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.

+
+sysfs - _The_ filesystem for exporting kernel objects. 
+

+
+
+What it is:
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+sysfs is a ram-based filesystem initially based on ramfs. It provides
+a means to export kernel data structures, their attributes, and the 
+linkages between them to userspace. 
+
+sysfs is tied inherently to the kobject infrastructure. Please read
+Documentation/kobject.txt for more information concerning the kobject
+interface. 
+
+
+Using sysfs
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+sysfs is always compiled in if CONFIG_SYSFS is defined. You can access
+it by doing:
+
+    mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys 
+
+
+Directory Creation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+For every kobject that is registered with the system, a directory is
+created for it in sysfs. That directory is created as a subdirectory
+of the kobject's parent, expressing internal object hierarchies to
+userspace. Top-level directories in sysfs represent the common
+ancestors of object hierarchies; i.e. the subsystems the objects
+belong to. 
+
+Sysfs internally stores a pointer to the kobject that implements a
+directory in the sysfs_dirent object associated with the directory. In
+the past this kobject pointer has been used by sysfs to do reference
+counting directly on the kobject whenever the file is opened or closed.
+With the current sysfs implementation the kobject reference count is
+only modified directly by the function sysfs_schedule_callback().
+
+
+Attributes
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Attributes can be exported for kobjects in the form of regular files in
+the filesystem. Sysfs forwards file I/O operations to methods defined
+for the attributes, providing a means to read and write kernel
+attributes.
+
+Attributes should be ASCII text files, preferably with only one value
+per file. It is noted that it may not be efficient to contain only one
+value per file, so it is socially acceptable to express an array of
+values of the same type. 
+
+Mixing types, expressing multiple lines of data, and doing fancy
+formatting of data is heavily frowned upon. Doing these things may get
+you publicly humiliated and your code rewritten without notice. 
+
+
+An attribute definition is simply:
+
+struct attribute {
+        char                    * name;
+        struct module		*owner;
+        umode_t                 mode;
+};
+
+
+int sysfs_create_file(struct kobject * kobj, const struct attribute * attr);
+void sysfs_remove_file(struct kobject * kobj, const struct attribute * attr);
+
+
+A bare attribute contains no means to read or write the value of the
+attribute. Subsystems are encouraged to define their own attribute
+structure and wrapper functions for adding and removing attributes for
+a specific object type. 
+
+For example, the driver model defines struct device_attribute like:
+
+struct device_attribute {
+	struct attribute	attr;
+	ssize_t (*show)(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr,
+			char *buf);
+	ssize_t (*store)(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr,
+			 const char *buf, size_t count);
+};
+
+int device_create_file(struct device *, const struct device_attribute *);
+void device_remove_file(struct device *, const struct device_attribute *);
+
+It also defines this helper for defining device attributes: 
+
+#define DEVICE_ATTR(_name, _mode, _show, _store) \
+struct device_attribute dev_attr_##_name = __ATTR(_name, _mode, _show, _store)
+
+For example, declaring
+
+static DEVICE_ATTR(foo, S_IWUSR | S_IRUGO, show_foo, store_foo);
+
+is equivalent to doing:
+
+static struct device_attribute dev_attr_foo = {
+	.attr = {
+		.name = "foo",
+		.mode = S_IWUSR | S_IRUGO,
+	},
+	.show = show_foo,
+	.store = store_foo,
+};
+
+
+Subsystem-Specific Callbacks
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When a subsystem defines a new attribute type, it must implement a
+set of sysfs operations for forwarding read and write calls to the
+show and store methods of the attribute owners. 
+
+struct sysfs_ops {
+        ssize_t (*show)(struct kobject *, struct attribute *, char *);
+        ssize_t (*store)(struct kobject *, struct attribute *, const char *, size_t);
+};
+
+[ Subsystems should have already defined a struct kobj_type as a
+descriptor for this type, which is where the sysfs_ops pointer is
+stored. See the kobject documentation for more information. ]
+
+When a file is read or written, sysfs calls the appropriate method
+for the type. The method then translates the generic struct kobject
+and struct attribute pointers to the appropriate pointer types, and
+calls the associated methods. 
+
+
+To illustrate:
+
+#define to_dev(obj) container_of(obj, struct device, kobj)
+#define to_dev_attr(_attr) container_of(_attr, struct device_attribute, attr)
+
+static ssize_t dev_attr_show(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr,
+                             char *buf)
+{
+        struct device_attribute *dev_attr = to_dev_attr(attr);
+        struct device *dev = to_dev(kobj);
+        ssize_t ret = -EIO;
+
+        if (dev_attr->show)
+                ret = dev_attr->show(dev, dev_attr, buf);
+        if (ret >= (ssize_t)PAGE_SIZE) {
