+  * qemu: Core Scheduling support
+
+    To avoid side channel attacks, the Linux kernel allows creating groups of
+    processes that trust each other and thus can be scheduled to run on
+    hyperthreads of a CPU core at the same time. This is now implemented for
+    QEMU domains too (see ``sched_core`` knob in qemu.conf), although not
+    enabled by default, just yet.

   * Add ``vendor`` attribute for CPU models in domain capabilities
