D3.1 to D3.5: Block devicesanalysis

A complete new analysis was added for block devices (disks), from new instrumentation in the kernel, to new state in the centralized store about the individual requests from processes and the disks request queues. It is now possible to fully understand how disks requests are served and how each process contributes to the disk load. 

This module includes tool and algorithms for "block devices", its required instrumentation in the kernel, and new state in the Central Store to fully understand how disks requests are served and how each process contributes to the disks load.

The git address is included to install and use this tool. It is obviously useable along the Trace Compass:
