- 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.
- ofproto-provider interface:
- "struct rule" has a new member "used" that ofproto implementations
should maintain by updating with ofproto_rule_update_used().
