+ Remember original owners and SELinux labels of files
+ </summary>
+ <description>
+ When a domain is starting up libvirt changes DAC and
+ SELinux labels so that domain can access it. However,
+ it never remembered the original labels and therefore
+ the file was returned back to <code>root:root</code>.
+ With this release, the original labels are remembered
+ and restored properly.

+ network: Allow passing arbitrary options to dnsmasq
+ </summary>
+ <description>
+ This works similarly to the existing support for passing arbitary
+ options to QEMU, and just like that feature it comes with no
+ support guarantees.

+ nss: Report newer addresses first
+ </summary>
+ <description>
+ In some cases, a guest might be assigned a new IP address by DHCP
+ before the previous lease has expired, in which case the NSS plugin
+ will correctly report both addresses; many applications, however,
+ ignore all addresses but the first, and may thus end up trying to
+ connect using a stale address. To prevent that from happening, the
+ NSS plugin will now always report the newest address first.

+ </summary>
+ <description>
+ When the limit on the number of FDs is very high, closing all
+ unwanted FDs after calling <code>fork()</code> can take a lot of
+ time and delay the start of the child process. libvirt will now
+ use an optimized algorithm that minimizes such delays.
