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>

+config FRAME_POINTER
+ bool
+ default y
+
+config ARM64_PTDUMP
+ bool "Export kernel pagetable layout to userspace via debugfs"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
+ select DEBUG_FS
+ help
+ Say Y here if you want to show the kernel pagetable layout in a
+ debugfs file. This information is only useful for kernel developers
+ who are working in architecture specific areas of the kernel.
+ It is probably not a good idea to enable this feature in a production
+ kernel.
+ If in doubt, say "N"
+
+config STRICT_DEVMEM
+ bool "Filter access to /dev/mem"
+ depends on MMU
+ help
+ If this option is disabled, you allow userspace (root) access to all
+ of memory, including kernel and userspace memory. Accidental
+ access to this is obviously disastrous, but specific access can
+ be used by people debugging the kernel.
+
+ If this option is switched on, the /dev/mem file only allows
+ userspace access to memory mapped peripherals.
+
+ If in doubt, say Y.
+
+config PID_IN_CONTEXTIDR
+ bool "Write the current PID to the CONTEXTIDR register"
+ help
+ Enabling this option causes the kernel to write the current PID to
+ the CONTEXTIDR register, at the expense of some additional
+ instructions during context switch. Say Y here only if you are
+ planning to use hardware trace tools with this kernel.
+
+config ARM64_RANDOMIZE_TEXT_OFFSET
+ bool "Randomize TEXT_OFFSET at build time"
+ help
+ Say Y here if you want the image load offset (AKA TEXT_OFFSET)
+ of the kernel to be randomized at build-time. When selected,
+ this option will cause TEXT_OFFSET to be randomized upon any
+ build of the kernel, and the offset will be reflected in the
+ text_offset field of the resulting Image. This can be used to
+ fuzz-test bootloaders which respect text_offset.
+
+ This option is intended for bootloader and/or kernel testing
+ only. Bootloaders must make no assumptions regarding the value
+ of TEXT_OFFSET and platforms must not require a specific
+ value.
+
+config DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX
+ bool "Set loadable kernel module data as NX and text as RO"
+ depends on MODULES
+ help
+ This option helps catch unintended modifications to loadable
+ kernel module's text and read-only data. It also prevents execution
+ of module data. Such protection may interfere with run-time code
+ patching and dynamic kernel tracing - and they might also protect
+ against certain classes of kernel exploits.
+ If in doubt, say "N".
+
+config DEBUG_RODATA
+ bool "Make kernel text and rodata read-only"
+ help
+ If this is set, kernel text and rodata will be made read-only. This
+ is to help catch accidental or malicious attempts to change the
+ kernel's executable code. Additionally splits rodata from kernel
+ text so it can be made explicitly non-executable.
+
+ If in doubt, say Y
+
+config DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA
+ depends on DEBUG_RODATA && !ARM64_64K_PAGES
+ bool "Align linker sections up to SECTION_SIZE"
+ help
+ If this option is enabled, sections that may potentially be marked as
+ read only or non-executable will be aligned up to the section size of
+ the kernel. This prevents sections from being split into pages and
+ avoids a potential TLB penalty. The downside is an increase in
+ alignment and potentially wasted space. Turn on this option if
+ performance is more important than memory pressure.
+
+ If in doubt, say N
