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 kernel solution +for this platform involves the following files: + +./include/linux/pti.h +./drivers/.../n_tracesink.h +./drivers/.../n_tracerouter.c +./drivers/.../n_tracesink.c +./drivers/.../pti.c + +pti.c is the driver that enables various debugging features +popular on platforms from certain mobile manufacturers. +n_tracerouter.c and n_tracesink.c allow extra system information to +be collected and routed to the pti driver, such as trace +debugging data from a modem. Although n_tracerouter +and n_tracesink are a part of the complete PTI solution, +these two line disciplines can work separately from +pti.c and route any data stream from one /dev/tty node +to another /dev/tty node via kernel-space. This provides +a stable, reliable connection that will not break unless +the user-space application shuts down (plus avoids +kernel->user->kernel context switch overheads of routing +data). + +An example debugging usage for this driver system: + *Hook /dev/ttyPTI0 to syslogd. Opening this port will also start + a console device to further capture debugging messages to PTI. + *Hook /dev/ttyPTI1 to modem debugging data to write to PTI HW. + This is where n_tracerouter and n_tracesink are used. + *Hook /dev/pti to a user-level debugging application for writing + to PTI HW. + *Use mipi_* Kernel Driver API in other device drivers for + debugging to PTI by first requesting a PTI write address via + mipi_request_masterchannel(1). + +Below is example pseudo-code on how a 'privileged' application +can hook up n_tracerouter and n_tracesink to any tty on +a system. 'Privileged' means the application has enough +privileges to successfully manipulate the ldisc drivers +but is not just blindly executing as 'root'. Keep in mind +the use of ioctl(,TIOCSETD,) is not specific to the n_tracerouter +and n_tracesink line discpline drivers but is a generic +operation for a program to use a line discpline driver +on a tty port other than the default n_tty. + +/////////// To hook up n_tracerouter and n_tracesink ///////// + +// Note that n_tracerouter depends on n_tracesink. +#include <errno.h> +#define ONE_TTY "/dev/ttyOne" +#define TWO_TTY "/dev/ttyTwo" + +// needed global to hand onto ldisc connection +static int g_fd_source = -1; +static int g_fd_sink = -1; + +// these two vars used to grab LDISC values from loaded ldisc drivers +// in OS.
