* **Improvements**
+ * Add ``vendor`` attribute for CPU models in domain capabilities
+
+ Users can now see the vendor of each CPU model in domain capabilities and
+ use it, e.g., for filtering usable CPU models based on host CPU vendor.
+
+ * virsh: Add ``--model`` option for ``hypervisor-cpu-baseline``
+
+ This is a shortcut for calling ``hypervisor-cpu-baseline`` with a single
+ CPU model and no additional features. It can be used for determining which
+ features block a particular CPU model from being usable.
+
+ * Improved documentation of CPU ``usable`` attribute in domain capabilities
+
* **Bug fixes**
+ * qemu: Disable all blocker features in CPU baseline
+
+ Three years ago QEMU renamed some CPU features (mostly those containing
+ an underscore). When such renamed feature was reported by QEMU as blocking
+ usability of a CPU model, we would fail to explicitly disable it when
+ creating a baseline CPU definition using this model. This bug did not have
+ any functional impact when the default ``check='partial'`` attribute was
+ used for guest CPU definition in domain XML, but it could have caused
+ failures to start a domain with ``check='full'`` in some cases.
