A patchset is not an OS. Like I can make it work for myself but good luck making it work for users.

The linuxCNC project[1] is a distribution based on the real time kernel extensions for debian for real time cnc machine control. It used to be possible to get few-us guaranteed latency, but with modern multicore machines you are stuck with about 100us due to the way the caching works. Still plenty fast enough for audio!

I thought you wanted it for yourself, though?

If you wanted something that lots of other people could use, in principle you could make your own Linux distribution with a particular set of patches.

You can't expect people to use your os.

Good point, I've been down that rabbit hole myself.

Carefully-worded question: If OP is describing a single monolithic music production application, how does "+ Jack audio server" make the system more appropriate for meeting soft-realtime scheduling deadlines?
