Bug Description

Developers from OpenVswitch have requested we update to the current stable release, 1.4.3. This version is a bug-fix only release for the 1.4 branch that contains the following changes:

8249ccc Declare the version as "1.4.3".
02978b5 datapath: Fix FLOW_BUFSIZE definition.
6467e95 datapath: Reset upper layer protocol info on internal devices.
196ba34 stp: port_no counter is off by one
865f22b bond: Tag flows according to their hash bucket, not just their slave.
8b74c55 ovs-ctl: Add support for newer name for Open vSwitch kernel module.
631ccac datapath: Relax set header validation.
e49ea3c flow: Correctly consider nw_frag_mask in some flow_wildcards_*() functions.
d6af664 Avoid implementation-defined strerror behaviour
21c9a7e ovs-ctl: Start the rest of Open vSwitch if loading brcompat module fails.
437f968 Fix race condition in parallel execution of "make install".
903c82f debian: Remove controller keys on openvswitch-controller package purge.
3d52c48 debian: Do not change iptables rules by default.
302a5e9 cfm: Always initialize CCM "internal_ms_x" extension field.
fdd80c3 datapath: Check gso_type for correct sk_buff in queue_gso_packets().
f266b3d debian: Remove obsolete advice to edit /etc/default/openvswitch-switch.
0f02cf2 debian: Add "netbase" dependency for /etc/protocols.
ef6f453 python: Call 'wait' methods correctly in jsonrpc and stream code.
b4c2d88 ovs-vswitchd: Call mlockall() from the daemon, not the parent or monitor.
cc8ccb5 lib: Do not assume sig_atomic_t is int.
7ea32ef debian: Make DKMS automatically build for running kernel.
fcb51b0 vlog: Avoid use-after-free in corner case.
0ada27a datapath: Check currect return value from skb_gso_segment()
b42c6f6 ofproto: Fix use after free in ofoperation_complete().

Debian will remain at 1.4.2 until they are out of freeze, so we'll be packaging the new upstream version in Ubuntu first. I've coordinated with the Debain maintainer and this seems sane . In addition to the upstream bugs this fixes, the current package carries a few patches that could be dropped by a 1.4.3 upload. Some Ubuntu packaging bugs would be squashed as well.

This isn't really a feature change, so no FFe would normally be needed. However, as we are going solo compared to Debian, i appreciate your diligence in the consideration.

Thanks.
