Yotam says:

The first patch introduces the psample module, a netlink channel dedicated
to packet sampling implemented using generic netlink. This module provides
a generic way for kernel modules to sample packets, while not being tied
to any specific subsystem like NFLOG.

The second patch adds the sample tc action, which uses psample to randomly
sample packets that match a classifier. The user can configure the psample
group number, the sampling rate and the packet's truncation (to save
kernel-user traffic).

The last two patches add the support for offloading the matchall-sample
tc command in the mlxsw driver, for ingress qdiscs.

An example for psample usage can be found in the libpsample project at:
https://github.com/Mellanox/libpsample

Yotam Gigi (4):
  net: Introduce psample, a new genetlink channel for packet sampling
  net/sched: Introduce sample tc action
  mlxsw: reg: add the Monitoring Packet Sampling Configuration Register
  mlxsw: spectrum: Add packet sample offloading support
