waipan Posted January 1, 2018 Posted January 1, 2018 Hi, could someone just add TCP BBR module into kernel? pls
waipan Posted January 25, 2018 Author Posted January 25, 2018 I found that I need to compile kernel with TCP BBR as build-in or module that takes a lot to do. Can this to be added in next kernel build? Cheers!

It is prepared to be simple: https://docs.armbian.com/Process_Contribute/#collaborate-on-the-project Edit this line: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/config/kernel/linux-rockchip-next.config#L788 Wait up to a day for kernel automated build at beta.armbian.com repository.
waipan Posted January 26, 2018 Author Posted January 26, 2018 Thank you @Igor! I've just added a pull request in the project but not sure if the procedure is correct or not. I've request to change CONFIG_TCP_CONG_BBR=y in linux-rockchip-next.config. Correct me if I'm wrong! On the other side, I do make a try to install Ubuntu and compile the kernel later.

waipan Posted January 26, 2018 Author Posted January 26, 2018 Thank you @Igor, you're the man. I finally complied the whole OS image myself with TCP BBR enable and it's working now!
waipan Posted January 29, 2018 Author Posted January 29, 2018 @Igor Hi! To keep BBR enable,I know it still not build-it for the next release. Can I just build my own kernel and update it when there's a new release? After compile new kernel and there will be several debs , is the command with 'dpkg -i linux-image*.deb' and 'reboot' will update kernel? Thank you!
