Re: QEMU Size Increase from Yocto Thud to Zeus

Yes, look at the PACKAGECONFIGs and setting QEMU_TARGETS.
Does it mean that with the local.conf line:

# enable,disable,depends,rdepends
#
PACKAGECONFIG[qemu] = "--with-qemu,--without-qemu,qemu,"

The QEMU is completely removed (this is all that needs to be done, or...)?

Thank you,

Thanks for the clarification, yes I am installing QEMU in my image. Is there some way that we can disable the additional architectures and streamline the size ?

Thanks

Qemu did get larger as it is built with more architectures enabled,
but unless you're installing it in your image it won't make a
difference.

Hi Experts,

I am upgrading my Linux from Yocto Thud to Zeus (5.4 Kernel) . After building I could see a significant increase in the size of the image.
On checking with buildhistory enabled, I could see that qemu has nearly doubled in size.

Thud (4.19) - 223084 KiB qemu
Zeus (5.4) - 474757 KiB qemu

Is this size increase expected or are there some additional configs that might have been added as a part of the upgrade ?

Appreciate your help.

TIA,
Aashik
