DOWNLOAD KERNEL ZIP(No mirrors please)
Warning: If you come from other kernel or have any issues, you should dirty flash your ROM before flashing blu_spark zip to avoid problems.
Reflash ROM -> flash TWRP --> reboot to recovery --> flash Magisk if you want (default, no plugins/modules) -> flash blu_spark.
If you are already rooted or upgrading between blu_spark versions, just flash the kernel zip. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
About bugs and troubleshoots: don't bother to post if a log isn't ready or without steps so the behavior can be replicated. I only active support stock OOS with NO mods whatsoever (apart from root). That includes NO support if using xposed, Magisk with modules, etc.
If you're using custom ROMs (including OOS based ones) or Open Betas you're on your own. I'm only interested on debugging stuff in stock and stable OOS.
Save the SOT and battery stats/screenshots for general threads, here we deal with development, not personal tastes and results.
Also don't spam this thread with CM or other ROMs stuff like "this don't work, my app doesn't open, etc" , no OT about OTAs, apps, ROM bugs, Recovery/TWRP troubleshoots and other userspace stuff. There's threads for it, use them.
Going back to stock: This kernel installer doesn't change your filesystem. You can backup your boot.img with TWRP before flashing blu_spark if you want to go back to full stock or just dirty flash your full ROM.

I can set it just fine.
1785 is not the default min, if you cant change it and its locked to that max value you have something else derping and locking it.

Works fine in 7pro OOS 9.5.9 with stock camera app, used it yesterday actually several times.
Multimedia driver stack, including camera, is totally stock in blu_spark.
edit: also OP7 is behind in ROM versions, they updated camera stuff on latest OOS 9.5.9 sourcedrop, so you may have to stay with previous kernel build until they update OP7 ROM with matching binaries.

DESCRIPTION
Hey guys, I have started a custom Kernel based on LineageOS sources with 98% CAF. So I would like to share my own performance and usability improvements with minimal feature and enhancements on top. The intention is to have a minimal light-weight kernel that is very fine tuned for the device.
FEATURES
Minimal Kernel with a stripped defconfig base to be more streamlined and have less memory footprint
User space display color calibration (KCAL) with screen calibrated against iPhone 8 Plus, also helps reducing screen retention
Schedutil governor making use of EAS features with updates from Linux 4.4 and 4.12
Up to date with LineageOS sources for maximum compatibility and security bugfixes
Memory and cache subsystem optimizations, you will feel it
Adaptive LMK enabled by default
Transparent Hugepages are enabled
ZRAM/Swap partition is disabled by default
BFQ IO scheduler set by default to avoid slow-downs on task intensive scenarios
No overclocking was chosen to avoid unnecessary heat, optimizations were focused on other different areas
Kernel Samepage Sharing enabled with deferred timer by default to gain some memory usage optimizations, the process sleeps on regular basis and I've profiled it so that there's no battery drains due to it
Simple temperature controls for msm_thermals exposed
Compiled with GCC 6.x optimized toolchain and -O3 plus other hardware specific flags
Undervolted the Adreno 530 GPU voltage rail to keep things cooler
CAF Rebase on major portions of the Kernel has helped lower the memory footprint a lot
ES9218 Quad DAC automatic toggling working inside the kernel for headphone HIFI playback, please read here for details

NOTES
Here is a GeekbenchV4 result example : http://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/7618872
These is intended to be used primarily with LineageOS, I have not tested other ROM's
Since LineageOS uses a way newer Bluetooth stack, this Kernel will most likely not work on old ROM's such as ResurrectionRemix
This will not work with LineageOS 15.1, please see the other thread
KNOWN BUGS
When using v1.0.0 will fail to boot if you had Magisk previously installed. Please install something newer if using Magisk.
When using v13.0.0 - v15.x.x infrared remote control will not work.
I would also like to thanks to various people who contribute tremendously such as:
@x86cpu
@EvilHowl
@USA-RedDragon
@savoca
@albinoman887

Kernel Special Features:
Version Information
Status: No Longer Updated
Current Stable Version: 46.0.0
Stable Release Date: 2018-07-11
Created 2017-12-10
Last Updated 2018-10-22
CHANGELOG
46.0.0 - Started msm_irqbalance by default on boot, disabled lp11 and enabled allow mdss phy powerdown during idle screen.
45.0.0 - Smoother memlat ramp and tuned the schedTune DVR cpusets a bit for better performance overall.
44.0.0 - More deep sleep enhancements.
43.0.0 - Update to Oreo TouchScreen firmware and more MDSS PLL merge fixes that help deep sleep.
42.0.0 - Missing MDSS Oreo merges are now in place.
41.0.0 - Added IPA_WS as a default in the wakelock blocker, as well as enabling CONFIG_PM_SLEEP which if missing would in turn cause some ueventd wakeups.
40.0.0 - Disabled CONFIG_RMNET_DATA_DEBUG_PKT. Full fix for USB OTG and added missing slimport drivers. Tweaked the random wakeup values, added some extra cpusets based on Marlin's android-cts-8.0_r8/init.common.rc and fixed some BFQ IO possible hang.
39.0.0 - Disabled CONFIG_RMNET_DATA_DEBUG_PKT. Full fix for USB OTG and added missing slimport drivers.
38.2.0 - Removed LGE's battery manager alarms.
38.1.0 - Fixed potential wireless packet loss.
38.0.0 - Further tweaked the wlan_rx_wake wakelock, migrated the audio and thermal workers to power efficient queues, and added an arm64 prefetching optimization for memcpy.
37.0.0 - Better deep sleep enhancements with the charger infrastructure borrowed from the V30 Kernel Oreo sources.
36.0.0 - Full fix for 6a00000.ssusb wakelocks while keeping fast charging enabled.
34.0.0 - Added boeffla_wl_blocker to tame NETLINK wakelock, this wakelock is caused by IPC between the wireless driver in the Kernel and Android. This was the reason why when on wireless the battery would drain more compared than radio. Also disabled OTG as this keeps the phone from deep-sleeping for now.
33.0.0 - Enabled OTG.
32.0.0 - Fixed a bug from Oreo merge that causes video to go green and crash sometimes. Disabled ZRAM from the compilation rather than AnyKernel patch.
31.0.0 - Merged some V20 Oreo Kernel changes in, as well as some DAC enhancements to prevent popping, better USB PD and QC 2.0/3.0 charging code.
30.0.0 - Oreo Kernel changes in, trying to unify the Kernel to keep support for a little while on 14.1.
29.0.0 - Merged msm idle from Linux 4.4 as well as full EAS 1.4 support from Linux 4.4, reduced the memory subsystem timer ramp values for speedier operation.
27.0.0 - Enabled wifi.supplicant_scan_interval on boot, and disabled IPv4 TCP Timestamps and ICMP responses as well as CCKM fast secure roaming.
26.0.0 - Full EAS 1.4 from Wahoo (Pixel 2XL) backported.
25.0.0 - Updated EAS (schedutil, walt, fair scheduler) to be in sync with Wahoo (Pixel 2XL) latest changes.
24.0.0 - Fixed another performance regression in multi-core scores within schedutil.
23.0.0 - Screen brightness is 50% while booting to reduce heat when it is regenerating cache on boot. v22.1.0 was 25% but this was barely visible if you were rebooting under direct sunlight. So went for the safe value.
22.1.0 - Reduced the screen brightness while booting to reduce the heat of the device during cache wipes.
22.0.0 - WALT and schedutil cpufreq commit fixes backported from RenderBroken.
21.0.0 - The GPU Voltage rail undrervolt is now ~60 mV, do not see any problem and games run way cooler.
20.0.0 - After feedback on frequency utilization/distribution I've put 3 WELT commits that should help alleviate this. And enabled some extra configurations from our wireless driver for better power savings.
19.0.0 - Trimmed around ~40 mV from the GPU voltage rails, and updating the wireless stack to DHD 1.80.13 - 2017.06.22, from us997 V16a.
17.0.0 - Increased the multi-core benchmark scores.
16.1.0 - Reverted the binder to be Nougat only, since Oreo support will be on a separate Kernel anyway. Fixed the Infrared Remote Control support that I had broken, and tuned the memory scaling to be more responsive.
15.0.0 - More audio fixes. This audio CAF merging has fixed the speaker-phone that suddenly stops recording or suddenly stops recieving audio from the phone call in LineageOS. Also have increased the schedutil timer values to be similar to the Pixel 2 XL (Wahoo). And finally have fixed a CONFIG_LGE_PM_LGE_POWER_CLASS_CHARGER_SLEEP problem, so that the charger module now sleeps better and uses less power in idle.
14.0.0 - Updated WALT (Window Assisted Load Tracking) fixes aggregated by RenderBroken. Fixed an audio bug introduced in 13.0.0 where headphone insertion could change the sampling rate of other audio sessions. Changed again the schedutil timer values to favor benchmarks a tiny bit and increased the external SD read-ahead and minimum number of requests so that there is better merging when using slow SD cards while keeping the internal storage device in a low-latency configuration.
13.0.0 - Merged CAF audio upstream changes and enabled transparent hugepages.
12.0.0 - Tuned the memory subsystem frequency scaling parameters further down to focus on batter savings as well as the EAS timers.
11.0.0 - Added cpuidle optimizations to idle more, bumped up the memlatency trigger.
10.2.0 - Reintroduced back QuickCharge 2.0 and QuickCharge 3.0 fast charging support into the Kernel.
10.0.0 - Bumped up the Kernel to version 3.18.71.
9.0.0 - Full arm64 arch CAF update done to the Kernel based on CAF LA.UM.6.5.r1-05300-8x96.0. Added support for H918 variant too.
8.2.0 - Partial update to get the Kernel in a big percent that of CAF LA.UM.6.5.r1-05300-8x96.0, no bugs introduced and using a CAF / LineageOS kernel base. Using the binder interface that works both for Android Oreo and Nougat to be prepared for Lineage15. Also fixed a bug that I had introduced in previous versions related to wireless access point, hence why I had pulled versions 7.x from the server.
4.1.0 - Reintroduced into the LineageOS kernel the partial-update in the panel, to gain some power savings and overall performance feeling when refreshing the panel and screen elements.
4.0.0 - Raised the EAS schedutil timers and the memlat governor threshold to kick in faster. This will bring up the responsiveness to similar levels to HMP even when still using EAS. Brought back KSM after profiling on battery utilization, it doesn't hurt as long as a the timer value is between 4000.
3.0.x - Bugfixes and testing with Magisk compatibility, I think there are no more compatibility problems with Magisk after this, had to remove KSM for testing.
1.0.0 - Initial version, with KCAL, and streamlined defconfig based on cm-14.1 kernel sources and minor commits on top.

