Yank, what can u say about Seeder app and Crossbreader? Does it overlap the kernel settings?

''AllowPurging*Of Assets" in*Memory. Is this can affect performance? If not, how can it active it on this kernel? Or its already activated?

Just edit /system/etc/init.kernel.sh and update zram size. Wil; work until you flash the kernel again.

For those who doesn't know about zram ram and swap, it working like this zram is the fastest. Ram is quick, swap in card is slow. Zram >ram> swap

Hi Yank!

Don't know, maybe this question is a little bit far away from your kernel.

I want/try to use Honey Player to stream music to three different Apple Airports.

No problem with connection, i can hear the noisy sound when the digital signal stops at the speakers. But there is no sound output.

Can this be related to Boeffle sound engine?

Maybe you or Andi have a clue...

Thank you for your great work, also Andi and Sotmax for his perfect ROM.

JP.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Not quite ;)

RAM is RAM, as such zram will never be faster than RAM, because zram stores memory pages into a compressedvirtual block device that resides in RAM and as such will always have the compress/decompress overhead, so it just cannot be faster as it's the same plus overhead ;)

Plus, running processes need to be in RAM, a memory page needed that is somewhere on swap needs to first get swapped in to RAM to be available for execution, that has a cost as well, and maybe some other memory page needs to first get swapped out to make room.

Thus, making a huge zram device will make lass real RAM available to the system, which in turn will have swap out/in more often, that's counterproductive.

So the best solution would be to add another physical 1 Gb of RAM to the S3, but that's just not possible, so swap, any kind of, is just a workaround to have a little more "memory" at the cost of performance.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] MrxSiN:
not much since s3 got high cpu and core

About the swappiness variable. It tells how fast it can move to swap area. It can be set between 0 and 100. 0 tells the Linux kernel to avoid swapping and 100 tell the kernel to use it aggressively. This value also affect zRam right? It is swap area. But in zRam, the size is small coz of compression. So i see now how aggressive multitasking were possible when zRam active :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
That is not according to me, that's designed that way. Swapping to/from RAM is fast, and you have still 333Mb of RAM your system can play with. But I'm quite confident your system wouldn't run any worse without any swap.

If you want more details, have a read at this : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory

What you see as "disk" there, is in fact zram in our context, and the more zram you define, the less free RAM (aka. physical memory) you'll actually have to run your system.

Certainly not a bad idea to go for a device with more RAM. I'll wait for Google's X-phone official specs before making any move ;)

You would need to ask that in a ROM thread / toolbox thread, that's not kernel related, and less my field of operation.

JP.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] MrxSiN:
Zram basically compresses unused apps within the system RAM. This allows the system to swap less needed processes to the Zram partition for faster access at a later time, instead of killing them. This does take up some of your ram though, so I imagine that the value you are setting is determining exactly what percentage of your ram that the zram partition is allotted.

Swap instead uses a small portion of the SDcard like RAM. The phone will attempt to keep as much within the ram as possible until fill, and then begin using the swap partition on the SDcard. At that point, the phone will begin moving inactive blocks of memory to the SD, freeing up RAM for active processes. If one of the pages on the SD needs to be accessed again, it will be moved back into RAM, and a different inactive page in RAM will be moved onto the SD ('swapped').

Swap files don't restrict available RAM but writing to the sdcard impacts the speed of opening apps.

And if I'm not wrong, swap also shorten the lifespan of your SD Card.

Correct it if it wrong :)

Since zRam compress and for use after, i suggest ~20% is good enough. zRAM were not require for who dont use their for multitasking

Re: [Kernel][2013/JAN/27][GT-I9300][Samsung JB U7][3.0.60][Aroma] Yank555.lu kernel v

Nope, zram is a swap partition, that resides in RAM. This part of RAM is lost as execution space for apps.

Also, not apps are put into swap, but memory pages !

If you use 350Mb zram, you lose 350Mb RAM for app execution as soon as you activate it !

There

no difference whatsoever

in the usage of zram or hardswap, both use the same kernel swap routines to put memory pages away. The routines are not even aware where the swap resides.

Zram -> resides in a virtual block device stored in RAM

Hardswap -> resides in a physical partition on the external SD card

Apart from that, it's 100% the same logic !

Only the bit about life spam of sd card is correct ;)

Thank u for taking the time to reply to every section this was very kind of u

1) yes I checked after every experinent via terminal emulator used init.kernel. sh to set it rebooted every time and checked every time it was giving me then required value

2)regarding dynamic zram I think that is what might be true bcos phone didn't freeze at 820mb zramni checked in terminal emulator

But I suspect it is not all the way dynamic only up till a certain extent

3)if u ever decide to try to go into details of this to confirm its working please inform me also I would be really thankful

Regarding conclusion u most probably are using class 10sd hard swap sucks on class 4 write speed is about 4mb/sec that's why I prefer zram till I get a higher sd

Regarding true multitasking provided by 250mb zram I already made a video that much was enough for me

Still not convinced it's a good idea, but you can do it easily !

Just select disabled for zram and hardswap in Aroma, set swappiness as you want (100 would be a good idea in your experiment).

Then put your script into /system/etc/init.d and you should be good.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
To sum up what has changed and what you need to really know :

1) Boeffla Sound in-call mic issue is fixed

2) In order to use your S3

to place a phone call, mic mode must be set to "Default" manually

!

3) LMK changes included, so please do consider to reexperiment to find your best settings starting with Stock Settings

Changelog v3.1g

updated to Boeffla-Sound: Engine 1.4.9

Completely neutralized mic_mode to avoid any interference to related registers when not used (fix for call issues with certain firmwares) by not doing any actions until mic_mode is enabled + using cached registers when restoring default mode back

mic_mode is now exclusive and not "intelligent" anymore. If you want to make calls, switch mic_mode back to default first

Safety-net introduced to avoid writing empty mic register cache values back to the registers in any case (thx to Yank555 for this idea)

fix reported issue about boeffla sound starting up in enabled mode is causing a boot loop

removed mic setting from Aroma completely, no need to change set it during boot

updated to kernel.org Linux 3.0.61

staging: android: lowmemorykiller: Add config option to support oom_adj values (Arve Hjonnevag)

staging: android: lowmemorykiller: Don't count reserved free memory (Arve Hjonnevag)

changed Aroma theme as I regularly got half blinded flashing the kernel in dark environments

added a new log file "/data/kernel-boot.log" which will records the kernel initialisation process (including all settings applied) in clear text

added a "wait for Android to start" before starting to set the kernel configuration (AndiP71)
