Let me preface this with stating the obvious: documentation on
QoS in OVS is very sparse. This is all based on my observation
and OVS codebase analysis.
For the following QoS setting:
<bandwidth>
<inbound average="512" peak="1024" burst="32"/>
</bandwidth>
the following QoS setting is generated into OVS (NB, our XML
values are in KiB/s, OVS has them in bits/s):
# ovs-vsctl list qos
_uuid : a087226b-2da6-4575-ad4c-bf570cb812a9
external_ids : {ifname=vnet1, vm-id="7714e6b5-4885-4140-bc59-2f77cc99b3b5"}
other_config : {burst="262144", max-rate="8192000", min-rate="4096000"}
queues : {0=655bf3a7-e530-4516-9caf-ec9555dfbd4c}
type : linux-htb
from which the following topology is generated:
# for i in qdisc class; do tc -s -d -g $i show dev vnet1; done
qdisc htb 1: root refcnt 2 r2q 10 default 0x1 direct_packets_stat 0 ver 3.17 direct_qlen 1000

Sent 2186 bytes 16 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
Long story short, the default class (1:) for an OVS interface has
average and peak set exactly as requested. But since it's nested
under another class (1:fffe), it can borrow unused bandwidth. And
the parent is set to have rate = ceil = peak from our XML. From
[1]: htb_tc_install() calls htb_parse_qdisc_details__() which
sets: 'hc->min_rate = hc->max_rate;' and then calls
htb_setup_class_(..., tc_make_handle(1, 0xfffe), tc_make_handle(1, 0), &hc);
to set up the top parent class.
In other words - the interface is set up to so that it can always
consume 'peak' bandwidth and there is no way for us to set it up
differently. It's too late to deny setting 'peak' different to
'average' at XML validation phase so do the next best thing -
throw a warning, just like we do in case <bandwidth/> is set for
an unsupported <interface/> type.

Domain capabilities include information about support for various
devices and models.
Panic devices are not included in the output which means that management
applications need to include the logic for choosing the right device
model or request a default model and try defining such a domain.
Add reporting of panic device models into the domain capabilities based
on the logic in qemuValidateDomainDefPanic() and also report whether
panic devices are supported based on whether at least one model is
supported. That way consumers of the domain capability XML can
differentiate between libvirt not reporting the panic device models or
no model being supported.

The support for the 'sgio' attribute for SCSI-backed devices was dropped
as there wasn't really ever any upstream support for it.
The docs do state that support for this depends on the hypervisor
itself, but we can be more clear that there is no hypervisor which does
support it.
There is also a suggestion to use 'sgio' instead of 'rawio' as being
more "secure" but since it no longer works drop this suggestion.

This reverts commit 42ab0148dd11727f7e3fd31dce4485469af290d5.
This patch was supposed to fix the checksum of dhcp response packets
by setting it to 0 (because having a non-0 but incorrect checksum was
causing the packets to be droppe on FreeBSD guests).
Early testing was positive, but after the patch was pushed upstream
and more people could test it, it turned out that while it fixed the
dhcp checksum problem for virtio-net interfaces on FreeBSD and
OpenBSD, it also *broke* dhcp checksums for the e1000 emulated NIC on
*all* guests (but not e1000e).
So we're reverting this fix and looking for something more universal
to be included in the next release.

The docs for submitting a patch describe using your "Legal Name" with
the Signed-off-by line.
In recent times, there's been a general push back[1] against the notion
that use of Signed-off-by in a project automatically requires / implies
the use of legal ("real") names and greater awareness of the downsides.
Full discussion of the problems of such policies is beyond the scope of
this commit message, but at a high level they are liable to marginalize,
disadvantage, and potentially result in harm, to contributors.
TL;DR: there are compelling reasons for a person to choose distinct
identities in different contexts & a decision to override that choice
should not be taken lightly.
A number of key projects have responded to the issues raised by making
it clear that a contributor is free to determine the identity used in
SoB lines:
* Linux has clarified[2] that they merely expect use of the
contributor's "known identity", removing the previous explicit
rejection of pseudonyms.
* CNCF has clarified[3] that the real name is simply the identity
the contributor chooses to use in the context of the community
and does not have to be a legal name, nor birth name, nor appear
on any government ID.
Since we have no intention of ever routinely checking any form of ID
documents for contributors[4], realistically we have no way of knowing
anything about the name they are using, except through chance, or
through the contributor volunteering the information. IOW, we almost
certainly already have people using pseudonyms for contributions.
This proposes to accept that reality and eliminate unnecessary friction,
by following Linux & the CNCF in merely asking that a contributors'
commonly known identity, of their choosing, be used with the SoB line.