Oh, I didn't compile specifically for VS995 so it will have static on boot. Since these two are mostly the same devices I might give u a VS995 Kernel next week with that static gone.
Here are some Geekbench results in case anyone is interested : http://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/5506983
Great to have someone finally building an AOSP kernel!
Any chance you'll be compiling for the H918 sometime in the future? No worries if you aren't. I'm just curious =p

That sounds great! I'll look forward to it! But I'm about 12-14hrs in the kernel now, and so far so good! With normal usage.
Have updated Kernel to 1.1.0 version with two minor changes that improve the performance by quite a big. Figured out the OP3 and the Marlin Kernel was using 300 Hz tick timers. But for some reason our Kernel was only using 100 Hz tick's. So two changes in this version.
1. Enable high-res timers for schedulercks
2. arm64: hz: make it configurable
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Plus I have decided to go on and change the perfd binary again. I was not aware how much of impact this has to EAS and the fluidity, since with EAS the input freq boost in the Kernel is now gone. You can read more about it here : https://github.com/EAS-Project/android_device_voxpopuli in the README.md. I am not yet using 100% of the capabilities of Vox Populi Power HAL but a lot of features from it turned off for now.

Most likely yes, but after I polish a few features and once I am 100% happy with the performance
Hmm... Oddly enough if I install I get stuck into a boot loop. Not even a LineageOS boot animation. I am and will continue to use Magisk, even flashed all 3.

I only tried the latest one. I did not try without Magisk though or the older version, the all 3 reference was all 3 files you had. gamma/vox/thermal.
I noticed in your thermal, that the camera files are the same as Lineage, so you could take those out. I also took out the mixer one as I bumped those VOL up as it was hard to hear on calls without it. If you do find any adjustments that the op3 or marlin did, we might be able to get those into the Lineage msm8996 kernel. Ideally, the commits from op3 in the Lineage tree, then I can cherry pick it to preserve history. I'm all for getting things into Lineage where we can.

