 ****************************************************************************
 
-- [QTBUG-32684] VID/PID for USB Huawei 3G Modem is returned properly now.
-
-- [QTBUG-32016] No "No such file or directory" error set after waitForReadyRead
-anymore.
-
-- [QTBUG-32017] Windows: Fixed the waitAnyEvent() method for the WAIT_FAILED
-handling.
-
-- [QTBUG-32018] The port name and product identifiers now work for more devices
-and scenarios on Windows.
-
-- [QTBUG-31964] The serial port enums are now properly tagged as Q_FLAGS and
-used so.
-
-- [QTBUG-31966] Support has been added for non-standard Qt header intallation
-folder (e.g. on Red Hat).
-
-- Added native serial port handle; it is now possible to do any custom operation
-if not supported by QtSerialPort.
-
-- [QTBUG-32680] Added API for handling the time out errors when waiting for read
-or write.
-
-- [QTBUG-33125] The generation of the forward headers now works with Qt 4 and
-Necessitas.
-
-- [QTBUG-33117] [QTBUG-33139] Fixed the compilation for Android with Qt 5. The
-command line enumerator seems to work.
-
-- Added support for BSD4 baud rates, i.e. not Unix compatible.
-
-- Linux: sysfs support was added for serial port information as a fallback for
-udev, but it is preferred to hard coded serial port node names.
-
-- [QTBUG-32173] Rewrote the documentation to more proper English than before,
-and also some change for more accurate content.
-
-- Added a new error enumeration value called "NotOpenError". This can be used
-for operation when the serial port is not open. This is also used internally
-now.
-
-- [QTBUG-33774] Document that the serial port parameters cannot be set before
-opening.
-
-- No more unnecessary syscalls (parameter settings, pinout signal query, etc) in the
-backend when the port is closed. This also means no improper errors are set
-accordingly.
-
-- Removed the QtGui linkage for the command line enumerator example, so it now
-links against QtCore and QtSerialPort only.
-
-- More warnings when doing operations that require the serial port to be open,
-but it is closed.
-
-- The deprecated QtAlgorithm usage is removed.
-
-- Some outputs in the examples are fixed to be more proper English; this
-includes mostly typo, but also some comprehensive changes.
-
-- New command line sync reader example available with screen shot and
-documentation.
-
-- New command line async reader example available with screen shot and
-documentation.
-
-- New command line sync writer example available with screen shot and
-documentation.
-
-- New command line async writer example available with screen shot and
-documentation.
-
-- [QTBUG-34329] Support added for loading udev at runtime rather than linking at
-compilation time.
-
-- The buildsystem now respects the configure run for Qt 5, i.e. packageconfig is
-not used for finding udev again.
-
-- [QTBUG-32563] Motorola IMX support was added when udev and sysfs are not
-present.
-
-- [QTBUG-34429] Mark the data error policy obsolete. End users should stop using
-this feature now. It may be removed later in Qt 6.X, and there is a warning now
-if it is used.
-
-- Support has been added for the hard-coded device enumeration backend to get
-information. Android uarts such as /dev/ttyHS* (High speed UART) and
-/dev/ttyHSL* (Low speed UART) are supported by that backend.
-
-- [QTBUG-34474] Replace the internal QTtyLocker with QLockFile from QtCore and a
-small convenience on top of it to comply with the locking directories lockdev
-also uses.
-
-- Support has been added for the hard-coded device enumeration backend to get
-information. /dev/ttyO* (native OMAP UART) is supported by that backend.
-
-- The lock file usage has been extended to support Android as there is no direct
-access to the usual Unix lock file system paths. The lock file is now placed
-into /data/local/tmp.
-
-- [QTBUG-35064] PCI support has been added to the sysfs backend on Linux to
-support the enumeration of such devices.
-
-- [QTBUG-35184] Mark the isValid() method in QSerialPortInfo deprecated because
-it has no common use case.
-
-- [QTBUG-35215] Mark the QSerialPort::Unknown* enumeration values in QSerialPort
-deprecated because it has no use case, and was added mistakenly. There is no
-such "standard" serial port behavior general for these as "unknown". It is an
-implementation detail for error reporting, and hence not recommended anymore.
