* overview-manual: Added a link to the do_patch task.Scott Rifenbark2018-05-241-2/+3
| | | | | | | (From yocto-docs rev: 934de6a59cef6a7b80530de1ccbe7006bb196238) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
* overview-manual: Updated "Patching" section.Scott Rifenbark2018-05-241-11/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This section presents a deep dive into the patching phase of the build process. I removed the vague "apply=yes" reference and added more references for the reader to read and learn about patching. The bit about the SRC_URI parameters (i.e. "apply") is going to be covered in the do_patch documentation since that is the task that handles that stuff.

| | | | | | | | | | The paragraph at the end of the section about the file hierarchies is better cast as a note. (From yocto-docs rev: 4e8a33be61ea1ea5db12fc5fc97832393213fb5d) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
* overview-manual: Updated the "patching.png" figureScott Rifenbark2018-05-241-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The figure had a bad "PN" variable being used in the "S" directory. This needed to be changed to "BPN".

* overview-manual, mega-manual: Updated source-fetching.png figureScott Rifenbark2018-05-241-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The figure was incorrect. Replaced the PN variable with BPN for the "S" directory. (From yocto-docs rev: 440edcdae932a83b6c32b51e85d97178a77b4bed) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
* overview-manual: Updated "Source Fetching" section.Scott Rifenbark2018-05-241-32/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | I scrubbed through this section and provided much better explanations of the inside workings of BitBake fetching source with building recipes. During that, I fixed an error where the PN variable was being used rather than the BPN variable.

| | | | | | | | | | | Updated the layer-input.png and source-input.png figures. Had to trim them so they were tighter in the figure. Also, updated some context in the source-input.png figures.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | The "Metadata, Machine Configuratrion, and Policy Configuration" section discusses the three types of layers fed into the OpenEmbedded build system workflow figure. I updated the figures and text supporting this discussion. The figure had to be moved to the mega-manual/figures folder also.

| | | | | | | | | | | I removed the less than pretty build process figure and swapped in the more aesthetically pleasing one. Also, am refering to the figure as the "general workflow figure".

| | | | | | | | | | This version of the figure was not as cool looking as the other version, which is preferred. I have removed it.

* overview-manual: Bolstered the "Layers" section in the concepts chapter.Scott Rifenbark2018-05-241-14/+31
| | | | | | | | | | This section was really sparse for being in the concepts chapter of this manual. I added some more text to it.

* overview-manual: Updates to "Components" section.Scott Rifenbark2018-05-241-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | I changed the "Metadata (Recipes)" title to simply "Recipes". It is less confusing since the term "Metadata" is in general recipes, classes, and configurations. Provdided a few small edits elsewhere in the section.

* overview-manual: Changed build workflow titleScott Rifenbark2018-05-242-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The section titled "Development Concepts" is really mis-titled. It is more about the OpenEmbedded Build System. So, I renamed the section "OpenEmbedded Build System Concepts." There were a couple links all within the overview-manual. No other place in the YP doc set linked to that heading.