So I got home to try just in case @x86cpu and I was able to flash Magisk-v14.5(1456).zip after all of the 3 files had been flashed on my system and it booted fine.... so I've re-uploaded the Kernel as v1.1.1 in the downloads section just in case...
Wiped /system (as I had su from LineageOS flashed before)
Flashed system with lineage-us996-*.zip
Flashed OpenGapps
Flashed perfd update (2nd of my zips)
Flashed the 'hotfixes' (3rd of my zips)
Flashed gamma-kernel (1st zip)
Flashed Magisk-v14.5(1456).zip
Hit reboot
If you can let me know if the v1.1.1 version works on your side then I can blame the bad upload. If not I can do more experiments to see if there is some other condition that depends on the order of flashing with my AnyKernel approach... and then I can try and replicate and fix it , please do let me know...
UPDATE: I am able to hit the failure now @x86cpu... let me see if AnyKernel needs any update or something to allow to re-install the Kernel if Magisk is already pre-installed. In order to hit it I had to:
Wiped /system (as I had su from LineageOS flashed before)
Flashed system with lineage-us996-*.zip
Flashed OpenGapps
Flashed perfd update (2nd of my zips)
Flashed the 'hotfixes' (3rd of my zips)
Flashed Magisk-v14.5(1456).zip
Flashed gamma-kernel (1st zip)
Hit reboot
Essentially flashing the Kernel last... which might be a common thing that could happen, let me polish that up...
I've uploaded flashable-us996-gamma-kernel-v1.2.0.zip now with an updated AnyKernel script that seems to now be working even with Magisk installed previously. Thanks to @x86cpu for reporting this bug.

I just installed the v1.1.1 before the fix. So. In other words before I saw this update, I just flashed it with no wiping, Desolation rom, and it booted fine, it's just now, in Magisk I can't pass cts or basic integrity. I'll try your updated method and see if that fixes the problem.
Edit: did the above steps, minus wiping twice and flashing the hot fixes twice. Rebooted it. And now I can successfully pass safetynet on the latest gamma kernel!
Edit#2: false hope, my apologies, safetynet apparently isn't passed.
Edit#3: okay. I had a blonde moment. I forgot to wipe my dalvik. It passes now.
What do the HAL's do? And what order should I flash the zips?

The order doesn't matter as they are independent. And I would suggest you read about the EAS perfd HAL in here : README.md
However keep in mind that I haven't implemented all of the VoxPopuli features from the HAL in the AnyKernel as it needs some SELInux permissions updates (which I can do later on). But without all of those enhancements it will behave like the Pixel HAL.

THIS KERNEL IS FORTREBLE & NO-TREBLE
Introduction
Hello everyone, I'm Martin and I've been working on Potter for 1 year right now.
I'm constantly trying to improve this device with some change that some developers don't like.
For me EAS is the future of android kernel, that's why I'm already bringing it to you!
I will always follow these three rules:
Follow upstream Linux always
Features will be added only as needed
Security and stability are paramount
I hope you'll all agree with these three rules
Thread Rules
I refuse to acknowledge/respond to bug reports that do not include clear steps to reproduce, a logcat or a dmesg. (Follow this guide)
Stay classy, I won't tolerate flaming of any kind, ever.
OT is allowed.
Features
Here are the major features of the kernel (feel free to explore Github)
Up to date with the latest stable Linux version (3.18.119)
Patches from Code Aurora Forum targeting GPU, touchscreen/video, storage, and sound
Mainline Linux patches for CFQ and media memory allocation
F2FS driver updated
VDSO32 built in
Latest energy aware scheduling patches ported to 3.18 (check EAS)
Converted some workqueues to use power efficient workqueues
Wake up improvements and other optimization from Sultanxda
Rewrited the fingerprint sensor driver (fpc1020_tee)
The following user features:
Faux Sound Control with high-performance audio
Westwood (default)
Maple I/O scheduler
Wakelock control
Lastest WireGuard snapshot
Build with official Clang toolchains 7.0 (clang-4679922).
Hides bootloader unlock from SafetyNet (can still fail through other means)
Flashed with AnyKernel2 (thanks to @osm0sis)
Downloads
Lastest version is the v2.01 (AceKernel-Potter-v2.01_eas_unified.zip)
Eas-Unifiedhttps://download.martichou.me/Potter/
Only small issue is fingerprint gestures broken on Treble rom with this version. I'm working on how to solve this issue.
Old versions: https://download.martichou.me/Potter/Old/
Do not mirror my kernels and don't share the direct link!
Installation
If you are on a custom ROM:
Either dirty flash your ROM or flash the stock boot image. (not mandatory)
Install or temporarily boot into TWRP (follow their instructions)
Reboot to TWRP
Flash the zip.
Reboot and profit!
If you are on a GSI/Treble ROM:
Either dirty flash your GSI image or flash the stock boot image. (not mandatory)
Install or temporarily boot into TWRP (follow their instructions)
Reboot to TWRP
Flash the zip.
Reboot and profit!
Upgrading from one Flash version to the other:

Basically, all ROM built after the 7th June.
Check on potterroms which were built after this date.
I can't say at 100% that all ROM built after the 7 June is compatible cause it's up to the ROM maintainer to either update his tree or not. So it's better to ask directly to the one who maintains the ROM you gonna use.

