Parameters:

@item amount
-A numeral string, whose value is related to how often output bytes
will
-be modified. Therefore, values below or equal to 0 are forbidden, and
-the lower the more frequent bytes will be modified, with 1 meaning
-every byte is modified.
-@item dropamount
-A numeral string, whose value is related to how often packets will
be dropped.

the more

dropped.
+Accepts an expression whose evaluation per-packet determines how
often bytes in that
+packet will be modified. A value below 0 will result in a variable
frequency.
+Default is 0 which results in no modification. However, if neither
amount or drop is specified,
+amount will be set to @var{-1}. See below for accepted variables.
+@item drop, dropamount
+Accepts an expression evaluated per-packet whose value determines
whether that packet is dropped.
+Evaluation to a positive value results in the packet being dropped.
Evaluation to a negative
+value results in a variable chance of it being dropped, roughly
inverse in proportion to the magnitude
+of the value. Default is 0 which results in no drops. See below for
accepted variables.
Negating the dropamount scale broke all prior usages of it.
Yes, with eval used now, the semantics for positive values was best
changed, so I mapped the old usage to negative values.
I've rarely seen this filter used in the wild. The only FATE test that
employs it uses it incidentally.
I'll add a note to the docs noting the legacy use and its remapping.
I've restored dropamount to its historical behaviour in
