2.7.0
^^^^^

New Features

* Add new constant "BROADCAST_MAC" which has value
  "FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF" and represents broadcast MAC address.

* A new vnic type "vdpa" has been added to allow requesting port
  that utilize a vhost-vdpa offload. vhost-vdpa is simpler to vhost-
  user or kernel vhost offload but utilizes the newly added vdpa bus
  introduced in the Linux 5.7 kernel. vdpa interface can be
  implemented in software or hardware, when implemented in hardware
  they provide equivalent performance to sr-iov or hardware offloaded
  ovs while have two main advantages over both sriov and hardware
  offloaded ovs. Unlike the alternatives vhost-vdpa enable live
  migration of instance transparently and provides a standard virtio-
  net interface to the guest avoiding the need to install vendor
  specific drivers  in the guest.
