Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future. Change-Id: I87543d81c9df70d99c5001fbdf646b202c19f423 Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@intel.com>

+Description: The FCoE bus. Attributes in this directory are control interfaces.
+Attributes:
+
+ ctlr_create: 'FCoE Controller' instance creation interface. Writing an
+ <ifname> to this file will allocate and populate sysfs with a
+ fcoe_ctlr_device (ctlr_X). The user can then configure any
+ per-port settings and finally write to the fcoe_ctlr_device's
+ 'start' attribute to begin the kernel's discovery and login
+ process.
+
+ ctlr_destroy: 'FCoE Controller' instance removal interface. Writing a
+ fcoe_ctlr_device's sysfs name to this file will log the
+ fcoe_ctlr_device out of the fabric or otherwise connected
+ FCoE devices. It will also free all kernel memory allocated
+ for this fcoe_ctlr_device and any structures associated
+ with it, this includes the scsi_host.

+Description: 'FCoE Controller' instances on the fcoe bus.
+ The FCoE Controller now has a three stage creation process.
+ 1) Write interface name to ctlr_create 2) Configure the FCoE
+ Controller (ctlr_X) 3) Enable the FCoE Controller to begin
+ discovery and login. The FCoE Controller is destroyed by
+ writing it's name, i.e. ctlr_X to the ctlr_delete file.
+
+Attributes:
+
+ fcf_dev_loss_tmo: Device loss timeout peroid (see below). Changing
+ this value will change the dev_loss_tmo for all
+ FCFs discovered by this controller.
+
+ mode: Display or change the FCoE Controller's mode. Possible
+ modes are 'Fabric' and 'VN2VN'. If a FCoE Controller
+ is started in 'Fabric' mode then FIP FCF discovery is
+ initiated and ultimately a fabric login is attempted.
+ If a FCoE Controller is started in 'VN2VN' mode then
+ FIP VN2VN discovery and login is performed. A FCoE
+ Controller only supports one mode at a time.
+
+ enabled: Whether an FCoE controller is enabled or disabled.
+ 0 if disabled, 1 if enabled. Writing either 0 or 1
+ to this file will enable or disable the FCoE controller.
+
+ lesb/link_fail: Link Error Status Block (LESB) link failure count.
+
+ lesb/vlink_fail: Link Error Status Block (LESB) virtual link
+ failure count.
+
+ lesb/miss_fka: Link Error Status Block (LESB) missed FCoE
+ Initialization Protocol (FIP) Keep-Alives (FKA).
+
+ lesb/symb_err: Link Error Status Block (LESB) symbolic error count.
+
+ lesb/err_block: Link Error Status Block (LESB) block error count.
+
+ lesb/fcs_error: Link Error Status Block (LESB) Fibre Channel
+ Serivces error count.

+Contact: Robert Love <robert.w.love@intel.com>, devel@open-fcoe.org
+Description: 'FCoE FCF' instances on the fcoe bus. A FCF is a Fibre Channel
+ Forwarder, which is a FCoE switch that can accept FCoE
+ (Ethernet) packets, unpack them, and forward the embedded
+ Fibre Channel frames into a FC fabric. It can also take
+ outbound FC frames and pack them in Ethernet packets to
+ be sent to their destination on the Ethernet segment.
+Attributes:
+
+ fabric_name: Identifies the fabric that the FCF services.
+
+ switch_name: Identifies the FCF.
+
+ priority: The switch's priority amongst other FCFs on the same
+ fabric.
+
+ selected: 1 indicates that the switch has been selected for use;
+ 0 indicates that the swich will not be used.
+
+ fc_map: The Fibre Channel MAP
+
+ vfid: The Virtual Fabric ID
+
+ mac: The FCF's MAC address
+
+ fka_peroid: The FIP Keep-Alive peroid
+
+ fabric_state: The internal kernel state
+ "Unknown" - Initialization value
+ "Disconnected" - No link to the FCF/fabric
+ "Connected" - Host is connected to the FCF
+ "Deleted" - FCF is being removed from the system
+
+ dev_loss_tmo: The device loss timeout peroid for this FCF.
+
+Notes: A device loss infrastructre similar to the FC Transport's
+ is present in fcoe_sysfs. It is nice to have so that a
+ link flapping adapter doesn't continually advance the count
+ used to identify the discovered FCF. FCFs will exist in a
+ "Disconnected" state until either the timer expires and the
+ FCF becomes "Deleted" or the FCF is rediscovered and becomes
+ "Connected."
+
+
+Users: The first user of this interface will be the fcoeadm application,
+ which is commonly packaged in the fcoe-utils package.
