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.

The packet you inject needs to be composed in the +following format: + + [ radiotap header ] + [ ieee80211 header ] + [ payload ] + +The radiotap format is discussed in +./Documentation/networking/radiotap-headers.txt. + +Despite many radiotap parameters being currently defined, most only make sense +to appear on received packets. The following information is parsed from the +radiotap headers and used to control injection: + + * IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_FLAGS + + IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_F_FCS: FCS will be removed and recalculated + IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_F_WEP: frame will be encrypted if key available + IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_F_FRAG: frame will be fragmented if longer than the + current fragmentation threshold. + + * IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_TX_FLAGS + + IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_F_TX_NOACK: frame should be sent without waiting for + an ACK even if it is a unicast frame + +The injection code can also skip all other currently defined radiotap fields +facilitating replay of captured radiotap headers directly. + +Here is an example valid radiotap header defining some parameters + + 0x00, 0x00, // <-- radiotap version + 0x0b, 0x00, // <- radiotap header length + 0x04, 0x0c, 0x00, 0x00, // <-- bitmap + 0x6c, // <-- rate + 0x0c, //<-- tx power + 0x01 //<-- antenna + +The ieee80211 header follows immediately afterwards, looking for example like +this: + + 0x08, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, + 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, + 0x13, 0x22, 0x33, 0x44, 0x55, 0x66, + 0x13, 0x22, 0x33, 0x44, 0x55, 0x66, + 0x10, 0x86 + +Then lastly there is the payload. + +After composing the packet contents, it is sent by send()-ing it to a logical +mac80211 interface that is in Monitor mode.
