Currently, every packet that matches a mirroring trigger (e.g., received packets, buffer dropped packets) is mirrored. Spectrum-2 and later ASICs support mirroring with probability, where every 1 in N matched packets is mirrored. Extend the API that creates the binding between the trigger and the SPAN agent with a probability rate parameter, which is an attribute of the trigger. Set it to '1' to maintain existing behavior. Subsequent patches will use it to perform more sophisticated sampling, by mirroring packets to the CPU with probability.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
