initial code repo
This patch creates initial code repo. For ceph, luminous stable release will be used for base code, and next changes and optimization for ceph will be added to it. For opensds, currently any changes can be upstreamed into original opensds repo (https://github.com/opensds/opensds), and so stor4nfv will directly clone opensds code to deploy stor4nfv environment. And the scripts for deployment based on ceph and opensds will be put into 'ci' directory. Change-Id: I46a32218884c75dda2936337604ff03c554648e4 Signed-off-by: Qiaowei Ren <qiaowei.ren@intel.com>

+=========================================
+ rbd-nbd -- map rbd images to nbd device
+=========================================
+
+.. program:: rbd-nbd
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+| **rbd-nbd** [-c conf] [--read-only] [--device *nbd device*] [--nbds_max *limit*] [--max_part *limit*] [--exclusive] map *image-spec* | *snap-spec*
+| **rbd-nbd** unmap *nbd device*
+| **rbd-nbd** list-mapped
+
+Description
+===========
+
+**rbd-nbd** is a client for RADOS block device (rbd) images like rbd kernel module.
+It will map a rbd image to a nbd (Network Block Device) device, allowing access it
+as regular local block device.
+
+Options
+=======
+
+.. option:: -c ceph.conf
+
+ Use *ceph.conf* configuration file instead of the default
+ ``/etc/ceph/ceph.conf`` to determine monitor addresses during startup.
+
+.. option:: --read-only
+
+ Map read-only.
+
+.. option:: --nbds_max *limit*
+
+ Override the parameter of NBD kernel module when modprobe, used to
+ limit the count of nbd device.
+
+.. option:: --max_part *limit*
+
+ Override for module param nbds_max.
+
+.. option:: --exclusive
+
+ Forbid writes by other clients.
+
+Image and snap specs
+====================
+
+| *image-spec* is [*pool-name*]/*image-name*
+| *snap-spec* is [*pool-name*]/*image-name*\ @\ *snap-name*
+
+The default for *pool-name* is "rbd". If an image name contains a slash
+character ('/'), *pool-name* is required.
+
+Availability
+============
+
+**rbd-nbd** is part of Ceph, a massively scalable, open-source, distributed storage system. Please refer to
+the Ceph documentation at http://ceph.com/docs for more information.
