+        </summary>
+        <description>
+          We only ever test libvirt with GCC or CLang which provides a
+          GCC compatible compilation environment. Between them, these
+          compilers cover every important operating system platform,
+          even Windows.

+        </summary>
+        <description>
+          At present shared disks can be migrated with either readonly or
+          <code>cache=none</code>.  But <code>cache=directsync</code> should be
+          safe for migration, because both <code>cache=directsync</code> and
+          cache=none don't use the host page cache, and
+          <code>cache=direct</code> write through qemu block layer cache.

+          Libvirt was taught to handle VLAN change for running OVS interface.

+        <description>
+          Vcpu properties gathered from query-hotpluggable cpus need to be
+          passed back to qemu. As qemu did not use the node-id property until
+          now and libvirt forgot to pass it back properly (it was parsed but
+          not passed around) we did not honor this.

+        <description>
+          Libvirt starts qemu domains in separate Linux namespaces for a while
+          now. However, there were still some bugs lingering. For instance
+          libvirt did not know how to handle file based bind mounts.
