge it just needs another Ramdisk is that right?
I attached latest CM10.1 Kernel for arc.

When you have to go to University, make a game in c++ and work on updates on this kernel then you can make a comment like this...ever thought that maybe I didn't have time to put them on mediafire ?
(modules will be up today)
Anyway anyone on that Pointer Location thing as I want to test something for the touchscreen this night

On the other hand 56 downloads and 0 people answered my simple question about some touch events, I guess (if it proves to work) you don't want it on your device.
Have a great day, Paul.

SaberMod Franco.Kernel | AOSP & (CM testing) | r204 | 1 Apr 14 | Sched-dl | Linux 3.4.84 | GCC 4.8.3 -O3
Introduction
As you may already know, LaboDJ is no longer supporting n4 linaro franco. Therefore, I have decided to continue his work but this time with SaberMod toolchain by @sparksco.
Starting from r204, I will only release 1 build for every franco versions. I don't have time to make 3 different builds anymore.
Features:
- Franco r204 with LaboDJ's Linaro fixes and tweaks
- ofast instead of -o3
- Add faux sound support, and faux sound fixes, YES YOU CAN USE FAUX APP!
- Sched-deadline from mainline (jlelli) , taken from Harkness kernel
There is a full explanation of sched-deadline on Harkness thread.
- Sched improvement commits
- Codel net scheduler
- Prima v3.2.7.47
- F2FS support
- Added frandom driver Linux mainline random driver
- a lot more optimization!
Downloads: AOSP | CM (testing, use it at your own risk), credits to @xtrymind for the CM zip file.
Source: Github
What is sched deadline?
Originally by @Synthetic.Nightmare
Not to be confused with the iosched deadline, Sched_deadline is a scheduling class that implements a real-time CPU scheduling algorithm; EDF (Earliest Deadline First), augmented with a bandwidth isolation mechanism (called Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate the behaviour of tasks between each other. SCHED_DEADLINE allows the CPU to reserve a portion of the CPU time to a specific application very accurately. A key feature is that it ensures "temporal isolation", which means that the temporal behavior of each task (i.e., its ability to meet its deadlines) is not affected by the behavior of any other task in the system. In other words, even if a task misbehaves, it is not able to exploit larger execution times than the amount it has been allocated. When a task tries to execute more than its budget, it is slowed down, by stopping it until the time instant of its next deadline. When, at that time, it is made runnable again, its budget is refilled and a new deadline is computed.

A: I don't answer to problems without a log. The log file is in /proc/last_kmsg. Paste it on pastie.org and link it on your post. Logcats are useless for Kernel purposes, don't bother posting them.
2. This kernel works on Y or X rom?
A: This is one of the worse questions you can ask on my threads. This is a Nexus, it works on every rom you can possibly imagine.
3. OMG BETTARY SUCKZ, IT DEAD IN 45 MINUTAS, HALP!
A: As you can imagine I don't build kernels to decrease battery life. All the battery life problems come from your apps, either Facebook, or Maps, or some Location Service being enabled etc etc. Check your damn wakelocks and fix them, the kernel is not responsible for them.
4. Touch Control doesn't work in rXXX release, you suckas, fix plixe!
A: I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for a fix, I can tell you I don't have the solution. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you leave now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I ignore you.
From LaboDJ:
5: Can i switch from your kernel to Franco one anytime I want?
A: Yes, you can do it without flash anything.
6: My phone boots normally then the screen goes off and it reboots
A: Known BUG in DMA, don't let the screen goes off until f.ku color are set.
7: I'm on franco Milestone/nighly #xxx how can I flash your kernel?
A: Clear f.ku app data, then flash my kernel.
8: Can I use f.ku (franco.Kernel Updater) with your Kernel?
A: Yes, you can.

Crdroid is CM based, CM has CAF patches merged, this kernel does not have a CAF version.
Btw, thank you for the great kernel xcstacy.
Been using labodj's linaro franco.kernel since 4.3.. I'm glad you continue his work...
Btw just finish flashing the stock sabermod version of yours...after flashing I encounter 1 reboot...i dont know why is that...but now it works like charm.

support for CAF cm11 rom ? before bashing starts just to let you specificperson know that 194 franco kernel messed up color screen so did faux kernel
The only difference is that everytime there is a newer linux kernel version for branch 3.4.x , LaboDJ always upstream it to the latest linux version. Is there any plans to upstream this kernel to version 3.4.71? Thanks.
Flashed test version on PXS v2 and it's working fine.

