148 [ Open vSwitch team ]
149 * New upstream version
150 - First supported release of OVN. See ovn-architecture(7) for more
151 details.
152 - ovsdb-server:
153 * New "monitor_cond" "monitor_cond_update" and "update2" extensions to
154 RFC 7047.
155 - OpenFlow:
156 * OpenFlow 1.3+ bundles are now supported for group mods as well as
157 flow mods and port mods. Both 'atomic' and 'ordered' bundle
158 flags are supported for group mods as well as flow mods.
159 * OpenFlow 1.1+ OFPT_QUEUE_GET_CONFIG_REQUEST now supports OFPP_ANY.
160 * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPMP_QUEUE_DESC is now supported.
161 * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPT_TABLE_STATUS is now supported.
162 * New property-based packet-in message format NXT_PACKET_IN2 with support
163 for arbitrary user-provided data and for serializing flow table
164 traversal into a continuation for later resumption.
165 * New extension message NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG2 to allow OpenFlow 1.4-like
166 control over asynchronous messages in earlier versions of OpenFlow.
167 * OpenFlow 1.3 Extension 230, adding OpenFlow Bundles support, is
168 now implemented. Only flow mod and port mod messages are supported
169 in bundles.
170 * New OpenFlow extension NXM_NX_MPLS_TTL to provide access to MPLS TTL.
171 * New output option, output(port=N,max_len=M), to allow truncating a
172 packet to size M bytes when outputting to port N.
173 * New command OFPGC_ADD_OR_MOD for OFPT_GROUP_MOD message that adds a
174 new group or modifies an existing groups
175 * The optional OpenFlow packet buffering feature is deprecated in
176 this release, and will be removed in the next OVS release
177 (2.7). After the change OVS always sends the 'buffer_id' as
178 0xffffffff in packet-in messages and will send an error
179 response if any other value of this field is included in
180 packet-out and flow mod sent by a controller. Controllers are
181 already expected to work properly in cases where the switch can
182 not buffer packets, so this change should not affect existing
183 users.
184 * New OpenFlow extension NXT_CT_FLUSH_ZONE to flush conntrack zones.
185 - Improved OpenFlow version compatibility for actions:
186 * New OpenFlow extension to support the "group" action in OpenFlow 1.0.
187 * OpenFlow 1.0 "enqueue" action now properly translated to OpenFlow 1.1+.
188 * OpenFlow 1.1 "mod_nw_ecn" and OpenFlow 1.1+ "mod_nw_ttl" actions now
189 properly translated to OpenFlow 1.0.
190 - ovs-ofctl:
191 * queue-get-config command now allows a queue ID to be specified.
192 * '--bundle' option can now be used with OpenFlow 1.3 and with group mods.
193 * New "bundle" command allows executing a mixture of flow and group mods
194 as a single atomic transaction.
195 * New option "--color" to produce colorized output for some commands.
196 * New option '--may-create' to use OFPGC_ADD_OR_MOD in mod-group command.
197 - IPFIX:
198 * New "sampling_port" option for "sample" action to allow sampling
199 ingress and egress tunnel metadata with IPFIX.
200 * New ovs-ofctl commands "dump-ipfix-bridge" and "dump-ipfix-flow" to
201 dump bridge IPFIX statistics and flow based IPFIX statistics.
202 * New setting other-config:virtual_obs_id to add an arbitrary string
203 to IPFIX records.
204 - Linux:
205 * New QoS type "linux-noop" that prevents Open vSwitch from trying to
206 manage QoS for a given port (useful when other software manages QoS).
207 - DPDK:
208 * New option "n_rxq" for PMD interfaces.
209 Old 'other_config:n-dpdk-rxqs' is no longer supported.
210 Not supported by vHost interfaces. For them number of rx and tx queues
211 is applied from connected virtio device.
212 * New 'other_config:pmd-rxq-affinity' field for PMD interfaces, that
213 allows to pin port's rx queues to desired cores.
214 * New appctl command 'dpif-netdev/pmd-rxq-show' to check the port/rxq
215 assignment.
216 * Type of log messages from PMD threads changed from INFO to DBG.
217 * QoS functionality with sample egress-policer implementation.
218 * The mechanism for configuring DPDK has changed to use database
219 * Sensible defaults have been introduced for many of the required
220 configuration options
221 * DB entries have been added for many of the DPDK EAL command line
222 arguments. Additional arguments can be passed via the dpdk-extra
223 entry.
224 * Add ingress policing functionality.
225 * PMD threads servicing vHost User ports can now come from the NUMA
226 node that device memory is located on if CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_VHOST_NUMA
227 is enabled in DPDK.
228 * Basic connection tracking for the userspace datapath (no ALG,
229 fragmentation or NAT support yet)
230 * Support for DPDK 16.07
231 * Optional support for DPDK pdump enabled.
232 * Jumbo frame support
233 * Remove dpdkvhostcuse port type.
234 * OVS client mode for vHost and vHost reconnect (Requires QEMU 2.7)
235 - Increase number of registers to 16.
236 - ovs-benchmark: This utility has been removed due to lack of use and
237 bitrot.
238 - ovs-appctl:
239 * New "vlog/close" command.
240 - ovs-ctl:
241 * Added the ability to selectively start the forwarding and database
242 functions (ovs-vswitchd and ovsdb-server, respectively).
243 - ovsdb-server:
244 * Remove max number of sessions limit, to enable connection scaling
245 testing.

255 * Datapath supports kernel upto 4.6.
256 - Tunnels:
257 * Flow based tunnel match and action can be used for IPv6 address using
258 tun_ipv6_src, tun_ipv6_dst fields.
259 * Added support for IPv6 tunnels, for details checkout FAQ.
260 * Deprecated support for IPsec tunnels ports.
261 - A wrapper script, 'ovs-tcpdump', to easily port-mirror an OVS port and
262 watch with tcpdump
263 - Introduce --no-self-confinement flag that allows daemons to work with
264 sockets outside their run directory.
265 - ovs-pki: Changed message digest algorithm from SHA-1 to SHA-512 because
266 SHA-1 is no longer secure and some operating systems have started to
267 disable it in OpenSSL.
268 - Add 'mtu_request' column to the Interface table. It can be used to
269 configure the MTU of non-internal ports.

292 - Dropped support for Python older than version 2.7. As a consequence,
293 using Open vSwitch 2.5 or later on XenServer 6.5 or earlier (which
294 have Python 2.4) requires first installing Python 2.7.
295 - OpenFlow:
296 * Group chaining (where one OpenFlow group triggers another) is
297 now supported.
298 * OpenFlow 1.4+ "importance" is now considered for flow eviction.
299 * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPTC_EVICTION is now implemented.
300 * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPTC_VACANCY_EVENTS is now implemented.
301 * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPMP_TABLE_DESC is now implemented.
302 * Allow modifying the ICMPv4/ICMPv6 type and code fields.
303 * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG and OFPT_GET_ASYNC_CONFIG are

307 - Tunnels:
308 * Geneve tunnels can now match and set options and the OAM bit.
309 * The nonstandard GRE64 tunnel extension has been dropped.
310 - Support Multicast Listener Discovery (MLDv1 and MLDv2).
311 - Add 'symmetric_l3l4' and 'symmetric_l3l4+udp' hash functions.
312 - sFlow agent now reports tunnel and MPLS structures.
313 - New 'check-system-userspace', 'check-kmod' and 'check-kernel' Makefile
314 targets to run a new system testsuite. These tests can be run inside
315 a Vagrant box. See INSTALL.md for details
316 - Mark --syslog-target argument as deprecated. It will be removed in
317 the next OVS release.
318 - Added --user option to all daemons
319 - Add support for connection tracking through the new "ct" action
320 and "ct_state"/"ct_zone"/"ct_mark"/"ct_label" match fields. Only
321 available on Linux kernels with the connection tracking module loaded.
322 - Add experimental version of OVN. OVN, the Open Virtual Network, is a
323 system to support virtual network abstraction. OVN complements the
324 existing capabilities of OVS to add native support for virtual network
325 abstractions, such as virtual L2 and L3 overlays and security groups.
326 - RHEL packaging:
327 * DPDK ports may now be created via network scripts (see README.RHEL).
328 - DPDK:

