KawaKernel Source Code for SM-A217M/F

Based on A217MUBSBDWK1

About

KawaKernel is a performance oriented kernel tuned for pushing as much performance as possible from the device.

Features

I recommend using KernelManager to change kernel settings

  • NET: Enabled ECN negotiation by default
  • NET: Improved network proformance by using TCP_NODELAY
  • MEM: Backported linux-5.17 lib/LZ4
  • MEM: ZRam enabled with LZ4 as default compression algorithm
  • MEM: KSM enabled (turned off by default)
  • CPU: Overclocked to 2210 Mhz and underclocked to 130 Mhz
  • CPU: Default CPUFREQ Governor: SCHEDUTIL
  • GPU: Overclocked to 1196 Mhz and underclocked to 100 Mhz
  • GPU: High speed frequency is 754 Mhz by default
  • GPU: Adaptive power policy (default)

Battery savings

  • Implemented Capacity Aware Superset Scheduler
  • Implemented Boeffla wakelock blocker v1.1.0
  • Implemented Powersuspend v2.0 driver
  • Dynamic Fsync
  • Kernelspace battery saver mode
