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

2015-10-21T22:11:38+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).

kernel-dev: Added new requirement for working with yocto-linux-custom.bb

2015-10-21T22:11:38+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #6611] Added a new step to the "Working With Your Own Sources" section so that the user is aware of needing to provide a defconfig file or configuration fragments to the SRC_URI variable when working with the yocto-linux-custom.bb recipe.

kernel-dev: Added new "in-tree" defconfig file section.

2015-10-21T22:11:37+00:00

I added the new section "Using an "In-Tree" defconfig File" section. This section addresses the ability to not use the default location for defconfig files, which is usually in the metadata layer. The section describes how to use the KBUILD_DEFCONFIG variable.

kernel-dev: Added detail to start of generating config file

2015-10-21T22:11:37+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7474] The "Generating Configuration Files" section has a procedure that starts with a step to complete a build at least through the kernel configuration task. This is needed but we could use a bit of explanation here. I added some rationale behind why you should do this.

documentation: Updated customization layers to point to XSL mirrors

2015-10-21T22:11:37+00:00

The customization layers were pointing to Sourceforge site for the XSl files needed to build the manuals. Throuhgout time, this site has failed me enough to warrent trying to get these XSL files from some other source. Rather than ship the XSL files with the YP release, we decided to create some mirrors and point the customization files there.

documentation: Updates to try to fix CentOS docs build errors

2015-04-01T16:36:09+00:00

The docs are not building on CentOS and we think it is due to the XSL templates being called for the Eclipse parts. I located all the "current" templates and switched them out for "1.76.1" version as are used by the mainstream doc builds.
