Several architectures -are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants: +work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Our support and testing +is currently focused around the following primary architectures and machine +targets: * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64) * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64) -* PowerPC (qemuppc only) -* MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64) +* RISC-V (qemuriscv64) Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual. The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given in brackets. + +OpenEmbedded does also have support for PowerPC (qemuppc/qemuppc64), MIPS +(qemumips + qemumips64), qemuriscv32 and other less common targets but these +are not as widely tested.
