+    The first hint using the new ``hints`` port attribute is the
+    ``ovs-tx-steering`` hint. The availability of this is marked
+    by the extension: ``port-hint-ovs-tx-steering``.  This hint is
+    specific to the ``openvswitch`` mechanism driver.  It enables
+    the control of Open vSwitch's Userspace Tx packet steering
+    feature. For details about the Open vSwitch feature please see:
+    https://docs.openvswitch.org/en/latest/topics/userspace-tx-steering/
+    The valid values for the ``hints`` attribute introduced by the 2nd
+    extension are:
+    ``{"openvswitch": {"other_config": {"tx-steering": "hash|thread"}}}``

+    Ports now have a ``hints`` attribute, in which backend specific
+    tuning options can be passed to Neutron. The availability of the
+    ``hints`` attribute is signaled by the ``port-hints`` extension.
+    The ``hints`` attribute is admin-only by default. Its value is a
+    dict, keyed by mechanism driver aliases. The possible values are
+    defined by the mechanism drivers. An admin user can ask for a
+    hint in a port create or update request. As the name suggests a
+    hint is not a demand - Neutron applies the hint when it can, but
+    it is free to ignore it, when it can't.
