---------------------
- OpenFlow:
+ * Experimental support for OpenFlow 1.1 (in addition to 1.2 and
+ 1.3, which had experimental support in 1.10).
* 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.
+ 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.
+ - 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
vSwitch. See README-OFTest for details.
- The flow eviction threshold has been moved to the Open_vSwitch table.
+ - Database names are now mandatory when specifying ovsdb-server options
+ through database paths (e.g. Private key option with the database name
+ should look like "--private-key=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,private_key").
+ - Added ovs-dev.py, a utility script helpful for Open vSwitch developers.
+ - Support for Linux kernels up to 3.10
+ - ovs-ofctl:
+ * New "ofp-parse" for printing OpenFlow messages read from a file.
v1.11.0 - xx xxx xxxx
---------------------
+ - Support for megaflows, which allows wildcarding in the kernel (and
+ any dpif implementation that supports wildcards). Depending on
+ the flow table and switch configuration, flow set up rates are
+ close to the Linux bridge.
- The "tutorial" directory contains a new tutorial for some advanced
Open vSwitch features.
- Stable bond mode has been removed.
in_port to some unused value, such as OFPP_NONE.)
- ovs-dpctl:
* New debugging commands "add-flow", "mod-flow", "del-flow".
+ * "dump-flows" now has a -m option to increase output verbosity.
- In dpif-based bridges, cache action translations, which can improve
flow set up performance by 80% with a complicated flow table.
- New syslog format, prefixed with "ovs|", to be easier to filter.
