ANN: cni-plugins 1.1.1 released, CNI 2.0 discussions.

[Casey Callendrello]

Hello, fellow CNI users,

We're happy to announce the release of CNI-plugins v1.1.1 (and v1.1.0). See below for the changelog. Pre-built binaries can be downloaded at https://github.com/containernetworking/plugins/releases/tag/v1.1.1

We're starting discussions as to what shape CNI 2.0 should take. Open questions include how to register plugins, how to define configuration, and whether or not to define a "configuration" as a first-class concept, with its own verbs. There is also a meta-question: how closely should CNI track Kubernetes? Kubernetes is the largest user of CNI, but by no means the only one. Discussion is taking place via the CNI 2.0 label. We welcome your participation, and will probably schedule a synchronous discussion in the coming weeks.

Anyways, back to v1.1.1:

v1.1.1 fixes a critical bug with the dhcp IPAM plugin.

v1.1.0 includes the following new features:

• firewall: support ingressPolicy=(open|same-bridge) for isolating bridges as in Docker (#584)
• dhcp ipam: support customizing dhcp options from CNI args (#670)
• Allow setting sysctls on a particular interface (#669)
• bridge: Add macspoofchk support (#639).

and bug fixes:

• portmap: fix bug that new udp connection deletes all existing conntrack entries (#705)
• portmap: fix checkPorts result when chain does not exist (#707)
• dhcp: fixed DHCP problem that broke when fast retry was added (#681)
• ipvlan: Send Gratuitous ARP after IPs are set (#675)

Thanks, as always, to our contributors and, especially, those who help review pull-requests. There's never enough time.

Cheers,

Casey "the other Casey" Callendrello
