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>

+Steve's quick list of things that need finishing off:
+[they are in no particular order and range from the trivial to the long winded]
+
+ o Proper timeouts on each neighbour (in routing mode) rather than
+ just the 60 second On-Ethernet cache value.
+
+ o Support for X.25 linklayer
+
+ o Support for DDCMP link layer
+
+ o The DDCMP device itself
+
+ o PPP support (rfc1762)
+
+ o Lots of testing with real applications
+
+ o Verify errors etc. against POSIX 1003.1g (draft)
+
+ o Using send/recvmsg() to get at connect/disconnect data (POSIX 1003.1g)
+ [maybe this should be done at socket level... the control data in the
+ send/recvmsg() calls should simply be a vector of set/getsockopt()
+ calls]
+
+ o check MSG_CTRUNC is set where it should be.
+
+ o Find all the commonality between DECnet and IPv4 routing code and extract
+ it into a small library of routines. [probably a project for 2.7.xx]
+
+ o Add perfect socket hashing - an idea suggested by Paul Koning. Currently
+ we have a half-way house scheme which seems to work reasonably well, but
+ the full scheme is still worth implementing, its not not top of my list
+ right now.
+
+ o Add session control message flow control
+
+ o Add NSP message flow control
+
+ o DECnet sendpages() function
+
+ o AIO for DECnet
+