I will probably do this later because I don't really see a point updating the kernel specifically to latest 3.4.x linux version when the kernel itself already has patches from various linux branches.
But this doesn't mean that I won't update it to latest 3.4.x, just not now

Hi,
I recently bought the redmi note 3 and noticed the lack of kernel support, so I decided to share this with you guys:
https://github.com/daeiron/kenzo_caf_kernel
Its a fully functional buildable kernel for stock MIUI.
Changelog:
05-06-2016
- Merge LA.BR.1.3.2_rb3.28
- Fix camera for some?
28-05-2016
- Enable KSM
- Fix fingerprint on 6.5.26 (xiaomi didn't update their kernel source, so have to use fingerprint hal from 6.5.19)
- Update ramdisk
- Other small stuff
21-05-2016
- Merged to LA.BR.1.3.2_rb3.27
- Merged some patches from ido source drop
15-05-2016
- Tested with 6.5.12
- Full kcal support
- Defauls at boot to 400mhz min freq & bfq scheduler
- Fsync toggle
- State_notifier and state_helper (from neobuddy89)
- Backlight dimmer (from flar2)
- A lot of patches and fixes (see git)
04-05-2016
- Merged to LA.BR.1.3.2_rb3.26
- Upstream patched to 3.10.101
- O3 + makefile optimized
- BFQ, Fiops and SIO
- RGB color support (use custom app like kernel adiutor)
- Other patches (see git)
Limitations:
- No color/contrast/reading mode support, seems they didn't release it as part of the kernel
- In kerneladiutor gpu freq displays at 600mhz, this is just a false reading. Check 'cat /sys/class/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/devfreq/cur_freq' for the real frequency
- If you build the kernel and it won't boot try stock toolchain (https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.9) with up to this commit e1a8a48e59638c0d24d2214c2a85046068158a08
To build;
- Clone the repo
- Get yourself a toolchain (I use stock google 4.9 up to commit: e1a8a48e59638c0d24d2214c2a85046068158a08)
- Edit user vars in build/build_kernel.sh
- From kernel root run: sh build/build_kernel.sh
- You end up with a flashable zip file in build/dist/
I am planning on keeping the source up to date with CAF and also sync in the latest patches from kernel.org.
Feel free to fork or use, please mention that you did though.
You can find my flashable zip builds here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7XCSgymRoP0ZjJtSkxuS01kYUk
In oneplus one forum, sultanxda build a CM13.0 with CAF kernel and is pretty smooooooooth
Whoah,
Thank you, I was working on the same thing, this will save me a lot of time.
Yay more dev support, maybe in a month I'll figure out the stuff about building kernels and all that
Thanks for this
Thanks m8 great work

Hi,
I recently bought the redmi note 3 and noticed the lack of kernel support, so I decided to share this with you guys:
https://github.com/daeiron/kenzo_caf_kernel
Its a fully functional buildable kernel for stock MIUI.
Limitations:
- No color/contrast support, seems they didn't release it as part of the kernel
To build;
- Clone the repo
- Get yourself a toolchain (I use stock google 4.9)
- Edit user vars in build/build_kernel.sh
- From kernel root run: sh build/build_kernel.sh
- You end up with a flashable zip file in build/dist/
I am planning on keeping the source up to date with CAF and also sync in the latest patches from kernel.org.
Feel free to fork or use, please mention that you did though.
You can find my flashable zip builds here (ramdisk based on 6.4.21 beta): https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7XCSgymRoP0ZjJtSkxuS01kYUk

Hi! Do you think you could help me with this issue?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/help/help-developers-network-issue-t3367436
Probably a stupid question but I did read all the posts. Is this considered a modified 'cracked' boot.IMG?

You will need Kernel Adiutor (free from the play store) or similar app capable of allowing you to switch I/O schedulers and
CPU governors in order to be able to change and set those.
I can recommend this.

Thanks for your work so far :good:

Thanks for trying out the kernel. That's weird about the WiFi. I have never had that happen in the bunch of times I have flashed it. I will def look into it.I'll have a look at the log, although at this point I'm also not that great at interpreting those, so it may not help. I'll see what I can do though

OK,well after looking at the log and trying to decipher it and then thinking a bit I have only come up with one possibility.Maybe somehow your wpa_supplicant.conf file located in /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf has the wrong permissions for some reason.If you want you could try to check and possibly change the permissions.If you decide to try this I would backup the file because you never know.
The permissions should be: Owner - wifi Group - wifi...
Owner read and write/Group read and write/ others none.
If your permissions are correct on that file the only other thing I could possibly think of to do if you wanted would be to delete that file,wpa_supplicant.conf.Only after you back it up it though because you will lose all of your passwords,and reboot.It should recreate it.Do that at your own risk though.This is all I have come up with because I have never had that problem,so it's a bit difficult.
I am sorry, I think the error was my fault and not a bug of the kernel. I think the build that I am running at the moment is one I build myself and used sabermod toolchain. I remembered that I had the same problem using DMPKernel on that build. I thought I was using one of hennymmc's builds by now - so, sorry for reporting but thanks for looking into anyways.
Unfortunately I tried both and didnt solve the issue ,the permissions were set correctly btw.
I just installed the CM13 on another partition but - unless I have a flashable zip file - I can not install your kernel on that one. Would it be possible to provide the kernel as .zip?

