Upstream is now maintained by myself after metak, the previous maintainer, announced that he'd stop maintaining the linux-clear package. Props to him for even creating the AUR package in the first place.

|
This repository includes a build tool for compiling the Linux kernel with performance patches from the Linux Clear project. It allows for build time speedups and for easier PKGBUILD configuration.
|
|
This repository is based on the AUR package [linux-clear](https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/linux-clear) (which is also maintained by me) and patches it's PKGBUILD file.
|
|
Before I took over the AUR package I maintained a softfork of the package here. Now it's a patcher for it as I am now able to introduce things to upstream.
|
|
## Warning
|
|
As with every other software, make sure to regularily update your kernel. Missing updates and security patches will make your system vulnerable to attacks.
|
|
|
|
## Changes
|
|
This repository improves/changes the following things over [linux-clear](https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/linux-clear):
|
|
- includes a build tool with build time performance improvements
|
|
- defaults to cpu governor `schedutil` instead of `performance` (you don't need maximum performance 24/7 anyway, use [`gamemode`](https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode) for maximum game performance or use [`cpu-power`](https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/cpupower/))
|
|
- includes the `powersave` cpu governor for battery-powered devices

To build this kernel, run this command in your terminal:
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sSL "https://git.staropensource.de/JeremyStarTM/jstm-optimized/raw/branch/develop/buildtool.sh">/tmp/buildtool.sh
|
|
chmod +x /tmp/buildtool.sh
|
|
/tmp/buildtool.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Building from local repository
|
|
If you've already built this kernel or want to compile the kernel from your local repository execute this:
|
|
```bash
|
|
env BUILDTOOL_LOCALDIR=SET ./buildtool.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Cleaning repository

To remove everything `makepkg` produced, simply run:
|
|
```bash
|
|
./cleantool.sh
|
