+        <description>
+          Skip the liveness and capability checks when redefining checkpoints as
+          we don't need qemu interactions to update the metadata.

+        <description>
+          Daemons now support <code> --timeout 0 </code> which suppresses daemon
+          killing after given time of inactivity.

+        <description>
+          This option prevents misbehaviours on guest if a QEMU 9pfs export
+          contains multiple devices, due to the potential file ID collisions
+          this otherwise may cause.

+        <description>
+          When using shared resources from embed driver (e.g. hugepages,
+          machined, etc.) libvirt now generates an unique handler that is not
+          conflicting with other embed drivers or system or session daemons.

+        <description>
+          Libvirt now properly detects Cascadelake-Server and Skylake-Server

+        </summary>
+        <description>
+          When using namespaces, libvirt was unable to restore a domain from a
+          block device because libvirt tried to relabel the device inside the
+          namespace while QEMU was given FD to the block device in the host.

+          Libvirt no long assumes TCG is always available. It now detects
+          whether QEMU supports TCG and reports it accordingly.
