+guest side with pci-bridge-seat
+-------------------------------
+
+Qemu version 2.4 and newer has a new pci-bridge-seat device which
+can be used instead of pci-bridge.  Just swap the device name in the
+qemu command line above.  The only difference between the two devices
+is the pci id.  We can match the pci id instead of the device path
+with a nice generic rule now, which simplifies the guest
+configuration:
+
+    [root@fedora ~]# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-qemu-pci-bridge-seat.rules
+    SUBSYSTEM=="pci", ATTR{vendor}=="0x1b36", ATTR{device}=="0x000a", \
+            TAG+="seat", ENV{ID_AUTOSEAT}="1"
+
+Patch with this rule has been submitted to upstream udev/systemd, was
+accepted and should be included in the next systemd release (222).
+So, if your guest has this or a newer version, multiseat will work just
+fine without any manual guest configuration.
+
 Enjoy!
