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.
Apply to 2.6.12 (This includes all patches in 2.6.12.4): http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/2.6/2.6.12/2.6.12-ck5/patch-2.6.12-ck5.bz2 or for server version: http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/2.6/2.6.12/2.6.12-ck5/patch-2.6.12-ck5-server.bz2
web: http://kernel.kolivas.org all patches: http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/ Split patches available.
Changes since 2.6.12-ck4: -schedbatch2.8.diff +schedbatch2.9.diff A rare stall on hyperthreading was addressed and now batch tasks suspend properly.
-schediso2.12.diff SCHED_ISO was dropped entirely. It broke in ck4, and there is now a decent defacto standard for unprivileged realtime in mainline kernel with realtime RLIMITS so I'm supporting the use of that instead.
-isobatch_ionice2.diff +batch_ionice.diff Remove check for SCHED_ISO
-HZ-864.diff It seems there were far more areas of the kernel not ready for this Hz value than I could have anticipated much to my dismay even though all code should be written in a HZ neutral fashion. Return normal -ck to HZ=1000 and change ck-server to HZ=100.
-patch-2.6.12.3 +patch-2.6.12.4.bz2 Latest stable series
-2612ck4-version.diff +2612ck5-version.diff Version update.
