kernel-dev/common.rst: fix the in-tree defconfig description

2025-10-03T17:09:02+00:00

The description of the relation between KBUILD_DEFCONFIG and SRC_URI is reversed. In fact it is the SRC_URI provided defconfig which will be dropped by the kernel-yocto class if both are provided.

sphinx-lint: unbalanced inline literal markup

2025-05-28T15:46:32+00:00

Fix as many instances of unbalanced-inline-literals-delimiters as reported by 'make sphinx-lint' as possible. Sphinx and/or its linter seem to get tripped up randomly when references contain links to heading which contain literals enclosed in double-back-tics, and not all of them can be "fixed" to pass both building and linting.

manuals: remove tab characters

2024-04-19T11:50:40+00:00

As reported by "make sphinx-lint" Tabs are even removed in Makefile examples, as Sphinx turns them to spaces anyway in the generated output. (From yocto-docs rev: fd1423141e7458ba557db465c171b0b4e9063987) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Reviewed-by: Quentin Schulz Signed-off-by: Steve Sakoman

kernel-dev: join mkdir commands with -p

2024-04-19T11:50:40+00:00

To make it more obvious which directories are needed, pass only these to *mkdir* and use the option `-p` to create the missing parents. (From yocto-docs rev: 4ddcedca4b09e2c051b33a40659ffce1db2984f5) Signed-off-by: Jörg Sommer Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Steve Sakoman

manuals: suppress excess use of "following" word

2024-03-01T15:19:54+00:00

To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are" by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural. In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx" by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at the end of the sentence. In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when it's redundant with the preceding title.

manuals: add hyperlinks to files in meta-skeleton

2021-12-13T23:31:34+00:00

This makes the manuals easier to use. Note the care to keep the paths visible, so that people reading a printed version still know where to find the files. (From yocto-docs rev: 501917f65530f14ea686b69d6e96407c3f970a28) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

To prepare to add another example bbappend, rename the current "Using .bbappend Files in Your Layer" section to "Appending Other Layers Metadata With Your Layer". Name the current example as "Overlaying a File Using Your Layer".
