+# v18.0
+
+This release has been tracked through the [v18.0
+project](https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor/projects/21).
+
+### Experimental User Device (`vfio-user`) support
+
+Experimental support for running PCI devices in userspace via `vfio-user`
+has been included. This allows the use of the SPDK NVMe `vfio-user` controller
+with Cloud Hypervisor. This is enabled by `--user-device` on the command line.
+
+### Migration support for `vhost-user` devices
+
+Devices exposed into the VM via `vhost-user` can now be migrated using the live
+migration support. This requires support from the backend however the commonly
+used DPDK `vhost-user` backend does support this.
+
+### VHDX disk image support
+
+Images using the VHDX disk image format can now be used with Cloud Hypervisor.
+
+### Device pass through on MSHV hypervisor
+
+When running on the MSHV hypervisor it is possible to pass through devices from
+the host through to the guest (e.g with `--device`)
+
+### AArch64 for support `virtio-mem`
+
+The reference Linux kernel we recommend for using with Cloud Hypervisor now supports `virtio-mem` on AArch64.
+
+### Live migration on MSHV hypervisor
+
+Live migration is now supported when running on the MSHV hypervisor including
+efficient tracking of dirty pages.
+
+### AArch64 CPU topology support
+
+The CPU topology (as configured through `--cpu topology=`) can now be
+configured on AArch64 platforms and is conveyed through either ACPI or device
+tree.
+
+### Power button support on AArch64
+
+Use of the ACPI power button (e.g `ch-remote --api-socket=<API socket> power-button`) 
+is now supported when running on AArch64.
+
+### Notable bug fixes
+
+* Using two PTY outputs e.g. `--serial pty --console pty` now works correctly (#3012)
+* TTY input is now always sent to the correct destination (#3005)
+* The boot is no longer blocked when using a unattached PTY on the serial console (#3004)
+* Live migration is now supported on AArch64 (#3049)
+* Ensure signal handlers are run on the correct thread (#3069)
