[yocto] qemu EFI build failure

I tried to build a qemux86 EFI image, by setting:
- in my local.conf: IMAGE_FSTYPES += "live"
- in poly/meta/conf/machine/qemux86.conf: MACHINE_FEATURES += "efi"

The build gave me the following error:

Has anyone encountered the same error?  I'm not sure I set up the
correct configuration. Also, is there another way to append "efi" to
MACHINE_FEATURES rather than by modifying qemux86.conf?

Thanks in advance,