339 * New upstream version
340 - Flow table modifications are now atomic, meaning that each packet
341 now sees a coherent version of the OpenFlow pipeline. For
342 example, if a controller removes all flows with a single OpenFlow
343 "flow_mod", no packet sees an intermediate version of the OpenFlow
344 pipeline where only some of the flows have been deleted.
345 - Added support for SFQ, FQ_CoDel and CoDel qdiscs.
346 - Add bash command-line completion support for ovs-vsctl Please check
347 utilities/ovs-command-compgen.INSTALL.md for how to use.
348 - The MAC learning feature now includes per-port fairness to mitigate
349 MAC flooding attacks.
350 - New support for a "conjunctive match" OpenFlow extension, which
351 allows constructing OpenFlow matches of the form "field1 in
352 {a,b,c...} AND field2 in {d,e,f...}" and generalizations. For details,
353 see documentation for the "conjunction" action in ovs-ofctl(8).
354 - Add bash command-line completion support for ovs-appctl/ovs-dpctl/
355 ovs-ofctl/ovsdb-tool commands. Please check
356 utilities/ovs-command-compgen.INSTALL.md for how to use.
357 - The "learn" action supports a new flag "delete_learned" that causes
358 the learned flows to be deleted when the flow with the "learn" action
359 is deleted.
360 - Basic support for the Geneve tunneling protocol. It is not yet
361 possible to generate or match options. This is planned for a future
362 release. The protocol is documented at
363 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gross-geneve-00
364 - The OVS database now reports controller rate limiting statistics.
365 - sflow now exports information about LACP-based bonds, port names, and
366 OpenFlow port numbers, as well as datapath performance counters.
367 - ovs-dpctl functionality is now available for datapaths integrated
368 into ovs-vswitchd, via ovs-appctl. Some existing ovs-appctl
369 commands are now redundant and will be removed in a future
370 release. See ovs-vswitchd(8) for details.
371 - OpenFlow:
372 * OpenFlow 1.4 bundles are now supported for flow mods and port
373 mods. For flow mods, both 'atomic' and 'ordered' bundle flags
374 are trivially supported, as all bundled messages are executed
375 in the order they were added and all flow table modifications
376 are now atomic to the datapath. Port mods may not appear in
377 atomic bundles, as port status modifications are not atomic.
378 * IPv6 flow label and neighbor discovery fields are now modifiable.
379 * OpenFlow 1.5 extended registers are now supported.
380 * The OpenFlow 1.5 actset_output field is now supported.
381 * OpenFlow 1.5 Copy-Field action is now supported.
382 * OpenFlow 1.5 masked Set-Field action is now supported.
383 * OpenFlow 1.3+ table features requests are now supported (read-only).
384 * Nicira extension "move" actions may now be included in action sets.
385 * "resubmit" actions may now be included in action sets. The resubmit
386 is executed last, and only if the action set has no "output" or "group"
387 action.
388 * OpenFlow 1.4+ flow "importance" is now maintained in the flow table.
389 * A new Netronome extension to OpenFlow 1.5+ allows control over the
390 fields hashed for OpenFlow select groups. See "selection_method" and
391 related options in ovs-ofctl(8) for details.
392 - ovs-ofctl has a new '--bundle' option that makes the flow mod commands
393 ('add-flow', 'add-flows', 'mod-flows', 'del-flows', and 'replace-flows')
394 use an OpenFlow 1.4 bundle to operate the modifications as a single
395 atomic transaction. If any of the flow mods in a transaction fail, none
