Instead of storing release notes as XML and then converting them
to HTML and ASCII at build time using XSLT and a custom script,
we can use reStructuredText as both the source and ASCII
representation and generate HTML from it using the same tooling
we already use for the rest of the documentation.

+================
+libvirt releases
+================
+
+This is the list of official releases for libvirt, along with an overview of
+the changes introduced by each of them.
+
+For a more fine-grained view, use the `git log`_.
+
+
+v6.5.0 (unreleased)
+===================
+
+* **New features**
+
+* **Improvements**
+
+* **Bug fixes**
+
+
+v6.4.0 (2020-06-02)
+===================
+
+* **New features**
+
+ - qemu: Add support for pvscsi controllers
+
+ pvscsi is the VMware paravirtualized SCSI controller, which has been
+ supported in QEMU for a number of years.
+
+ - cpu: Report model information for ARM CPUs
+
+ ``virsh capabilities`` will now include information about the host CPU when
+ run on ARM machines.
+
+* **Improvements**
+
+ - qemu: stricter validation for disk type='lun'
+
+ The 'lun' type is meant for SCSI command passthrough, which can't be
+ achieved if qemu's block layer features are used. Disk type='lun' is now
+ allowed only when the format is 'raw' and no other block layer features are
+ requested.
+
+* **Bug fixes**
+
+ - qemu: fixed regression in network device hotplug with new qemu versions
+
+ Starting from QEMU-5.0 it's required to conform to strict schema when
+ hotplugging network devices. Libvirt didn't conform to the schema so in
+ versions prior to 6.4.0 network device hotplug fails in certain cases. This
+ version fixes it and adds stricter testing to prevent further issues.
+
+ - remote: Look up libxl driver correctly
+
+ This makes ``xen://`` connection URIs usable in split daemon mode.
+
+ - systemd: Start libvirtd after firewalld/iptables services
+
+ This solves an issue where iptables rules and chains created by libvirtd
+ would get removed by a service started after it.
+
+ - network: Re-create iptables chains on firewalld restart
+
+ firewalld resets all iptables rules and chains on restart, and this
+ includes deleting those created by libvirt.
+
[...]
+
+v2.5.0 (2016-12-04)
+===================
+
+* **New features**
+
+ - shmem: Add support for additional models
+
+ The shmem device can now utilize QEMU's ivshmem-plain and ivshmem-doorbell,
+ more modern versions of ivshmem.
+
+ - vbox: Add VirtualBox 5.1 support
+
+ - libssh: New transport
+
+ The new libssh transport allows one to connect to a running libvirtd via
+ SSH, using the libssh library; for example: ``qemu+libssh://server/system``
+ .
+
+ - vhost-scsi: Add support scsi_host hostdev passthrough
+
+ Add the capability to pass through a scsi_host HBA and the associated LUNs
+ to the guest.
+
+ - Allow debugging of gluster volumes in qemu
+
+ Users can now enable debug logging for native gluster volumes in qemu using
+ the "gluster_debug_level" option in qemu.conf
+
+ - Pre-allocate memory slots for memory hotplug
+
+ Slot numbers for memory devices are now automatically allocated and thus
+ persistent. In addition slot numbers can be specified without providing a
+ base address, which simplifies user configuration
+
+ - qemu: Express devices will be placed on PCIe bus by default
+
+ For machine types that use a PCI Express root bus (e.g. x86_64/Q35 and
+ aarch64/virt), any unaddressed PCI device that is an Express device (all
+ virtio-1.0 devices, e1000e, nec-xhci, vfio assigned devices) will be placed
+ on an Express controller (i.e. a pcie-root-port) instead of a legacy PCI
+ controller (i.e. pci-bridge) with the root ports added as needed.
+
+* **Improvements**
+
+ - docs: Better documentation for migration APIs and flags
+
+ - vbox: Address thread safety issues
+
+ - virsh: Add support for passing an alternative persistent XML to migrate
+ command
+
+ - vhostuser: Allow hotplug of multiqueue devices
+
+ - NEWS: Switch to an improved format
+
+ List user-visible changes instead of single commits for a better high-level
+ overview of differences between libvirt releases.
+
+ - website: Modernize layout and branding
+
+ The libvirt website looked very cluttered and outdated; it has now been
+ completely overhauled, resulting in a design that's better organized and
+ more pleasant to look at.
+
+* **Bug fixes**
+
+ - vz: Fix migration in P2P mode
+
+ - Forbid newline character in names of some libvirt objects
+
+ - Fix compilation on macOS
+
+
+Older libvirt releases didn't have proper release notes: if you are interested
+in changes between them, you should check out docs/news-\*.html or the full git
+log (see instructions in ChangeLog).

-
- This file will be processed to produce both HTML and plain text versions
- of the release notes.
-
- Keep the style consistent with existing entries as much as possible.
-
- Each change should be documented by a short, one-sentence summary, which
- should fit in a single line and should not contain any formatting tags.
-
- You can optionally add a description if you feel like the summary alone is
- not enough to document the change accurately. The description may contain
- a <code> tag for switching to non-proportional font. No other tags are
- allowed.
-
- Lines should be kept under 80 columns, and should not exceed 100 columns.

- This file is validated against docs/news.rng schema.

- qemu: Express devices will be placed on PCIe bus by default
- </summary>
- <description>
- For machine types that use a PCI Express root bus
- (e.g. x86_64/Q35 and aarch64/virt), any unaddressed PCI
- device that is an Express device (all virtio-1.0 devices,
- e1000e, nec-xhci, vfio assigned devices) will be placed on
- an Express controller (i.e. a pcie-root-port) instead of a
- legacy PCI controller (i.e. pci-bridge) with the root ports
- added as needed.
