openvswitch (1.3.0-1) unstable; urgency=low [ Open vSwitch team ] * New upstream version - OpenFlow: - Added an OpenFlow extension which allows the "output" action to accept NXM fields. - Added an OpenFlow extension for flexible learning. - Bumped number of NXM registers from four to five. - ovs-appctl: - New "version" command to determine version of running daemon. - If no argument is provided for "cfm/show", displays detailed information about all interfaces with CFM enabled. - If no argument is provided for "lacp/show", displays detailed information about all ports with LACP enabled. - ovs-vswitchd: - The software switch now supports 255 OpenFlow tables, instead of just one. By default, only table 0 is consulted, but the new NXAST_RESUBMIT_TABLE action can look up in additional tables. Tables 128 and above are reserved for use by the switch itself; please use only tables 0 through 127. - Add support for 802.1D spanning tree (STP). - Fragment handling extensions: - New OFPC_FRAG_NX_MATCH fragment handling mode, in which L4 fields are made available for matching in fragments with offset 0. - New NXM_NX_IP_FRAG match field for matching IP fragments (usable via "ip_frag" in ovs-ofctl). - New ovs-ofctl "get-frags" and "set-frags" commands to get and set fragment handling policy. - CAPWAP tunneling now supports an extension to transport a 64-key. By default it remains compatible with the old version and other standards-based implementations. - Flow setups are now processed in a round-robin manner across ports to prevent any single client from monopolizing the CPU and conducting a denial of service attack. - Added support for native VLAN tagging. A new "vlan_mode" parameter can be set for "port". Possible values: "access", "trunk", "native-tagged" and "native-untagged". - test-openflowd has been removed. Please use ovs-vswitchd instead. -- Open vSwitch team Mon, xx xxx xxxx 23:36:00 +0000 openvswitch (1.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low [ Open vSwitch team ] * New upstream version - New "ofproto" abstraction layer to ease porting to hardware switching ASICs. - Packaging for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6 and 6.0. - Datapath support for Linux kernels up to 3.0. - OpenFlow: - New "bundle" and "bundle_load" action extensions. - Database: - Implement table unique constraints. - Support cooperative locking between callers. - ovs-dpctl: - New "-s" option for "show" command prints packet and byte counters for each port. - ovs-ofctl: - New "--readd" option for "replace-flows". - ovs-vsctl: - New "show" command to print an overview of configuration. - New "comment" command to add remark that explains intentions. - ovs-brcompatd has been rewritten to fix long-standing bugs. - ovs-openflowd has been renamed test-openflowd and moved into the tests directory. Its presence confused too many users. Please use ovs-vswitchd instead. - New ovs-benchmark utility to test flow setup performance. - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously, "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged at "emer" level. - "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and --with-l26-source has been renamed --with-linux-source. The old names will be removed after the next release, so please update your scripts. - The "-2.6" suffix has been dropped from the datapath/linux-2.6 and datapath/linux-2.6/compat-2.6 directories. - Feature removals: - Dropped support for "tun_id_from_cookie" OpenFlow extension. Please use the extensible match extensions instead. - Removed the Maintenance_Point and Monitor tables in an effort to simplify 802.1ag configuration. - Performance and scalability improvements - Bug fixes -- Open vSwitch team Wed, 03 Aug 2011 14:43:00 +0000 openvswitch (1.1.1-1) unstable; urgency=low [ Open vSwitch team ] * Bug fixes.
