Allow netdevsim to report "sampled" packets to the psample module by periodically generating packets from a work queue. The behavior can be enabled / disabled (default) and the various meta data attributes can be controlled via debugfs knobs. This implementation enables both testing of the psample module with all the optional attributes as well as development of user space applications on top of psample such as hsflowd and a Wireshark dissector for psample generic netlink packets.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
