This release has been tracked in our roadmap
project
as iteration
v39.0. The following user visible changes have been made:

Variable Sizing of PCI Apertures for Segments

It is now possible to use --pci-segment to adjust the aperture size that
devices 32-bit and 64-bit PCI device BARs will be allocated from. Previously
the address space was equally distributed across all the segments which may
leave insufficient space for devices that require a large 32-bit space. With
this change the weighting per segment can be adjusted. (#6387)

Direct Booting with bzImages

Support for directly booting Linux from bzImages has been added.(#6200)

Support for NVIDIA GPUDirect P2P Support

The x_nv_gpudirect_clique option was added to --device to allow the
configuration of device P2P support with NVIDIA GPUs. (#6235)

Guest NMI Injection Support

A new API endpoint and ch-remote option added for injecting an NMI into the
guest. (#6047)
