+openvswitch (1.6.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
+ [ Open vSwitch team ]
+ * New upstream version
+ - bonding
+ - LACP bonds no longer fall back to balance-slb when negotiations fail.
+ Instead they drop traffic.
+ - The default bond_mode changed from SLB to active-backup, to protect
+ unsuspecting users from the significant risks of SLB bonds (which are
+ documented in vswitchd/INTERNALS).
+ - Load balancing can be disabled by setting the bond-rebalance-interval
+ to zero.
+ - OpenFlow:
+ - Added support for bitwise matching on TCP and UDP ports.
+ See ovs-ofctl(8) for more information.
+ - NXM flow dumps now include times elapsed toward idle and hard
+ timeouts.
+ - Added an OpenFlow extension NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG that allows
+ controllers more precise control over which OpenFlow messages they
+ receive asynchronously.
+ - New "fin_timeout" action.
+ - Added "fin_timeout" support to "learn" action.
+ - The default MAC learning timeout has been increased from 60 seconds
+ to 300 seconds. The MAC learning timeout is now configurable.
+ - When QoS settings for an interface do not configure a default queue
+ (queue 0), Open vSwitch now uses a default configuration for that
+ queue, instead of dropping all packets as in previous versions.
+ - Logging to console and file will have UTC timestamp as a default for all
+ the daemons. An example of the default format is 2012-01-27T16:35:17Z.
+ ovs-appctl can be used to change the default format as before.
+ - New support for limiting the number of flows in an OpenFlow flow
+ table, with configurable policy for evicting flows upon
+ overflow. See the Flow_Table table in ovs-vswitch.conf.db(5)
+ for more information.
+ - New "enable-async-messages" column in the Controller table. If set to
+ false, OpenFlow connections to the controller will initially have all
+ asynchronous messages disabled, overriding normal OpenFlow behavior.
+ - ofproto-provider interface:
+ - "struct rule" has a new member "used" that ofproto implementations
+ should maintain by updating with ofproto_rule_update_used().
+ - ovsdb-client:
+ - The new option --timestamp causes the "monitor" command to print
+ a timestamp with every update.
+ - CFM module CCM broadcasts can now be tagged with an 802.1p priority.

+openvswitch (1.5.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
+ [ Open vSwitch team ]
+ * New upstream version
+ - OpenFlow:
+ - Added support for querying, modifying, and deleting flows
+ based on flow cookie when using NXM.
+ - Added new NXM_PACKET_IN format.
+ - ovs-ofctl:
+ - Added daemonization support to the monitor and snoop commands.
+ - ovs-vsctl:
+ - The "find" command supports new set relational operators
+ {=}, {!=}, {<}, {>}, {<=}, and {>=}.
+ - ovsdb-tool now uses the typical database and schema installation
+ directories as defaults.

+openvswitch (1.4.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
+ [ Open vSwitch team ]
+ * New upstream version
+ - Compatible with Open vSwitch kernel module included in Linux 3.3.
+ - New "VLAN splinters" feature to work around buggy device drivers
+ in old Linux versions. (This feature is deprecated. When
+ broken device drivers are no longer in widespread use, we will
+ delete this feature.) See ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5) for more
+ information.
+ - OpenFlow:
+ - Added ability to match on IPv6 flow label through NXM.
+ - Added ability to match on ECN bits in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM.
+ - Added ability to match on TTL in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM.
+ - Added ability to modify ECN bits in IPv4.
+ - Added ability to modify TTL in IPv4.
+ - ovs-vswitchd:
+ - Don't require the "normal" action to use mirrors. Traffic will
+ now be properly mirrored for any flows, regardless of their
+ actions.
+ - Track packet and byte statistics sent on mirrors.
+ - ovs-appctl:
+ - New "fdb/flush" command to flush bridge's MAC learning table.
+ - ovs-test:
+ - A new distributed testing tool that allows one to diagnose performance
+ and connectivity issues. This tool currently is not included in RH or
+ Xen packages.
+ - RHEL packaging now supports integration with Red Hat network scripts.
+ - Debian: Depend on python (>= 2.7) | python-argparse instead of
+ python-argparse to avoid pulling in python2.6
+ (closes: #653645)

+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.
