Eric Dumazet 12efa1fa43 net_sched: gen_estimator: account for timer drifts
Under heavy stress, timer used in estimators tend to slowly be delayed
by a few jiffies, leading to inaccuracies.

Lets remember what was the last scheduled jiffies so that we get more
precise estimations, without having to add a multiply/divide in the loop
to account for the drifts.

This code is NOT intended to be used for statistics collection,
its purpose is to provide a base for statistical multiplexing
for controlled load service.
If you need only statistics, run a user level daemon which
periodically reads byte counters.
Unfortunately, rate estimation is not a very easy task.
F.e. I did not find a simple way to estimate the current peak rate
and even failed to formulate the problem 8)8)
So I preferred not to built an estimator into the scheduler,
but run this task separately.
Ideally, it should be kernel thread(s), but for now it runs
from timers, which puts apparent top bounds on the number of rated
flows, has minimal overhead on small, but is enough
to handle controlled load service, sets of aggregates.
We measure rate over A=(1<<interval) seconds and evaluate EWMA:
avrate = avrate*(1-W) + rate*W
where W is chosen as negative power of 2: W = 2^(-ewma_log)
The resulting time constant is:
T = A/(-ln(1-W))
NOTES.
* avbps and avpps are scaled by 2^5.
* both values are reported as 32 bit unsigned values. bps can
overflow for fast links : max speed being 34360Mbit/sec
* Minimal interval is HZ/4=250msec (it is the greatest common divisor
for HZ=100 and HZ=1024 8)), maximal interval
is (HZ*2^EST_MAX_INTERVAL)/4 = 8sec. Shorter intervals
are too expensive, longer ones can be implemented
at user level painlessly.
