* ref-manual, dev-manual: Edits to runtime package management section.Scott Rifenbark2013-10-081-170/+243
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These changes modify the patch sent by Trevor that essentially re-wrote this section. My edits were for consistency only and style of the book. No technical information or flow was altered. I did rename the section to be active to match the other package related sections. This caused the link in the ref-manual in the classes chapter to have to be updated.

* dev-manual: Patch applied to runtime package management.Trevor Woerner2013-10-081-150/+321
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trevor Woerner's patch as submitted with no alterations. This patch rewrites the entire section on setting up runtime package management. The section will need to be edited but that will be a separate exercise. This commit captures the raw patch. Note: one external link in the doc set broken after application of the patch because a "section id" tag was changed by the patch. I am leaving that fix to a separate commit.

* bsp-guide, dev-manual: Updated for 3.10 default kernelScott Rifenbark2013-10-012-33/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | YP 1.5 default kernel is 3.10. This is a change from 3.8 in the previous release. This change affected several areas of the documentation. 1. The BSP Guide had a crownbay BSP structure that did not account for the new default. 2. The yocto-bsp tool output still asked for the 3.8 kernel as the default. 3. The recipes-bsp section had 3.8 used and had some bad listings that had to be changed. 4. The recipes-graphics section had 3.8 used and also had some stuff supporting two versions of the graphics (emgd and noemgd). I had to pull the emgd stuff. 5. There were miscellaneous spots in the dev-manual that were referencing 3.8 as the default kernel. Particularly the list that shows what kernel repositories we have. That needed updating.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #5037] The information to fix this bug was very similar to some "best practices" and "recommendations" information that was currently buried in a section that described how to create a layer. So, since the new information for this bug fix increased the amount of information significantly, I have pulled out the existing "recommendations" and "best practices" information and combined it with this new information and placed it in its own section dedicated to just that. The information still resides in the main section that introduces and discusses layers and their creation. This is a first draft of the section. It is under review.

* documentation: Added the memory-resident BitBake featureScott Rifenbark2013-09-122-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main changes are captured in a new section devoted to the oe-init-build-env-memres script within the ref-structure.xml file and in the variables.xml file in a BBSERVER variable entry in the glossary. All other changes were necessary to integrate the new functionality into areas where running the setup script are discussed. Before this feature, there was a single setup script (oe-init-build-env). Consequently, wordings and such were designed exclusively for this single method. With the introduction of a second possible method to initialize the build environment, tweaks to many sections were needed. Beside the wording tweaks, appropriate cross-referencing was also needed. All these changes cover the integration of the new feature.

* dev-manual: Updated wording about GitScott Rifenbark2013-05-311-54/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I removed the statement saying that checking out a Git repository is a backup of the repo. Technically, that is not true. It would be more of a clone operation. The statement was superfluous anyway so I decided to remove it altogether.
