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>

+perf supports a simple JIT interface to resolve symbols for dynamic code generated
+by a JIT.
+
+The JIT has to write a /tmp/perf-%d.map (%d = pid of process) file
+
+This is a text file.
+
+Each line has the following format, fields separated with spaces:
+
+START SIZE symbolname
+
+START and SIZE are hex numbers without 0x.
+symbolname is the rest of the line, so it could contain special characters.
+
+The ownership of the file has to match the process.
