I have generally been delightedly following the Robert Nelson's debian kernel builds.
https://rcn-ee.net/deb/wheezy-armhf and the day came where I wanted to try out a tiny patch adding BQL support to the beaglebone black. There is something of a huge gap between the available and largely conflicting data on the internet as to how to build a kernel properly and the lovely debs he provides. It's a really tiny patch, (5 lines). My hope would be to see network latency on the beaglebone improve dramatically with it and fq_codel. http://snapon.lab.bufferbloat.net/~d/0001-Add-BQL-support-to-cpsw-beaglebone-driver.patch But assembling all the pieces to actually build a kernel the right way elude me. Right now I'm trying to cross compile using an armeabihf toolchain, and not having figured out how to create a .deb file to use... link to how to cross compile a .deb kernel build?? OR: ... if there's someone out there daring enough to try something that might help networking, but might also lock up the networking interface in this first test, AND can patch and build a working kernel... I'd love to see this patch tried.
