Some existing ovs-appctl + commands are now redundant and will be removed in a future + release. See ovs-vswitchd(8) for details. + - OpenFlow: + * OpenFlow 1.4 bundles are now supported for flow mods and port + mods. For flow mods, both 'atomic' and 'ordered' bundle flags + are trivially supported, as all bundled messages are executed + in the order they were added and all flow table modifications + are now atomic to the datapath.

If any of the flow mods in a transaction fail, none + of them are executed. All flow mods in a bundle appear to datapath + lookups simultaneously. + - ovs-ofctl 'add-flow' and 'add-flows' commands now accept arbitrary flow + mods as an input by allowing the flow specification to start with an + explicit 'add', 'modify', 'modify_strict', 'delete', or 'delete_strict' + keyword. A missing keyword is treated as 'add', so this is fully + backwards compatible. With the new '--bundle' option all the flow mods + are executed as a single atomic transaction using an OpenFlow 1.4 bundle. + - 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.md + file for additional details. + - Support for the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1D-2004). + The implementation has been tested successfully against the Ixia Automated + Network Validation Library (ANVL). + - Stats are no longer updated on fake bond interface. + - Keep active bond slave selection across OVS restart. + - A simple wrapper script, 'ovs-docker', to integrate OVS with Docker + containers. If and when there is a native integration of Open vSwitch + with Docker, the wrapper script will be retired. + - Added support for DPDK Tunneling. VXLAN, GRE, and Geneve are supported + protocols. This is generic tunneling mechanism for userspace datapath. + - Support for multicast snooping (IGMPv1, IGMPv2 and IGMPv3) + - Support for Linux kernels up to 4.0.x + - The documentation now use the term 'destination' to mean one of syslog, + console or file for vlog logging instead of the previously used term + 'facility'. + - Support for VXLAN Group Policy extension + - Initial support for the IETF Auto-Attach SPBM draft standard. This + contains rudimentary support for the LLDP protocol as needed for + Auto-Attach. + - The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports are now the IANA-assigned + numbers. OpenFlow is 6653 and OVSDB is 6640. + - Support for DPDK vHost. + - Support for outer UDP checksums in Geneve and VXLAN. + - The kernel vports with dependencies are no longer part of the overall + openvswitch.ko but built and loaded automatically as individual kernel + modules (vport-*.ko). + - Support for STT tunneling. + - Support to configure method (--syslog-method argument) that determines + how daemons will talk with syslog. + - Support for "ovs-appctl vlog/list-pattern" command that lets to query + logging message format for each destination. + - GRE64 and ipsec_gre64 tunnel protocol is deprecated and will be removed + from OVS v2.5 release. + * The openvswitch-testcontroller package is new.

New columns + "prefixes" in OVS-DB table "Flow_Table" controls which packet + header fields are used for address prefix tracking. Prefix + tracking allows the classifier to skip rules with longer than + necessary prefixes, resulting in better wildcarding for datapath + flows. Default configuration is to not use any fields for prefix + tracking. However, if any flow tables contain both exact matches + and masked matches for IP address fields, OVS performance may be + increased by using this feature. + * As of now, the fields for which prefix lookup can be enabled + are: 'tun_id', 'tun_src', 'tun_dst', 'nw_src', 'nw_dst' (or + aliases 'ip_src' and 'ip_dst'), 'ipv6_src', and 'ipv6_dst'. + (Using this feature for 'tun_id' would only make sense if the + tunnel IDs have prefix structure similar to IP addresses.) + * There is a maximum number of fields that can be enabled for any + one flow table.

This + has an adverse performance impact when using OVS userspace 1.10 + or older (no megaflows support) together with the new OVS kernel + module. It is recommended that the kernel and userspace modules + both are upgraded at the same time. + - The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports will change to + IANA-assigned numbers in a future release. Consider updating + your installations to specify port numbers instead of using the + defaults. + - OpenFlow: + * The OpenFlow 1.1+ "Write-Actions" instruction is now supported. + * OVS limits the OpenFlow port numbers it assigns to port 32767 and + below, leaving port numbers above that range free for assignment + by the controller. + * ovs-vswitchd now honors changes to the "ofport_request" column + in the Interface table by changing the port's OpenFlow port + number. + - ovs-vswitchd.conf.db.5 man page will contain graphviz/dot + diagram only if graphviz package was installed at the build time. + - Support for Linux kernels up to 3.11 + - ovs-dpctl: + The "show" command also displays mega flow mask stats. + - ovs-ofctl: + * New command "ofp-parse-pcap" to dump OpenFlow from PCAP files. + - ovs-controller has been renamed test-controller. It is no longer + packaged or installed by default, because too many users assumed + incorrectly that ovs-controller was a necessary or desirable part + of an Open vSwitch deployment. + - Added vlog option to export to a UDP syslog sink. + - ovsdb-client: + * The "monitor" command can now monitor all tables in a database, + instead of being limited to a single table. + - The flow-eviction-threshold has been replaced by the flow-limit which is a + hard limit on the number of flows in the datapath. It defaults to 200,000 + flows. OVS automatically adjusts this number depending on network + conditions. + * The openvswitch-controller package has been removed, because too many + users assumed incorrectly that ovs-controller was a necessary or + desirable part of an Open vSwitch deployment. + + -- Open vSwitch team Wed, 19 Mar 2014 16:08:38 -0700 + +openvswitch (2.0.0-1) unstable; urgency=low + [ Open vSwitch team ] + * New upstream version + - The ovs-vswitchd process is no longer single-threaded.
