+          qemu: Allow concurrent access to monitor and guest agent
+        </summary>
+        <description>
+          Historically libvirt prevented concurrent accesses to
+          the qemu monitor and the guest agent. Therefore two
+          independent calls (one querying the monitor and the
+          other querying guest agent) would serialize which hurts
+          performance. The code was reworked to allow two
+          independent calls run at the same time.
