+   - OpenFlow 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 are now enabled by default in
+     ovs-vswitchd.
+   - Linux kernel datapath now has an exact match cache optimizing the
+     flow matching process.
+   - Datapath flows now have partially wildcarded tranport port field
+     matches.  This reduces userspace upcalls, but increases the
+     number of different masks in the datapath.  The kernel datapath
+     exact match cache removes the overhead of matching the incoming
+     packets with the larger number of masks, but when paired with an
+     older kernel module, some workloads may perform worse with the
+     new userspace.
+   - Support for multicast snooping (IGMPv1 and IGMPv2)
+   - Compatibility with autoconf 2.63 (previously >=2.64)

+v2.2.0 - Internal Release
 ---------------------
    - Internal ports are no longer brought up by default, because it
      should be an administrator task to bring up devices as they are
      configured properly.
    - ovs-vsctl now reports when ovs-vswitchd fails to create a new port or
      bridge.
+   - Port creation and configuration errors are now stored in a new error
+     column of the Interface table and included in 'ovs-vsctl show'.
    - The "ovsdbmonitor" graphical tool has been removed, because it was
      poorly maintained and not widely used.
    - New "check-ryu" Makefile target for running Ryu tests for OpenFlow
