+      <p>SR-IOV support for NICs is implemented.  So far, we have only
+	tested with the Mellanox ConnectX-3 VF card, which works
+	despite some issues (Bug 216493: <a
+	  href="https://bugs.FreeBSD.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216493">https://bugs.FreeBSD.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216493</a>).</p>
+
+      <p>Updates for UEFI VMs (i.e.,  Hyper-V Generation 2 VM):</p>
+
+      <ol>
+	<li>After the loader issue (Bug 211746) is fixed, UEFI VMs can
+	  now boot with Secure Boot disabled;</li>
+
+	<li>A synthetic keyboard driver has been added.  Currently it
+	  is only in HEAD, but MFCs to stable/10 and stable/11 are
+	  planned to occur soon;</li>
+
+	<li>A SCSI DVD detection issue (Bug 218248) was fixed.
+	  Without the fix, the VM would fail to boot.</li>
