- OVN update to 25.03.2
- Bug fixes
- Dynamic Routing:
* Add the option "dynamic-routing-redistribute-local-only" to Logical
Routers and Logical Router Ports which refines the way in which
chassis-specific Advertised_Routes (e.g., for NAT and LB IPs) are
advertised.
* Add the option "dynamic-routing-vrf-id" to Logical Routers which allows
CMS to specify the Linux routing table id for a given vrf.
- Add ovn-nbctl lsp-add-router-port which will create router port on
specified LS.
- Add ovn-nbctl lsp-add-localnet-port which will create localnet port on
specified LS.

Description:
- Update OVS to version v3.1.0 and OVN to version v23.03.0
Actions:
- submit home:dpitchumani:branches:openSUSE:Factory/openvswitch => netowkr/openvswitch
Features:
- ovs-vswitchd now detects changes in CPU affinity and adjusts the number
of handler and revalidator threads if necessary.
- AF_XDP:
* Added support for building with libxdp and libbpf >= 0.7.
* Support for AF_XDP is now enabled by default if all dependencies are
available at the build time. Use --disable-afxdp to disable.
Use --enable-afxdp to fail the build if dependencies are not present.
- ovs-appctl:
* "ovs-appctl ofproto/trace" command can now display port names with the
"--names" option.
- OVSDB-IDL:
* Add the support to specify the persistent uuid for row insert in both
C and Python IDLs.
- Windows:
* Conntrack IPv6 fragment support.
- DPDK:
* Add support for DPDK 22.11.1.
- For the QoS max-rate and STP/RSTP path-cost configuration OVS now assumes
10 Gbps link speed by default in case the actual link speed cannot be
determined. Previously it was 10 Mbps. Values can still be overridden
by specifying 'max-rate' or '[r]stp-path-cost' accordingly.
- OpenFlow:
* New OpenFlow extension NXT_CT_FLUSH to flush connections matching
the specified fields.
- ovs-ctl:
* New option '--dump-hugepages' to include hugepages in core dumps. This
can assist with postmortem analysis involving DPDK, but may also produce
significantly larger core dump files.
- ovs-dpctl and 'ovs-appctl dpctl/' commands:
* 'flush-conntrack' is now capable of handling partial 5-tuple,
with additional optional parameter to specify the reply direction.
- ovs-ofctl:
* New command 'flush-conntrack' that accepts zone and 5-tuple (or partial
5-tuple) for both directions.
- Support for travis-ci.org based continuous integration builds has been
dropped.
- Userspace datapath:
* Add '-secs' argument to appctl 'dpif-netdev/pmd-rxq-show' to show
the pmd usage of an Rx queue over a configurable time period.
* Add new experimental PMD load based sleeping feature. PMD threads can
request to sleep up to a user configured 'pmd-maxsleep' value under
low load conditions.

-Includes secrity fix for CVE-2022-4338 (bsc#1206580) and CVE-2022-4337 (bsc#1206581)
- OVN package is not included as new version with API chnages are not yet released.
- Removed upstreamed patches,
* 0001-Replace-deprecated-var-run-with-run.patch
* openvswitch-CVE-2021-36980.patch
- Added ovsb tool install patch,
* install-ovsdb-tools.patch

- Bug fixes
- DPDK:
* OVS validated with DPDK 21.11.1. It is recommended to use this version
until further releases.
- Bug fixes
- libopenvswitch API change:
* To fix the Undefined Behavior issue causing the compiler to incorrectly
optimize important parts of code, container iteration macros (e.g.,
LIST_FOR_EACH) have been re-implemented in a UB-safe way.
* Backwards compatibility has mostly been preserved, however the
user-provided pointer is now set to NULL after the loop (unless it
exited via "break;")
* Users of libopenvswitch will need to double-check the use of such loop
macros before compiling with a new version.
* Since the change is limited to the definitions within the headers, the
ABI is not affected.
- refresh 0001-openvswitch-merge-compiler.h-files-into-one-file.patch
0002-build-Seperated-common-used-headers.patch
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/network/openvswitch?expand=0&rev=229
- Fix preserving old default OVS_USER_ID for users that removed the
override at /etc/sysconfig/openvswitch or for users affected by
fillup bug below (bsc#1172861).
- Add patch to workaround a possible fillup issue that could cause
existing openvswitch configuration to be unintendedly altered during
upgrades (bsc#1172929).
* 0001-Use-double-hash-for-OVS_USER_ID-comment.patch
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/814738
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/network/openvswitch?expand=0&rev=201
- Update openvswitch to 2.13.0.
* For a list of changes, check
https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/blob/v2.13.0/NEWS
* This version drops python2 binding support. Only python3 bindings
provided going forward.
* Tool ovs-vlan-bug-workaround is no longer provided.
- OVN was split to its own repo but is still built together with OVS and as
such from this same source package. OVN initial version is 20.03.
* For a list of changes, check
https://github.com/ovn-org/ovn/blob/v20.03.0/NEWS
* Packages openvswitch-ovn* are renamed to ovn*.
* OVN now has its own sysconfig and log paths.
- Add OVS patch to be proposed upstream:
* 0001-rhel-Fix-reload-of-OVS_USER_ID-on-startup.patch
- Patch instead of post-processing configuration files to set running
credentials (bsc#1157338):
* 0001-Run-openvswitch-as-openvswitch-openvswitch.patch
* 0001-Run-ovn-as-openvswitch-openvswitch.patch
- Will no longer change group ownership of /dev/hugepages to 'hugetlbfs'
(bsc#1140835). System admin should mount hugepages on a path and permissions of
his choosing for OVS. Add patch:
* 0001-dont-change-permissions-of-dev-hugepages.patch
- Will no longer install udev rule to change group ownership of vfio devices to
'hugetlbfs'. Group name does not make much sense in this case and ownership of
vfio devices should be coordinated system wide or per device.
- Will no longer run under group 'hugetlbfs' on new installs with DPDK enabled.
OVS will now run under group 'openvswitch' whether compiled with DPDK support
or not.
- OVS persistent state is now saved on /var/lib/openvswitch instead of
/etc/openvswitch for new installs.
