* dev-manual: Updates to the section on submitting changes to YPScott Rifenbark2017-06-221-21/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | I added detail to the procedure about pushing a change to a contrib directory and then requesting a pull using the scripts. More detailed with examples. Also, clarified some wording in the section about submitting a patch through email.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #11630] I changed the section heading for the section that describes how to make a change to the YP. It was passive.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #11630] The "Git" section in the dev-manual is really about concepts. There are a couple of examples that might or not might be allowed to ultimately stay. I have moved the section to the ref-manual. If those examples get replicated in the new dev-manual, I will update the "Git" section further. For now, however, these remain in this moved section.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #11630] The "Yocto Project Source Repositories" section is purely conceptual and thus does not belong in the reconstituted dev-manual, which is converting to a "how-to" manual. I have moved this section to the ref-manual under "The Yocto Project Development Environment" section. Moving the section affected several things. Three figures that where in the dev-manual were copied and moved to the figures folder of the ref-manual. This required deleting them from the dev-manual and adding them to the ref-manual. The makefile had to be edited to move those figures into the ref-manual and delete them from the latest version of the dev-manual in order for the tarball of files to be correct when the manuals are made. Links to anchors within the moved section had to be fixed in various manuals. Links to the main section "id" had to be fixed to point to the ref-manual manual.

* documentation: Re-org for "closer-look" chapterScott Rifenbark2017-06-221-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #11630] The ref-manual needs expansion for the old "closer-look" chapter. This chapter previously held a detailed look at what happens when a user uses the YP to develop something. Now, the chapter needs to also contain YP development environment concepts (e.g. open- source philosophy, etc.), which are coming from the dev-manual. Because of this, I renamed the "closer-look.xml" chapter to be "ref-development-environment.xml". I also renamed the larger section that was formerly the entire chapter into its own section named "Development Concepts". Both these changes caused a few links to break. I fixed all the links from within the various manuals so they would find appropriate targets. I did some re-writing for introductory material to introduce the new chapter and the section on "Development Concepts". A new file ("ref-development-environment.xml") was added by basically renaming the "closer-look.xml" chapter. And, the tracking for "closer-look.xml" was deleted.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changes covered several areas. Version 2.3 of the YP now supports recipe-specific sysroots and is not limited to machine-specific as was prior releases. Manual changes were as follows: dev-manual: "Sharing Files Between Recipes" - Wordings were changed to support the new functionality. ref-manual: do_prepare_recipe_sysroot task added to the list of tasks described in "Configuration and Compilation". ref-manual: Extensive re-write of the "staging.bbclass" section. ref-manual: Added a section to the build structure for build/tmp/work/tunearch/recipename/version/. This section breaks down the recipe-specific subdirectories used to create (stage) the sysroot. ref-manual: New section (entry) for the do_prepare_recipe_sysroot task in the task chapter. ref-manual: Added a variable glossary description for the SSTATE_SCAN_FILES variable. In addition to these changes, I sprinkled in a liberal amount of cross-referencing for the readers pleasure.

* dev-manual, ref-manual: Edits to the "Incrementing Binary Package" section.Scott Rifenbark2017-04-121-114/+170
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #10995] I applied some revisions to the related sections for incrementing a binary package version and revision sections. Mainly clarified terminology and pulled the sections into one single section head. I also cleaned up referencing to all these sections throughout the YP manual set (i.e. the ref-manual).

* dev-manual, ref-manual: Created new section on linear revision for packagesScott Rifenbark2017-04-121-5/+96
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #10995] For the dev-manual, I added a new section on incrementing package revision numbers that explains how the build system uses various variables to create linearly numbered revisions for packages. For the ref-manual, I cross-referenced into the new section from the AUTOSRC and SRCREV variables.

* dev-manual: Added section on using headers to interface with devicesScott Rifenbark2017-04-121-0/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #8596] Added a new section to describe the right way to use headers to interface to a device or custom Linux kernel API. Too often a user wants to modify the libc header file, which absolutely wrong. This new section provides some guidance.

* dev-manual, ref-manual: Added PACKAGE_WRITE_DEPS and concept supportScott Rifenbark2017-04-121-5/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #11274] When a post-installation or pre-installation script uses tools that have dependencies, you need to specify the tools using the new PACKAGE_WRITE_DEPS variable. I added this information at the end of the "Post Installtion Scripts" section in the dev-manual. I also added a new variable entry for the PACKAGE_WRITE_DEPS variable in the glossary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #10887] I placed a small paragraph at the end of the introduction to the "Performing Automated Runtime Testing" section that points into the new section on QA and testing infrastructure in the ref-manual.
