File openvswitch.changes of Package openvswitch
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Dec 28 21:27:49 UTC 2014 - andrea@opensuse.org
- new upstream version 2.3.1
- Compatibility with autoconf 2.63 (previously >=2.64)
- ovs-pki: Changed message digest algorithm from MD5 to SHA-1 because
MD5 is no longer secure and some operating systems have started to disable
it in OpenSSL.
- Keep active bond slave selection across OVS restart.
* v2.3.0 - 14 Aug 2014
- OpenFlow 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 are now enabled by default in
ovs-vswitchd.
- Linux kernel datapath now has an exact match cache optimizing the
flow matching process.
- Datapath flows now have partially wildcarded tranport port field
matches. This reduces userspace upcalls, but increases the
number of different masks in the datapath. The kernel datapath
exact match cache removes the overhead of matching the incoming
packets with the larger number of masks, but when paired with an
older kernel module, some workloads may perform worse with the
new userspace.
* v2.2.0 - Internal Release
- Internal ports are no longer brought up by default, because it
should be an administrator task to bring up devices as they are
configured properly.
- ovs-vsctl now reports when ovs-vswitchd fails to create a new port or
bridge.
- The "ovsdbmonitor" graphical tool has been removed, because it was
poorly maintained and not widely used.
- New "check-ryu" Makefile target for running Ryu tests for OpenFlow
controllers against Open vSwitch. See INSTALL for details.
- Added IPFIX support for SCTP flows and templates for ICMPv4/v6 flows.
- Upon the receipt of a SIGHUP signal, ovs-vswitchd no longer reopens its
log file (it will terminate instead). Please use 'ovs-appctl vlog/reopen'
instead.
- Support for Linux kernels up to 3.14. From Kernel 3.12 onwards OVS uses
tunnel API for GRE and VXLAN.
- Added experimental DPDK support.
- Added support for custom vlog patterns in Python
- removed datapath-Add-support-for-Linux-3.12.patch no more required
- removed sle11-device-ops-backport.diff , not used before

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri May 2 03:38:11 UTC 2014 - e.istomin@edss.ee
- updated to 2.1.2.
This contains bug fixes related to sending packet-in messages to the controller.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 29 17:16:22 UTC 2014 - e.istomin@edss.ee
- updated to 2.1.1. This release removes the "ovsdbmonitor" program and contains bug fixes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 2 14:25:35 UTC 2014 - kmroz@suse.com
- Prevent ovsdb-server from entering an infinite loop when
processing logging levels during bringup.
added: log-check-module-loop.patch
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Mar 27 12:56:32 UTC 2014 - dmueller@suse.com
- update to 2.1.0:
- Address prefix tracking support for flow tables. New columns
"prefixes" in OVS-DB table "Flow_Table" controls which packet
header fields are used for address prefix tracking. Prefix
tracking allows the classifier to skip rules with longer than
necessary prefixes, resulting in better wildcarding for datapath
flows. Default configuration is to not use any fields for prefix
tracking. However, if any flow tables contain both exact matches
and masked matches for IP address fields, OVS performance may be
increased by using this feature.
* As of now, the fields for which prefix lookup can be enabled
are: 'tun_id', 'tun_src', 'tun_dst', 'nw_src', 'nw_dst' (or
aliases 'ip_src' and 'ip_dst'), 'ipv6_src', and 'ipv6_dst'.
(Using this feature for 'tun_id' would only make sense if the
tunnel IDs have prefix structure similar to IP addresses.)
* There is a maximum number of fields that can be enabled for any
one flow table. Currently this limit is 3.
* Examples:
$ ovs-vsctl set Bridge br0 flow_tables:0=@N1 -- \
--id=@N1 create Flow_Table name=table0
$ ovs-vsctl set Bridge br0 flow_tables:1=@N1 -- \
--id=@N1 create Flow_Table name=table1
$ ovs-vsctl set Flow_Table table0 prefixes=ip_dst,ip_src
$ ovs-vsctl set Flow_Table table1 prefixes=[]
- 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 now honors changes to the "ofport_request" column
in the Interface table by changing the port's OpenFlow port
number.
- 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-ofctl:
* New command "ofp-parse-pcap" to dump OpenFlow from PCAP files.
- 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.
- Added vlog option to export to a UDP syslog sink.
- ovsdb-client:
* The "monitor" command can now monitor all tables in a database,
instead of being limited to a single table.
- The flow-eviction-threshold has been replaced by the flow-limit which is a
hard limit on the number of flows in the datapath. It defaults to 200,000
flows. OVS automatically adjusts this number depending on network
conditions.

Thu Dec 5 13:14:11 UTC 2013 - dmueller@suse.com
- update to 2.0.0:
- 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).
* 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
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.
- Added configurable flow caching support to IPFIX exporter.
