    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    • QEMU 8.2 adds a new “virtio-sound” device that implements capture and playback from inside a guest using the configured audio backend of the host machine.

    • A new VirtIO-GPU “Rutabaga” device that allows various abstractions of GPU and display virtualization.

    This VirtIO-GPU Rutabaga comes from the Android/CrosVM graphics stack and is intended for use with the Android Emulator on QEMU.

    QEMU documentation describes this as “virtio-balloon on steroids for Windows guests.”

    • QEMU’s 68k Macintosh Quadra 800 emulation can now boot MacOS 7.1, A/UX 3.0.1, Linux, and NetBSD 9.3.

    Plus support for 4K page sizes and other ongoing LoongArch enablement work.
