4 - Address prefix tracking support for flow tables. New columns
5 "prefixes" in OVS-DB table "Flow_Table" controls which packet
6 header fields are used for address prefix tracking. Prefix
7 tracking allows the classifier to skip rules with longer than
8 necessary prefixes, resulting in better wildcarding for datapath
9 flows. Default configuration is to not use any fields for prefix
10 tracking. However, if any flow tables contain both exact matches
11 and masked matches for IP address fields, OVS performance may be
12 increased by using this feature.
13 * As of now, the fields for which prefix lookup can be enabled
14 are: 'tun_id', 'tun_src', 'tun_dst', 'nw_src', 'nw_dst' (or
15 aliases 'ip_src' and 'ip_dst'), 'ipv6_src', and 'ipv6_dst'.
16 (Using this feature for 'tun_id' would only make sense if the
17 tunnel IDs have prefix structure similar to IP addresses.)
18 * There is a maximum number of fields that can be enabled for any
19 one flow table. Currently this limit is 3.
21 $ ovs-vsctl set Bridge br0 flow_tables:0=@N1 -- \
22 --id=@N1 create Flow_Table name=table0
23 $ ovs-vsctl set Bridge br0 flow_tables:1=@N1 -- \
24 --id=@N1 create Flow_Table name=table1
25 $ ovs-vsctl set Flow_Table table0 prefixes=ip_dst,ip_src
26 $ ovs-vsctl set Flow_Table table1 prefixes=[]
27 - TCP flags matching: OVS now supports matching of TCP flags. This
28 has an adverse performance impact when using OVS userspace 1.10
29 or older (no megaflows support) together with the new OVS kernel
30 module. It is recommended that the kernel and userspace modules
31 both are upgraded at the same time.
32 - The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports will change to
33 IANA-assigned numbers in a future release. Consider updating
34 your installations to specify port numbers instead of using the
37 * The OpenFlow 1.1+ "Write-Actions" instruction is now supported.
38 * OVS limits the OpenFlow port numbers it assigns to port 32767 and
39 below, leaving port numbers above that range free for assignment
41 * ovs-vswitchd now honors changes to the "ofport_request" column
42 in the Interface table by changing the port's OpenFlow port
44 - ovs-vswitchd.conf.db.5 man page will contain graphviz/dot
45 diagram only if graphviz package was installed at the build time.
46 - Support for Linux kernels up to 3.11
48 The "show" command also displays mega flow mask stats.
49 - ovs-controller has been renamed test-controller. It is no longer
50 packaged or installed by default, because too many users assumed
51 incorrectly that ovs-controller was a necessary or desirable part
52 of an Open vSwitch deployment.
53 - Added vlog option to export to a UDP syslog sink.
55 * The "monitor" command can now monitor all tables in a database,
56 instead of being limited to a single table.
61 - The ovs-vswitchd process is no longer single-threaded. Multiple
62 threads are now used to handle flow set up and asynchronous
65 * Experimental support for OpenFlow 1.1 (in addition to 1.2 and
66 1.3, which had experimental support in 1.10).
67 * Experimental protocol support for OpenFlow 1.1+ groups. This
68 does not yet include an implementation in the Open vSwitch
70 * Experimental protocol support for OpenFlow 1.2+ meters. This
71 does not yet include an implementation in the Open vSwitch
73 * New support for matching outer source and destination IP address
74 of tunneled packets, for tunnel ports configured with the newly
75 added "remote_ip=flow" and "local_ip=flow" options.
76 * Support for matching on metadata 'pkt_mark' for interacting with
77 other system components. On Linux this corresponds to the skb
79 * Support matching, rewriting SCTP ports
80 - The Interface table in the database has a new "ifindex" column to
81 report the interface's OS-assigned ifindex.
82 - New "check-oftest" Makefile target for running OFTest against Open
83 vSwitch. See README-OFTest for details.
84 - The flow eviction threshold has been moved to the Open_vSwitch table.
