+
+ - Improved the documentation:
+   * [QTBUG-45391] Fixed the examples link.
+   * [QTBUG-43810] Improved the references to the readyRead() signal for
+     some examples.

+   * Added enumeration of virtual tty0tty devices, which are provided by the
+     http://sourceforge.net/p/tty0tty/wiki/Home/ driver.
+   * Fixed detection of 8250 serial port types with the udev backend.
+   * [QTBUG-50223] Now it enumerates the ttyTHSx devices, which are provided
+     by the 'Tegra Jetson TK1' board, when no udev or sysfs backends are
+     available.
+
+ - QSerialPort:
+   * Added handling of the ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND error code on Windows, which
+     now is interpreted as QSP::DeviceNotFoundError.

+     divisor is not found.
