netfilter: add xt_qtaguid matching module
This module allows tracking stats at the socket level for given UIDs. It replaces xt_owner. If the --uid-owner is not specified, it will just count stats based on who the skb belongs to. This will even happen on incoming skbs as it looks into the skb via xt_socket magic to see who owns it. If an skb is lost, it will be assigned to uid=0. To control what sockets of what UIDs are tagged by what, one uses: echo t $sock_fd $accounting_tag $the_billed_uid \ > /proc/net/xt_qtaguid/ctrl So whenever an skb belongs to a sock_fd, it will be accounted against $the_billed_uid and matching stats will show up under the uid with the given $accounting_tag. Because the number of allocations for the stats structs is not that big: ~500 apps * 32 per app we'll just do it atomic. This avoids walking lists many times, and the fancy worker thread handling. Slabs will grow when needed later. It use netdevice and inetaddr notifications instead of hooks in the core dev code to track when a device comes and goes. This removes the need for exposed iface_stat.h. Put procfs dirs in /proc/net/xt_qtaguid/ ctrl stats iface_stat/<iface>/... The uid stats are obtainable in ./stats.
