Stable Pie Kernel for Note9

Stable Pie Kernel Update!

THEBOSS-Zeus Kernel 2.3.92

Changelog:-

• Implemented AnyKernel Installer for the kernel so... now Kernel will be flashed as a zip file! no more lockscreen/Samsung acc. issues (Make sure to clean install ROM if you have Samsung acc. issues)! [Big Thanks to @klabit87 for his awesome help! & @djb77 for his permission to use some of his scripts]
• Added MoroSound! because many requested it
• Disabled/Removed/Cleaned up the kernel further
• Optimized GPU futher by speeding up rendering frames to the display driver
• Disabled some security options that reported it might slow down kernel operation upto 30% [Thanks @arter97!]
• Optimized Sched CFS & Updated F2FS!
• Preparing the kernel to implement UFS driver from Pixel 3! HPB driver-[Host Performance Booster] HPB increases random read performance by up to 43% in 64GB random range.
• Updated GATOR to 7.0
• Updated Wifi driver!
• Added/Implemented UKSM
• Added/Implemnted Blue_Schedutil CPU Gov & Updated/Optimized SchedutilX CPU Gov
• Linux Updated/Upstreamed to 4.9.192
• Cleaned up the code after Linux update
• More optimization will come!! Stay tuned! It takes time and effort to apply every single thing from Oreo to Pie because sometimes it is not guaranteed to work for Pie while it works for Oreo especially GPU OC But It is possible to implement optimizations for GPU.

• Introduce CPUSet Assist driver for optimized multitasking
• Optimized Dcache & ARM driver to improve cache-line alignments performance
• Optimized CGroup to have a dedicated kmem_cache pool and avoid costly dynamic memory allocations.
• Removed alot of garbage code and cleaned it up
• State notifier driver used with Dynamic Fsync [Experimental!]
• Linux Updated/Upstreamed to 4.9.191
• Cleaned up the code after Linux update
• Added Tripandroid IO governor and updated to the newest version/patches
• More optimization will come!! Stay tuned! It takes time and effort to apply every single thing from Oreo to Pie because sometimes it is not guaranteed to work for Pie while it works for Oreo especially GPU OC But It is possible to implement optimizations for GPU.

THEBOSS-Zeus Kernel 2.3.90

Changelog:-

• Imported N960FXXS3CSG5, N960FXXS3CSH2 OSRC
• Updated Ramdisk to the latest build
• Updated Kernel build base to the lastest available
• Removed alot of garbage code and cleaned it up
• Updated lib lz4 modules from 2013 to 2018/2019 including all updates which makes it possible to enable applications to use fast and/or high compression depending on the use case
• State notifier driver enabled & will be used for further optimizations
• Linux Updated/Upstreamed to 4.9.190
• Removed further alot of useless files and drivers that is not being used for Note 9
• Added Anxiety & Maple IO governor and updated to the newest version/patches
• Implemented IO Switcher Driver (Taken from Oreo kernel) which will save more battery by switching IO Governor to 'Noop' when Screen Off and switch back to CFQ when is On for maximum battery and optimization + without need any user intervention... it does this automatically.
• More optimization will come!! Stay tuned! It takes time and effort to apply every single thing from Oreo to Pie because sometimes it is not guaranteed to work for Pie while it works for Oreo especially GPU OC But It is possible to implement optimizations for GPU.
