documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-model.xml: Edits to Modifying Kernel

2011-09-02T22:38:49+00:00

Complete re-write of this section based on feedback from Dave Stewart. Dave's comments centered around not being able to understand the overall concepts of the Git repositories, the source areas on the host, etc. I have added several illustrations and written around them to try and better explain the kernel storage system in Git used by YP and how that tranlates into host-resident code that the developer ultimately uses and the Poky build system uses for the build.

documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-model.xml: Comments from Ashfield

2011-08-15T14:27:03+00:00

1. now refer to the linux 2.6.39-rc1 as the 'latest upstream release candidate available. 2. Noted where you can find the linux-2.6 kernel - in the meta-kernel-dev area. These changes were from Bruce Ashfield's review of an early version of the Yocto Project Development Manual.

documentation/dev-manual: Changed 2.6.37 to 3.0 for 1.1 release.

2011-08-15T14:27:03+00:00

Bruce Ashfield's review comments indicated that we will be using linux-yocto-3.0 and not linux-yocto-2.6.37. So I am putting these changes in to anticipate the 1.1 release. (From yocto-docs rev: ecbe1c90c5aa65b2dde77ba6094b5956e37d061d) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-model.xml: rescaled kernel figure

2011-08-15T14:27:03+00:00

Had to set to scalefit="1" so this figure would appear correctly in the PDF version of the manual. (From yocto-docs rev: 166305f39859e11f15702a8f6eb1f5a524b589c4) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-model.xml: re-write of the kernel dev overview

2011-08-15T14:27:02+00:00

After getting the example in kenerl example appendix working I discovered much that was wrong in this overview. The overview attempts to generalize all the situations for kernel modification. These include code changes, configuration changes, and the addition of new recipes. It also includes the situation where a developer wants to gather all the changes into a separate layer for distribution and for when they want to push them up the tree.

documentation/dev-manual: Positioned figures for PDF output

2011-08-15T14:27:00+00:00

Had to tweak the viewing area to get two figures to display correctly in the PDF version of the file. (From yocto-docs rev: 89b2618e11c05744f54a9fbd39cd899117a2affc) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
