documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-newbie.xml: edits to sending patch

2012-07-04T13:48:17+00:00

The section that describes how to send a patch upstream via email did not have a good connection to the various mailing lists. I added some references to this section and also mentioned using the scripts if the user has many changes to commit.

dev-manual: correct SMP_CONFIG

2012-07-04T13:48:16+00:00

It's CONFIG_SMP here, and since the title of the section already mentions it, just change the sentence to be more generic. (From yocto-docs rev: 32e6145b5f41d4eb293f8267ef01d02217143152) Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation/dev-manual: Fixed "Linux Yocto" term

2012-07-03T13:55:02+00:00

Throughout the manual, the kernels that are built and available through the Yocto Project were being referenced as a "Linux Yocto kernel." This reference is poor. First, it placed Linux and Yocto very close together and could upset the Linux folks. Second, a better way would have been to say "Yocto Linux kernel." I have fixed by referring to kernels that are available through the Yocto Project as "Yocto Project kernels."

documentation/dev-manual: Scrub for Yocto Project term

2012-07-03T13:55:02+00:00

I have replaced the term "Yocto Project" with more appropriate terms where possible. (From yocto-docs rev: 622ef9a2b4897ecd151b641b43d7706ab673c989) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-bsp-appendix.xml: Yocto term scrub

2012-07-03T13:55:02+00:00

Scrubbed the manual for the term "Yocto Project", which has been over-used. I updated occurrances to better represent actual bits rather than generically referring to everything as Yocto Project.
