These are patches designed to improve system responsiveness and interactivity. It is configurable to any workload but the default ck* patch is aimed at the desktop and ck*-server is available with more emphasis on serverspace. THIS INCLUDES ALL THE PATCHES IN 2.6.13.2 SO YOU SHOULD START WITH 2.6.13 TO USE THESE PATCHES Apply to 2.6.13 http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/2.6/2.6.13/2.6.13-ck6/patch-2.6.13-ck6.bz2 or server version http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/2.6/2.6.13/2.6.13-ck6/patch-2.6.13-ck6-server.bz2 *prefetching should still be considered experimental* I appreciate the extensive testing it is receiving! web: http://kernel.kolivas.org all patches: http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/ Split patches available. Changes: Added: +sched-iso_tunables.patch Add a tunable in /proc/sys/kernel/iso_cpu to allow you to set the amount of cpu that SCHED_ISO tasks run realtime. It is 70% by default on -ck and 0% by default on -ckserver. +ck5_sp11.patch Massive update to the swap prefetching code to version 11. This makes the decision when to prefetch far more intelligent, the cost of the code much cheaper on SMP/preempt, fixes bugs, and substantially decreases the risk of the code causing out-of-memory conditions. The code is very safe and stable and quite effective. The incidence of regressions has dropped dramatically now but it still does need more testing. Removed: -per-task-predictive-write-throttling-1.patch This patch is causing as yet not well understood problems with I/O pauses so it has been removed till it is developed and tested further in -mm. Modified: -2613ck5-version.diff +2613ck6-version.diff Version update Cheers, Con
