To exclude content from the rootfs, wic makes a copy (using hardlinks if possible) of the rootfs directory and associated pseudo db, then removes files & directories as needed. However if these files and directories are removed using the python functions os.remove and shutil.rmtree, the copied pseudo db will not be updated correctly. For files copied from the original rootfs, if hardlinks were used successfully when copying the rootfs this should mean that the relevant inodes can't be reused and so the risk of pseudo aborts should be avoided. However, this logic doesn't apply for directories (as they can't be hardlinked) or for files added via the '--include-path' argument (as they weren't present in the original rootfs) and so there remains some risk of inodes being reused and the pseudo db becoming corrupted. To fix this, use the 'rm' command under pseudo when removing files & directories from the copied rootfs to ensure that the copied pseudo db is updated.

QEMU Emulation Targets ====================== To simplify development, the build system supports building images to work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants: * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64) * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64) * PowerPC (qemuppc only) * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64) 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.
