The native ovsdb backend was added in stein with the intent of making it the default in train and removing the vsctl backend in ussuri. The default was never changed and the deprecation was not done so this change now does both. Change-Id: Iaeeb7eaa656611b3ae571c391d51fcbfd2b59670

deprecations:
|
|
- |
|
|
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.
|
|
upgrade:
|
|
- |
|
|
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.
