This is the new FW HSI blob and the relevant definitions without logic changes.
It also included code adaptation for new HSI. New features are not enabled.

New FW/HSI includes:
- Support for 57712 HW
- Future support for VF (not used)
- Improvements in FW interrupts scheme
- FW FCoE hooks (stubs for future usage)

Commit 2ddaad397c entitled "tg3: Use
netif_set_real_num_{rx,tx}_queues()" added a new call to
netif_set_real_num_rx_queues in tg3_enable_msix().  This call also needs
to be added to the legacy path to correctly reflect the actual number of
rx queues.

ebc0ffae5d fib: RCU conversion of fib_lookup()
fib_lookup() converted to be called in RCU protected context, no
reference taken and released on a contended cache line (fib_clntref)

fib_table_lookup() and fib_semantic_match() get an additional parameter.

struct fib_info gets an rcu_head field, and is freed after an rcu grace
period.

Stress test :
(Sending 160.000.000 UDP frames on same neighbour,

32bit kernel, FIB_HASH) (about same results for FIB_TRIE)

e12b453904 bonding: fix to rejoin multicast groups immediately
The IGMP specs states that if the system receives a
membership report, it shouldn't send another for the
next minute. However, if a link failure happens right
after that, the backup slave and the switch connected
to this slave will not know about the multicast and
the traffic will hang for about a minute.

This patch fixes it to rejoin multicast groups immediately
after a failover restoring the multicast traffic.

d6bf781712 net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash table
David

This is the first step for RCU conversion of neigh code.

Next patches will convert hash_buckets[] and "struct neighbour" to RCU
protected objects.

Thanks

[PATCH net-next] net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash table

Instead of storing hash_buckets, hash_mask and hash_rnd in "struct
neigh_table", a new structure is defined :

struct neigh_hash_table {
       struct neighbour        **hash_buckets;
       unsigned int            hash_mask;
       __u32                   hash_rnd;
       struct rcu_head         rcu;
};

And "struct neigh_table" has an RCU protected pointer to such a
neigh_hash_table.

This means the signature of (*hash)() function changed: We need to add a
third parameter with the actual hash_rnd value, since this is not
anymore a neigh_table field.

caf586e5f2 net: add a core netdev->rx_dropped counter
In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we
drop it before it enters protocol stack :
- softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat)
- bad vlan tag (not accounted)
- unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted)

We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level,
and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so
that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev)

This is a generalization of commit 8990f468a (net: rx_dropped
accounting), thus reverting it.

Updates to this pointer are prevented by RTNL, so we dont need

rcu_dereference_check().

rtnl_dereference() is mainly a macro to document the locking invariant.

c7d4426a98 net: introduce DST_NOCACHE flag
While doing stress tests with IP route cache disabled, and multi queue
devices, I noticed a very high contention on one rwlock used in
neighbour code.

When many cpus are trying to send frames (possibly using a high
performance multiqueue device) to the same neighbour, they fight for the
neigh->lock rwlock in order to call neigh_hh_init(), and fight on
hh->hh_refcnt (a pair of atomic_inc/atomic_dec_and_test())

But we dont need to call neigh_hh_init() for dst that are used only
once. It costs four atomic operations at least, on two contended cache
lines, plus the high contention on neigh->lock rwlock.

Introduce a new dst flag, DST_NOCACHE, that is set when dst was not
inserted in route cache.

With the stress test bench, sending 160000000 frames on one neighbour,
results are :

10651db75a qeth: tagging with VLAN-ID 0
This patch adapts qeth to handle tagged frames with VLAN-ID 0 and
with or without priority information in the tag. It enables qeth to
receive priority-tagged frames on a base interface, for example from
z/OS, without configuring an additional VLAN interface.

1790c228fb drivers/atm/idt77252.c: Remove unnecessary error check
This code does not call deinit_card(card); in an error case, as done in
other error-handling code in the same function.  But actually, the called
function init_sram can only return 0, so there is no need for the error
check at all.

init_sram is also given a void return type, and its single return statement
at the end of the function is dropped.

A simplified version of the sematic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r exists@
@r@
statement S1,S2,S3;
constant C1,C2,C3;

*if (...)
 {... S1 return -C1;}
