When displaying sizes of various sorts, tc commonly uses the function
sprint_size() to format the size into a buffer as a human-readable string.
This string is then displayed either using print_string(), or in some code
even fprintf(). As a result, a typical sequence of code when formatting a
size is something like the following:
SPRINT_BUF(b);
print_uint(PRINT_JSON, "foo", NULL, foo);
print_string(PRINT_FP, NULL, "foo %s ", sprint_size(foo, b));
For a concept as broadly useful as size, it would be better to have a
dedicated function in json_print.
To that end, move sprint_size() from tc_util to json_print. Add helpers
print_size() and print_color_size() that wrap arount sprint_size() and
provide the JSON dispatch as appropriate.
Since print_size() should be the preferred interface, convert vast majority
of uses of sprint_size() to print_size(). Two notable exceptions are:
- q_tbf, which does not show the size as such, but uses the string
"$human_readable_size/$cell_size" even in JSON. There is simply no way to
have print_size() emit the same text, because print_size() in JSON mode
should of course just use the raw number, without human-readable frills.
- q_cake, which relies on the existence of sprint_size() in its macro-based
formatting helpers. There might be ways to convert this particular case,
but given q_tbf simply cannot be converted, leave it as is.

This patch adds support for the FQ-PIE packet Scheduler
Principles:
- Packets are classified on flows.
- This is a Stochastic model (as we use a hash, several flows might
be hashed to the same slot)
- Each flow has a PIE managed queue.
- Flows are linked onto two (Round Robin) lists,
so that new flows have priority on old ones.
- For a given flow, packets are not reordered.
- Drops during enqueue only.
- ECN capability is off by default.
- ECN threshold (if ECN is enabled) is at 10% by default.
- Uses timestamps to calculate queue delay by default.
Usage:
tc qdisc ... fq_pie [ limit PACKETS ] [ flows NUMBER ]
[ target TIME ] [ tupdate TIME ]
[ alpha NUMBER ] [ beta NUMBER ]
[ quantum BYTES ] [ memory_limit BYTES ]
[ ecn_prob PERCENTAGE ] [ [no]ecn ]
[ [no]bytemode ] [ [no_]dq_rate_estimator ]
defaults:
limit: 10240 packets, flows: 1024
target: 15 ms, tupdate: 15 ms (in jiffies)
alpha: 1/8, beta : 5/4
quantum: device MTU, memory_limit: 32 Mb
ecnprob: 10%, ecn: off
bytemode: off, dq_rate_estimator: off
