2.2.0
^^^^^


Upgrade Notes
*************

* os-vif now uses the "native" ovsdb driver instead of "vsctl"
  driver. This reduces the number of privileged call that os-vif need
  to make and generally improves plugging performance. In future
  release the "vsctl" backend will be removed.


Deprecation Notes
*****************

* The "vsctl" ovsdb driver is now deprecated for removal. The
  default ovsdb interface has now been updated to "native". This will
  use the ovs python binding instead of invoking the "ovs-vsctl" CLI.
  The "native" backend both outperforms the "vsctl" backend and
  require no elevated privileges to configure the ovsdb. This both
  improves security and reduces plug and unplug time.
