Why isn't that available? The full CMM-2 solution was considered too intrusive on the generic Linux kernel source and was not accepted for inclusion. What we have now is sometimes referred to as CMM-Lite (a subset of the original CMM-2 code). Whether the remaining function still is effective needs to be seen. It also depends a lot on the Linux application configuration. Unfortunately it completely lacks instrumentation, so the only evidence we've seen are lab experiments specifically designed to demonstrate the function.
