1 | Post-v2.7.0 |
2 | --------------------- | |
50f96b10 BP |
3 | - ovs-ofctl can now accept and display port names in place of numbers. By |
4 | default it always accepts names and in interactive use it displays them; | |
5 | use --names or --no-names to override. See ovs-ofctl(8) for details. | |
e2218eee JP |
6 | - Tunnels: |
7 | * Added support to set packet mark for tunnel endpoint using | |
8 | `egress_pkt_mark` OVSDB option. | |
921c370a EG |
9 | * When using Linux kernel datapath tunnels may be created using rtnetlink. |
10 | This will allow us to take advantage of new tunnel features without | |
11 | having to make changes to the vport modules. | |
4c30b246 CL |
12 | - EMC insertion probability is reduced to 1% and is configurable via |
13 | the new 'other_config:emc-insert-inv-prob' option. | |
736ca516 IM |
14 | - DPDK: |
15 | * DPDK log messages redirected to OVS logging subsystem. | |
16 | Log level can be changed in a usual OVS way using | |
17 | 'ovs-appctl vlog' commands for 'dpdk' module. Lower bound | |
18 | still can be configured via extra arguments for DPDK EAL. | |
0b4f83e2 PS |
19 | - IPFIX now provides additional counters: |
20 | * Total counters since metering process startup. | |
21 | * Per-flow TCP flag counters. | |
fed8962a EG |
22 | - New support for multiple VLANs (802.1ad or "QinQ"), including a new |
23 | "dot1q-tunnel" port VLAN mode. | |
4e3000a0 BP |
24 | - In ovn-vsctl and vtep-ctl, record UUIDs in commands may now be |
25 | abbreviated to 4 hex digits. | |
3346c985 DB |
26 | - Userspace Datapath: |
27 | * Added NAT support for userspace datapath. | |

4e3000a0 BP |
37 | * In ovn-nbctl and ovn-sbctl, record UUIDs in commands may now be |
38 | abbreviated to 4 hex digits. | |
c2f4c39b BP |
39 | * "ovn-sbctl lflow-list" can now print OpenFlow flows that correspond |
40 | to logical flows. | |

5f206eb6 | 44 | - Add the command 'ovs-appctl stp/show' (see ovs-vswitchd(8)). |
417cfdb6 | 45 | - OpenFlow: |
8d348579 BP |
46 | * All features required by OpenFlow 1.4 are now implemented, so |
47 | ovs-vswitchd now enables OpenFlow 1.4 by default (in addition to | |
48 | OpenFlow 1.0 to 1.3). | |
2f2b904f | 49 | * Increased support for OpenFlow 1.6 (draft). |
417cfdb6 | 50 | * Bundles now support hashing by just nw_src or nw_dst. |
51 | * The "learn" action now supports a "limit" option (see ovs-ofctl(8)). | |

