[Kernel] MetalliKernel 10.1 CM9-HWA a6 [150-1380mhz] [384mhz GPU] [7/5 -Feature List]

Alright so here's the first release of this kernel for codeworkx's CM9 with hardware acceleration.
Again this is for codeworkx's cm9.
Also, this is for codeworkx's cyanogenmod 9.
One more time, this is for cm9 only.
Finally, this is for cm9 and cm9 only!
Don't let the "alpha" title fool you into thinking it's not stable... it is... It's only alpha because it's still in the "testing" phase.
FEATURES/CHANGES
Overclockable to 1.38GHz
Underclockable to 150MHz
GPU overclocked to 384MHz (highest possible without bottlenecking and battery waste)
Tuned OnDemand Governor (recommended)
Interactive Governor with time view concept (learns from your use and adjust parameters accordingly)
Wheatley Governor (optimized use of C4 state)
Hotplug Governor (turns of one of the cpus to save power when load is very low)
Pegasusq Governor (A better version of Hotplug, but experimental and not designed for our devices)
SIO scheduler for speed/performance with flash storage
Linaro Toolchain
Linaro optimizations and patches
Linaro makefile compiler flags
Makefile Optimizations to boost performance
Optimized CRC32
Optimized ARM RWSEM algorithm
Tiler Memory increased to 32MB (linaro)
Other Tiler patches/tweaks to improve 2D gpu performance
SLQB allocator
lib/string use glibc version for speed
lib/memcopy use glibc version for speed
lib/sha1: use the git implementation of SHA-1 and removed ARM sha1 routines
I/O backport from 3.2 linux kernel for less dirty throttling
Tweak CPUIDLE to enter deep sleep faster thus saving battery
LowMemoryKiller backported from 3.4 kernel
Disable GENTLE_FAIR_SLEEPERS for improved performance
Allow Deep Sleep to occur when media decoder is active allowing the cpu to shut off when playing music or video.
Allow MPU logic to power down when in deep sleep to save power.
Increased default readahead value to 1024KB for faster sdcard reads
A lot of stuff I probably forgot I did.
Also includes a ridiculous amount of bugfixes, patches, and tweaks that can found on my github commit log.
***Read Me***
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, USE SETCPU PROFILES OF ANY KIND OR ANYTHING SIMILAR WITH THIS DEVICE. Things like screen off max frequency, temperature throttling, and others are already built in to the OMAP architecture. Using ANY profiles will ONLY lead to problems, instabilities, and battery drain.
***************
Let me know how it "feels" especially by default without overclocking or underclocking. Also I'd be interested in how the battery treats you. Thanks!

Which boot screen. I think I know the issue if its not the cyanogenmod one.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda premium

I have this issue too and it's the Tab2 10.1 screen. (the first one that shows during boot)

It's the Tab 2 Splash screen. I can adb, go into DL, and get into CWM so it's fine... it just won't boot.

Yeah its probably because I forgot to use the 10.1 ramdisk. I'll upload a fixed version shortly.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda premium

No worries man.
Thanks for getting started anyway, a lot of devs can use your fork now.

New version up. In addition to some bugfixes and reverts, this time the espresso10 ramdisk is actually used instead of the 7 inch version

Now it installs fine. What app should I use to control it? NSTools, Voltage Control, CPU Master, etc...

Glad to hear it. Let me know how it runs.
Really doesn't matter what you use as they all modify the same sysfs entries. I like no frills CPU control because its simple and only does what I need it to do.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda premium

Changing OC settings with NSTools or CPU control causes reboot. Settings don't change.
I can change min freq and governor (tried it with interactive and wheatly), just not max freq.

Works like a charm now. I'll keep you up to date on performance once I've done some testing.

Works fine in voltage control, and stable at 1380 so far with little heat. I haven't really stressed it though but it does run smoother and more responsive than before. The GPU seems snappier too. Great job.

Can you post a complete "feature list" with next version ? Oh, and can Voodoo sound be integrated for better (sound) quality ? I'll keep pressing the thanks button.

Thanks for the kernel, will test it later this day.
Maybe you can add an how to flash guide for the n00bs who want to flash but don't know how to do it?

works works works!!!!!!!!!! like an awsomeness thing! hehe i know that i can trust on you m8, but i did ask for it..yet and you made it! thx really THX!!!!!!