85 - Database names are now mandatory when specifying ovsdb-server options
86 through database paths (e.g. Private key option with the database name
87 should look like "--private-key=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,private_key").
88 - Added ovs-dev.py, a utility script helpful for Open vSwitch developers.
89 - Support for Linux kernels up to 3.10
91 * New "ofp-parse" for printing OpenFlow messages read from a file.
92 * New commands for OpenFlow 1.1+ groups.
93 - Added configurable flow caching support to IPFIX exporter.
94 - Dropped support for Linux pre-2.6.32.
95 - Log file timestamps and ovsdb commit timestamps are now reported
96 with millisecond resolution. (Previous versions only reported
100 v1.11.0 - 28 Aug 2013
101 ---------------------
102 - Support for megaflows, which allows wildcarding in the kernel (and
103 any dpif implementation that supports wildcards). Depending on
104 the flow table and switch configuration, flow set up rates are
105 close to the Linux bridge.
106 - The "tutorial" directory contains a new tutorial for some advanced
107 Open vSwitch features.
108 - Stable bond mode has been removed.
109 - The autopath action has been removed.
110 - New support for the data encapsulation format of the LISP tunnel
111 protocol (RFC 6830). An external control plane or manual flow
112 setup is required for EID-to-RLOC mapping.
114 * The "dec_mpls_ttl" and "set_mpls_ttl" actions from OpenFlow
115 1.1 and later are now implemented.
116 * New "stack" extension for use in actions, to push and pop from
118 * The "load" and "set_field" actions can now modify the "in_port". (This
119 allows one to enable output to a flow's input port by setting the
120 in_port to some unused value, such as OFPP_NONE.)
122 * New debugging commands "add-flow", "mod-flow", "del-flow".
123 * "dump-flows" now has a -m option to increase output verbosity.
124 - In dpif-based bridges, cache action translations, which can improve
125 flow set up performance by 80% with a complicated flow table.
126 - New syslog format, prefixed with "ovs|", to be easier to filter.
127 - RHEL: Removes the default firewall rule that allowed GRE traffic to
128 pass through. Any users that relied on this automatic firewall hole
129 will have to manually configure it. The ovs-ctl(8) manpage documents
130 the "enable-protocol" command that can be used as an alternative.
131 - New CFM demand mode which uses data traffic to indicate interface
134 v1.10.0 - 01 May 2013
135 ---------------------
136 - Bridge compatibility support has been removed. Any uses that
137 rely on ovs-brcompatd will have to stick with Open vSwitch 1.9.x
138 or adapt to native Open vSwitch support (e.g. use ovs-vsctl instead
140 - The maximum size of the MAC learning table is now configurable.
141 - With the Linux datapath, packets for new flows are now queued
142 separately on a per-port basis, so it should no longer be
143 possible for a large number of new flows arriving on one port to
144 prevent new flows from being processed on other ports.
146 * Previously ovs-vsctl would retry connecting to the database forever,
147 causing it to hang if ovsdb-server was not running. Now, ovs-vsctl
148 only tries once by default (use --retry to try forever). This change
149 means that you may want to remove uses of --timeout to avoid hangs
151 * Many "ovs-vsctl" database commands now accept an --if-exists option.
152 Please refer to the ovs-vsctl manpage for details.
154 - Experimental support for newer versions of OpenFlow. See
155 the "What versions of OpenFlow does Open vSwitch support?"
156 question in the FAQ for more details.
157 - The OpenFlow "dp_desc" may now be configured by setting the
158 value of other-config:dp-desc in the Bridge table.
159 - It is possible to request the OpenFlow port number with the
160 "ofport_request" column in the Interface table.
161 - The NXM flow_removed message now reports the OpenFlow table ID
162 from which the flow was removed.
164 - New support for the VXLAN tunnel protocol (see the IETF draft here:
165 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mahalingam-dutt-dcops-vxlan-03).
166 - Tunneling requires the version of the kernel module paired with
167 Open vSwitch 1.9.0 or later.
168 - Inheritance of the Don't Fragment bit in IP tunnels (df_inherit)
169 is no longer supported.
