+- Multiple improvements to lib/igt_kms (Robert Foss)
+
+- lib/igt_aux: Framework for measuring latency in raising signals (Chris

+
+- tests/kms_chv_cursor_fail: Run the tests with fewer steps
+(Maarten Lankhorst)
+
+- lib/intel_chipset: Add more Kabylake PCI IDs and removed PCI IDs that are no

+constrains on hang detection (igt/gem_reset_stats) (Mika Kuoppala)
+
+- Added tests/kms_invalid_dotclock, a test that makes sure every modeset gets
+rejected by the kernel if the requested dotclock is beyond the hardware
+capabilities (Ville Syrjälä)