Hi,
Thank you for work but is what I am to have a problem of hangs and of connection with WIFI

Been testing the kernel with default settings for some hours now ... started using it since 11.oo this morning and started with a full battery. After playing some games (tablet/battery temperature stayed normal) and browsing the net, checking emails and some more stuff i must say the kernel works smooth and my tablet runs faster. Am using the kernel for 3.5 hours and the battery is at 71%. No weird things happened so far. WiFi and bluetooth both work fine in other words...
the kernel feels goOOOood

About GPU overclock:
My phone is Samsung SHV-E330S, which is basically GT-N9005 in S4 case, so 99% hardware is the same.
According to my investigation in GPU overclocking, frequencies are handled fully inside RPM firmware. Frequencies in .dtsi files aren't used. RPM uses its own frequency table and cannot be changed from linux side. So, your GPU OC simply doesn't affect actual GPU frequencies. Linux GPU governor will think it uses new frequencies and will actually switch to a wrong frequency (because RPM will use hardcoded unmatched freq table) - so everything will go wrong (as you already noticed, probably).
I've monitored GPU/PLL hardware registers and saw, they work according RPM's table and not affected by .dtsi settings.
There is the only way to overclock SD800 GPU is by modifying PLL settings (as it was done for SD600 GPU). There is PLL for highest GPU powerlevel's frequency which used solely by GPU (just like in SD600). But performance increase is not so high as it could be from increasing RAM frequency OC (which i didn't manage to tweak yet).
P.S.: I don't know about N9005, but in E330S standard highest frequency is 550MHz (according to PLL settings) instead of 450MHz as advertized in MSM8974 (not AB or AC), although in .dtsi files max frequency is 450MHz. Good bonus from Samsung
Probably, in N9005 it's the same.

Thank you! Yeah I think the other kernels used the wrong voltages with the frequencies, so the CPU didn't get enough power running at higher speeds and just powered off unexpectedly, I think I got them perfect
I'd love for some more feedback, and even feature requests, no matter how crazy they sound I will try to implement them

Its running pretty smooth here on beanstalk as well nice and snappy, I'll try it on Candy tonight. It would be nice to see color profiles support ? haha that would be awesome on our kindles! Kind of like ak's kernel with UKM . Nonetheless this is good work man ??

I have noticed a problem. OC'ing up to 1747 MHz makes the device really stuttery and laggy. 1632 MHz seems like the sweet spot and notice a big difference in performance (in a postive way). I would love to see some Gamma support and Double Tap 2 Wake on this device! Would be some great features to have.

Yeah I tried implementing that in the aosp-5.0 branch on github, but other commits interfered and broke the kernel, so I set up a new branch cm-12.0 (the one I'm currently using) and forgot to implement the colour profile support. I will give it a go tonight and test it out

Yeah I hate over clocking past 1.7ghz, I stuck with either 1500mhz or 1632mhz. I will definitely implement double tap 2 wake as I loved this feature on an old ROM I tried for the kfhd (not sure which, anyone else know?). I'll get on it tonight!

It was on jb2kred's PA. I was going to add it but kinda screwed everything. And another thing,it's implemented not by a sysfs entry,but the individual driver c files for display. Completely different from the usual DT2W

As far as I can see, it shouldn't be too hard implementing this as the files that have been changed to add this feature hasn't been touched for a while, the the code will fit in nicely. If all goes to plan, I will release version 2 of this kernel today, check my github commits for new stuff

I've implemented double tap 2 wake and a few more optimisations. V2 should be uploaded soon and I'll add the new features to the list in the OP for those who don't want to check, or can't make sense of github commits.

Ok, you asked for it!
Feature request: USB-OTG
It's the only thing I miss in this device, I know hashcode said it would be difficult, but let me dream
Great kernel, thank you so much!
Also the tap to wake seems a great idea, very useful on this device, as the power button is difficult and uncomfortable to find

Anyone D2TW working? Not able to make it work on my device.

Kernel works well with Candy5 also has the option to enable/disable DT2W in Display settings but doesn't work aswell.

Why I created a SECOND kernel:
So for those of you living under a rock (jk), I already maintain Void Kernel for the One S, so why would I bother creating another? Well @Rapier started having issues, so I PM'd him a patch. He sais he would test it later but commented on how Void LP and IceCode LP were feeling a bit sluggish (they share the same base) where as the stock CM 12 Kernel is super smooth. I then tried the CM 12 stock kernel and realized that he was right. So I forked the CM stock kernel and added some basic features and sent it to him. He commented on how the OC values weren't sticking properly and the Benchmarks were really low but how it was smooth. So I fixed the OC, and added @show-p1984's MSM_MPDEC and MSM_THERMAL to speed it up and when I benchmarked it, I got 6788 in quadrant. That was a couple of hours ago. Now, I'm releasing it into the wild. The main focus of the Bricked Edition (like Bricked Kernel before it) is speed and stability. Undervolting is doable but you have to do it yourself and if you get random reboots I will not help you there. Enjoy Frosted Kernel everybody!

Hi thx for this kernel, haven't heard of it before. Is it compatible with sense ROMs or is it cm base only?

Why not add in the D2W/S2W patch as well? This would be best of both worlds. Easily the best CM kernel to date with it added. Pretty please?

I'll look at DT2W/S2W later, as I don't own this phone, and I did a huge cleanup of my source so I have to look through 15 defconfigs and make sure they're all configured right and compile them, and release them (5 different phones for this kernel plus planning to do two more!) plus some other projects I'm doing but I will look at it
This is CM Base Only

Awesome that you're willing to look into it. I know the S2W/DTW kernel in the mini forums does supple the patch so at least you don't have to go hunting it down. But thanks for the reply. This kernel would be amazing were that to be added. I really can't think of anything else that would make it better.
Just a question though...why is SmartassV2 disabled? Just out if curiosity?

