This patch adds a 'hairpin' (also called 'reflective relay') mode
port configuration to the Linux Ethernet bridge kernel module.
A bridge supporting hairpin forwarding mode can send frames back
out through the port the frame was received on.
Hairpin mode is required to support basic VEPA (Virtual
Ethernet Port Aggregator) capabilities.
You can find additional information on VEPA here:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/evb/http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2009/new-hudson-vepa_seminar-20090514d.pdfhttp://www.internet2.edu/presentations/jt2009jul/20090719-congdon.pdf
An additional patch 'bridge-utils: Add 'hairpin' port forwarding mode'
is provided to allow configuring hairpin mode from userspace tools.

Moved the dmae_command from the heap to the stack. This will save 56
bytes per bnx2x structure. As a side benefit, we can also reduce the
time the dmae_mutex is held. This is because do we not need to hold
this mutex when setting up the dmae command. The memory where is dmae
command is stored is not a shared resource and doesn not need to be

When a given ring is running out of space, the FW can send pause towards the
network. When working with multi-queues, when one queue is getting out of space
it can block all other queues. The preferred scheme is to send pause frames only
when running out of the shared internal chip buffers and if a given queue cannot
place a packet on the host, it will drop it. Since some users might want to work
in drop-less mode, allowing changing the behavior as a module parameter.

The new FW improves the packets per second rate. It required a lot of change in
the FW which implies many changes in the driver to support it. It is now also
possible for the driver to use a separate MSI-X vector for Rx and Tx - this also
add some to the complicity of this change.
All things said - after this patch, practically all performance matrixes show
improvement.
Though Vladislav Zolotarov is not signed on this patch, he did most of the job
and deserves credit for that.
