[3.4.4-2]
- Added extra checks to NFS server configuration handling
code to prevent code from making duplicate attempts in
NFS server configuration.
In newer 'nfs-utils' rpms the 'exportfs' utility returns
error on attempt to unexport path that was not previously
exported.

[3.4.4-1]
- Update version for 3.4.4 errata

[3.4.3-13]
- Change VXLAN underlying interface name from bond2 to pca_tun to reduce conflict.
This makes bond2.4090 pca_tun.4090. [bug 25767206]

[3.4.3-12]
- Add XML RPC API to add/delete VXLAN interfaces on top of physical,bonds,and VLAN interfaces.
VXLAN interface names created are of the form (vxlanX, like vxlan5, vxlan400 ...etc)
Add network discovery for VXLAN. VXLAN interfaces show up in the discover as any
other other interface but with names like ( ).
Network discovery does not return bond2.4090 because it the base line interface for PCA.
Change the MTU to 1550 of the underlying interfaces so that the payload of the VXLAN is 1500.
IF the MTU of the underlying interface is 9000, then the payload of the VXLAN is 1850. MTU > 9000
is not supported by the interfaces. [bug 25767206]

[3.4.3-11]
- Make ovs-agent-rpc run with newer python and run anywhere
From 2.7.9, python will do SSL host verification by default. Running
ovs-agent-rpc with newer python will get error:
$ ./ovs-agent-rpc -s https://oracle:oracle@ovs207:8899 discover_server

Attached patch makes ovs-agent-rpc run with newer python. Also try to
import system xmlrpclib if agent modified one is not available. This
will enable ovs-agent running anywhere.

[3.4.3-10]
- For the sake of consistency in making NFS repo mounts on
OVM server replicated code logic from 'osc-oracle-generic'
rpm package. Thus both code paths involved in NFS repo mounts
creation on the server will produce consistent results.

[3.4.3-9]
- The 'ioctl' system call truncates infiniband interface
MAC address information to 6 bytes. To address the issue,
new 'get_device_mac_addr' function is implemented, which
retrieves MAC address information from 'sysfs' runtime
data.

[3.4.3-8]
- Fix proxy override order
Before this patch, if users have default proxy in /etc/ovs-agent/agent.ini:
[network]
proxy=http://192.168.140.4:8888
and passing in a proxy at the same time, e.g.:
import_template('0004fb00000300009b6c0ad10c5740d8',
'0004fb000014000064451f7833aead04',
['http://example.com/file'],
{'proxies': {'http': 'http://proxy.example.com:80'}})
then the default proxy (http://192.168.140.4:8888) will be used, which is not correct.
After this patch, the user passed in proxy (http://proxy.example.com:80) will be used.
