The code is already in net-next. This means you currently have to build your own kernel if you want to use it. This should be enough to get you going: https://github.com/google/bbr/blob/master/Documentation/bbr-...

little side node here: the windows 10 creator's update introduced experimental support for CUBIC https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/98/slides/slides-98-tcpm-tc... which is currently the default CC algorithm used in linux.
However, the slides state that in the absence of AQM qdelay gets worse when CUBIC is used

Several BBR flows do actually converge quite nicely to a fair share of bandwidth. Take a look at the presentation the guys from google gave at the IETF 97 in Seoul: https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/97/slides/slides-97-iccrg-b...
I think there is also a recording of that session somewhere on youtube.