Try the 8 June Pixelexperience build.
There is also the lastest LOS15.1 from Vache.
As I said, maintainer will have to update their own tree.
Basically it's just a 2-3 days gaps.
As of now, supported roms are PE, LOS, and Firehound
This Kernel works great. The UI runs smooth and my batteries life got up to ~15%.
I want to change the GPU Governor, because I do not need the performance from msm_adreno_tz. This info about adreno I was able to find on xda, but for the other GPU Governors in this kernel I couldn't. Can somebody recommend a GPU Governor for batterie life or balance?
Also, what are the effects of "audio high performance mode"?

I don't recommend you to change the GPU governor. GPU don't take that much battery, and adreno_tz is already pretty great.
On GPU side, you can however change the GPU initial frequency to 133MHz if you want.
If you really want to change GPU governor (even if I don't recommend that at all), you can use simple_ondemand.
And about the Audio High performance mode:
Every phone powered by a Qualcomm processor has a built-in WCD9xx Audio DAC,
but it's rarely configured to be used to its full potential by OEMs.
This might not seem like a problem to some people, but if you're a music lover,
or you simply enjoy high-quality sound, it's an issue you'll definitely want to fix.
By enabling High-Performance Mode, the audio quality of Qualcomm-powered devices
will not only receive a boost in volume but will sound more clear and crisp as well.

No worries. Treble is an initiative by Google that forces OEMs to separate their devices' driver code from the code that powers Android itself. There's a more detailed Android Authority piece that explains it in detail here.

That is brilliant.
Does this mean our phones compass works on Oreo now? I read somewhere it was because of an issue with not having the 64bit drivers for it. Makes gps apps unusable for me and is basically while I'm still on nougat
hello I want to install the ROM but there is 2 treble version and no treble and I do not know which one to install. I have the latest version of RR-O-v6.0-20180608-potter-official
I already installed it I tried with the non-treble everything works fine even the camera, I'm realizing that I do not have much RAM available less than 400mb in the stock ROM of RR I had always more than 600 now the games are closed only after 5 minutes of opening them by little ram: '(

You can enable Zram in Kernel Auditor or Exkm or any kernel tweakers.
Enabling Zram should fix your issue.
By the way, I want to say that free ram is wasted ram. The ram need to be full the most of the time. (As far as I know and what others dev said).

1.2 Q: Can you add xyz feature?
1.2 A: If you link me the commits or tell me what kernel you had the feature in, I can take a look at them. I will not add any useless governors or features that I don't find practical.
1.3 Q: How do I control the kernel?
1.3 A: I recommend using EX Kernel Manager or Kernel Auditor (Both need root)
1.4 Q: OMFG MY BATTERY SUXXXX PLS FIX!!!
1.4 A: The kernel doesn't drain any battery unless you have overclocked it, I have kept it at stock frequencies and voltages. Use an app like BetterBatteryStats to figure out what app is screwing with your phone.

great job
Kernel installed this morning and no problem, I'll be back in a few days
@rajatgupta1998 do you think it'd be possible to make Oreo kernel support the same aftermarket panels as Nougat kernel did? It's only touchscreen that is not working. What kind of info could we provide to help to debug this? It would be insanely helpful for all of us with bricked phones
My unit has display burn in issues .. the only fix is to turn down the rgb values with manual display calibration options available on Los based roms. Can i use use the stock oreo rom on top of your kernel and achieve the same ?
Thanks! Does it have an TTL editing function? (line TTL in /proc/net/ip_tables_targets)

I need testers for the kernel since I personally don't own the device. All those who are interested, kindly join my testers group on Telegram. https://t.me/montana_reviver . Also I am willing to continue LineageOS and atleast attempt at Oreo bringup for the device, so I will need testers. Thanks :fingers-crossed:

