   * Added support for NVGRE, VXLAN and GENEVE filters in flow API.

+* **Added the Event Timer Adapter Library.**
+
+  The Event Timer Adapter Library extends the event-based model by introducing
+  APIs that allow applications to arm/cancel event timers that generate
+  timer expiry events. This new type of event is scheduled by an event device
+  along with existing types of events.
