kernel-dev: Applied review comments to "Adding Recipe-Space Kernel Features"

2016-04-06T22:11:58+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #4047] I went through and fixed a few areas where reviewers said there was "quirky" phrasing. They might have been right in a few places. (From yocto-docs rev: 66fb97838f338ed3f787ec18f62702ef726ceffc) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Added new "Adding Recipe-Space Kernel Features" section.

2016-04-06T22:11:57+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #4047] I added a new section describing how to add kernel features from within a kernel recipe through the KERNEL_FEATURES variable and the SRC_URI statement. (From yocto-docs rev: d30925c65e3f49b2ba481f1e7f9cac98fe86f6af) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Updated the "Kernel Metadata Location" section.

2016-04-06T22:11:57+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #8272] I re-wrote the section to basically consider kernel metadata coming from either inside the recipe (recipe-space) or from outside the recipe, which would be like a "kernel-cache". The re-write eliminated the term "in-tree" regarding where kernel metadata could reside.

kernel-dev: Changed a link from an example to in-text.

2016-03-23T21:56:09+00:00

Better placement of this link. It did not need to be in the example. (From yocto-docs rev: 53c33ea4cc929e016812f0d3aac0d302758dc0f8) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation: Prepare for 2.1 builds

2016-01-07T12:13:45+00:00

The changes are for the poky.ent file and the mega-manual.sed file to take care of variables. Also, entries added for the manual revision table. (From yocto-docs rev: 60da39f85165e2d4aef55d456f8203183e089433) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Added cross-reference to .config information

2015-10-29T22:05:36+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7474] There was not a strong tie between .config file discussions for the kernel between corresponding menuconfig sections in the kernel-dev and dev-manual manuals. I added a cross- reference link in the kernel-dev manual to help tie this information together.

documentation: Updated files to support 2.0 release.

2015-10-21T22:06:32+00:00

These updates included editing the poky.ent file so that DISTRO and related variables are now 2.0. Also updated all the title pages to have the manual revision table correct. Finally, used my email for the manuals. (From yocto-docs rev: deae61bfbb528ea0ced82399a78260a7f34a7a11) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Added 'make defconfig' details for own source work

2015-07-28T17:02:32+00:00

I added some detail about what really happens when you use the 'make defconfig' command when working with your own sources. Fixes [YOCTO #6611] (From yocto-docs rev: 653c7726e024dcaa908127f0df1d1856f26f4ff0) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

kernel-dev: Added kernel-devsrc information for building on target

2015-07-28T17:02:31+00:00

I added a clarifying paragraph at the start of the section that talks about building on the target hardware. Included kernel-devsrc and rationale for why a user would even do this (it is not normal).
