+       retries that can be made.
    - OpenFlow:
+     * All features required by OpenFlow 1.5 are now implemented, so
+       ovs-vswitchd now enables OpenFlow 1.5 by default (in addition to
+       OpenFlow 1.0 to 1.4).
      * Removed support for OpenFlow 1.6 (draft), which ONF abandoned.

      * New "ovs-appctl dpctl/ipf-get-status" command for userspace datapath
        conntrack fragmentation support.
+     * New action "check_pkt_len".

+     * 'ovs-appctl exit' now implies cleanup of non-internal ports in userspace
+       datapath regardless of '--cleanup' option. Use '--cleanup' to remove
+       internal ports too.
    - OVSDB:
      * OVSDB clients can now resynchronize with clustered servers much more
        quickly after a brief disconnection, saving bandwidth and CPU time.

        protocol extension.

+       OVN-NB schema. New "ovn-nbctl" commands to add/delete/list PBR policies.