Conducted any work on the development of the kernel? About sound problems and headphones like DJ_Steve , initially had no problems, and then there., maybe it depends on kernel version? Is there a chance to make all the improvements in version 3.4.39 ? (Google translation)

I actually haven't touched this recently at all.I've been spending too much time on the mess that is my AOSP build [emoji2]
I give up on that for now though.It's giving me a headache.
I will try to get back to this soon,as I don't even think it works with any of my builds.I don't know.I'm not even using this right now.
I never actually had any real audio issues with this however and I did use if for awhile,so that's strange.

Robot voice I have never had. And mute has the same problem that error camera. If you kill the mediaserver, the microphone performance is restored. You can use the long-known app Mediaserver Killer. (Google translation)
This particular kernel arose out of frustration at the lack of choices that T-Mobile and Canadian S6 users have when flashing ported roms with the GraceUX UI and it would not have been possible without the original source posted by @Greck99 .
Feature-wise, this is the same exact kernel included in Noble Experience; however, it has been built against a W8 configuration and uses a stock ramdisk that has been modified solely for the purpose of booting hybrid ports.
Yes, blue light filter works. So does AOD (no touch for now)
Pair this kernel with the call audio fix for grace ux for the complete Noble Experience (or whatever GraceUX port you desire) on T/W8
Suggestions and feedback are welcome. Feature requests may be considered if I determine them to be useful enough to include
Thanks to:
@Greck99 & @Noxxxious for this awesome source
@AlexisXDA for making killer roms and something to be envious of
@The Sickness for his continued work on our devices and for all his contributions
@arter97 for hybrid ramdisk commits
And the Nexus7420 team in general.
I am not responsible for your device, you are.
This kernel should work for both T-Mobile and Canadian devices,
though has only been tested on a G920W8.

Interesting.. Did you flash SU after?
Edit: It also may be necessary to wipe dalvik if you are flashing this coming from Arter. I have flashed this on two different W8s without issue, so I'm fairly certain it works
No! So sorry! Did not think about flashing su because my rom already has it installed. I'll try again next time when I flash

The main issue I have with AOD is the massive battery drain. Even with it not enabled in the kernel, the AOD app still drains battery. I actually trimmed it from my rom.
The other issue is that the only kernel I'm aware with the AOD feature is TN kernel, which the developer has chosen not to share his source.

Yeah, you're right. My only issue is I'd love to try out AOD even it drains my battery, since tn kernel brakes call function.. So if you have a test build, I'd gladly try it out
Its nice to have more choices anyway! Thanks a lot. :victory:

What groundwork did arter97 do? We should credit Samsung for giving us the proper bootclasspath instead.
And btw AOD is working
Thanks for making this kernel available on other models. When you need help or have feedback about the kernel PM me.

I used his commits for building the ramdisk, would've probably taken a lot more trial and error without them -- they aren't documented clearly anywhere else to my knowledge (and to be fair, not all of what he ships in the n7 kernel is required in the ramdisk for booting). Most kernel authors don't include their ramdisks in the source they post. Sure I could've decompiled the ramdisk shipped with Noble Experience and reverse engineered it, but that's not what I did. I just wanted to give credit for the path I took regardless of my opinions regarding those whose steps I followed.
I just noticed a slurry of new commits in the upstream branch which I pulled into my fork earlier today and built a test build for myself. I will be releasing it once I've had a bit of chance to test things out and make sure all is working :good: So far things are running great for me.
Thank you very much for the work you've done and for sharing your source. The blue light filter is the real cream for me here as the overlay in cf.lumen causes lag for me. It is greatly appreciated by myself and all the others with our device. I could've just taken a stock kernel and started from scratch, but this is oh-so-much better than that!
Kernel Updated to Version 3
This update is largely a merge with up upstream source. Kernel is feeling very smooth, and in addition AOD drivers have been added and most of the kinks have been worked out.
Kernel is now using a custom built dt.img for AOD support which has not been tested for edge devices (though the reboots never affected them). I see no reason why it shouldn't work, please let me know if it causes any catastrophic failures!
Edit: V3 Image for G925T/W8 has been re-uploaded as of 1:05pm PST. Fixes for call audio regarding the custom dt.img -- removed it as it's not needed.

@lizaSB nice work. I see now that I have some compitition lol. JK.
Glad to see some fresh blood here on the kernel side.
Works beautifully on my G920T (XAR). Thanks OP! One thing though: I would suggest highlighting the note that installing SuperSU immediately afterwards is mandatory to make it more easily seen as the device wouldn't boot without it...
