+        <description>
+          QEMU VMs that depend on platform serial devices can now use
+          QEMU's <code>-chardev</code> option, which enables access to
+          advanced features like log file configuration. This applies
+          to the default serial devices for arm, aarch64, and some ppc
+          configurations.
