net: packet: add randomized fanout scheduler

Daniel Borkmann · davem330 · commit 5df0ddfbc920 · 2013-08-29T16:43:29.000-04:00
We currently allow for different fanout scheduling policies in pf_packet
such as scheduling by skb's rxhash, round-robin, by cpu, and rollover.
Also allow for a random, equidistributed selection of the socket from the
fanout process group.
