linux-tkg/linux57-rc-tkg

Due to intel_pstate poor performances as of late, I have decided to set it to passive mode to make use of the acpi_cpufreq governors passthrough, keeping full support for turbo frequencies.

Not compatible with Nvidia proprietary driver currently

A custom Linux kernel 5.7 RC with added tweaks for a nice interactivity/performance balance, aiming for the best gaming experience.

Various personalization options available and userpatches support (put your own patches in the same dir as the PKGBUILD, with the ".mypatch" extension.

Comes with a slightly modified Arch config asking for a few core personalization settings at compilation time. If you want to streamline your kernel config for lower footprint and faster compilations : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Modprobed-db You can enable support for it at the beginning of the PKGBUILD file. Make sure to read everything you need to know about it.

Other stuff included:

• Per-CPU-arch native optimizations
• memory management and swapping tweaks
• scheduling tweaks
• optional built-in Thinkpad hardware functions driver / embedded controller LPC3 functions / SMAPI support
• optional "Zenify" patchset using core blk, mm and scheduler tweaks from Zen
