* bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Updated "Task Checksums and Setscene" sectionuninative-1.9Scott Rifenbark2018-04-121-28/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [#YOCTO 12030] Updated the "Task Checksums and Setscene" section to provide a bit of user information around the bitbake-dumpsigs use that lets a user examine signatures and inputs that determine if a do_compile task is indeed supposed to be run. Added more explanation of how a user can examine signatures used to determine if a do_compile task is indeed supposed to be run.

We can keep this in the YP ref manual but in the bitbake manual that sentence should be removed.

* bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Rewrite dependency dot file generationScott Rifenbark2017-03-011-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The package-depends.dot and pn-depends.dot files are inaccurate, missing out key dependencies such those made via the [depends] flags. As such they can be misleading to the user. They mainly exist for historical reasons, coming from a time before we had task based execution. This commit removes the two dated file formats and replaces them with a recipe-depends.dot which is a flattened version of task-depends.dot. The old format files are removed if present so that the user can't get confused about why data might not match between files. The code is also rewritten to use 'with f: f.write()' syntax as is more commonly used now. Also update the docs to match the change.
