| | | | | | | | | | | | In the "runqemu Command-Line Options" section there is a bulleted list showing options you can provide. The "MACHINE" option lists valid values and listed "qemux86" twice in the list. I removed one of them.

* dev-manual, ref-manual: Image format implementation changesScott Rifenbark2017-09-221-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently a number of changes have happened on the implementation side of some image formats, and a few have been renamed. The u-boot image signing code is now always available and no longer in a stand-alone file. The vmdk/mdi/qcow2 images have been removed and are now just a conversion type that is applied to wic images.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #11630] I took the section that described how to use a pre-built kernel and run it through QEMU out. This is basically a QEMU usage section and is not in that area. There were some QEMU speed up items suitable for the QEMU concepts section in the ref-manual. I put those in that area.

I took the reference information out and moved it to the ref-manual into a new section in the second chapter, "Using YP".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

These had to be individually fixed. Discovered two unresolved references that were a consequence of moving that section to the ref-manual. These were fixed as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #11630] Reorganized the way the information about entering bugs using Bugzilla is arranged in the documentation set. The dev-manual now has a section that is purely procedural and steps the user through the process of logging a new bug in the Bugzilla system. The ref-manual has a conceptual section that introduces the YP implementation of Bugzilla by simply telling the user what it is and what what its purpose is.

* yocto-project-qs, ref-manual: Added note for "resources temporarily ↵Scott Rifenbark2017-01-111-0/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unavailable" error Fixes [YOCTO #10818] There is a weird and intermittant error that can occur on any given distribution that has a 4.3+ Linux kernel and a version 228+ systemd. The error happens during an initial build of an image and indicates that resources are unavailable. Investigation determines that resources are available. The combination of the kernel and the systemd in a distro is causing issues when a distro is upgraded. yocto-project-qs: I added a note in the two areas where the user is stepped through the bitbake process to build an image. The note mentions the possibility of the error, the host configuration situation, and a couple work-arounds, which are to reboot the machine or to set the "DefaultTaskMax" systemd parameter to "infinity". ref-manual: Added the same note in the "Building an Image" section.

* yocto-project-qs and others: Rewrite of the QSScott Rifenbark2015-07-281-3/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was a complete re-write of the YP Quick Start in an attempt to streamline it, remove unecessary detail, and make it flow better with the examples. In doing so, many manuals were affected due to section headings being renamed, information being moved, etc. Here is a list of the changes by manual: Makefile - Removed two figures from TARFILE list for the yocto-project-qs. Added building-an-image.png to the ref-manual TARFILE list. Added using-a-pre-build-image.png to the adt-manual TARFILE list. Repositioned 'eclipse' in the adt-manual TARFILE list. adt-manual: Fixed a cross-reference so that it goes to the new 'Building Images' section that is within the YP QS. Added new section 'Example Using Pre-Build Binaries and QEMU' to hold the information that was formerly in YP QS. dev-manual: Removed a cross-reference into the YP QS that promised how to configure the most efficent build. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'The Packages' to 'The Build System Packages'. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Building an Image' to 'Building Images'. Changed a text reference from the YP QS to the adt-manual. Moved the bit about getting YP files by using the YP website from the YP QS to the dev-manual. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Using Pre-Built Binaries and QEMU' to 'Example Using Pre-built Binaries and QEMU', which was moved to the adt-manual. ref-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto Project'. Moved the note about if your system has oss4-dev in the packages area in the YP QS to the appropriate area in the ref-manual. Moved the introduction information regarding building an image along with the figure from YP QS to the ref-manual's section on building images. toaster-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto Project'. yocto-project-qs: Complete rewrite that changed many section headings and removed much detail, which was placed in other manuals.

* ref-manual: Updates to the "Speeding Up the Build" sectionScott Rifenbark2015-07-281-25/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | I applied a little more information to this section to help round out the variable explanations. Part of the change involved adding PARALLEL_MAKEINST to the list of scaled variables. I had left that variable off. Also added a new trade-off.

* ref-manual: Updated text for speeding up builds.Scott Rifenbark2015-02-171-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "Speeding Up the Build" section presents a list of items the user can consider when they want to tweak the build speed. One of the items is the three variables BB_NUMBER_THREADS, BB_NUMBER_PARSE_THREADS, and PARALLEL_MAKE. It was noted that the system figures out the optimal settings for these now and it is pretty useless to override the settings. However, the introducing sentence to the list is still valid due to other considerations that go beyond these three variables. So, to update the text, I have re-emphasized the role of these three variables for quickening the build time. Reported-by: Robert P. J.
