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>

+ NOTE: In order to authenticate connections you have to select
+ CRYPTO_HMAC and a hash function as well.
+
+ DRBD is a shared-nothing, synchronously replicated block device. It
+ is designed to serve as a building block for high availability
+ clusters and in this context, is a "drop-in" replacement for shared
+ storage. Simplistically, you could see it as a network RAID 1.
+
+ Each minor device has a role, which can be 'primary' or 'secondary'.
+ On the node with the primary device the application is supposed to
+ run and to access the device (/dev/drbdX). Every write is sent to
+ the local 'lower level block device' and, across the network, to the
+ node with the device in 'secondary' state. The secondary device
+ simply writes the data to its lower level block device.
+
+ DRBD can also be used in dual-Primary mode (device writable on both
+ nodes), which means it can exhibit shared disk semantics in a
+ shared-nothing cluster. Needless to say, on top of dual-Primary
+ DRBD utilizing a cluster file system is necessary to maintain for
+ cache coherency.
+
+ For automatic failover you need a cluster manager (e.g. heartbeat).

+ depends on BLK_DEV_DRBD
+ help
+
+ Say Y here if you want to simulate IO errors, in order to test DRBD's
+ behavior.
+
+ The actual simulation of IO errors is done by writing 3 values to
+ /sys/module/drbd/parameters/
+
+ enable_faults: bitmask of...
+ 1 meta data write
+ 2 read
+ 4 resync data write
+ 8 read
+ 16 data write
+ 32 data read
+ 64 read ahead
+ 128 kmalloc of bitmap
+ 256 allocation of peer_requests
+ 512 insert data corruption on receiving side
+
+ fault_devs: bitmask of minor numbers
+ fault_rate: frequency in percent
+
+ Example: Simulate data write errors on /dev/drbd0 with a probability of 5%.