e2218eee | 64 | |
a9c838b2 | 65 | v2.7.0 - 21 Feb 2017 |
92690eae | 66 | --------------------- |
e18a1d08 ER |
67 | - Utilities and daemons that support SSL now allow protocols and |
68 | ciphers to be configured with --ssl-protocols and --ssl-ciphers. | |
a6095f81 BS |
69 | - OVN: |
70 | * QoS is now implemented via egress shaping rather than ingress policing. | |
1a03fc7d | 71 | * DSCP marking is now supported, via the new northbound QoS table. |
6374d518 | 72 | * IPAM now supports fixed MAC addresses. |
440a9f4b | 73 | * Support for source IP address based routing. |
d444a914 BP |
74 | * ovn-trace: |
75 | - New --ovs option to also print OpenFlow flows. | |
76 | - put_dhcp_opts and put_dhcp_optsv6 actions may now be traced. | |
821302cf | 77 | * Support for managing SSL and remote connection configuration in |
10471820 | 78 | northbound and southbound databases. |
84d0ca5d LR |
79 | * TCP connections to northbound and southbound databases are no |
80 | longer enabled by default and must be explicitly configured. | |
81 | See documentation for ovn-sbctl/ovn-nbctl "set-connection" | |
82 | command or the ovn-ctl "--db-sb-create-insecure-remote" and | |
83 | "--db-nb-create-insecure-remote" command-line options for | |
84 | information regarding remote connection configuration. | |
714651c7 JP |
85 | * New appctl "inject-pkt" command in ovn-controller that allows |
86 | packets to be injected into the connected OVS instance. | |
878b54d7 MS |
87 | * Distributed logical routers may now be connected directly to |
88 | logical switches with localnet ports, by specifying a | |
89 | "redirect-chassis" on the distributed gateway port of the | |
90 | logical router. NAT rules may be specified directly on the | |
91 | distributed logical router, and are handled either centrally on | |
92 | the "redirect-chassis", or in many cases are handled locally on | |
93 | the hypervisor where the corresponding logical port resides. | |
94 | Gratuitous ARP for NAT addresses on a distributed logical | |
95 | router is not yet supported, but will be added in a future | |
96 | version. | |
a027899e JR |
97 | - Fixed regression in table stats maintenance introduced in OVS |
98 | 2.3.0, wherein the number of OpenFlow table hits and misses was | |
99 | not accurate. | |
51bb26fa | 100 | - OpenFlow: |
6dd3c787 | 101 | * OFPT_PACKET_OUT messages are now supported in bundles. |
53cc166a JR |
102 | * A new "selection_method=dp_hash" type for OpenFlow select group |
103 | bucket selection that uses the datapath computed 5-tuple hash | |
104 | without making datapath flows match the 5-tuple fields, which | |
105 | is useful for more efficient load balancing, for example. This | |
106 | uses the Netronome extension to OpenFlow 1.5+ that allows | |
107 | control over the OpenFlow select groups selection method. See | |
108 | "selection_method" and related options in ovs-ofctl(8) for | |
109 | details. | |
4930ea56 | 110 | * The "sample" action now supports "ingress" and "egress" options. |
40c7b2fc | 111 | * The "ct" action now supports the TFTP ALG where support is available. |
72fe7578 | 112 | * New actions "clone" and "ct_clear". |
798a1033 | 113 | * The "meter" action is now supported in the userspace datapath. |
6dd3c787 JR |
114 | - ovs-ofctl: |
115 | * 'bundle' command now supports packet-out messages. | |
116 | * New syntax for 'ovs-ofctl packet-out' command, which uses the | |
117 | same string parser as the 'bundle' command. The old 'packet-out' | |
118 | syntax is deprecated and will be removed in a later OVS | |
119 | release. | |
120 | * New unixctl "ofctl/packet-out" command, which can be used to | |
121 | instruct a flow monitor to issue OpenFlow packet-out messages. | |
9c1a1182 LR |
122 | - ovsdb-server: |
123 | * Remote connections can now be made read-only (see ovsdb-server(1)). | |
8d8ab6c2 JG |
124 | - Tunnels: |
125 | * TLV mappings for protocols such as Geneve are now segregated on | |
126 | a per-OpenFlow bridge basis rather than globally. (The interface | |
127 | has not changed.) | |
2b02d770 | 128 | * Removed support for IPsec tunnels. |
08484bae CL |
129 | - DPDK: |
130 | * New option 'n_rxq_desc' and 'n_txq_desc' fields for DPDK interfaces | |
131 | which set the number of rx and tx descriptors to use for the given port. | |
04de404e | 132 | * Support for DPDK v16.11. |
1a2bb118 | 133 | * Support for rx checksum offload. Refer DPDK HOWTO for details. |
b8374d0d | 134 | * Port Hotplug is now supported. |
55e075e6 CL |
135 | * DPDK physical ports can now have arbitrary names. The PCI address of |
136 | the device must be set using the 'dpdk-devargs' option. Compatibility | |
137 | with the old dpdk<portid> naming scheme is broken, and as such a | |
138 | device will not be available for use until a valid dpdk-devargs is | |
139 | specified. | |
69876ed7 | 140 | * Virtual DPDK Poll Mode Driver (vdev PMD) support. |
602e24ee | 141 | * Removed experimental tag. |
5771f476 FL |
142 | - Fedora packaging: |
143 | * A package upgrade does not automatically restart OVS service. | |
58d636ee BK |
144 | - ovs-vswitchd/ovs-vsctl: |
145 | * Ports now have a "protected" flag. Protected ports can not forward | |
146 | frames to other protected ports. Unprotected ports can receive and | |
147 | forward frames to protected and other unprotected ports. | |
1ab39058 LR |
148 | - ovs-vsctl, ovn-nbctl, ovn-sbctl, vtep-ctl: |
149 | * Database commands now accept integer ranges, e.g. "set port | |
150 | eth0 trunks=1-10" to enable trunking VLANs 1 to 10. | |
92690eae | 151 | |
62f0430e | 152 | v2.6.0 - 27 Sep 2016 |
ca32170a | 153 | --------------------- |
e921fc3f JP |
154 | - First supported release of OVN. See ovn-architecture(7) for more |
155 | details. | |
92f8d65b | 156 | - ovsdb-server: |
c383f3bf LS |
157 | * New "monitor_cond" "monitor_cond_update" and "update2" extensions to |
158 | RFC 7047. | |
56085be5 | 159 | - OpenFlow: |
8225b3b7 JR |
160 | * OpenFlow 1.3+ bundles now expire after 10 seconds since the |
161 | last time the bundle was either opened, modified, or closed. | |
fe996936 JR |
162 | * OpenFlow 1.3 Extension 230, adding OpenFlow Bundles support, is |
163 | now implemented. | |
25070e04 JR |
164 | * OpenFlow 1.3+ bundles are now supported for group mods as well as |
165 | flow mods and port mods. Both 'atomic' and 'ordered' bundle | |
166 | flags are supported for group mods as well as flow mods. | |
5fc0ad0a JR |
167 | * Internal OpenFlow rule representation for load and set-field |
168 | actions is now much more memory efficient. For a complex flow | |
169 | table this can reduce rule memory consumption by 40%. | |
170 | * Bundles are now much more memory efficient than in OVS 2.5. | |
171 | Together with memory efficiency improvements in OpenFlow rule | |
172 | representation, the peak OVS resident memory use during a | |
173 | bundle commit for large complex set of flow mods can be only | |
174 | 25% of that in OVS 2.5 (4x lower). | |
56085be5 | 175 | * OpenFlow 1.1+ OFPT_QUEUE_GET_CONFIG_REQUEST now supports OFPP_ANY. |
e016fb63 | 176 | * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPMP_QUEUE_DESC is now supported. |
6c6eedc5 | 177 | * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPT_TABLE_STATUS is now supported. |
bdcad671 | 178 | * New property-based packet-in message format NXT_PACKET_IN2 with support |
77ab5fd2 BP |
179 | for arbitrary user-provided data and for serializing flow table |
180 | traversal into a continuation for later resumption. | |
181 | * New extension message NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG2 to allow OpenFlow 1.4-like | |
182 | control over asynchronous messages in earlier versions of OpenFlow. | |
bef3f465 | 183 | * New OpenFlow extension NXM_NX_MPLS_TTL to provide access to MPLS TTL. |
aaca4fe0 WT |
184 | * New output option, output(port=N,max_len=M), to allow truncating a |
185 | packet to size M bytes when outputting to port N. | |
88b87a36 JS |
186 | * New command OFPGC_ADD_OR_MOD for OFPT_GROUP_MOD message that adds a |
187 | new group or modifies an existing groups | |
54b78c95 JR |
188 | * The optional OpenFlow packet buffering feature is deprecated in |
189 | this release, and will be removed in the next OVS release | |
190 | (2.7). After the change OVS always sends the 'buffer_id' as | |
191 | 0xffffffff in packet-in messages and will send an error | |
192 | response if any other value of this field is included in | |
193 | packet-out and flow mod sent by a controller. Controllers are | |
194 | already expected to work properly in cases where the switch can | |
195 | not buffer packets, so this change should not affect existing | |
196 | users. | |
2a7c4805 | 197 | * New OpenFlow extension NXT_CT_FLUSH_ZONE to flush conntrack zones. |
4b684612 | 198 | - Improved OpenFlow version compatibility for actions: |
88c8ca26 | 199 | * New OpenFlow extension to support the "group" action in OpenFlow 1.0. |
0f2aaee9 | 200 | * OpenFlow 1.0 "enqueue" action now properly translated to OpenFlow 1.1+. |
56a91749 BP |
201 | * OpenFlow 1.1 "mod_nw_ecn" and OpenFlow 1.1+ "mod_nw_ttl" actions now |
202 | properly translated to OpenFlow 1.0. | |
e016fb63 BP |
203 | - ovs-ofctl: |
204 | * queue-get-config command now allows a queue ID to be specified. | |
25070e04 JR |
205 | * '--bundle' option can now be used with OpenFlow 1.3 and with group mods. |
206 | * New "bundle" command allows executing a mixture of flow and group mods | |
207 | as a single atomic transaction. | |
8743fa8c | 208 | * New option "--color" to produce colorized output for some commands. |
88b87a36 | 209 | * New option '--may-create' to use OFPGC_ADD_OR_MOD in mod-group command. |
c97320eb WZ |
210 | - IPFIX: |
211 | * New "sampling_port" option for "sample" action to allow sampling | |
212 | ingress and egress tunnel metadata with IPFIX. | |
213 | * New ovs-ofctl commands "dump-ipfix-bridge" and "dump-ipfix-flow" to | |
214 | dump bridge IPFIX statistics and flow based IPFIX statistics. | |
215 | * New setting other-config:virtual_obs_id to add an arbitrary string | |
216 | to IPFIX records. | |
6cf888b8 | 217 | - Linux: |
fe996936 JR |
218 | * OVS Linux datapath now implements Conntrack NAT action with all |
219 | supported Linux kernels. | |
220 | * Support for truncate action. | |
6cf888b8 BS |
221 | * New QoS type "linux-noop" that prevents Open vSwitch from trying to |
222 | manage QoS for a given port (useful when other software manages QoS). | |
a14b8947 IM |
223 | - DPDK: |
224 | * New option "n_rxq" for PMD interfaces. | |
225 | Old 'other_config:n-dpdk-rxqs' is no longer supported. | |
81acebda IM |
226 | Not supported by vHost interfaces. For them number of rx and tx queues |
227 | is applied from connected virtio device. | |
3eb67853 IM |
228 | * New 'other_config:pmd-rxq-affinity' field for PMD interfaces, that |
229 | allows to pin port's rx queues to desired cores. | |
ce179f11 IM |
230 | * New appctl command 'dpif-netdev/pmd-rxq-show' to check the port/rxq |
231 | assignment. | |
232 | * Type of log messages from PMD threads changed from INFO to DBG. | |
0bf765f7 | 233 | * QoS functionality with sample egress-policer implementation. |
bab69409 AC |
234 | * The mechanism for configuring DPDK has changed to use database |
235 | * Sensible defaults have been introduced for many of the required | |
236 | configuration options | |
237 | * DB entries have been added for many of the DPDK EAL command line | |
eac84432 AC |
238 | arguments. Additional arguments can be passed via the dpdk-extra |
239 | entry. | |
9509913a | 240 | * Add ingress policing functionality. |
db8f13b0 CL |
241 | * PMD threads servicing vHost User ports can now come from the NUMA |
242 | node that device memory is located on if CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_VHOST_NUMA | |
243 | is enabled in DPDK. | |
5cf3edb3 DDP |
244 | * Basic connection tracking for the userspace datapath (no ALG, |
245 | fragmentation or NAT support yet) | |
0a0f39df | 246 | * Support for DPDK 16.07 |
4b88d678 | 247 | * Optional support for DPDK pdump enabled. |
0072e931 | 248 | * Jumbo frame support |