+                print_symbol("dev_attr_show: %s returned bad count\n",
+                                (unsigned long)dev_attr->show);
+        }
+        return ret;
+}
+
+
+
+Reading/Writing Attribute Data
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To read or write attributes, show() or store() methods must be
+specified when declaring the attribute. The method types should be as
+simple as those defined for device attributes:
+
+ssize_t (*show)(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf);
+ssize_t (*store)(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr,
+                 const char *buf, size_t count);
+
+IOW, they should take only an object, an attribute, and a buffer as parameters.
+
+
+sysfs allocates a buffer of size (PAGE_SIZE) and passes it to the
+method. Sysfs will call the method exactly once for each read or
+write. This forces the following behavior on the method
+implementations: 
+
+- On read(2), the show() method should fill the entire buffer. 
+  Recall that an attribute should only be exporting one value, or an
+  array of similar values, so this shouldn't be that expensive. 
+
+  This allows userspace to do partial reads and forward seeks
+  arbitrarily over the entire file at will. If userspace seeks back to
+  zero or does a pread(2) with an offset of '0' the show() method will
+  be called again, rearmed, to fill the buffer.
+
+- On write(2), sysfs expects the entire buffer to be passed during the
+  first write. Sysfs then passes the entire buffer to the store()
+  method. 
+  
+  When writing sysfs files, userspace processes should first read the
+  entire file, modify the values it wishes to change, then write the
+  entire buffer back. 
+
+  Attribute method implementations should operate on an identical
+  buffer when reading and writing values. 
+
+Other notes:
+
+- Writing causes the show() method to be rearmed regardless of current
+  file position.
+
+- The buffer will always be PAGE_SIZE bytes in length. On i386, this
+  is 4096. 
+
+- show() methods should return the number of bytes printed into the
+  buffer. This is the return value of scnprintf().
+
+- show() should always use scnprintf().
+
+- store() should return the number of bytes used from the buffer. If the
+  entire buffer has been used, just return the count argument.
+
+- show() or store() can always return errors. If a bad value comes
+  through, be sure to return an error.
+
+- The object passed to the methods will be pinned in memory via sysfs
+  referencing counting its embedded object. However, the physical 
+  entity (e.g. device) the object represents may not be present. Be 
+  sure to have a way to check this, if necessary. 
+
+
+A very simple (and naive) implementation of a device attribute is:
+
+static ssize_t show_name(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr,
+                         char *buf)
+{
+	return scnprintf(buf, PAGE_SIZE, "%s\n", dev->name);
+}
+
+static ssize_t store_name(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr,
+                          const char *buf, size_t count)
+{
+        snprintf(dev->name, sizeof(dev->name), "%.*s",
+                 (int)min(count, sizeof(dev->name) - 1), buf);
+	return count;
+}
+
+static DEVICE_ATTR(name, S_IRUGO, show_name, store_name);
+
+
+(Note that the real implementation doesn't allow userspace to set the 
+name for a device.)
+
+
+Top Level Directory Layout
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The sysfs directory arrangement exposes the relationship of kernel
+data structures. 
+
+The top level sysfs directory looks like:
+
+block/
+bus/
+class/
+dev/
+devices/
+firmware/
+net/
+fs/
+
+devices/ contains a filesystem representation of the device tree. It maps
+directly to the internal kernel device tree, which is a hierarchy of
+struct device. 
+
+bus/ contains flat directory layout of the various bus types in the
+kernel. Each bus's directory contains two subdirectories:
+
+	devices/
+	drivers/
+
+devices/ contains symlinks for each device discovered in the system
+that point to the device's directory under root/.
+
+drivers/ contains a directory for each device driver that is loaded
+for devices on that particular bus (this assumes that drivers do not
+span multiple bus types).
+
+fs/ contains a directory for some filesystems.  Currently each
+filesystem wanting to export attributes must create its own hierarchy
+below fs/ (see ./fuse.txt for an example).
+
+dev/ contains two directories char/ and block/. Inside these two
+directories there are symlinks named <major>:<minor>.  These symlinks
+point to the sysfs directory for the given device.  /sys/dev provides a
+quick way to lookup the sysfs interface for a device from the result of
+a stat(2) operation.
+
+More information can driver-model specific features can be found in
+Documentation/driver-model/. 
+
+
+TODO: Finish this section.

+
+Documentation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The sysfs directory structure and the attributes in each directory define an
+ABI between the kernel and user space. As for any ABI, it is important that
+this ABI is stable and properly documented. All new sysfs attributes must be
+documented in Documentation/ABI. See also Documentation/ABI/README for more
+information.
