Hi Mark, Han, Numan, all,

According to our 2025 release calendar [0] we are supposed to branch for
25.03.0 tomorrow, February 7th.

AFAICT the current state of features/user-visible changes that were
posted for review before soft freeze and not yet merged to the main
branch is:

1. [ovs-dev] northd: Use lower priority for all src routes.
    
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/patch/[email protected]/
    - submitter: Han
    - reviews: acked by Dumitru
    - pending items: do we have confirmation from ovn-kubernetes
      (Tim in CC) that this change doesn't break any existing behavior?

2. [ovs-dev,v2] northd: Options to pass conntrack for stateless and LB.
    
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/patch/[email protected]/
    - submitter: Alexandra Rukomoinikova
    - reviews: clarification requested by Dumitru - not sure whether
      we need this new option or not

3. [ovs-dev,v4] ic: Fix vxlan encap mode.
    
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/patch/b7080e51b6a4b870500e1a6c468fb4ab7448f3f8.1738344059.git.lorenzo.bianc...@redhat.com/
    - submitter: Lorenzo Bianconi
    - reviews: Dumitru requested small changes; Vladislav to confirm this
      doesn't break any of their OVN-IC deployments with VXLAN

4. [ovs-dev,v4] northd: Add ipv6_{src, dst} to selection_fields column in the 
NB db.
    
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/patch/1069ee6128e088ba675ac35f95c97a52326c02c1.1738523443.git.lorenzo.bianc...@redhat.com/
    - submitter: Lorenzo Bianconi
    - reviews: Ilya reviewed v3, v4 needs another round of reviews

I plan to review/merge this today.


5. OVN Fabric integration. [v6]
    https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/list/?series=442795&state=*
    - submitter: Felix Huettner, Frode Nordahl
    - reviews: Dumitru, Lorenzo, Frode, Martin
    - pending items: v7 incoming; IMO it probably is in a good shape
      to be accepted this week

6. Advertise Routes for LB and NAT VIPs. [v3]
    https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/list/?series=442912&state=*
    - submitter: Martin Kalcok
    - reviews: Frode, Felix; I plan to review this today too
    - note: it's marked as RFC but that's only because it is built on
      top of the "OVN Fabric integration." series; IMO it has a good
      chance of getting merged too

7. [ovs-dev,v4] northd: Add LR option to commit all traffic.
    
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/patch/[email protected]/
    - submitter: Ales Musil
    - reviews: Han and Alin reviewed and tested v3
    - note: as this introduces a new knob it can't easily be accepted
      as bug fix, but this is a critical change required for:
      - user defined networks in ovn-kubernetes
      - HW offload in ovn-kubernetes

8. Spine-Leaf Logical Switch Topology. [v2]
    https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/list/?series=443071&state=*
    - submitter: Ilya Maximets
    - reviews: Mark
    - pending items: needs a follow up review, v1 seemed in good shape
      already.

V2 was posted, and I will review this today as well.


9. [ovs-dev] treewide: Introduce OVN overlay port mirroring support. [v3, I 
think]
    
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/patch/[email protected]/
    - submitter: Alexandra Rukomoinikova, Vladislav Odintsov
    - reviews: Ales reviewed v1
    - pending items: CI is failing, v4 is needed

I hope I didn't miss any other features that qualify for
25.03.0 acceptance.

A good part of the above is almost ready for merge, AFAICT
that's items: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8.

However, I'm really worried that we won't be able to get all this in
by end of day tomorrow.  Would it be an option to consider a slight
delay for the branching date, e.g., by one week?

I think a one week delay will allow us to conclude the reviews that are far along, so I'm fine with it. I think even with an extra week, some of the above may not make it in, though. And that's fine. There have been a *lot* of new features for 25.03, and punting some to 25.09 may be necessary.


Thanks,
Dumitru
