This is my "Squid Kernel" for the 2015 Moto G, codenamed osprey. It shares a common codebase with my kernels for surnia and lux. It consists of the latest Motorola MSM8916 kernel, with all the latest changes from CodeAurora and Kernel.org merged in, along with select cherry-picks and additions of my own. Flash it using TWRP. Bug reports and contributions are welcome.
This is a development thread. Questions should go in the Q&A thread (that will be created shortly).
This kernel supports both the stock ROM and custom ROMs. For the stock ROM and ROMs with WiFi in a separate kernel module, use the "osprey-stock" variant. For custom ROMs with WiFi drivers built in to the kernel, use the plain "osprey" version.
Disclaimer:
This is for the 2015 Moto G (osprey) only! Don't flash it on a previous Moto G, or surnia, or lux. This kernel is provided AS-IS, with no warranties. I am not responsible for bricking your device. Flash at your own risk.