170 - Path MTU discovery is no longer supported.
171 - CAPWAP tunneling support removed.
172 - Tunnels with multicast destination ports are no longer supported.
174 - The "dump-flows" and "del-flows" no longer require an argument
175 if only one datapath exists.
177 - New "vlog/disable-rate-limit" and "vlog/enable-rate-limit"
178 commands available allow control over logging rate limits.
179 - New "dpif/dump-dps", "dpif/show", and "dpif/dump-flows" command
180 that mimic the equivalent ovs-dpctl commands.
181 - The ofproto library is now responsible for assigning OpenFlow port
182 numbers. An ofproto implementation should assign them when
183 port_construct() is called.
184 - All dpif-based bridges of a particular type share a common
185 datapath called "ovs-<type>", e.g. "ovs-system". The ovs-dpctl
186 commands will now return information on that shared datapath. To
187 get the equivalent bridge-specific information, use the new
188 "ovs-appctl dpif/*" commands.
189 - Backward-incompatible changes:
190 - Earlier Open vSwitch versions treated ANY as a wildcard in flow
191 syntax. OpenFlow 1.1 adds a port named ANY, which introduces a
192 conflict. ANY was rarely used in flow syntax, so we chose to
193 retire that meaning of ANY in favor of the OpenFlow 1.1 meaning.
194 - Patch ports no longer require kernel support, so they now work
195 with FreeBSD and the kernel module built into Linux 3.3 and later.
196 - New "sample" action.
200 ------------------------
202 - Support for ipv6 set action.
203 - SKB mark matching and setting.
204 - support for Linux kernels up to 3.8
205 - FreeBSD is now a supported platform, thanks to code contributions from
206 Gaetano Catalli, Ed Maste, and Giuseppe Lettieri.
207 - ovs-bugtool: New --ovs option to report only OVS related information.
208 - New %t and %T log escapes to identify the subprogram within a
209 cooperating group of processes or threads that emitted a log message.
210 The default log patterns now include this information.
212 - Allow bitwise masking for SHA and THA fields in ARP, SLL and TLL
213 fields in IPv6 neighbor discovery messages, and IPv6 flow label.
214 - Adds support for writing to the metadata field for a flow.
216 - The tunneling code no longer assumes input and output keys are
217 symmetric. If they are not, PMTUD needs to be disabled for
218 tunneling to work. Note this only applies to flow-based keys.
219 - New support for a nonstandard form of GRE that supports a 64-bit key.
220 - Tunnel Path MTU Discovery default value was set to 'disabled'.
221 This feature is deprecated and will be removed soon.
222 - Tunnel header caching removed.
224 - Commands and actions that accept port numbers now also accept keywords
225 that represent those ports (such as LOCAL, NONE, and ALL). This is
226 also the recommended way to specify these ports, for compatibility
227 with OpenFlow 1.1 and later (which use the OpenFlow 1.0 numbers
228 for these ports for different purposes).
230 - Support requesting the port number with the "port_no" option in
231 the "add-if" command.
232 - ovs-pki: The "online PKI" features have been removed, along with
233 the ovs-pki-cgi program that facilitated it, because of some
234 alarmist insecurity claims. We do not believe that these claims
235 are true, but because we do not know of any users for this
236 feature it seems better on balance to remove it. (The ovs-pki-cgi
237 program was not included in distribution packaging.)
238 - ovsdb-server now enforces the immutability of immutable columns. This
239 was not enforced in earlier versions due to an oversight.
240 - The following features are now deprecated. They will be removed no
241 earlier than February 2013. Please email dev@openvswitch.org with
243 - Bridge compatibility.
245 - The autopath action.
246 - Interface type "null".
247 - Numeric values for reserved ports (see "ovs-ofctl" note above).
248 - Tunnel Path MTU Discovery.
249 - CAPWAP tunnel support.
250 - The data in the RARP packets can now be matched in the same way as the
255 ------------------------
256 *** Internal only release ***
257 - New FAQ. Please send updates and additions!
