+        <description>
+          While waiting for a write to disk to be finished, e.g. during save,
+          even simple operations like <code>virsh list</code> would be blocking
+          due to domain lock.  This is now resolved by unlocking the domain
+          in places where it is not needed.

+          qemu: Fix assignment of graphics ports after daemon restart
+        </summary>
+        <description>
+          This could be seen with newer kernels that have bug regarding
+          SO_REUSEADDR.  After libvirtd was restarted it could assign already
+          used address to new guests which would make them fail to start.  This
+          is fixed by marking used ports unavailable when reconnecting to
+          running QEMU domains.

+        <description>
+          When parsing an RPC message with file descriptors was interrupted and
+          had to restart, the offset of the payload was calculated badly causing
+          strange issues like not being able to find a domain that was not
+          requested.
