+v1.1.0 - 05 Apr 2011
+------------------------
+ - Ability to define policies over IPv6
+ - LACP
+ - 802.1ag CCM
+ - Support for extensible match extensions to OpenFlow
+ - QoS:
+ - Support for HFSC qdisc.
+ - Queue used by in-band control can now be configured.
+ - Kernel:
+ - Kernel<->userspace interface has been reworked and should be
+ close to a stable ABI now.
+ - "Port group" concept has been dropped.
+ - GRE over IPSEC tunnels
+ - Bonding:
+ - New active backup bonding mode.
+ - New L4 hashing support when LACP is enabled.
+ - Source MAC hash now includes VLAN field also.
+ - miimon support.
+ - Greatly improved handling of large flow tables
+ - ovs-dpctl:
+ - "show" command now prints full vport configuration.
+ - "dump-groups" command removed since kernel support for
+ port groups was dropped.
+ - ovs-vsctl:
+ - New commands for working with the new Managers table.
+ - "list" command enhanced with new formatting options and --columns
+ option.
+ - "get" command now accepts new --id option.
+ - New "find" command.
+ - ovs-ofctl:
+ - New "queue-stats" command for printing queue stats.
+ - New commands "replace-flows" and "diff-flows".
+ - Commands to add and remove flows can now read from files.
+ - New --flow-format option to enable or disable NXM.
+ - New --more option to increase OpenFlow message verbosity.
+ - Removed "tun-cookie" command, which is no longer useful.
+ - ovs-controller enhancements for testing various features.
+ - New ovs-vlan-test command for testing for Linux kernel driver VLAN
+ bugs. New ovs-vlan-bug-workaround command for enabling and
+ disabling a workaround for these driver bugs.
+ - OpenFlow support:
+ - "Resubmit" actions now update flow statistics.
+ - New "register" extension for use in matching and actions, via NXM.
+ - New "multipath" experimental action extension.
+ - New support for matching multicast Ethernet frames, via NXM.
+ - New extension for OpenFlow vendor error codes.
+ - New extension to set the QoS output queue without actually
+ sending to an output port.
+ - Open vSwitch now reports a single flow table, instead of
+ separate hash and wildcard tables. This better models the
+ current implementation.
+ - New experimental "note" action.
+ - New "ofproto/trace" ovs-appctl command and associated utilities
+ to ease debugging complex flow tables.
+ - Database:
+ - Schema documentation now includes an entity-relationship diagram.
+ - The database is now garbage collected. In most tables,
+ unreferenced rows will be deleted automatically.
+ - Many tables now include statistics updated periodically by
+ ovs-vswitchd or ovsdb-server.
+ - Every table now has an "external-ids" column for use by OVS
+ integrators.
+ - There is no default controller anymore. Each bridge must have its
+ controller individually specified.
+ - The "fail-mode" is now a property of a Bridge instead of a Controller.
+ - New versioning and checksum features.
+ - New Managers table and manager_options column in Open_vSwitch table
+ for specifying managers. The old "managers" column in the
+ Open_vSwitch table has been removed.
+ - Many "name" columns are now immutable.
+ - Feature removals:
+ - Dropped support for XenServer pre-5.6.100.
+ - Dropped support for Linux pre-2.6.18.
+ - Dropped controller discovery support.
+ - Dropped "ovs-ofctl status" and the OpenFlow extension that it used.
+ Statistics reporting in the database is a rough equivalent.
+ - Dropped the "corekeeper" package (now separate, at
+ http://openvswitch.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=corekeeper).
+ - Performance and scalability improvements
+ - Bug fixes
