Please see the > original QEMU 1.2.0 release announcement [1] for details. To be more precise about the kvm-specific enhancements: The only major difference is now PCI passthrough. Beyond that, there are smaller differences like old special command-line switches (for which upstream equivalents exist), some adjustments that allow migration from older qemu-kvm versions (cannot be merged upstream), and the test device for kvm unit tests. That's it. IOW: Anyone who can reboot his/her guests for an upgrade and doesn't depend on PCI passthrough can safely use upstream QEMU 1.2.
