Highlights are: * "Megaflows", an optimization that allows userspace to specify which flow fields were used to compute the results of the flow lookup. This allows for a major reduction in flow setups (the major performance bottleneck in Open vSwitch) without reducing flexibility. * Converting netlink dump operations to use RCU, allowing for additional parallelism in userspace. * Matching and modifying SCTP protocol fields. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
