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>

+ * parse_vdso.c: Linux reference vDSO parser
+ * Written by Andrew Lutomirski, 2011-2014.
+ *
+ * This code is meant to be linked in to various programs that run on Linux.

+ *
+ * The vDSO is a regular ELF DSO that the kernel maps into user space when
+ * it starts a program. It works equally well in statically and dynamically
+ * linked binaries.
+ *
+ * This code is tested on x86. In principle it should work on any
+ * architecture that has a vDSO.

+ * To use this vDSO parser, first call one of the vdso_init_* functions.
+ * If you've already parsed auxv, then pass the value of AT_SYSINFO_EHDR
+ * to vdso_init_from_sysinfo_ehdr. Otherwise pass auxv to vdso_init_from_auxv.
+ * Then call vdso_sym for each symbol you want. For example, to look up
+ * gettimeofday on x86_64, use:
+ *
+ * <some pointer> = vdso_sym("LINUX_2.6", "gettimeofday");
+ * or
+ * <some pointer> = vdso_sym("LINUX_2.6", "__vdso_gettimeofday");

+ * vdso_sym will return 0 if the symbol doesn't exist or if the init function

+ * should be cached.
+ *
+ * vdso_sym is threadsafe; the init functions are not.
