documentation: dev-manual - removed Appendix A.

2012-10-10T14:18:11+00:00

The kernel example appendix is now gone. (From yocto-docs rev: d744e76034ff2711a8c40b9bb1982971d28a04b1) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation: dev-manual - Updates to configuring Kernel section

2012-10-10T14:18:11+00:00

Eliminated the section A.2, which had an example of how to use menuconfig in the kerenl example appendix. The information is now merged into the similar section in Chapter 4 "Common Tasks." It was decided that the Appendix A examples in the manual were too detailed for a general development guide.

documentation: dev-manual - mentioned SRC_URI in the kernel example

2012-10-07T12:15:37+00:00

this statement in the linux-yocto-3.4.bbappend file needs to have the comment removed so the source can be found. (From yocto-docs rev: 821162221818f5ce53bb903aeef57c85314f5083) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation: dev-manual - added OE_INIT_FILE and went to 3.4

2012-10-07T12:15:37+00:00

In the Kernel example appendix I changed some remaining 3.2 kernel strings to 3.4. Also I added the OE_INIT_FILE variable from poky.ent for use instead of the "oe-init-build-env" string.

documentation: dev-manual - Created generic figures

2012-10-07T12:15:36+00:00

Each time the kernel revision is bumped (e.g. 3.2 to 3.4) Some of the figures would be out of date. The reason is they had pathnames that included the release of the kernel. For previous YP releases I was adding logic to the Makefile to be sure to catch the right files dependent on the branch from which the documents were being built. This scheme is not scalable so I decided to make the figures generic by adding a note within the figures explaining the place-holder "" as part of a pathname. Thus, three new figures were added to the folders directories of the dev-manual and the mega-manual. Correspondingly, the 'denzil' version of the figures were deleted. I modified the Makefile so that if the BRANCH is not edison or denzil then the generic figure set is used. I have to retain the logic for both edison and denzil to cover the case where a user clones or sets up an edison or denzil repo and then builds out the manuals. Basically, it had to be backwards compatible for releases prior to danny. (From yocto-docs rev: 8283eed4b0b9ec164b87db99c35231f8731ac443) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation: dev-manual - Edits to setup part of example

2012-10-07T12:15:36+00:00

Minor edits to the part of the example that sets up for the first core-image-minimal build. Put in the variable to use for the build environment setup script, updated some changed output from some of the commands, etc. (From yocto-docs rev: 0b4b2ddf9a78a9d6d218ed9a6f0acd3e876d9581) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation: dev-manual - fixed some links to the source directory term.

documentation: Makefile, dev-manual - Updated kernel example repo figure

2012-10-07T12:15:35+00:00

Danny, the "kernel-example-repo-.png" file changed to "kernel-example-repo-danny.png". To correctly make the dev-manual and the mega-manual some things needed to change: 1. New figure created and added to both the dev-manual and the mega-manuals figures directory. 2. The "kernel-example-repo-denzil.png" files from the dev-manual and mega-manual figures directory was removed. 3. The Makefile was adjusted so a new BRANCH=danny area now exists to set TARFILES for both dev-manual and mega-manual.

documentation: dev-manual - Added a note to point to yocto-kernel

2012-10-07T12:15:35+00:00

I added a note at the beginning of this appendix that references the yocto-kernel script as a way to quickly manage kernel patches and configuration. (From yocto-docs rev: 35cd7f6a9722120e47ae8b422dd86593497ebf1c) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
