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.

A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to + install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a + CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies + first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option + enabled for this to work. + + The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel + ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected + with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4 + bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on + bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a + time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in + <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to + 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows + and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet + driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>) + and winsock or NCSA's telnet. + + If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well + as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from + <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP + protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together + with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges + your kernel by about 8 KB. + + To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module + will be called plip. If unsure, say Y or M, in case you buy + a laptop later. |
