- OpenFlow:
* OpenFlow 1.5 (draft) extended registers are now supported.
* OpenFlow 1.5 (draft) Copy-Field action is now supported.
+ * OpenFlow 1.5 (draft) masked Set-Field action is now supported.
* OpenFlow 1.3+ table features requests are now supported (read-only).
* Nicira extension "move" actions may now be included in action sets.
+ * "resubmit" actions may now be included in action sets. The resubmit
+ is executed last, and only if the action set has no "output" or "group"
+ action.
+ - ovs-pki: Changed message digest algorithm from MD5 to SHA-1 because
+ MD5 is no longer secure and some operating systems have started to disable
+ it in OpenSSL.
- ovsdb-server: New OVSDB protocol extension allows inequality tests on
"optional scalar" columns. See ovsdb-server(1) for details.
+ - ovs-vsctl now permits immutable columns in a new row to be modified in
+ the same transaction that creates the row.
- test-controller has been renamed ovs-testcontroller at request of users
who find it useful for testing basic OpenFlow setups. It is still not
a necessary or desirable part of most Open vSwitch deployments.
+ - Support for travis-ci.org based continuous integration builds has been
+ added. Build failures are reported to build@openvswitch.org. See INSTALL
+ file for additional details.
+ - Experimental support for the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol
+ (IEEE 802.1D-2004). More conformance and interoperability testing is
+ still needed, so this should not be enabled on production environments.
+ - Stats are no longer updated on fake bond interface.
+ - Keep active bond slave selection across OVS restart.
