+ - Dropped support for Python older than version 2.7. As a consequence,
+ using Open vSwitch 2.5 or later on XenServer 6.5 or earlier (which
+ have Python 2.4) requires first installing Python 2.7.
+ - OpenFlow:
+ * Group chaining (where one OpenFlow group triggers another) is
+ now supported.
+ * OpenFlow 1.4+ "importance" is now considered for flow eviction.
+ * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPTC_EVICTION is now implemented.
+ * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPTC_VACANCY_EVENTS is now implemented.
+ * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPMP_TABLE_DESC is now implemented.
+ * Allow modifying the ICMPv4/ICMPv6 type and code fields.
+ - ovs-ofctl:
+ * New "out_group" keyword for OpenFlow 1.1+ matching on output group.
+ - Support for matching/generating options as well as the OAM bit with
+ Geneve tunnels.
+ - Support Multicast Listener Discovery (MLDv1 and MLDv2).
+ - Add 'symmetric_l3l4' and 'symmetric_l3l4+udp' hash functions.
+ - sFlow agent now reports tunnel and MPLS structures.
+ - Added OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG and OFPT_GET_ASYNC_CONFIG
+ that allows controllers to have more precise control over OpenFlow1.4
+ asynchronous messages.
+ - New 'check-system-userspace', 'check-kmod' and 'check-kernel' Makefile
+ targets to run a new system testsuite. These tests can be run inside
+ a Vagrant box. See INSTALL.md for details
+ - Dropped support for GRE64 tunnel.
+ - Mark --syslog-target argument as deprecated. It will be removed in
+ the next OVS release.
+ - Added --user option to all daemons
+ - Add support for connection tracking through the new "ct" action
+ and "ct_state"/"ct_zone"/"ct_mark"/"ct_label" match fields. Only
+ available on Linux kernels with the connection tracking module loaded.
+ - Add experimental version of OVN. OVN, the Open Virtual Network, is a
+ system to support virtual network abstraction. OVN complements the
+ existing capabilities of OVS to add native support for virtual network
+ abstractions, such as virtual L2 and L3 overlays and security groups.