Will DT2W/S2W still be added to this kernel? and is someone running it with androgeeks cm rom?

Why would you want to add d2w? Its a battery killer! The feature is cool and stuff but it keeps your phone awake and might also trigger on your pocket thus having screen on time, etc.. More battery drain. All that just not to push a button..
I'd rather see some more governors so we can tune the performance of the m4. My personal preference would be governors based off the interactive governor! That d be nice.

Kernel is discontinued right now, however I might consider bringing it up again some other time.
DT2W is NOT a battery killer. Yes, it does use some battery but certainly not enough to be called a battery killer
 @flar2 has talked about this before: http://elementalx.org/the-truth-about-kernels-and-battery-life/

The link not working, please update the link. I really want this kernel.

You can change around these settings or add your own if you like
What app do I use to tune this kernel?
I highly recommend Kernel Adiutor. It's free, open-source and is on the Google Playstore.
When will feature xyz be added?
I'll add it if I think everyone will benefit from this change, and that also means that I must find this feature to be useful.
Donations
While I am glad people want to help with the development through donations, I am generally opposed to accepting any form of donation.
Microphone not working?
Make sure the microphone gains in the sound section of KA is > 0. Alternatively, ensure that apply on boot has been unticked.
How do I use intellithermal?
In the CPU hotplug tab in KA, disable the two sliders underneath the slider for intellithermal. Then you may switch on intellithermal.
How can I help with development?
If you see or encounter any issues, let me know on github or on an XDA post. If you want to help develop, you can easily fork this project on github, add your own changes, then submit a pull request.

I'm back into kernel development after taking a long break since maintaining Dorimanx kernel for the S5. :highfive:
I've just released my first build (v1) which I've tested for some time now. Please let me know if there are any issues with the usual bug report format (dmesg + logcat + description of issue).
I just like a give another special thanks to @sunilpaulmathew for allowing me to use his kernel as base and for being open to the opensource community
Enjoy

Good to see you back to Kernel development... :good:
It will be a good deal for our S5 users
and hope you will still be active in my thread...

I'll try it, I just want perf fixes

Further testing has reveal that Faux sound control values don't stick after setting them in KA. This issue will be resolved in the next build.

Is this the kernal that was going to help with the RR issues? Thanks for this kernal.

If you mean the performance issues with Smartpack + RR, then yes. However, it will take some tweaking it get it "buttery smooth".

already noticing a HUGE difference in performance. It's phenomenal. Howcome I/O for internal is missing in KA
Does Faux audio interfere with V4A?

I guess you mean internal IO scheduler? Works fine on my end. Maybe reflash kernel or try one of the modded KA apps.
As for faux sound control and V4A, I think you can have both, as long as you don't tune the values for faux sound (which BTW is broken until the next release).

Odd, I would imagine it would be an issue with KA unable to detect the paths required for IO tuning. Maybe problems with permissions? Any logs because I'm running out of ideas...

@Saber and @GeTex Can you please post your recommended settings? Battery is more important to me than performance. Would appreciate it very much.

There's many ways to go about it, I cannot comment immediately and I'd rather work with @Saber first on a good configuration but so far I can recommend this
Change CPU gov to ondemandplus
Change CPU hotplug to intelliplug, change hytersis value to 4, change screen of freq to 10xx MHz, use profile balanced and touch boost on
Change internal I/O to sio or sioplus, readahead to 1024, external I/O to noop and readahead 2048, change swappiness to 30 and vfs cache pressure to 130, or keep 100 for neligable benefits, turn on KSM with an interval of 1000 or 500 for slightly better performance at cost of minor battery, make sure Zram is set to 420mb or less. Turn off the thermal drivers and use intellithermal on defaults
With a brand new battery I have 4hr10 screentime and 1d standby, that is with alot of background stuff such as 20 minute GPS pings and weather updates, wifi and data and GPS always on
Battery life isn't up to date yet, will need to test a few more days

I was previously using these settings. Do any of these still apply? Thanks
Cpu governor: nightmare
Cpuhotplug: intelliplug
Touchboost: on
Cpu threshold: 1250
Thermal: intellithermal on, vdd and corecontrol off
Gpu: adreno idler
I/o scheduler: zen
Sleep between scans: 1000ms
Power suspend mode: autosleep
Fast charge on
Fsync On

No adreno idler in this kernel. Best to use power suspend mode hybrid for better battery life (uses display state + kernel sleep).
Edit: Also no UKSM. You can enable KSM if you like, but I personally don't need it.

Please read my second post. Main goal of my profile is good battery + performance balance without that "lag" in RR. Change around the profile if you like to suit your taste (e.g. zzmoove instead of ondemandplus).

It's a little more extra compared to my recommendations, but either is fine for good balance.

When turning on intellithermal do I have to turn off vdd and corecontrol? Also do I have to turn off mpdescion?