278 | watch with tcpdump | |
81d2f75c AA |
279 | - Introduce --no-self-confinement flag that allows daemons to work with |
280 | sockets outside their run directory. | |
29dd784d BP |
281 | - ovs-pki: Changed message digest algorithm from SHA-1 to SHA-512 because |
282 | SHA-1 is no longer secure and some operating systems have started to | |
283 | disable it in OpenSSL. | |
56abcf49 | 284 | - Add 'mtu_request' column to the Interface table. It can be used to |
3a414a0a | 285 | configure the MTU of the ports. |
29dd784d | 286 | |
c0fa821f JS |
287 | Known issues: |
288 | - Using openvswitch module in conjunction with upstream Linux tunnels: | |
289 | * When using the openvswitch module distributed with OVS against kernel | |
290 | versions 4.4 to 4.6, the openvswitch module cannot be loaded or used at | |
291 | the same time as "ip_gre". | |
292 | - Conntrack FTP ALGs: When using the openvswitch module distributed with | |
293 | OVS, particular Linux distribution kernels versions may provide diminished | |
294 | functionality. This typically affects active FTP data connections when | |
295 | using "actions=ct(alg=ftp),..." in flow tables. Specifically: | |
296 | * Centos 7.1 kernels (3.10.0-2xx) kernels are unable to correctly set | |
297 | up expectations for FTP data connections in multiple zones, | |
298 | eg "actions=ct(zone=1,alg=ftp),ct(zone=2,alg=ftp),...". Executing the | |
299 | "ct" action for subsequent data connections may fail to determine that | |
300 | the data connection is "related" to an existing connection. | |
301 | * Centos 7.2 kernels (3.10.0-3xx) kernels may not establish FTP ALG state | |
302 | correctly for NATed connections. As a result, flows that perform NAT, | |
303 | eg "actions=ct(nat,ftp=alg,table=1),..." may fail to NAT the packet, | |
304 | and will populate the "ct_state=inv" bit in the flow. | |

1c0383a9 | 307 | v2.5.0 - 26 Feb 2016 |
c4c7e593 | 308 | --------------------- |
e23812fc BP |
309 | - Dropped support for Python older than version 2.7. As a consequence, |
310 | using Open vSwitch 2.5 or later on XenServer 6.5 or earlier (which | |
311 | have Python 2.4) requires first installing Python 2.7. | |
0eb48fe1 BP |
312 | - OpenFlow: |
313 | * Group chaining (where one OpenFlow group triggers another) is | |
314 | now supported. | |
f70b94de | 315 | * OpenFlow 1.4+ "importance" is now considered for flow eviction. |
82c22d34 | 316 | * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPTC_EVICTION is now implemented. |

320 | * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG and OFPT_GET_ASYNC_CONFIG are |
321 | now implemented. | |
6d5d1f3b BP |
322 | - ovs-ofctl: |
323 | * New "out_group" keyword for OpenFlow 1.1+ matching on output group. | |
c61f4bc1 BP |
324 | - Tunnels: |
325 | * Geneve tunnels can now match and set options and the OAM bit. | |
326 | * The nonstandard GRE64 tunnel extension has been dropped. | |
06994f87 | 327 | - Support Multicast Listener Discovery (MLDv1 and MLDv2). |
4249b547 | 328 | - Add 'symmetric_l3l4' and 'symmetric_l3l4+udp' hash functions. |
7321bda3 | 329 | - sFlow agent now reports tunnel and MPLS structures. |
548f9fe7 DDP |
330 | - New 'check-system-userspace', 'check-kmod' and 'check-kernel' Makefile |
331 | targets to run a new system testsuite. These tests can be run inside | |
332 | a Vagrant box. See INSTALL.md for details | |
195360dc AA |
333 | - Mark --syslog-target argument as deprecated. It will be removed in |
334 | the next OVS release. | |
e91b927d | 335 | - Added --user option to all daemons |
07659514 | 336 | - Add support for connection tracking through the new "ct" action |
9daf2348 JS |
337 | and "ct_state"/"ct_zone"/"ct_mark"/"ct_label" match fields. Only |
338 | available on Linux kernels with the connection tracking module loaded. | |
a2e61be6 RB |
339 | - Add experimental version of OVN. OVN, the Open Virtual Network, is a |
340 | system to support virtual network abstraction. OVN complements the | |
341 | existing capabilities of OVS to add native support for virtual network | |
342 | abstractions, such as virtual L2 and L3 overlays and security groups. | |
f6bf8880 PM |
343 | - RHEL packaging: |
344 | * DPDK ports may now be created via network scripts (see README.RHEL). | |

