dev-manual: Added cross-reference note into the BSP Guide.

2017-03-24T23:44:03+00:00

The section in the dev-manual that introduces BSP Layers for the first time was missing a general link to reference into the BSP Guide to help the user understand BSP Layer structure. I added a note.

dev-manual, ref-manual: Added support for WKS_FILE_DEPENDS variable.

2017-03-24T23:44:02+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #11017] There is no current way to specify or list plug-in dependencies when building a Wic image. The variable WKS_FILE_DEPENDS was introduced to allow the user to use this in the recipe building the image. I added a description and example of the variable to the ref-manual variable glossary. I also cross-referenced the variable in the "Plug-ins" section of the dev-manual to point to the variable for more information.

2017-03-24T23:44:02+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #11048] No documentation existed for telling the user how to create signed RPM packages or for how to use signed package feeds. I have created a new section on the topic to describe both scenarios. (From yocto-docs rev: cbdde75f06b1fc190b8e4f7f93f302dc238e3e7f) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual: Added section on bmap-tool to flash images

2017-01-11T17:23:18+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #10621] bmaptool is integrated into the OpenEmbedded build system but is not documented. I added a new section describing how to flash an image to media using the tool. Also, updated a small section in the Wic part of the manual that used "dd" to flash an example. I added a bmaptool counterpart here and referenced the reader back to the main new section.

2017-01-11T17:23:17+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #10763] The final example in the section describing how to create the base recipe using receipetool create was wrong. I updated it to use the -d option in addition to the -o opetion. I also changed the description to match appropriately. (From yocto-docs rev: 8cc6d5e21532eeaac0e6d9ace3e0b58803a9804e) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
