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.

- update to 2.17.2:
- 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.

- fix python3 requires (bsc#1196758)
- Added install-ovsdb-tools.patch to install ovsdb tools required
for building OVN
- Enable multiple python3 flavor subpackages on Tumbleweed / Factory
- Update OVS to version 2.17.0
* Userspace datapath:
* Optimized flow lookups for datapath flows with simple match criteria.
* New per-interface configuration knob 'other_config:tx-steering'.
* Removed experimental tag for PMD Auto Load Balance.
* New configuration knob 'other_config:n-offload-threads' to change the
number of HW offloading threads.
* DPDK:
* EAL argument --socket-mem is no longer configured by default upon
start-up. If dpdk-socket-mem and dpdk-alloc-mem are not specified,
DPDK defaults will be used.
* EAL argument --socket-limit no longer takes on the value of --socket-mem
by default. 'other_config:dpdk-socket-limit' can be set equal to
the 'other_config:dpdk-socket-mem' to preserve the legacy memory
limiting behavior.
* EAL argument --in-memory is applied by default if supported.
* Add support for DPDK 21.11.
* Forbid use of DPDK multiprocess feature.
* Add support for running threads on cores >= RTE_MAX_LCORE.
* Python: For SSL support, the use of the pyOpenSSL library has
been replaced with the native 'ssl' module.
* OVSDB:
* Python library for OVSDB clients now also supports faster

- 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).
