But it is a bug coming from original mm kernel?

So also stock has been affected?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] BRiANj64:
Probably not.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] hnorgaar:
Which version for S6 Edge

As the title says Im a bit confused to which version to download as there are many alphas and betas, which is the most stable stable as I dont want to fiddle around with new versions everyday

Also can I use this kernel with stock MM 6.01?

Thx for your effort to make a better kernel

Beta 9 has better battery life than Beta 7 ??

Also after 17 hours of uptime I haven't noticed any system freeze/deadlock
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ElementRn:
Beta 9 is the latest, but arter is awesome. V14 stable should be around soon. The betas are much better than stock kernel and capable as a daily driver. I have the same phone model like you. Flashed through all the work in progress releases from alpha 1 and loved them all from the moment I flashed them.. Read the last 10 pages of the thread. It will make it easier for you to decide, which version suites your personal needs.

Using kmemleak has revealed some memory leaks data visible to me and I've managed to fix a memory leak related to shrinker API, introduced in 7.0 version(lol).

Let's hope this is it and no other visible memory leaks are present :/
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] turulojko:
Did you fixed in the latest beta 9 or you'll release new version?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] OMassalia:
Probably in next release. Beta9 have memory leak issue
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] erghetto:
So this memory leak gives problem only on long uptime?

I usually turn off phone when i go to bed, so i shouldn't notice it, right?

edit: i'm trying beta 9 with supersu 2.74 system mode.

very fluid, things seems to open faster than with stock kernel of xtrestolite 3.3.1, but playing assassin's creed identity, phone gets hotter with this kernel.

I do not know what to do is select a new kernel
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] loris100:
this is the latest kernel ..14 beta9

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] arter97:
Finally solved the massive memory leak issue.

The culprit was on HMP scheduler, which I originally suspected the least likely place to durp.

Version 13.0 and up has this issue.

This issue was serious enough to make me consider retiring the kernel development altogether.

Kernel stack was eating a whooping 700MB of RAM after about 72 hrs of uptime.

I was drawing blank for 18 hrs, debugging and reverting hundreds of commits, then finally got the culprit commits on 5AM this morning.

And to the CPU big cores frequency reduction issue:

To those who don't know this dreadful issue, some race-conditions with user-space DVFS and kernel-space DVFS(yes, both) was causing big CPU cores' max frequency to stuck at some level.

This obviously drops the performance to a noticeable level.

This issue was present on Android 5.1 : it was getting stuck on 1704 MHz, and I workarounded it by renaming scaling_max_freq to ren_max_freq, which seems to work. But it also broke many CPU config applications such as Kernel Adiutor.

Fast forward to today, I also noticed kernel-space was causing race condition. It was getting stuck on 1300 MHz, this time.

This issue is less likely to be noticed with stock kernel since turning the screen off and back on will reset the frequency settings and set proper min/max frequencies for big CPU cores on the stock kernel.

But because custom kernels like mine offers users to manually set the CPU frequency, we had to fix the aforementioned "reset frequency" stuff on stock kernel, but it also introduces an issue where because frequency don't get reset periodically, users are stuck with the particular frequency forever.

I think I finally got a proper way to workaround this.

Users' min/max frequency settings will be stored separately and it will be used as the reset frequency instead whenever screen goes off and back on.

You will still notice this issue from time to time, if you're leaving the screen on for a very long time, but at least it would be much less noticeable.

Not to mention, this will also solve the app compatibility issues such as Kernel Adiutor.

I'll drop beta 10 within few days.

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Shark5060:
FCK YES!

I know how hard it can be to debug applications, let alone a KERNEL...

I honestly didn't think you'd find the rootcause of this issue within such a short amount of time. Amazing work.

So the "frequency stuck issue" is also present on stock kernel? Well isn't that interesting. I think the workaround will be suitable for like 99% of the users and shouldn't affect anyone except maybe heavy gamers who let their games run several hours while on charger.

Guys, arter's kernel is making Android System drains battery like hell, just for comparison on Hacker kernel 1D usage Android system drained 68 mah, on arter in 1H 30m Android system drained 16 mah already.

I'm not wanting to "compare" kernels. I already used arter on 5.1.1 and that was really good, but now its really getting me angry, because looks like I'm the only having this issue... If someone have a solution, please tell me

Just a friendly note for those complaining about RAM usage,

because major leaks has been resolved, I loosened up swap usage and re-disabled SPCM.

This will make Smart Manager report less free memory, but personally loosened up swap makes the whole device perform much faster.

And btw, those having weird issues, I highly suggest flashing DPDP or DPEK stock firmware.

Touchboost is mostly harmless.

While I do agree with you that bumping up the frequency while just typing on the keyboard is a bit power-unfriendly, touchboost itself is critical to have responsiveness.

I'll see if it can be user-configurable.

I didn't really tried to compare temperatures between kernels.

But I agree that AC Pirates was the most CPU intensive game I've ever played on my S6. Game takes place in sea so with all those physics processing happening, you should expect that.

Did a research, With OpenGL not optimized for multi core processors, there's nothing much we could do at the moment.

Something should reduce cpu load. That's where Vulkan comes in. Fortunately S6 has capable hardware to support. Wait for software update to bring Vulkan API to our devices, when Vulkan games kick in.

If you're interested, use Uncle Google to search for Vulkan (or DirectX12, their goal is basically same)