396 of them are executed. All flow mods in a bundle appear to datapath
397 lookups simultaneously.
398 - ovs-ofctl 'add-flow' and 'add-flows' commands now accept arbitrary flow
399 mods as an input by allowing the flow specification to start with an
400 explicit 'add', 'modify', 'modify_strict', 'delete', or 'delete_strict'
401 keyword. A missing keyword is treated as 'add', so this is fully
402 backwards compatible. With the new '--bundle' option all the flow mods
403 are executed as a single atomic transaction using an OpenFlow 1.4 bundle.
404 - ovs-pki: Changed message digest algorithm from MD5 to SHA-1 because
405 MD5 is no longer secure and some operating systems have started to disable
406 it in OpenSSL.
407 - ovsdb-server: New OVSDB protocol extension allows inequality tests on
408 "optional scalar" columns. See ovsdb-server(1) for details.
409 - ovs-vsctl now permits immutable columns in a new row to be modified in
410 the same transaction that creates the row.
411 - test-controller has been renamed ovs-testcontroller at request of users
412 who find it useful for testing basic OpenFlow setups. It is still not
413 a necessary or desirable part of most Open vSwitch deployments.
414 - Support for travis-ci.org based continuous integration builds has been
415 added. Build failures are reported to build@openvswitch.org. See INSTALL.md
416 file for additional details.
417 - Support for the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1D-2004).
418 The implementation has been tested successfully against the Ixia Automated
419 Network Validation Library (ANVL).
420 - Stats are no longer updated on fake bond interface.
421 - Keep active bond slave selection across OVS restart.
422 - A simple wrapper script, 'ovs-docker', to integrate OVS with Docker
423 containers. If and when there is a native integration of Open vSwitch
424 with Docker, the wrapper script will be retired.
425 - Added support for DPDK Tunneling. VXLAN, GRE, and Geneve are supported
426 protocols. This is generic tunneling mechanism for userspace datapath.
427 - Support for multicast snooping (IGMPv1, IGMPv2 and IGMPv3)
428 - Support for Linux kernels up to 4.0.x
429 - The documentation now use the term 'destination' to mean one of syslog,
430 console or file for vlog logging instead of the previously used term
431 'facility'.
432 - Support for VXLAN Group Policy extension
433 - Initial support for the IETF Auto-Attach SPBM draft standard. This
434 contains rudimentary support for the LLDP protocol as needed for
435 Auto-Attach.
436 - The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports are now the IANA-assigned
437 numbers. OpenFlow is 6653 and OVSDB is 6640.
438 - Support for DPDK vHost.
439 - Support for outer UDP checksums in Geneve and VXLAN.
440 - The kernel vports with dependencies are no longer part of the overall
441 openvswitch.ko but built and loaded automatically as individual kernel
442 modules (vport-*.ko).
443 - Support for STT tunneling.
444 - Support to configure method (--syslog-method argument) that determines
445 how daemons will talk with syslog.
446 - Support for "ovs-appctl vlog/list-pattern" command that lets to query
447 logging message format for each destination.
448 - GRE64 and ipsec_gre64 tunnel protocol is deprecated and will be removed
449 from OVS v2.5 release.
450 * The openvswitch-testcontroller package is new. It reintroduces the
451 simple OpenFlow controller that was packaged with Open vSwitch prior to
452 version 2.1, at request of users who find it useful for testing basic
453 OpenFlow setups. It is still not a necessary or desirable part of most
454 Open vSwitch deployments.