346 | * Requires DPDK 2.2 | |
347 | * Added multiqueue support to vhost-user | |
db6e1383 | 348 | * Note: QEMU 2.5+ required for multiqueue support |
c4c7e593 | 349 | |
2fac5fed | 350 | v2.4.0 - 20 Aug 2015 |
2c7ea589 | 351 | --------------------- |
39c94593 JR |
352 | - Flow table modifications are now atomic, meaning that each packet |
353 | now sees a coherent version of the OpenFlow pipeline. For | |
354 | example, if a controller removes all flows with a single OpenFlow | |
355 | "flow_mod", no packet sees an intermediate version of the OpenFlow | |
356 | pipeline where only some of the flows have been deleted. | |
db5076ee | 357 | - Added support for SFQ, FQ_CoDel and CoDel qdiscs. |
557570fa AW |
358 | - Add bash command-line completion support for ovs-vsctl Please check |
359 | utilities/ovs-command-compgen.INSTALL.md for how to use. | |
9d078ec2 BP |
360 | - The MAC learning feature now includes per-port fairness to mitigate |
361 | MAC flooding attacks. | |
18080541 BP |
362 | - New support for a "conjunctive match" OpenFlow extension, which |
363 | allows constructing OpenFlow matches of the form "field1 in | |
364 | {a,b,c...} AND field2 in {d,e,f...}" and generalizations. For details, | |
cc23805c | 365 | see documentation for the "conjunction" action in ovs-ofctl(8). |
423ede18 AW |
366 | - Add bash command-line completion support for ovs-appctl/ovs-dpctl/ |
367 | ovs-ofctl/ovsdb-tool commands. Please check | |
368 | utilities/ovs-command-compgen.INSTALL.md for how to use. | |
35f48b8b BP |
369 | - The "learn" action supports a new flag "delete_learned" that causes |
370 | the learned flows to be deleted when the flow with the "learn" action | |
371 | is deleted. | |
c1fc1411 JG |
372 | - Basic support for the Geneve tunneling protocol. It is not yet |
373 | possible to generate or match options. This is planned for a future | |
374 | release. The protocol is documented at | |
375 | http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gross-geneve-00 | |
a413195e | 376 | - The OVS database now reports controller rate limiting statistics. |
50b9699f | 377 | - sflow now exports information about LACP-based bonds, port names, and |
3d2912f2 | 378 | OpenFlow port numbers, as well as datapath performance counters. |
fceef209 DDP |
379 | - ovs-dpctl functionality is now available for datapaths integrated |
380 | into ovs-vswitchd, via ovs-appctl. Some existing ovs-appctl | |
381 | commands are now redundant and will be removed in a future | |
382 | release. See ovs-vswitchd(8) for details. | |
79fe0f46 | 383 | - OpenFlow: |
1c38055d JR |
384 | * OpenFlow 1.4 bundles are now supported for flow mods and port |
385 | mods. For flow mods, both 'atomic' and 'ordered' bundle flags | |
386 | are trivially supported, as all bundled messages are executed | |
387 | in the order they were added and all flow table modifications | |
388 | are now atomic to the datapath. Port mods may not appear in | |
389 | atomic bundles, as port status modifications are not atomic. | |
e60e935b | 390 | * IPv6 flow label and neighbor discovery fields are now modifiable. |
d3cb080e BP |
391 | * OpenFlow 1.5 extended registers are now supported. |
392 | * The OpenFlow 1.5 actset_output field is now supported. | |
393 | * OpenFlow 1.5 Copy-Field action is now supported. | |
394 | * OpenFlow 1.5 masked Set-Field action is now supported. | |
3c4e10fb | 395 | * OpenFlow 1.3+ table features requests are now supported (read-only). |
1b0ee636 | 396 | * Nicira extension "move" actions may now be included in action sets. |
2e34a6a3 SS |
397 | * "resubmit" actions may now be included in action sets. The resubmit |
398 | is executed last, and only if the action set has no "output" or "group" | |
399 | action. | |
ca26eb44 | 400 | * OpenFlow 1.4+ flow "importance" is now maintained in the flow table. |
0c4b9393 SH |
401 | * A new Netronome extension to OpenFlow 1.5+ allows control over the |
402 | fields hashed for OpenFlow select groups. See "selection_method" and | |
403 | related options in ovs-ofctl(8) for details. | |
db5076ee JR |
404 | - ovs-ofctl has a new '--bundle' option that makes the flow mod commands |
405 | ('add-flow', 'add-flows', 'mod-flows', 'del-flows', and 'replace-flows') | |
406 | use an OpenFlow 1.4 bundle to operate the modifications as a single | |
39c94593 JR |
407 | atomic transaction. If any of the flow mods in a transaction fail, none |
408 | of them are executed. All flow mods in a bundle appear to datapath | |
409 | lookups simultaneously. | |
db5076ee JR |
410 | - ovs-ofctl 'add-flow' and 'add-flows' commands now accept arbitrary flow |
411 | mods as an input by allowing the flow specification to start with an | |
412 | explicit 'add', 'modify', 'modify_strict', 'delete', or 'delete_strict' | |
413 | keyword. A missing keyword is treated as 'add', so this is fully | |
414 | backwards compatible. With the new '--bundle' option all the flow mods | |
39c94593 | 415 | are executed as a single atomic transaction using an OpenFlow 1.4 bundle. |
4a1f9610 | 416 | - ovs-pki: Changed message digest algorithm from MD5 to SHA-1 because |
9ff33ca7 BP |
417 | MD5 is no longer secure and some operating systems have started to disable |
418 | it in OpenSSL. | |
09e25603 TW |
419 | - ovsdb-server: New OVSDB protocol extension allows inequality tests on |
420 | "optional scalar" columns. See ovsdb-server(1) for details. | |
ff495b63 BP |
421 | - ovs-vsctl now permits immutable columns in a new row to be modified in |
422 | the same transaction that creates the row. | |
0bc1b46a BP |
423 | - test-controller has been renamed ovs-testcontroller at request of users |
424 | who find it useful for testing basic OpenFlow setups. It is still not | |
425 | a necessary or desirable part of most Open vSwitch deployments. | |
cccf7e9d | 426 | - Support for travis-ci.org based continuous integration builds has been |
542cc9bb | 427 | added. Build failures are reported to build@openvswitch.org. See INSTALL.md |
cccf7e9d | 428 | file for additional details. |
bbda3a2f DV |
429 | - Support for the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1D-2004). |
430 | The implementation has been tested successfully against the Ixia Automated | |
431 | Network Validation Library (ANVL). | |
2f9dd77f | 432 | - Stats are no longer updated on fake bond interface. |
3e5aeeb5 | 433 | - Keep active bond slave selection across OVS restart. |
ec8f0f0c | 434 | - A simple wrapper script, 'ovs-docker', to integrate OVS with Docker |
62dbc5bd GS |
435 | containers. If and when there is a native integration of Open vSwitch |
436 | with Docker, the wrapper script will be retired. | |
e5a1caee JG |
437 | - Added support for DPDK Tunneling. VXLAN, GRE, and Geneve are supported |
438 | protocols. This is generic tunneling mechanism for userspace datapath. | |
e3102e42 | 439 | - Support for multicast snooping (IGMPv1, IGMPv2 and IGMPv3) |
3afcde43 | 440 | - Support for Linux kernels up to 4.0.x |
d5460484 GS |
441 | - The documentation now use the term 'destination' to mean one of syslog, |
442 | console or file for vlog logging instead of the previously used term | |
443 | 'facility'. | |
ac6073e3 | 444 | - Support for VXLAN Group Policy extension |
99eef98b DF |
445 | - Initial support for the IETF Auto-Attach SPBM draft standard. This |
446 | contains rudimentary support for the LLDP protocol as needed for | |
447 | Auto-Attach. | |
d4763d1d JP |
448 | - The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports are now the IANA-assigned |
449 | numbers. OpenFlow is 6653 and OVSDB is 6640. | |
58397e6c | 450 | - Support for DPDK vHost. |
4752cc0c | 451 | - Support for outer UDP checksums in Geneve and VXLAN. |
d0d986a5 TG |
452 | - The kernel vports with dependencies are no longer part of the overall |
453 | openvswitch.ko but built and loaded automatically as individual kernel | |
454 | modules (vport-*.ko). | |
4237026e | 455 | - Support for STT tunneling. |
6901639b BP |
456 | - ovs-sim: New developer tool for simulating multiple OVS instances. |
457 | See ovs-sim(1) for more information. | |
fe089c0d AA |
458 | - Support to configure method (--syslog-method argument) that determines |
459 | how daemons will talk with syslog. | |
532e1463 AA |
460 | - Support for "ovs-appctl vlog/list-pattern" command that lets to query |
461 | logging message format for each destination. | |
2c7ea589 JP |
462 | |
463 | ||
e13440fc | 464 | v2.3.0 - 14 Aug 2014 |
c5cf1059 | 465 | --------------------- |
6dc53744 BP |
466 | - OpenFlow 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 are now enabled by default in |
467 | ovs-vswitchd. | |
69d6040e JR |
468 | - Linux kernel datapath now has an exact match cache optimizing the |
469 | flow matching process. | |
470 | - Datapath flows now have partially wildcarded tranport port field | |
471 | matches. This reduces userspace upcalls, but increases the | |
472 | number of different masks in the datapath. The kernel datapath | |
473 | exact match cache removes the overhead of matching the incoming | |
474 | packets with the larger number of masks, but when paired with an | |
475 | older kernel module, some workloads may perform worse with the | |
476 | new userspace. | |
0877a018 | 477 | - Compatibility with autoconf 2.63 (previously >=2.64) |
c5cf1059 | 478 | |
012c3a52 | 479 | v2.2.0 - Internal Release |
bff46ebb | 480 | --------------------- |
1839c356 FL |
481 | - Internal ports are no longer brought up by default, because it |
482 | should be an administrator task to bring up devices as they are | |
483 | configured properly. | |
c3ccfe98 AZ |
484 | - ovs-vsctl now reports when ovs-vswitchd fails to create a new port or |
485 | bridge. | |
9500f505 TG |
486 | - Port creation and configuration errors are now stored in a new error |
487 | column of the Interface table and included in 'ovs-vsctl show'. | |
7868fbc6 BP |
488 | - The "ovsdbmonitor" graphical tool has been removed, because it was |
489 | poorly maintained and not widely used. | |
e3c7ed29 | 490 | - New "check-ryu" Makefile target for running Ryu tests for OpenFlow |
542cc9bb | 491 | controllers against Open vSwitch. See INSTALL.md for details. |
f51e8ccb | 492 | - Added IPFIX support for SCTP flows and templates for ICMPv4/v6 flows. |
0b114fa0 GS |
493 | - Upon the receipt of a SIGHUP signal, ovs-vswitchd no longer reopens its |
