+ - ovsdb-server:
+ * New "monitor2" and "update2" extensions to RFC 7047.
+
+v2.5.0 - xx xxx xxxx
+---------------------
+ - 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.
+ * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG and OFPT_GET_ASYNC_CONFIG are
+ now implemented.
+ - ovs-ofctl:
+ * New "out_group" keyword for OpenFlow 1.1+ matching on output group.
+ - Tunnels:
+ * Geneve tunnels can now match and set options and the OAM bit.
+ * The nonstandard GRE64 tunnel extension has been dropped.
+ - Support Multicast Listener Discovery (MLDv1 and MLDv2).
+ - Add 'symmetric_l3l4' and 'symmetric_l3l4+udp' hash functions.
+ - sFlow agent now reports tunnel and MPLS structures.
+ - 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
+ - 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.
+
+
+v2.4.0 - 20 Aug 2015
+---------------------
+ - Flow table modifications are now atomic, meaning that each packet
+ now sees a coherent version of the OpenFlow pipeline. For
+ example, if a controller removes all flows with a single OpenFlow
+ "flow_mod", no packet sees an intermediate version of the OpenFlow
+ pipeline where only some of the flows have been deleted.
+ - Added support for SFQ, FQ_CoDel and CoDel qdiscs.
+ - Add bash command-line completion support for ovs-vsctl Please check
+ utilities/ovs-command-compgen.INSTALL.md for how to use.
+ - The MAC learning feature now includes per-port fairness to mitigate
+ MAC flooding attacks.