495 * New upstream release:
496 - OpenFlow 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 are now enabled by default in
497 ovs-vswitchd.
498 - Linux kernel datapath now has an exact match cache optimizing the
499 flow matching process.
500 - Datapath flows now have partially wildcarded tranport port field
501 matches. This reduces userspace upcalls, but increases the
502 number of different masks in the datapath. The kernel datapath
503 exact match cache removes the overhead of matching the incoming
504 packets with the larger number of masks, but when paired with an
505 older kernel module, some workloads may perform worse with the
506 new userspace.
507 * Removed datapath packages because Linux 3.16 has adequate built-in
508 support. Closes: #740983.
509 - debian/control: Remove datapath package references. Add build
510 dependency on dh-autoreconf.

653 - support for Linux kernels up to 3.8
654 - FreeBSD is now a supported platform, thanks to code contributions from
655 Gaetano Catalli, Ed Maste, and Giuseppe Lettieri.
656 - ovs-bugtool: New --ovs option to report only OVS related information.
657 - New %t and %T log escapes to identify the subprogram within a
658 cooperating group of processes or threads that emitted a log message.
659 The default log patterns now include this information.
660 - OpenFlow:
661 - Allow bitwise masking for SHA and THA fields in ARP, SLL and TLL
662 fields in IPv6 neighbor discovery messages, and IPv6 flow label.
663 - Adds support for writing to the metadata field for a flow.
664 - Tunneling:
665 - The tunneling code no longer assumes input and output keys are
666 symmetric. If they are not, PMTUD needs to be disabled for
667 tunneling to work. Note this only applies to flow-based keys.
668 - New support for a nonstandard form of GRE that supports a 64-bit key.
669 - Tunnel Path MTU Discovery default value was set to 'disabled'.
670 This feature is deprecated and will be removed soon.
671 - Tunnel header caching removed.
672 - ovs-ofctl:
673 - Commands and actions that accept port numbers now also accept keywords
674 that represent those ports (such as LOCAL, NONE, and ALL). This is
675 also the recommended way to specify these ports, for compatibility
676 with OpenFlow 1.1 and later (which use the OpenFlow 1.0 numbers
677 for these ports for different purposes).
678 - ovs-dpctl:
679 - Support requesting the port number with the "port_no" option in
680 the "add-if" command.
681 - ovs-pki: The "online PKI" features have been removed, along with
682 the ovs-pki-cgi program that facilitated it, because of some
683 alarmist insecurity claims. We do not believe that these claims
684 are true, but because we do not know of any users for this
685 feature it seems better on balance to remove it. (The ovs-pki-cgi
686 program was not included in distribution packaging.)
687 - ovsdb-server now enforces the immutability of immutable columns. This
688 was not enforced in earlier versions due to an oversight.
689 - The following features are now deprecated. They will be removed no
690 earlier than February 2013. Please email dev@openvswitch.org with
691 concerns.
692 - Bridge compatibility.
693 - Stable bond mode.
694 - The autopath action.
695 - Interface type "null".
696 - Numeric values for reserved ports (see "ovs-ofctl" note above).
697 - Tunnel Path MTU Discovery.
698 - CAPWAP tunnel support.
699 - The data in the RARP packets can now be matched in the same way as the
700 data in ARP packets.

716 - New --sort and --rsort options for "dump-flows" command.
717 - "mod-port" command can now control all OpenFlow config flags.
718 - OpenFlow:
719 - Allow general bitwise masking for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in
720 IPv4, IPv6, and ARP packets. (Previously, only CIDR masks
721 were allowed.)
722 - Allow support for arbitrary Ethernet masks. (Previously, only
723 the multicast bit in the destination address could be individually
724 masked.)
725 - New field OXM_OF_METADATA, to align with OpenFlow 1.1.
726 - The OFPST_QUEUE request now reports an error if a specified port or
727 queue does not exist, or for requests for a specific queue on all
728 ports, if the specified queue does not exist on any port. (Previous
729 versions generally reported an empty set of results.)
730 - New "flow monitor" feature to allow controllers to be notified of
731 flow table changes as they happen.
732 - Additional protocols are not mirrored and dropped when forward-bpdu is
733 false. For a full list, see the ovs-vswitchd.conf.db man page.
734 - Open vSwitch now sends RARP packets in situations where it previously
735 sent a custom protocol, making it consistent with behavior of QEMU and
736 VMware.
737 - All Open vSwitch programs and log files now show timestamps in UTC,
738 instead the local timezone, by default.

748 - Added ability to configure dscp setting for manager and controller
749 connections. By default, these connections have a DSCP value of
750 Internetwork Control (0xc0).

785 unsuspecting users from the significant risks of SLB bonds (which are
786 documented in vswitchd/INTERNALS).
787 - Load balancing can be disabled by setting the bond-rebalance-interval
788 to zero.
789 - OpenFlow:
790 - Added support for bitwise matching on TCP and UDP ports.
791 See ovs-ofctl(8) for more information.
792 - NXM flow dumps now include times elapsed toward idle and hard
793 timeouts.
794 - Added an OpenFlow extension NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG that allows
795 controllers more precise control over which OpenFlow messages they
796 receive asynchronously.
797 - New "fin_timeout" action.
798 - Added "fin_timeout" support to "learn" action.
799 - The default MAC learning timeout has been increased from 60 seconds
800 to 300 seconds. The MAC learning timeout is now configurable.
801 - When QoS settings for an interface do not configure a default queue
802 (queue 0), Open vSwitch now uses a default configuration for that
803 queue, instead of dropping all packets as in previous versions.
804 - Logging to console and file will have UTC timestamp as a default for all
805 the daemons. An example of the default format is 2012-01-27T16:35:17Z.
806 ovs-appctl can be used to change the default format as before.
807 - New support for limiting the number of flows in an OpenFlow flow
808 table, with configurable policy for evicting flows upon
809 overflow. See the Flow_Table table in ovs-vswitch.conf.db(5)
810 for more information.
811 - New "enable-async-messages" column in the Controller table. If set to
812 false, OpenFlow connections to the controller will initially have all
813 asynchronous messages disabled, overriding normal OpenFlow behavior.
814 - ofproto-provider interface:
815 - "struct rule" has a new member "used" that ofproto implementations
816 should maintain by updating with ofproto_rule_update_used().

