+          Multiqueue support for <code>virtio-blk</code> has been available

+          libvirt will now obtain the (dynamically allocated) RDP port number

+          wanting to use RDP at the same time.

+        <description>
+          On a host where numerous unique instances are executed per day, it's
+          quite possible that, even though each of the single log files are
+          fairly small, collectively the quantity and volume may add tens of
+          thousands of log files to the <code>/var/log/libvirt/qemu/</code>
+          directory. Removing the constraints that log have to be bigger than
+          100 KiB before they can be rotated solves the issue.

+          While it's reasonable to turn off client certificate validation,
+          as setting it up can be non-trivial, clients should always verify
+          the server certificate to avoid MITM attacks. However, libvirt was
