* **Bug fixes**
+ * QEMU: iTCO watchdog made operational
+
+ The watchdog was always included when q35 machine type was used, but needed
+ an extra bit of configuration in order to be operational. This is now done
+ by default when running a QEMU domain with q35 machine type. This is not a
+ change in the guest ABI, but it is a guest visible behavior change since the
+ watchdog that did not fire before will now fire once used. To switch to the
+ previous behavior the watchdog action must be set to ``none``.