258 - Authors of controllers, please read the new section titled "Action
259 Reproduction" in DESIGN, which describes an Open vSwitch change in
260 behavior in corner cases that may affect some controllers.
262 - A new test utility that can create L3 tunnel between two Open
263 vSwitches and detect connectivity issues.
265 - New --sort and --rsort options for "dump-flows" command.
266 - "mod-port" command can now control all OpenFlow config flags.
268 - Allow general bitwise masking for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in
269 IPv4, IPv6, and ARP packets. (Previously, only CIDR masks
271 - Allow support for arbitrary Ethernet masks. (Previously, only
272 the multicast bit in the destination address could be individually
274 - New field OXM_OF_METADATA, to align with OpenFlow 1.1.
275 - The OFPST_QUEUE request now reports an error if a specified port or
276 queue does not exist, or for requests for a specific queue on all
277 ports, if the specified queue does not exist on any port. (Previous
278 versions generally reported an empty set of results.)
279 - New "flow monitor" feature to allow controllers to be notified of
280 flow table changes as they happen.
281 - Additional protocols are not mirrored and dropped when forward-bpdu is
282 false. For a full list, see the ovs-vswitchd.conf.db man page.
283 - Open vSwitch now sends RARP packets in situations where it previously
284 sent a custom protocol, making it consistent with behavior of QEMU and
286 - All Open vSwitch programs and log files now show timestamps in UTC,
287 instead the local timezone, by default.
291 ------------------------
292 - kernel modules are renamed. openvswitch_mod.ko is now
293 openvswitch.ko and brcompat_mod.ko is now brcompat.ko.
294 - Increased the number of NXM registers to 8.
295 - Added ability to configure DSCP setting for manager and controller
296 connections. By default, these connections have a DSCP value of
297 Internetwork Control (0xc0).
298 - Added the granular link health statistics, 'cfm_health', to an
301 - Added support to mask nd_target for ICMPv6 neighbor discovery flows.
302 - Added support for OpenFlow 1.3 port description (OFPMP_PORT_DESC)
305 - Added the "dump-ports-desc" command to retrieve port
306 information using the new port description multipart messages.
308 - Added support for spawning ovs-test server from the client.
309 - Now ovs-test is able to automatically create test bridges and ports.
310 - "ovs-dpctl dump-flows" now prints observed TCP flags in TCP flows.
311 - Tripled flow setup performance.
312 - The "coverage/log" command previously available through ovs-appctl
313 has been replaced by "coverage/show". The new command replies with
314 coverage counter values, instead of logging them.
318 ------------------------
319 - Allow OFPP_CONTROLLER as the in_port for packet-out messages.
323 ------------------------
324 *** Internal only release ***
326 - LACP bonds no longer fall back to balance-slb when negotiations fail.
327 Instead they drop traffic.
328 - The default bond_mode changed from SLB to active-backup, to protect
329 unsuspecting users from the significant risks of SLB bonds (which are
330 documented in vswitchd/INTERNALS).
331 - Load balancing can be disabled by setting the bond-rebalance-interval
334 - Added support for bitwise matching on TCP and UDP ports.
335 See ovs-ofctl(8) for more information.
336 - NXM flow dumps now include times elapsed toward idle and hard
338 - Added an OpenFlow extension NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG that allows
339 controllers more precise control over which OpenFlow messages they
340 receive asynchronously.
341 - New "fin_timeout" action.
342 - Added "fin_timeout" support to "learn" action.
343 - New Nicira action NXAST_CONTROLLER that offers additional features
344 over output to OFPP_CONTROLLER.
345 - When QoS settings for an interface do not configure a default queue
346 (queue 0), Open vSwitch now uses a default configuration for that
347 queue, instead of dropping all packets as in previous versions.
349 - Logging to console and file will have UTC timestamp as a default for
350 all the daemons. An example of the default format is
351 2012-01-27T16:35:17Z. ovs-appctl can be used to change the default
353 - The syntax of commands and options to set log levels was simplified,
354 to make it easier to remember.