494 | log file (it will terminate instead). Please use 'ovs-appctl vlog/reopen' | |
495 | instead. | |
e2f3178f | 496 | - Support for Linux kernels up to 3.14. From Kernel 3.12 onwards OVS uses |
cb25142c | 497 | tunnel API for GRE and VXLAN. |
8a9562d2 | 498 | - Added DPDK support. |
a5ed8fe3 | 499 | - Added support for custom vlog patterns in Python |
f51e8ccb | 500 | |
bff46ebb | 501 | |
a3aabcd2 | 502 | v2.1.0 - 19 Mar 2014 |
b366c1f4 | 503 | --------------------- |
13751fd8 JR |
504 | - Address prefix tracking support for flow tables. New columns |
505 | "prefixes" in OVS-DB table "Flow_Table" controls which packet | |
506 | header fields are used for address prefix tracking. Prefix | |
507 | tracking allows the classifier to skip rules with longer than | |
508 | necessary prefixes, resulting in better wildcarding for datapath | |
509 | flows. Default configuration is to not use any fields for prefix | |
510 | tracking. However, if any flow tables contain both exact matches | |
511 | and masked matches for IP address fields, OVS performance may be | |
512 | increased by using this feature. | |
513 | * As of now, the fields for which prefix lookup can be enabled | |
514 | are: 'tun_id', 'tun_src', 'tun_dst', 'nw_src', 'nw_dst' (or | |
515 | aliases 'ip_src' and 'ip_dst'), 'ipv6_src', and 'ipv6_dst'. | |
516 | (Using this feature for 'tun_id' would only make sense if the | |
517 | tunnel IDs have prefix structure similar to IP addresses.) | |
518 | * There is a maximum number of fields that can be enabled for any | |
519 | one flow table. Currently this limit is 3. | |
520 | * Examples: | |
521 | $ ovs-vsctl set Bridge br0 flow_tables:0=@N1 -- \ | |
522 | --id=@N1 create Flow_Table name=table0 | |
523 | $ ovs-vsctl set Bridge br0 flow_tables:1=@N1 -- \ | |
524 | --id=@N1 create Flow_Table name=table1 | |
525 | $ ovs-vsctl set Flow_Table table0 prefixes=ip_dst,ip_src | |
526 | $ ovs-vsctl set Flow_Table table1 prefixes=[] | |
bcb8bde4 JR |
527 | - TCP flags matching: OVS now supports matching of TCP flags. This |
528 | has an adverse performance impact when using OVS userspace 1.10 | |
529 | or older (no megaflows support) together with the new OVS kernel | |
530 | module. It is recommended that the kernel and userspace modules | |
531 | both are upgraded at the same time. | |
36359150 JP |
532 | - The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports will change to |
533 | IANA-assigned numbers in a future release. Consider updating | |
534 | your installations to specify port numbers instead of using the | |
535 | defaults. | |
7fdb60a7 SH |
536 | - OpenFlow: |
537 | * The OpenFlow 1.1+ "Write-Actions" instruction is now supported. | |
484c8355 BP |
538 | * OVS limits the OpenFlow port numbers it assigns to port 32767 and |
539 | below, leaving port numbers above that range free for assignment | |
540 | by the controller. | |
4abb8608 BP |
541 | * ovs-vswitchd now honors changes to the "ofport_request" column |
542 | in the Interface table by changing the port's OpenFlow port | |
543 | number. | |
5dc6f8e1 | 544 | * The Open vSwitch software switch now supports OpenFlow groups. |
a5ae88ff AA |
545 | - ovs-vswitchd.conf.db.5 man page will contain graphviz/dot |
546 | diagram only if graphviz package was installed at the build time. | |
54af97ad | 547 | - Support for Linux kernels up to 3.11 |
847108dc AZ |
548 | - ovs-dpctl: |
549 | The "show" command also displays mega flow mask stats. | |
60e46251 BP |
550 | - ovs-ofctl: |
551 | * New command "ofp-parse-pcap" to dump OpenFlow from PCAP files. | |
1d5aaa61 BP |
552 | - ovs-controller has been renamed test-controller. It is no longer |
553 | packaged or installed by default, because too many users assumed | |
554 | incorrectly that ovs-controller was a necessary or desirable part | |
555 | of an Open vSwitch deployment. | |
afc9f547 | 556 | - Added vlog option to export to a UDP syslog sink. |
4227b221 BP |
557 | - ovsdb-client: |
558 | * The "monitor" command can now monitor all tables in a database, | |
559 | instead of being limited to a single table. | |
e79a6c83 EJ |
560 | - The flow-eviction-threshold has been replaced by the flow-limit which is a |
561 | hard limit on the number of flows in the datapath. It defaults to 200,000 | |
562 | flows. OVS automatically adjusts this number depending on network | |
563 | conditions. | |
e731d71b | 564 | - Added IPv6 support for active and passive socket communications. |
b366c1f4 JP |
565 | |
566 | ||
2fdb1879 | 567 | v2.0.0 - 15 Oct 2013 |
9f31efc7 | 568 | --------------------- |
d27705ea JP |
569 | - The ovs-vswitchd process is no longer single-threaded. Multiple |
570 | threads are now used to handle flow set up and asynchronous | |
571 | logging. | |
0ad90c84 | 572 | - OpenFlow: |
75fa58f8 BP |
573 | * Experimental support for OpenFlow 1.1 (in addition to 1.2 and |
574 | 1.3, which had experimental support in 1.10). | |
7395c052 NZ |
575 | * Experimental protocol support for OpenFlow 1.1+ groups. This |
576 | does not yet include an implementation in the Open vSwitch | |
577 | software switch. | |
578 | * Experimental protocol support for OpenFlow 1.2+ meters. This | |
579 | does not yet include an implementation in the Open vSwitch | |
580 | software switch. | |
0ad90c84 JR |
581 | * New support for matching outer source and destination IP address |
582 | of tunneled packets, for tunnel ports configured with the newly | |
e0eeeca5 | 583 | added "remote_ip=flow" and "local_ip=flow" options. |
ac923e91 JG |
584 | * Support for matching on metadata 'pkt_mark' for interacting with |
585 | other system components. On Linux this corresponds to the skb | |
586 | mark. | |
fe8a1798 | 587 | * Support matching, rewriting SCTP ports |
ea401d9a NM |
588 | - The Interface table in the database has a new "ifindex" column to |
589 | report the interface's OS-assigned ifindex. | |
81a114e5 BP |
590 | - New "check-oftest" Makefile target for running OFTest against Open |
591 | vSwitch. See README-OFTest for details. | |
380f49c4 | 592 | - The flow eviction threshold has been moved to the Open_vSwitch table. |
fb6de52c GS |
593 | - Database names are now mandatory when specifying ovsdb-server options |
594 | through database paths (e.g. Private key option with the database name | |
595 | should look like "--private-key=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,private_key"). | |
fef5244f | 596 | - Added ovs-dev.py, a utility script helpful for Open vSwitch developers. |
9b764edf | 597 | - Support for Linux kernels up to 3.10 |
1ac0e975 BP |
598 | - ovs-ofctl: |
599 | * New "ofp-parse" for printing OpenFlow messages read from a file. | |
7395c052 | 600 | * New commands for OpenFlow 1.1+ groups. |
978427a5 | 601 | - Added configurable flow caching support to IPFIX exporter. |
37418c86 | 602 | - Dropped support for Linux pre-2.6.32. |
7c018033 BP |
603 | - Log file timestamps and ovsdb commit timestamps are now reported |
604 | with millisecond resolution. (Previous versions only reported | |
605 | whole seconds.) | |
9f31efc7 JP |
606 | |
607 | ||
03c8f0b7 | 608 | v1.11.0 - 28 Aug 2013 |
d224e350 | 609 | --------------------- |
d445cc16 JP |
610 | - Support for megaflows, which allows wildcarding in the kernel (and |
611 | any dpif implementation that supports wildcards). Depending on | |
612 | the flow table and switch configuration, flow set up rates are | |
613 | close to the Linux bridge. | |
eeecce05 BP |
614 | - The "tutorial" directory contains a new tutorial for some advanced |
615 | Open vSwitch features. | |
df53d41c | 616 | - Stable bond mode has been removed. |
1bda9b9e | 617 | - The autopath action has been removed. |
a6ae068b LJ |
618 | - New support for the data encapsulation format of the LISP tunnel |
619 | protocol (RFC 6830). An external control plane or manual flow | |
620 | setup is required for EID-to-RLOC mapping. | |
b676167a | 621 | - OpenFlow: |
0f3f3c3d SH |
622 | * The "dec_mpls_ttl" and "set_mpls_ttl" actions from OpenFlow |
623 | 1.1 and later are now implemented. | |
bd85dac1 AZ |
624 | * New "stack" extension for use in actions, to push and pop from |
625 | NXM fields. | |
a7b07d4c BP |
626 | * The "load" and "set_field" actions can now modify the "in_port". (This |
627 | allows one to enable output to a flow's input port by setting the | |
628 | in_port to some unused value, such as OFPP_NONE.) | |
186afbfe BP |
629 | - ovs-dpctl: |
630 | * New debugging commands "add-flow", "mod-flow", "del-flow". | |
041e7168 | 631 | * "dump-flows" now has a -m option to increase output verbosity. |
bcd2633a JP |
632 | - In dpif-based bridges, cache action translations, which can improve |
633 | flow set up performance by 80% with a complicated flow table. | |
ca03aae0 | 634 | - New syslog format, prefixed with "ovs|", to be easier to filter. |
f9ee9dcb GS |
635 | - RHEL: Removes the default firewall rule that allowed GRE traffic to |
636 | pass through. Any users that relied on this automatic firewall hole | |
637 | will have to manually configure it. The ovs-ctl(8) manpage documents | |
638 | the "enable-protocol" command that can be used as an alternative. | |
90967e95 EJ |
639 | - New CFM demand mode which uses data traffic to indicate interface |
640 | liveness. | |
d224e350 | 641 | |
b82b19e9 | 642 | v1.10.0 - 01 May 2013 |
4191f435 | 643 | --------------------- |
685e46da BP |
644 | - Bridge compatibility support has been removed. Any uses that |
645 | rely on ovs-brcompatd will have to stick with Open vSwitch 1.9.x | |
646 | or adapt to native Open vSwitch support (e.g. use ovs-vsctl instead | |
647 | of brctl). | |
c4069512 | 648 | - The maximum size of the MAC learning table is now configurable. |
989fd548 JP |
649 | - With the Linux datapath, packets for new flows are now queued |
650 | separately on a per-port basis, so it should no longer be | |
651 | possible for a large number of new flows arriving on one port to | |
652 | prevent new flows from being processed on other ports. | |
43d18dc1 BP |
653 | - ovs-vsctl: |
654 | * Previously ovs-vsctl would retry connecting to the database forever, | |
655 | causing it to hang if ovsdb-server was not running. Now, ovs-vsctl | |
656 | only tries once by default (use --retry to try forever). This change | |
657 | means that you may want to remove uses of --timeout to avoid hangs | |
