[EOL] Boeffla-Kernel (unofficial) for Lineage OS-15.1/16 [kltexxx] - Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development

This project is now "End-of-Life" (EOL). Thanks to all of you for the kind support...
Proudly presenting, Boeffla-Kernel (unofficial) for Lineage OS-15.1/16.
/* Introduction */
This is an unofficial port of the well-known Boeffla-Kernel which is developed by the recognized developer @Lord Boeffla. Since the original developer decided to end his support with Nougat, I decided to port his awesome work to Oreo. With the permission of the original developer, here I'm sharing my builds for anyone interested.
/* Warning */
This kernel is no way supported by Lord Boeffla. Please do not bother him with anything related to this Kernel.
/* DISCLAIMER! */
Code:
I am not responsible for any damage to your device. Everything you are doing on your device is at your own risk.
I only own kltelgt (Korean variant). Hence, kernels under the category 'kltekor' are only tested by myself.
Please note that flashing any custom Kernel including mine will void your warranty.
/* Supported devices */
klte: SM-G900F, SM-G900V, SM-S902L
kltekor: SM-G900K/L/S
kltedv: SM-G900P/I
klteduos: SM-G900FD, SM-G900MD
kltekdi: SCL23​
/* Compatibility */
This kernel is only meant to work on Lineage-OS 15.1/16 and nothing else. However, it may work on other LOS 15.1/16 based Oreo/Pie ROMs (Please try at your own risk).
This kernel will NOT work in Samsung Stock and other TW ROMs.
/* How-to-Install */
i. Download Kernel
ii. Go to recovery (TWRP recommend)
iii. Flash Kernel
iv. Reboot and enjoy
/* Features */
Built from Boeffla-Kernel 14.1 source code.
Merged with latest LineageOS 15.1 source code.

Added blu_active CPU governer.

Additional schedulers: fiops, bfq, sio, tripndroid, zen
Many Hotplug tweak profiles (Default, Optimized, 1 core max, 2 cores max, 3 cores max, 2 cores min, 3 cores min, 4 cores min, 2 cores exact, 3 cores exact)
Wake up gestures implemented (double-tap-to-wake, swipe to wake) Removed from beta-v4 onwards.
Boeffla-Sound engine (Headphones and speaker volume configurable)

Insecure kernel (adb has root privileges)
Automatic EFS backup
Kernel survival mode by Boeffla-Config app to survive CM rom flashes
Full support for mpdecision for best compatibility and smoothness
(Important: use Boeffla-Config to configure min/max CPU frequencies + governors + schedulers only - or explicitely allow other apps/processes to overwrite this in Boeffla-Config settings, but expect weird side effects)
Integrated full busybox 1.23.1 (own compilation)
Auto-Root by kernel possible by request, not recommended for CM however (latest su included)
Kernel initialization log file (with the history of 3 log files)
Emergency reset script automatically placed into /boeffla-kernel-data folder of your internal memory
Presets supported in Boeffla-Config by kernel (Extreme power, power, normal, battery friendly and battery saving)
Always using latest Initramfs
Always based on latest Galaxy S5 sm-g900f kernel sources by CM
Kernel runs with SELinux enforcing by default, just as CM12 stock kernel for S5 - but can be configured to work in permissive mode in Boeffla-Config settings

So we are in the house
Kernel works fine so far... No probs with undervolting either. But never used this feature for daily use. Because it's not recommended.

Hello, my device is kltekor but after I flashed your kernel the second sim signal appears on the status bar, is that a feature or a bug?

No such issues in my kltekor (SM-G900L):Lineage-OS 15.1 latest build. See screenshot attached. Maybe some other issues on the ROM side?

Sorry friends, I made some accidental mistakes while preparing the last build and it makes the modules unaccessible (do anyone noticed?). The download links are now updated with proper builds. If you are not worried about modules, just avoid this message. Otherwise, update to the newly uploaded builds (Please note: there is absolutely no change in the file name).
Sorry for the inconvenience...
