bsp-guide, kernel-dev: Added Cross-references to "BitBake" term

I made sure that the first occurrence of each "BitBake" term linked into the "BitBake" term as defined in the dev-manual. (From yocto-docs rev: 83e6e43d13cf5447b8ef65836d532abbb1f8b15e) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: New step to "Generating Configuration Files" section.

2014-03-25T12:29:38+00:00

Add a new step about how to use diffconfig task to create kernel config fragments. Scott fixed some grammar in one of the sentences after applying the patch. (From yocto-docs rev: 5b7ccdbf708cbeebc2d8dc91db129fb35aabdcdd) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Corrected error in the FILESEXTRAPATHS example

2013-11-01T17:09:50+00:00

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend example is missing essential trailing colon. (From yocto-docs rev: 6287fee9fba7173cdd22fc9bbd4378367c75627f) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual, kernel-manual: Added links to THISDIR variable

2013-05-31T07:19:20+00:00

There is now a glossary description for the THISDIR variable in ref-manual. I added some cross-reference links to the variable in key places of these two manuals. (From yocto-docs rev: 0d0f756c142c506a66ebc6a1a33e9f124dafd333) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Updates to "Creating the Append File" section.

2013-05-22T16:23:41+00:00

Pointed out by Robert P. J. Day that I was using the wrong FILESEXTRAPATHS example for an append file. I failed to include the "_prepend" part of the variable. Also, the wording based on the example made some assumptions and was not entirely accurate. The changes I put in made the section very specific. Reported-by: Robert P. J.

kernel-dev: Updated changing the configuration section.

2013-05-22T16:23:41+00:00

Robert P. J. Day pointed out some implied meanings in this section that indicate configurations from .config are exclusive somehow from configurations applied through config fragments. That is not the case. I have inserted a note to clear up that implied meaning. Reported-by: Robert P. J.

kernel-dev: Edits to the "Changing the Configuration" section.

2013-04-17T21:34:23+00:00

This section had some problems. It failed to mention the need to extend FILESPATH by using FILESEXTRAPATHS. (From yocto-docs rev: e627cf21242a62fb23e93fdae61e8cfce32082a9) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Fixed another occurrence of ${FILES}

2013-04-17T21:34:23+00:00

Further down in the section, a second occurrence of ${FILES} needed changed. (From yocto-docs rev: 0212a1ebfef4c5a6a0ae76410f7753bbc41d3e82) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Correction to where to place a .cfg file.

2013-04-17T21:34:23+00:00

This was inaccurately referencing the ${FILES} directory when it should be talking about a "files" directory created in the user's layer where the kernel .bbappend file resides.

kernel-dev: Spell checked the files and fixed appropriately.