355 - New support for limiting the number of flows in an OpenFlow flow
356 table, with configurable policy for evicting flows upon
357 overflow. See the Flow_Table table in ovs-vswitch.conf.db(5)
358 for more information.
359 - New "enable-async-messages" column in the Controller table. If set to
360 false, OpenFlow connections to the controller will initially have all
361 asynchronous messages disabled, overriding normal OpenFlow behavior.
362 - ofproto-provider interface:
363 - "struct rule" has a new member "used" that ofproto implementations
364 should maintain by updating with ofproto_rule_update_used().
366 - The new option --timestamp causes the "monitor" command to print
367 a timestamp with every update.
368 - CFM module CCM broadcasts can now be tagged with an 802.1p priority.
372 ------------------------
374 - Added support for querying, modifying, and deleting flows
375 based on flow cookie when using NXM.
376 - Added new NXM_PACKET_IN format.
377 - Added new NXAST_DEC_TTL action.
379 - Added daemonization support to the monitor and snoop commands.
381 - The "find" command supports new set relational operators
382 {=}, {!=}, {<}, {>}, {<=}, and {>=}.
383 - ovsdb-tool now uses the typical database and schema installation
384 directories as defaults.
385 - The default MAC learning timeout has been increased from 60 seconds
386 to 300 seconds. The MAC learning timeout is now configurable.
390 ------------------------
391 - Compatible with Open vSwitch kernel module included in Linux 3.3.
392 - New "VLAN splinters" feature to work around buggy device drivers
393 in old Linux versions. (This feature is deprecated. When
394 broken device drivers are no longer in widespread use, we will
395 delete this feature.) See ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5) for more
398 - Added ability to match on IPv6 flow label through NXM.
399 - Added ability to match on ECN bits in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM.
400 - Added ability to match on TTL in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM.
401 - Added ability to modify ECN bits in IPv4.
402 - Added ability to modify TTL in IPv4.
404 - Don't require the "normal" action to use mirrors. Traffic will
405 now be properly mirrored for any flows, regardless of their
407 - Track packet and byte statistics sent on mirrors.
408 - The sFlow implementation can now usually infer the correct agent
409 device instead of having to be told explicitly.
411 - New "fdb/flush" command to flush bridge's MAC learning table.
413 - A new distributed testing tool that allows one to diagnose performance
414 and connectivity issues. This tool currently is not included in RH or
416 - RHEL packaging now supports integration with Red Hat network scripts.
418 - Post 1.4.*, OVS will be changing the default bond mode from balance-slb
419 to active-backup. SLB bonds carry significant risks with them
420 (documented vswitchd/INTERNALS) which we want to prevent unsuspecting
421 users from running into. Users are advised to update any scripts or
422 configuration which may be negatively impacted by explicitly setting
423 the bond mode which they want to use.
427 ------------------------
429 - Added an OpenFlow extension which allows the "output" action to accept
431 - Added an OpenFlow extension for flexible learning.
432 - Bumped number of NXM registers from four to five.
434 - New "version" command to determine version of running daemon.
435 - If no argument is provided for "cfm/show", displays detailed
436 information about all interfaces with CFM enabled.
437 - If no argument is provided for "lacp/show", displays detailed
438 information about all ports with LACP enabled.
440 - New "set-if" command to modify a datapath port's configuration.
442 - The software switch now supports 255 OpenFlow tables, instead
443 of just one. By default, only table 0 is consulted, but the
444 new NXAST_RESUBMIT_TABLE action can look up in additional
445 tables. Tables 128 and above are reserved for use by the
446 switch itself; please use only tables 0 through 127.
447 - Add support for 802.1D spanning tree (STP).
448 - Fragment handling extensions:
449 - New OFPC_FRAG_NX_MATCH fragment handling mode, in which L4
450 fields are made available for matching in fragments with
452 - New NXM_NX_IP_FRAG match field for matching IP fragments (usable
453 via "ip_frag" in ovs-ofctl).
