manuals: split dev-manual/common-tasks.rst

2022-12-01T19:20:29+00:00

A 500 KB source file is always harder to manage, and can have section title conflicts. So, the "Common Tasks" document is gone and all its constituents are moved up one level. You now have 40 chapters in the Development Tasks Manual. (From yocto-docs rev: 8a45bc469411410020b8e688c137395fcaf3761b) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: fix paragraphs with the "inherit" word

2022-12-01T19:20:29+00:00

Nothing wrong with this word, but instances of "inherit" were looked for while looking for class names without references. Fixing alignment and sometimes syntax. (From yocto-docs rev: c418c645a360e74ebb91765a3041336f03097e0d) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

2022-10-28T14:48:03+00:00

Replace instances of "Build Directory" and "build directory" (when applicable) by :term:`Build Directory` as already done in most places. Doing this, fix the indentation of the paragraphs with this term. (From yocto-docs rev: dce50679242d39f133e0cde5c8483b5e69f3eb54) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual: common-tasks.rst: refactor and improve "Checking for Vulnerabilities" section

2022-10-28T14:48:03+00:00

Add sub section to how Poky and OE-Core handle CVE security issues. This is a generic intro chapter. Also add note that this is a process which needs quite a bit of review and iteration to keep products and SW stack secure, a process not a product. Then change "Vulnerabilites in images" chapter to "Vulnerability check at build time" since the process applies to anything compiled with bitbake, not just images. Explain details of how to work with cve-check.bbclass, especially the states Patched, Unpatched and Ignored in the generated reports. Rename recipe chapter to "Fixing CVE product name and version mappings" since CVE check has some default which works for all recipes but generated reports may be completely broken. Fixes are then done with CVE_PRODUCT and CVE_VERSION. Give some hints how to analyze "Unpatched" CVEs by checking what happens in other Linux distros etc. (From yocto-docs rev: 77a9c1a9fe651bf11f1d5a723b0741dd1764b2c8) Signed-off-by: Mikko Rapeli Reviewed-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
