+  * qemu: Add support for launch security type s390-pv
+
+    Specifying s390-pv as launch security type in an s390 domain prepares for
+    running the guest in protected virtualization secure mode, also known as
+    IBM Secure Execution. This simplifies the definition and reduces the risk
+    of an incorrect definition, e.g. by forgetting to specify iommu=on on all
+    virtio devices.
