Although dns host records are stored in a separate configuration file that is reread by dnsmasq when it receives a SIGHUP, the txt and srv records are directly in the dnsmasq .conf file which can't be reread after initial dnsmasq startup. This means that if an srv or txt record is modified in a network config, libvirt needs to restart the dnsmasq process rather than just sending a SIGHUP. This was pointed out in a question in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=988718 , but no separate BZ was filed.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
