This patchset requires an update of kernel headers:

The insertion frequency is represented as "k/n", meaning IOAM will be
added to "k" packets over "n" packets, with 0 < k <= n <= 1000000.
Therefore, it provides the following range of insertion frequencies:
[0.0001% ... 100%].

Default frequency is "1/1" (i.e., applied to all packets) for backward
compatibility.

Previous command:
ip -6 ro ad fc00::1/128 encap ioam6 mode ...
    
New command:
ip -6 ro ad fc00::1/128 encap ioam6 [ freq k/n ] mode ...

Justin Iurman (2):
  Add support for the IOAM insertion frequency
  Update documentation
