Mappings#
mappings describes an architecture mapping between the architectures from those used in Incus and those used by the distribution.
These mappings are useful if you for example want to build a x86_64 image but the source tarball contains amd64 as its architecture.
mappings:
architectures: <map>
architecture_map: <string>
It’s possible to specify a custom map using the architectures field.
Here’s an example of a custom mapping:
mappings:
architectures:
i686: i386
x86_64: amd64
armv7l: armhf
aarch64: arm64
ppc: powerpc
ppc64: powerpc64
ppc64le: ppc64el
The mapped architecture can be accessed via Image.ArchitectureMapped in the code or image.architecture_mapped in the definition file.
There are some preset mappings which can be used in the architecture_map field.
Those are:
