kernel-dev/common.rst: remove SRC_URI:append from examples

2022-09-24T16:44:55+00:00

It's better to use SRC_URI += to append patches etc. If anything is added via :append, that can only be removed with :remove which makes the changes rather permanent compared to light weight += amendments.

kernel-dev: working with kernel using devtool does not require building and installing eSDK

2022-08-12T22:11:28+00:00

In fact, all the same tasks can be done directly from a Yocto build. Let's just drop the steps to produce and install the eSDK - if someone wants it, the SDK manual covers everything.

docs: replace remaining ``FOO`` by :term:`FOO`

2021-07-16T20:59:31+00:00

A few occurences appeared between the time the original patch was sent and it was applied, this fixes it. Also, the original patch didn't take into account lowercase terms, this is now fixed, see module_autoload for example. Finally, as is often the case with regexp, there was a typo in it that didn't make it match as much as it should have. The script that is used to do the replacement of ``FOO`` by :term:`FOO` is the following Python code: import re from pathlib import Path from runpy import run_module import contextlib import io import sys re_term = re.compile(r'variables.html#term-([a-zA-Z_0-9]*)') terms = [] new_terms = set() with contextlib.redirect_stdout(io.StringIO()) as f: run_module('sphinx.ext.intersphinx', run_name='__main__') objects = f.getvalue() match = re_term.search(objects) while match: if match.group(1): terms.append(match.group(1)) match = re_term.search(objects, match.end()) for rst in Path('.').rglob('*.rst'): with open(rst, 'r') as f: content = "".join(f.readlines()) for term in terms: content = re.sub(r'``({})``(?!.*\s+[~=-]{{{:d},}})'.format(term, len(term)), r':term:`\1`', content) with open(rst, 'w') as f: f.write(content) This script takes one argument as input: an objects.inv. Bitbake's can be gotten from https://docs.yoctoproject.org/bitbake/objects.inv. The objetcs.inv from the current git repo can be gotten from documentation/_build/html/objetcs.inv after running `make html`. Note that this excludes from replacement terms that appear in section titles as it requires refs to be changed too. This can be automated too if need be but right now it looks a bit confusing to have an anchor link (for sections) also have a term/reference link in it. I am not sure this is desired today. This is the result of two runs of the aforementioned script, once with Bitbake objects.inv and once with this repo's.

docs: replace ``FOO`` by :term:`FOO` where possible

2021-06-19T15:54:01+00:00

If a variable has a glossary entry and some rST files write about those variables, it's better to point to the glossary entry instead of just highlighting it by surrounding it with two tick quotes. This was automated by the following python script: """ import re from pathlib import Path with open('objects.inv.txt', 'r') as f: objects = f.readlines() with open('bitbake-objects.inv.txt', 'r') as f: objects = objects + f.readlines() re_term = re.compile(r'variables.html#term-([A-Z_0-9]*)') terms = [] for obj in objects: match = re_term.search(obj) if match and match.group(1): terms.append(match.group(1)) for rst in Path('.').rglob('*.rst'): with open(rst, 'r') as f: content = "".joing(f.readlines()) for term in terms: content = re.sub(r'``({})``(?!.*\s*[~-]+)'.format(term), r':term:`\1`', content) with open(rst, 'w') as f: f.write(content) """ (From yocto-docs rev: ba49d9babfcb84bc5c26a68c8c3880a1d9c236d3) Signed-off-by: Quentin Schulz Reviewed-by: Michael Opdenacker Reviewed-by: Nicolas Dechesne Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
