Known issues
Please list all patch series or bugs which need to be fixed for the release here. That way I can be sure I don't miss any when I'm rolling release candidates.
Also see Planning/2.7/Testing.
- commit 9c37146782e785 accidentally disabled a lot of the linux-user netlink support code, because the headers don't define IFLA_BR_* and IFLA_BRPORT_* as C preprocessor constants, so #ifdef IFLA_BRPORT_ID etc don't do what you might hope
Fixed in rc3
- Doesn't build on x86 OpenBSD or NetBSD. (Patch on list)
- Slirp code doesn't build on OpenBSD (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1613133)
- Broken build of virtio-gpu if 'log' trace backend is not enabled (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-08/msg01252.html)
- Regression broken TLS support with chardevs (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-08/msg02824.html)
Fixed in rc2
wxx: Truncate files used for character devices
Will not be fixed for 2.7