1067 in old Linux versions. (This feature is deprecated. When
1068 broken device drivers are no longer in widespread use, we will
1069 delete this feature.) See ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5) for more
1070 information.
1071 - OpenFlow:
1072 - Added ability to match on IPv6 flow label through NXM.
1073 - Added ability to match on ECN bits in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM.
1074 - Added ability to match on TTL in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM.
1075 - Added ability to modify ECN bits in IPv4.
1076 - Added ability to modify TTL in IPv4.
1077 - ovs-vswitchd:
1078 - Don't require the "normal" action to use mirrors. Traffic will
1079 now be properly mirrored for any flows, regardless of their
1080 actions.
1081 - Track packet and byte statistics sent on mirrors.

1106 information about all interfaces with CFM enabled.
1107 - If no argument is provided for "lacp/show", displays detailed
1108 information about all ports with LACP enabled.
1109 - ovs-vswitchd:
1110 - The software switch now supports 255 OpenFlow tables, instead
1111 of just one. By default, only table 0 is consulted, but the
1112 new NXAST_RESUBMIT_TABLE action can look up in additional
1113 tables. Tables 128 and above are reserved for use by the
1114 switch itself; please use only tables 0 through 127.
1115 - Add support for 802.1D spanning tree (STP).
1116 - Fragment handling extensions:
1117 - New OFPC_FRAG_NX_MATCH fragment handling mode, in which L4
1118 fields are made available for matching in fragments with
1119 offset 0.
1120 - New NXM_NX_IP_FRAG match field for matching IP fragments (usable
1121 via "ip_frag" in ovs-ofctl).
1122 - New ovs-ofctl "get-frags" and "set-frags" commands to get and set
1123 fragment handling policy.
1124 - CAPWAP tunneling now supports an extension to transport a 64-key. By
1125 default it remains compatible with the old version and other
1126 standards-based implementations.
1127 - Flow setups are now processed in a round-robin manner across ports
1128 to prevent any single client from monopolizing the CPU and conducting
1129 a denial of service attack.
1130 - Added support for native VLAN tagging. A new "vlan_mode"
1131 parameter can be set for "port". Possible values: "access",
1132 "trunk", "native-tagged" and "native-untagged".
1133 - test-openflowd has been removed. Please use ovs-vswitchd instead.

1160 tests directory. Its presence confused too many users. Please
1161 use ovs-vswitchd instead.
1162 - New ovs-benchmark utility to test flow setup performance.
1163 - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility
1164 "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously,
1165 "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at
1166 level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged
1167 at "emer" level.
1168 - "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and
1169 --with-l26-source has been renamed --with-linux-source. The old
1170 names will be removed after the next release, so please update

1257 separate hash and wildcard tables. This better models the
1258 current implementation.
1259 - New experimental "note" action.
1260 - New "ofproto/trace" ovs-appctl command and associated utilities
1261 to ease debugging complex flow tables.
1262 - Database:
1263 - Schema documentation now includes an entity-relationship diagram.
1264 - The database is now garbage collected. In most tables,
1265 unreferenced rows will be deleted automatically.
1266 - Many tables now include statistics updated periodically by
1267 ovs-vswitchd or ovsdb-server.
1268 - Every table now has an "external-ids" column for use by OVS
1269 integrators.
1270 - There is no default controller anymore. Each bridge must have its
1271 controller individually specified.
1272 - The "fail-mode" is now a property of a Bridge instead of a Controller.
1273 - New versioning and checksum features.
1274 - New Managers table and manager_options column in Open_vSwitch table
1275 for specifying managers. The old "managers" column in the
1276 Open_vSwitch table has been removed.
1277 - Many "name" columns are now immutable.
1278 - Feature removals:
1279 - Dropped support for XenServer pre-5.6.100.
1280 - Dropped support for Linux pre-2.6.18.
1281 - Dropped controller discovery support.
1282 - Dropped "ovs-ofctl status" and the OpenFlow extension that it used.
1283 Statistics reporting in the database is a rough equivalent.
1284 - Dropped the "corekeeper" package (now separate, at
1285 http://openvswitch.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=corekeeper).
1286 - Performance and scalability improvements
1287 - Bug fixes
