By default, this list includes the value of MACHINE. You can extend MACHINEOVERRIDES to add extra overrides that should apply to a machine. For example, all machines emulated in QEMU (e.g. qemuarm, qemux86, and so forth) include a file named meta/conf/machine/include/qemu.inc that prepends the following override to MACHINEOVERRIDES: MACHINEOVERRIDES =. "qemuall:" This override allows variables to be overriden for all machines emulated in QEMU, like in the following example from the connman-conf recipe: SRC_URI_append_qemuall = "file://wired.config \ file://wired-setup \ " The underlying mechanism behind MACHINEOVERRIDES is simply that it is included in the default value of [OVERRIDES].
