True, yocto has a lot of history with the assumption that every board even with common and compatible SoC's needs a specific machine configuration. I think this is a bit too old fashioned and would like to move towards generic and compatible builds where a single binary build works on a large number of instruction set compatible SoCs and boards. Thus I'd be happy to have qemu testing part of this and the hard coded assumptions of qemu configs to be removed or made optional so that they can be overwritten if needed. So patches welcome :) Cheers, -Mikko
