Cited commit added a new attribute before the existing group reference
count attribute, thereby changing its value and breaking existing
applications on new kernels.
Before:
# psample -l
libpsample ERROR psample_group_foreach: failed to recv message: Operation not supported
After:
# psample -l
Group Num Refcount Group Seq
1 1 0
Fix by restoring the value of the old attribute and remove the
misleading comments from the enumerator to avoid future bugs.

Extend psample to report the following attributes when available:
* Output traffic class as a 16-bit value
* Output traffic class occupancy in bytes as a 64-bit value
* End-to-end latency of the packet in nanoseconds resolution
* Software timestamp in nanoseconds resolution (always available)
* Packet's protocol. Needed for packet dissection in user space (always
available)

Currently, psample can only send the packet bits after decapsulation.
The tunnel information is lost. Add the tunnel support.
If the sampled packet has no tunnel info, the behavior is the same as
before. If it has, add a nested metadata field named PSAMPLE_ATTR_TUNNEL
and include the tunnel subfields if applicable.
Increase the metadata length for sampled packet with the tunnel info.
If new subfields of tunnel info should be included, update the metadata
length accordingly.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

Add a general way for kernel modules to sample packets, without being tied
to any specific subsystem. This netlink channel can be used by tc,
iptables, etc. and allow to standardize packet sampling in the kernel.
For every sampled packet, the psample module adds the following metadata
fields:
PSAMPLE_ATTR_IIFINDEX - the packets input ifindex, if applicable
PSAMPLE_ATTR_OIFINDEX - the packet output ifindex, if applicable
PSAMPLE_ATTR_ORIGSIZE - the packet's original size, in case it has been
truncated during sampling
PSAMPLE_ATTR_SAMPLE_GROUP - the packet's sample group, which is set by the
user who initiated the sampling. This field allows the user to
differentiate between several samplers working simultaneously and
filter packets relevant to him
PSAMPLE_ATTR_GROUP_SEQ - sequence counter of last sent packet. The
sequence is kept for each group
PSAMPLE_ATTR_SAMPLE_RATE - the sampling rate used for sampling the packets
PSAMPLE_ATTR_DATA - the actual packet bits
The sampled packets are sent to the PSAMPLE_NL_MCGRP_SAMPLE multicast
group. In addition, add the GET_GROUPS netlink command which allows the
user to see the current sample groups, their refcount and sequence number.
This command currently supports only netlink dump mode.