658 | in ovs-vsctl calls. | |
659 | * Many "ovs-vsctl" database commands now accept an --if-exists option. | |
660 | Please refer to the ovs-vsctl manpage for details. | |
e6024057 | 661 | - OpenFlow: |
d6123831 JP |
662 | - Experimental support for newer versions of OpenFlow. See |
663 | the "What versions of OpenFlow does Open vSwitch support?" | |
664 | question in the FAQ for more details. | |
e6024057 JP |
665 | - The OpenFlow "dp_desc" may now be configured by setting the |
666 | value of other-config:dp-desc in the Bridge table. | |
667 | - It is possible to request the OpenFlow port number with the | |
668 | "ofport_request" column in the Interface table. | |
c9accf5b BP |
669 | - The NXM flow_removed message now reports the OpenFlow table ID |
670 | from which the flow was removed. | |
3c23e920 JP |
671 | - Tunneling: |
672 | - New support for the VXLAN tunnel protocol (see the IETF draft here: | |
238bc978 | 673 | http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mahalingam-dutt-dcops-vxlan-03). |
3c23e920 JP |
674 | - Tunneling requires the version of the kernel module paired with |
675 | Open vSwitch 1.9.0 or later. | |
676 | - Inheritance of the Don't Fragment bit in IP tunnels (df_inherit) | |
677 | is no longer supported. | |
678 | - Path MTU discovery is no longer supported. | |
ccd989e0 JG |
679 | - CAPWAP tunneling support removed. |
680 | - Tunnels with multicast destination ports are no longer supported. | |
e6024057 JP |
681 | - ovs-dpctl: |
682 | - The "dump-flows" and "del-flows" no longer require an argument | |
683 | if only one datapath exists. | |
684 | - ovs-appctl: | |
685 | - New "vlog/disable-rate-limit" and "vlog/enable-rate-limit" | |
686 | commands available allow control over logging rate limits. | |
687 | - New "dpif/dump-dps", "dpif/show", and "dpif/dump-flows" command | |
688 | that mimic the equivalent ovs-dpctl commands. | |
e6024057 JP |
689 | - The ofproto library is now responsible for assigning OpenFlow port |
690 | numbers. An ofproto implementation should assign them when | |
691 | port_construct() is called. | |
692 | - All dpif-based bridges of a particular type share a common | |
693 | datapath called "ovs-<type>", e.g. "ovs-system". The ovs-dpctl | |
694 | commands will now return information on that shared datapath. To | |
695 | get the equivalent bridge-specific information, use the new | |
696 | "ovs-appctl dpif/*" commands. | |
bedde04c GS |
697 | - Backward-incompatible changes: |
698 | - Earlier Open vSwitch versions treated ANY as a wildcard in flow | |
699 | syntax. OpenFlow 1.1 adds a port named ANY, which introduces a | |
700 | conflict. ANY was rarely used in flow syntax, so we chose to | |
701 | retire that meaning of ANY in favor of the OpenFlow 1.1 meaning. | |
3c23e920 JP |
702 | - Patch ports no longer require kernel support, so they now work |
703 | with FreeBSD and the kernel module built into Linux 3.3 and later. | |
29089a54 | 704 | - New "sample" action. |
f07ee64c | 705 | |
e5f77cc3 | 706 | |
fdfe872d JP |
707 | v1.9.0 - 26 Feb 2013 |
708 | ------------------------ | |
72e8bf28 AA |
709 | - Datapath: |
710 | - Support for ipv6 set action. | |
711 | - SKB mark matching and setting. | |
64807dfb | 712 | - support for Linux kernels up to 3.8 |
f6eb6b20 GL |
713 | - FreeBSD is now a supported platform, thanks to code contributions from |
714 | Gaetano Catalli, Ed Maste, and Giuseppe Lettieri. | |
b592e726 | 715 | - ovs-bugtool: New --ovs option to report only OVS related information. |
781dee08 BP |
716 | - New %t and %T log escapes to identify the subprogram within a |
717 | cooperating group of processes or threads that emitted a log message. | |
718 | The default log patterns now include this information. | |
32455024 | 719 | - OpenFlow: |
e878338b SH |
720 | - Allow bitwise masking for SHA and THA fields in ARP, SLL and TLL |
721 | fields in IPv6 neighbor discovery messages, and IPv6 flow label. | |
4cceacb9 | 722 | - Adds support for writing to the metadata field for a flow. |
3c23e920 JP |
723 | - Tunneling: |
724 | - The tunneling code no longer assumes input and output keys are | |
725 | symmetric. If they are not, PMTUD needs to be disabled for | |
726 | tunneling to work. Note this only applies to flow-based keys. | |
727 | - New support for a nonstandard form of GRE that supports a 64-bit key. | |
728 | - Tunnel Path MTU Discovery default value was set to 'disabled'. | |
729 | This feature is deprecated and will be removed soon. | |
730 | - Tunnel header caching removed. | |
c6100d92 BP |
731 | - ovs-ofctl: |
732 | - Commands and actions that accept port numbers now also accept keywords | |
733 | that represent those ports (such as LOCAL, NONE, and ALL). This is | |
734 | also the recommended way to specify these ports, for compatibility | |
735 | with OpenFlow 1.1 and later (which use the OpenFlow 1.0 numbers | |
736 | for these ports for different purposes). | |
2562714a | 737 | - ovs-dpctl: |
4b3b8d8f JP |
738 | - Support requesting the port number with the "port_no" option in |
739 | the "add-if" command. | |
2562714a BP |
740 | - ovs-pki: The "online PKI" features have been removed, along with |
741 | the ovs-pki-cgi program that facilitated it, because of some | |
742 | alarmist insecurity claims. We do not believe that these claims | |
743 | are true, but because we do not know of any users for this | |
744 | feature it seems better on balance to remove it. (The ovs-pki-cgi | |
745 | program was not included in distribution packaging.) | |
341c4e59 BP |
746 | - ovsdb-server now enforces the immutability of immutable columns. This |
747 | was not enforced in earlier versions due to an oversight. | |
fd38af85 BP |
748 | - The following features are now deprecated. They will be removed no |
749 | earlier than February 2013. Please email dev@openvswitch.org with | |
750 | concerns. | |
a8643e44 | 751 | - Bridge compatibility. |
fd38af85 BP |
752 | - Stable bond mode. |
753 | - The autopath action. | |
754 | - Interface type "null". | |
755 | - Numeric values for reserved ports (see "ovs-ofctl" note above). | |
85340733 | 756 | - Tunnel Path MTU Discovery. |
1280bf0e | 757 | - CAPWAP tunnel support. |
f07ee64c MM |
758 | - The data in the RARP packets can now be matched in the same way as the |
759 | data in ARP packets. | |
945cad7f | 760 | |
79f827fa | 761 | |
fdfe872d | 762 | v1.8.0 - 26 Feb 2013 |
c8d5d22c | 763 | ------------------------ |
fdfe872d | 764 | *** Internal only release *** |
c483d489 | 765 | - New FAQ. Please send updates and additions! |
f25d0cf3 BP |
766 | - Authors of controllers, please read the new section titled "Action |
767 | Reproduction" in DESIGN, which describes an Open vSwitch change in | |
768 | behavior in corner cases that may affect some controllers. | |
2d8bdd8f AA |
769 | - ovs-l3ping: |
770 | - A new test utility that can create L3 tunnel between two Open | |
771 | vSwitches and detect connectivity issues. | |
5498c01f | 772 | - ovs-ofctl: |
bdcc5925 | 773 | - New --sort and --rsort options for "dump-flows" command. |
5498c01f | 774 | - "mod-port" command can now control all OpenFlow config flags. |
c08201d6 | 775 | - OpenFlow: |
ff0b06ee BP |
776 | - Allow general bitwise masking for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in |
777 | IPv4, IPv6, and ARP packets. (Previously, only CIDR masks | |
c08201d6 BP |
778 | were allowed.) |
779 | - Allow support for arbitrary Ethernet masks. (Previously, only | |
780 | the multicast bit in the destination address could be individually | |
781 | masked.) | |
969fc56c | 782 | - New field OXM_OF_METADATA, to align with OpenFlow 1.1. |
0414d158 BP |
783 | - The OFPST_QUEUE request now reports an error if a specified port or |
784 | queue does not exist, or for requests for a specific queue on all | |
785 | ports, if the specified queue does not exist on any port. (Previous | |
786 | versions generally reported an empty set of results.) | |
2b07c8b1 BP |
787 | - New "flow monitor" feature to allow controllers to be notified of |
788 | flow table changes as they happen. | |
c93f9a78 EJ |
789 | - Additional protocols are not mirrored and dropped when forward-bpdu is |
790 | false. For a full list, see the ovs-vswitchd.conf.db man page. | |
38f7147c EJ |
791 | - Open vSwitch now sends RARP packets in situations where it previously |
792 | sent a custom protocol, making it consistent with behavior of QEMU and | |
793 | VMware. | |
969e46a2 AS |
794 | - All Open vSwitch programs and log files now show timestamps in UTC, |
795 | instead the local timezone, by default. | |
c8d5d22c JP |
796 | |
797 | ||
3b4ab170 | 798 | v1.7.0 - 30 Jul 2012 |
dd1ba5b3 | 799 | ------------------------ |
9b80f761 CW |
800 | - kernel modules are renamed. openvswitch_mod.ko is now |
801 | openvswitch.ko and brcompat_mod.ko is now brcompat.ko. | |
e9358af6 | 802 | - Increased the number of NXM registers to 8. |
22dd5cec | 803 | - Added ability to configure DSCP setting for manager and controller |
f125905c MM |
804 | connections. By default, these connections have a DSCP value of |
805 | Internetwork Control (0xc0). | |
3967a833 MM |
806 | - Added the granular link health statistics, 'cfm_health', to an |
807 | interface. | |
47284b1f AA |
808 | - OpenFlow: |
809 | - Added support to mask nd_target for ICMPv6 neighbor discovery flows. | |
2be393ed JP |
810 | - Added support for OpenFlow 1.3 port description (OFPMP_PORT_DESC) |
811 | multipart messages. | |
812 | - ovs-ofctl: | |
813 | - Added the "dump-ports-desc" command to retrieve port | |
814 | information using the new port description multipart messages. | |
8d25d9a2 AA |
815 | - ovs-test: |
816 | - Added support for spawning ovs-test server from the client. | |
817 | - Now ovs-test is able to automatically create test bridges and ports. | |
7393104d | 818 | - "ovs-dpctl dump-flows" now prints observed TCP flags in TCP flows. |
22dd5cec | 819 | - Tripled flow setup performance. |
a5f607bc BP |
820 | - The "coverage/log" command previously available through ovs-appctl |
821 | has been replaced by "coverage/show". The new command replies with | |
822 | coverage counter values, instead of logging them. | |
dd1ba5b3 JP |
823 | |
824 | ||
9d564cb2 | 825 | v1.6.1 - 25 Jun 2012 |
d0a8c2e0 | 826 | ------------------------ |
9d564cb2 JP |

