Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

+/*
+ 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.
+
+ * The stored value for avbps is scaled by 2^5, so that maximal
+ rate is ~1Gbit, avpps is scaled by 2^10.
+
+ * 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.