Nice
New build is up!
File: reviver_kernel_montana_stock_oreo-2.0.zip
Build Date: 13 January 2019
Changelog:
Update kernel source, f2fs and wifi driver from Motorola's OPPS28.65-37-2 Release
Start merging CAF Tags from where Moto dropped: May 2018 (Completed till June '18 right now, more to come) so that we stay up to date with Qualcomm's release for MSM8953 (Snapdragon 625) chipset. Our CPU MSM8937 can be thought of a low powered version of the 625 so they share a lot of code.
Show correct GPU Frequency in sysfs
Silence WLAN, PCIe, and CPU suspend state kernel messages. These are pretty useless.
Add support for Himax Touchscreen Panel
Remove CPU Boost functionality from Interactive CPU Frequency Governor
Minor changes to MDSS (Display) and Camera drivers.

SHA1: 965cfffd0b0909ee3d41e841519ef90e30c8ae0f
Proposed upcoming features in future releases (No promises)
1. A custom wakelock blocking driver by @ Lord Boeffla
2. KCAL Display Colour Control driver by savoca.
3. More stuff from Qualcomm
Soon we'll start seeing a custom kernel for 64 bit oreo custom roms since GoldenEye has already released a few initial builds of LineageOS 15.1

Great news!
Would love to see your kernel for LOS 15.1 and could test it also.
Custom panel support
Do you think it'll be possible to also support Tianma panels in this kernel? They were supported in Nougat and I managed to get a working Oreo version by replacing whole drivers/touchscreen folder and building my own
montana_n:/ $ cat /sys/class/graphics/fb0/panel_name
mipi_mot_video_tianma_1080p_521

@Cyr4x here you go http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=47365433013478436702
You should flash it on top of stock ROM via TWRP recovery
Thanks, it's working now.

DOWNLOAD KERNEL ZIPFKM download configs: oos | custom(No mirrors please)
Warning: If you come from other kernel or have any issues, you should dirty flash your ROM before flashing blu_spark zip to avoid problems.
Reflash ROM -> flash TWRP --> reboot to recovery --> flash Magisk if you want (default, no plugins/modules) -> flash blu_spark.
If you are already rooted or upgrading between blu_spark versions, just flash the kernel zip. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
About bugs and troubleshoots: don't bother to post if a log isn't ready or without steps so the behavior can be replicated. I only active support stock OOS with NO mods whatsoever (apart from root). That includes NO support if using xposed, Magisk with modules, etc.
If you're using custom ROMs (including OOS based ones) or Open Betas you're on your own. I'm only interested on debugging stuff in stock and stable OOS.
Save the SOT and battery stats/screenshots for general threads, here we deal with development, not personal tastes and results.
Also don't spam this thread with CM or other ROMs stuff like "this don't work, my app doesn't open, etc" , no OT about OTAs, apps, ROM bugs, Recovery/TWRP troubleshoots and other userspace stuff. There's threads for it, use them.
Going back to stock: This kernel installer doesn't change your filesystem. You can backup your boot.img with TWRP before flashing blu_spark if you want to go back to full stock or just dirty flash your full ROM.

Hell yeah... Nice to see u here!
Good to see you here man. I have used some of your kernels over the years. Will try this out.
@eng.stk do you also plan to provide your famous blu_spark_twrp?
Have you read of the sleep of death/deadlock issues on this device? If so, do you have any ideas for the source of the issue?
THIS!!!!!!! This is what I've been waiting for. Thank you @eng.stk. Couldn't be happier right now.

Edit: Also anyone seeing KCAL? And or KLAPSE? no where to be found on EXKM, maybe I need to flash it twice? Anyone's guess is as good as mine

@eng.stk
Hi. We were waiting for you and your work at this forum section. Thank you for providing support for allmost all oneplus line, used your kernel and twrp for more than 2 years.
CAF introduced 675 max gpu freq support for sm8150. Will you allow us to use it, but setting 585 as defualt? Less is more, i'm agree with you.
About deadlocks, someone calls it sleep of death, there is such problem. i faced it myself many times. As far as i can say, its faulty units problem. Replaced my unit and so far no deadlocks for 2 days already. With previous one i had it once in 3-6 hours.
@eng.stk
Nice to see you here. Only now I can buy OP7 PRO and retire my OP6.
Thank you for your time and effort.
Nice to see you here, finally! Flashing.....

Maybe, not apriority for me at the time, lot's of work to on the kernel.
I honestly use less and less twrp this days, do everything from the ROM with autoflash apps.