828 | ||
829 | ||
830 | v1.6.0 - 24 Feb 2012 | |
831 | ------------------------ | |
832 | *** Internal only release *** | |
4df08875 | 833 | - bonding |
bdebeece EJ |
834 | - LACP bonds no longer fall back to balance-slb when negotiations fail. |
835 | Instead they drop traffic. | |
4df08875 EJ |
836 | - The default bond_mode changed from SLB to active-backup, to protect |
837 | unsuspecting users from the significant risks of SLB bonds (which are | |
838 | documented in vswitchd/INTERNALS). | |
bc1b010c EJ |
839 | - Load balancing can be disabled by setting the bond-rebalance-interval |
840 | to zero. | |
73f33563 BP |
841 | - OpenFlow: |
842 | - Added support for bitwise matching on TCP and UDP ports. | |
843 | See ovs-ofctl(8) for more information. | |
80d5aefd BP |
844 | - NXM flow dumps now include times elapsed toward idle and hard |
845 | timeouts. | |
846 | - Added an OpenFlow extension NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG that allows | |
847 | controllers more precise control over which OpenFlow messages they | |
848 | receive asynchronously. | |
0e553d9c BP |
849 | - New "fin_timeout" action. |
850 | - Added "fin_timeout" support to "learn" action. | |
a7349929 BP |
851 | - New Nicira action NXAST_CONTROLLER that offers additional features |
852 | over output to OFPP_CONTROLLER. | |
2c999774 BP |
853 | - When QoS settings for an interface do not configure a default queue |
854 | (queue 0), Open vSwitch now uses a default configuration for that | |
855 | queue, instead of dropping all packets as in previous versions. | |
2a3e30b2 BP |
856 | - Logging: |
857 | - Logging to console and file will have UTC timestamp as a default for | |
858 | all the daemons. An example of the default format is | |
859 | 2012-01-27T16:35:17Z. ovs-appctl can be used to change the default | |
860 | format as before. | |
861 | - The syntax of commands and options to set log levels was simplified, | |
862 | to make it easier to remember. | |
254750ce BP |
863 | - New support for limiting the number of flows in an OpenFlow flow |
864 | table, with configurable policy for evicting flows upon | |
865 | overflow. See the Flow_Table table in ovs-vswitch.conf.db(5) | |
866 | for more information. | |
9886b662 BP |
867 | - New "enable-async-messages" column in the Controller table. If set to |
868 | false, OpenFlow connections to the controller will initially have all | |
869 | asynchronous messages disabled, overriding normal OpenFlow behavior. | |
1745cd08 BP |
870 | - ofproto-provider interface: |
871 | - "struct rule" has a new member "used" that ofproto implementations | |
872 | should maintain by updating with ofproto_rule_update_used(). | |
8f46c9bb BP |
873 | - ovsdb-client: |
874 | - The new option --timestamp causes the "monitor" command to print | |
875 | a timestamp with every update. | |
a7aa2d3c | 876 | - CFM module CCM broadcasts can now be tagged with an 802.1p priority. |
d0a8c2e0 JP |