454 - New ovs-ofctl "get-frags" and "set-frags" commands to get and set
455 fragment handling policy.
456 - CAPWAP tunneling now supports an extension to transport a 64-bit key.
457 By default it remains compatible with the old version and other
458 standards-based implementations.
459 - Flow setups are now processed in a round-robin manner across ports
460 to prevent any single client from monopolizing the CPU and conducting
461 a denial of service attack.
462 - Added support for native VLAN tagging. A new "vlan_mode"
463 parameter can be set for "port". Possible values: "access",
464 "trunk", "native-tagged" and "native-untagged".
465 - test-openflowd has been removed. Please use ovs-vswitchd instead.
468 ------------------------
469 - New "ofproto" abstraction layer to ease porting to hardware
471 - Packaging for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6 and 6.0.
472 - Datapath support for Linux kernels up to 3.0.
474 - New "bundle" and "bundle_load" action extensions.
476 - Implement table unique constraints.
477 - Support cooperative locking between callers.
479 - New "-s" option for "show" command prints packet and byte
480 counters for each port.
482 - New "--readd" option for "replace-flows".
484 - New "show" command to print an overview of configuration.
485 - New "comment" command to add remark that explains intentions.
486 - ovs-brcompatd has been rewritten to fix long-standing bugs.
487 - ovs-openflowd has been renamed test-openflowd and moved into the
488 tests directory. Its presence confused too many users. Please
489 use ovs-vswitchd instead.
490 - New ovs-benchmark utility to test flow setup performance.
491 - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility
492 "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously,
493 "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at
494 level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged
496 - "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and
497 --with-l26-source has been renamed --with-linux-source. The old
498 names will be removed after the next release, so please update
500 - The "-2.6" suffix has been dropped from the datapath/linux-2.6 and
501 datapath/linux-2.6/compat-2.6 directories.
503 - Dropped support for "tun_id_from_cookie" OpenFlow extension.
504 Please use the extensible match extensions instead.
505 - Removed the Maintenance_Point and Monitor tables in an effort
506 to simplify 802.1ag configuration.
507 - Performance and scalability improvements
511 ------------------------
512 - Ability to define policies over IPv6
515 - Support for extensible match extensions to OpenFlow
517 - Support for HFSC qdisc.
518 - Queue used by in-band control can now be configured.
520 - Kernel<->userspace interface has been reworked and should be
521 close to a stable ABI now.
522 - "Port group" concept has been dropped.
523 - GRE over IPSEC tunnels
525 - New active backup bonding mode.
526 - New L4 hashing support when LACP is enabled.
527 - Source MAC hash now includes VLAN field also.
529 - Greatly improved handling of large flow tables
531 - "show" command now prints full vport configuration.
532 - "dump-groups" command removed since kernel support for
533 port groups was dropped.
535 - New commands for working with the new Managers table.
536 - "list" command enhanced with new formatting options and --columns
538 - "get" command now accepts new --id option.
539 - New "find" command.
541 - New "queue-stats" command for printing queue stats.
542 - New commands "replace-flows" and "diff-flows".
543 - Commands to add and remove flows can now read from files.
544 - New --flow-format option to enable or disable NXM.
545 - New --more option to increase OpenFlow message verbosity.
546 - Removed "tun-cookie" command, which is no longer useful.
547 - ovs-controller enhancements for testing various features.
548 - New ovs-vlan-test command for testing for Linux kernel driver VLAN
549 bugs. New ovs-vlan-bug-workaround command for enabling and
550 disabling a workaround for these driver bugs.
552 - "Resubmit" actions now update flow statistics.
553 - New "register" extension for use in matching and actions, via NXM.
554 - New "multipath" experimental action extension.
555 - New support for matching multicast Ethernet frames, via NXM.
556 - New extension for OpenFlow vendor error codes.
557 - New extension to set the QoS output queue without actually
558 sending to an output port.
559 - Open vSwitch now reports a single flow table, instead of
560 separate hash and wildcard tables. This better models the
561 current implementation.