Stuff is missing still, check git to see what's in (or ask us if you're after something in particular). The rest will come in time, can't do much more in less than a day ;p
Stuff in OP some are in, others are placeholder for what I intend to merge in.

The OP is either a few year old copy paste and/or is providing the wrong information.
- ARM enhanced performance and battery patches - guess nobody has this since 3.18 kernels
- 300Hz - set to 100
- Klapse - not in source
- KGSL fixes and reworked GPU driver - Nothing has been reworked but using high prio
- Stock thermal driver by default - what else?
- adrenoboost... - not in source
- KCAL - Advanced color control for Qualcomm MDSS v2 (RGB calibration and post-processing features) - not in source
- Several CPU Governors (blu_schedutil modded governor available) - not in source
- CVE security patches, general upstream and CAF fixes - Nothing newer in source
- USB Fast Charge (USB mode up to 900mA with MTP on) - not in source

blu_spark_r29 (A12)
So here's blu_spark for the oriole (and probably raven ;p)
Been cracking around on this since I got the device a couple weeks ago.
The new GKI kernel stuff(which imo will kill custom kerneling in the future) and the "let's use 10GB of garbage device tree to build a kernel" is not really for me.
So I decided to put on an full tree with all the vendor stuff on it, with less that 5% of what Google proposes we can play with the device just fine.
My primary objective was also to make a full builtin kernel, but seems like init expects modules and other stuff to be in place so it's a no go, at least for now (maybe with some further init stages crack it's possible, idk)
So kernel output is splitted across boot.img, vendor_boot.img and vendor_dlkm.img.
I also take the time to make AK3 basic hdr v4 compliant (big shouts to @osm0sis for being the best wingman, as always). Because fastboot is tedious and since it's 2021 there's no room for that in my builds.
You can flash the AK3 kernel zip in your favorite kernel app with autoflash functions or with TWRP when/if available. If you want/need to go stock again, instructions are on OP.
Besides Pixel 6, this should work on Pro also, but I can only test on Oriole, let me know how it goes on Raven if you're brave enough.
You can use FKM download kernel feature, just import the link bellow in the app flash section.
FKM download config: HERE
Changelog:
Build with Google Clang 12.0.5 + LLD linker
Full kernel based from kernel/gs+google-modules @ android-gs-raviole-5.10-android12-d1 (android-12.0.0_r0.17) (Nov 2021.1)
Several build fixes and improvements (check git for details)
drivers: google-modules: make it build and additional fixes, remove cruft
Disable some debug and logging
FS and F2FS improvements
Enable advanced TCP congestion control (westwood default)
Add wakelock blocker framework
Tuned a couple IO and ZRAM runtime stuff
AK3 updates (v20211118) plus my own additional fixes for hdrv4 flashing (big shouts @osm0sis for the help)
For root, canary Magisk 23015 or newer is mandatory

"with TWRP or kernel app" "fastboot" "dirty flash OTA zip"
People can use what is easier/better for them if there's the need to restore stock.
I don't use dtbo, I don't patch anything there.

Is this the reason there aren't many custom kernels up until now? I thought the GKI would make things easier at least after some time that devs get more accustomed with it.
Btw nice to see you here I was running your kernel for the past few months on op8pro.

Just sharing the info that vendor dlkm img can also be flashed on the phone through the ex manager ( not other kernel manager) ..
Otherwise on fastbootd
@eng.stk booted fine on 6pro
Great to see you on Pixel 6 @eng.stk been using your kernel on most of the devices that i have granted 1 or 2 dont have it but like always you're on your a game and i look foward to how much battery savings we will get with this kernel over time. Seems great so far btw on your kernel.

Well GKI is for getting vendor/oem life easier the way updates are maintained.
Actually the choices the big G has made over time complicate the aftermarket tinkering.
They are making thinks too convoluted for instance, keeping source scattered all over the place creating artificial dependencies, using a build backend full of unneeded junk, output goes in random places just because, images full of junk with multi-ramdisks and padding with weird layouts, etc.
They started complicating ROM stuff, partitions, etc. Then they went after gapps and root. Now it's kernel.
Android is becoming ChromeOS imo.
Doesn't mean things can't be modded, just the way they are going is deterring to do it.
Excellent to see you here mate! Just got my 6, so I want to give myself some stock time with it, but Im sure I'll be flashing soon
