-v1.12.0 - xx xxx xxxx
+ - TCP flags matching: OVS now supports matching of TCP flags. 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.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-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.
+
+
+v2.0.0 - 15 Oct 2013
---------------------
+ - The ovs-vswitchd process is no longer single-threaded. Multiple
+ threads are now used to handle flow set up and asynchronous
+ logging.
- OpenFlow:
* Experimental support for OpenFlow 1.1 (in addition to 1.2 and
1.3, which had experimental support in 1.10).
+ * Experimental protocol support for OpenFlow 1.1+ groups. This
+ does not yet include an implementation in the Open vSwitch
+ software switch.
+ * Experimental protocol support for OpenFlow 1.2+ meters. This
+ does not yet include an implementation in the Open vSwitch
+ software switch.
* New support for matching outer source and destination IP address
of tunneled packets, for tunnel ports configured with the newly
added "remote_ip=flow" and "local_ip=flow" options.
* Support for matching on metadata 'pkt_mark' for interacting with
other system components. On Linux this corresponds to the skb
mark.
+ * Support matching, rewriting SCTP ports
- The Interface table in the database has a new "ifindex" column to
report the interface's OS-assigned ifindex.
- New "check-oftest" Makefile target for running OFTest against Open
- Support for Linux kernels up to 3.10
- ovs-ofctl:
* New "ofp-parse" for printing OpenFlow messages read from a file.
+ * New commands for OpenFlow 1.1+ groups.
+ - Added configurable flow caching support to IPFIX exporter.
+ - Dropped support for Linux pre-2.6.32.
+ - Log file timestamps and ovsdb commit timestamps are now reported
+ with millisecond resolution. (Previous versions only reported
+ whole seconds.)

+v1.11.0 - 28 Aug 2013
---------------------
- Support for megaflows, which allows wildcarding in the kernel (and
any dpif implementation that supports wildcards). Depending on