e729e793 JP |
881 | - OpenFlow: |
882 | - Added support for querying, modifying, and deleting flows | |
883 | based on flow cookie when using NXM. | |
b4b7f827 | 884 | - Added new NXM_PACKET_IN format. |
f0fd1a17 | 885 | - Added new NXAST_DEC_TTL action. |

892 | directories as defaults. | |
d1add61d JP |
893 | - The default MAC learning timeout has been increased from 60 seconds |
894 | to 300 seconds. The MAC learning timeout is now configurable. | |
e68bfcfc JP |

ef13dc11 | 897 | v1.4.0 - 30 Jan 2012 |
b6a9a95b | 898 | ------------------------ |
50bf17cd | 899 | - Compatible with Open vSwitch kernel module included in Linux 3.3. |
52a90c29 BP |
900 | - New "VLAN splinters" feature to work around buggy device drivers |
901 | in old Linux versions. (This feature is deprecated. When | |
902 | broken device drivers are no longer in widespread use, we will | |
903 | delete this feature.) See ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5) for more | |
904 | information. | |
fa8223b7 JP |
905 | - OpenFlow: |
906 | - Added ability to match on IPv6 flow label through NXM. | |
530180fd | 907 | - Added ability to match on ECN bits in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM. |
a61680c6 | 908 | - Added ability to match on TTL in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM. |
530180fd | 909 | - Added ability to modify ECN bits in IPv4. |
a61680c6 | 910 | - Added ability to modify TTL in IPv4. |
9d24de3b | 911 | - ovs-vswitchd: |
c06bba01 JP |
912 | - Don't require the "normal" action to use mirrors. Traffic will |
913 | now be properly mirrored for any flows, regardless of their | |
914 | actions. | |
9d24de3b | 915 | - Track packet and byte statistics sent on mirrors. |
733adf2a LG |
916 | - The sFlow implementation can now usually infer the correct agent |
917 | device instead of having to be told explicitly. | |
f0a3aa2e AA |
918 | - ovs-appctl: |
919 | - New "fdb/flush" command to flush bridge's MAC learning table. | |
0be6140a AA |
920 | - ovs-test: |
921 | - A new distributed testing tool that allows one to diagnose performance | |
922 | and connectivity issues. This tool currently is not included in RH or | |
923 | Xen packages. | |
0fb42626 | 924 | - RHEL packaging now supports integration with Red Hat network scripts. |
4c57c3bc EJ |
925 | - bonding: |
926 | - Post 1.4.*, OVS will be changing the default bond mode from balance-slb | |
927 | to active-backup. SLB bonds carry significant risks with them | |
928 | (documented vswitchd/INTERNALS) which we want to prevent unsuspecting | |
929 | users from running into. Users are advised to update any scripts or | |
930 | configuration which may be negatively impacted by explicitly setting | |
931 | the bond mode which they want to use. | |
b6a9a95b | 932 | |
0be6140a | 933 | |
ddc29387 | 934 | v1.3.0 - 09 Dec 2011 |

938 | NXM fields. | |
75a75043 | 939 | - Added an OpenFlow extension for flexible learning. |
d2c0fed9 | 940 | - Bumped number of NXM registers from four to five. |
d5e1e5ed | 941 | - ovs-appctl: |
ae75dae3 JP |
942 | - New "version" command to determine version of running daemon. |
943 | - If no argument is provided for "cfm/show", displays detailed | |
944 | information about all interfaces with CFM enabled. | |
5dab8ece JP |
945 | - If no argument is provided for "lacp/show", displays detailed |
946 | information about all ports with LACP enabled. | |
10500639 BP |
947 | - ovs-dpctl: |
948 | - New "set-if" command to modify a datapath port's configuration. | |
29901626 BP |
949 | - ovs-vswitchd: |
950 | - The software switch now supports 255 OpenFlow tables, instead | |
951 | of just one. By default, only table 0 is consulted, but the | |
952 | new NXAST_RESUBMIT_TABLE action can look up in additional | |
953 | tables. Tables 128 and above are reserved for use by the | |
954 | switch itself; please use only tables 0 through 127. | |
21f7563c | 955 | - Add support for 802.1D spanning tree (STP). |
7257b535 BP |
956 | - Fragment handling extensions: |
957 | - New OFPC_FRAG_NX_MATCH fragment handling mode, in which L4 | |
958 | fields are made available for matching in fragments with | |
959 | offset 0. | |
960 | - New NXM_NX_IP_FRAG match field for matching IP fragments (usable | |
961 | via "ip_frag" in ovs-ofctl). | |
962 | - New ovs-ofctl "get-frags" and "set-frags" commands to get and set | |
963 | fragment handling policy. | |
2f4bc10d BP |
964 | - CAPWAP tunneling now supports an extension to transport a 64-bit key. |
965 | By default it remains compatible with the old version and other | |
c87112ca | 966 | standards-based implementations. |
17411ecf JG |
967 | - Flow setups are now processed in a round-robin manner across ports |
968 | to prevent any single client from monopolizing the CPU and conducting | |
969 | a denial of service attack. | |

5e9c5b61 | 975 | v1.2.0 - 03 Aug 2011 |
b78f6b77 | 976 | ------------------------ |
1a142ced JP |
977 | - New "ofproto" abstraction layer to ease porting to hardware |
978 | switching ASICs. | |
979 | - Packaging for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6 and 6.0. | |
980 | - Datapath support for Linux kernels up to 3.0. | |

985 | - Support cooperative locking between callers. | |
986 | - ovs-dpctl: | |
987 | - New "-s" option for "show" command prints packet and byte | |
988 | counters for each port. | |

989 | - ovs-ofctl: |
990 | - New "--readd" option for "replace-flows". | |
9b1735a7 BP |

045b2e5c BP |
995 | - ovs-openflowd has been renamed test-openflowd and moved into the |
996 | tests directory. Its presence confused too many users. Please | |
997 | use ovs-vswitchd instead. | |
1a142ced JP |
998 | - New ovs-benchmark utility to test flow setup performance. |
999 | - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility | |
1000 | "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously, | |
1001 | "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at | |
1002 | level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged | |
1003 | at "emer" level. | |
8a2d6596 BP |
1004 | - "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and |
1005 | --with-l26-source has been renamed --with-linux-source. The old | |

1064 | - New extension for OpenFlow vendor error codes. | |
1065 | - New extension to set the QoS output queue without actually | |
1066 | sending to an output port. | |
1067 | - Open vSwitch now reports a single flow table, instead of | |
