Open Stack

We are pleased to announce the release of:

os_vif 1.1.0: A library for plugging and unplugging virtual interfaces
in OpenStack.

This release is part of the newton release series.

With package available at:

    https://pypi.python.org/pypi/os_vif

For more details, please see below.

1.1.0
^^^^^


New Features
************

* The ovs plugin has been extended to support vhost-user interfaces.
  vhost-user is a userspace protocol for high speed virtual networking
  introduced in qemu 2.1 and first supported in ovs 2.4 with dpdk 2.0

* The ovs plugin has been modified to ensure that the specified OVS
  bridge that the vif will be attached to has been created.  If the
  OVS bridge does not exist, it will be created with the proper
  datapath_type.


Bug Fixes
*********

* The OpenVSwitch plugin was registered with an entrypoint name of
  "ovs", but its describe method mistakenly reported that its name was
  "ovs_hybrid". The latter has been fixed to match the registered
  name.

* os-vif plugins were previously incorrectly registered in both the
  setup.py and setup.cfg. All plugin registration have been removed
  form the setup.py as they were not used and may have blocked
  registration of out of tree plugins.

* The ovs plugin now handles vifs of type VIFOpenVSwitch properly.
  Before, it would improperly create an extraneous linux bridge and
  veth pair attached to the target OVS bridge.
