ref-manual: Added warning for nativesdk recipe naming convention

2017-04-29T10:17:52+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #11411] To help clear up the importance of the naming convention a user must follow when creating a nativesdk-myrecipe.bb recipe that inherits the nativesdk class, I placed a warning note at the end of the section for the "nativesdk.bbclass" section.

ref-manual, dev-manual: Updates to support recipe-specific sysroots

2017-04-18T14:51:44+00:00

Changes covered several areas. Version 2.3 of the YP now supports recipe-specific sysroots and is not limited to machine-specific as was prior releases. Manual changes were as follows: dev-manual: "Sharing Files Between Recipes" - Wordings were changed to support the new functionality. ref-manual: do_prepare_recipe_sysroot task added to the list of tasks described in "Configuration and Compilation". ref-manual: Extensive re-write of the "staging.bbclass" section. ref-manual: Added a section to the build structure for build/tmp/work/tunearch/recipename/version/. This section breaks down the recipe-specific subdirectories used to create (stage) the sysroot. ref-manual: New section (entry) for the do_prepare_recipe_sysroot task in the task chapter. ref-manual: Added a variable glossary description for the SSTATE_SCAN_FILES variable. In addition to these changes, I sprinkled in a liberal amount of cross-referencing for the readers pleasure.

dev-manual; ref-manual: Updates to replace "smart" with "dnf"

Fixes [YOCTO #9675] Various fixes to replace the "smart" package manager references with "dnf". (From yocto-docs rev: 721dc7fb637c4c03534eb19f61b0b08a7303826d) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual, ref-manual: Created new section on initramfs

2017-01-11T17:23:17+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7096] We did not document how to create an initramfs image to be included with a kernel build. Various variables sort of inferred the knowledge. I created a new section in the "Common Tasks" section of the dev-manual that describes how to create an initramfs image. Also, I updated the kernel.bbclass reference section to point back to the new "how-to" section. Finally, I also created a bunch of cross-reference links from various related variables back to the new "how-to" section.

documentation: Added new description for the PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable.

2016-09-23T14:27:33+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #10183] Added a new variable entry for the PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable. With the introduction of the new PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable, many places in the mainstream YP documentation that referenced how to pass configure arguments using EXTRA_OECONF needed to also make mention of this new variable. I added many cross-references to the new variable. (From yocto-docs rev: 00f02d45319bab90b72eab89fcb69cbe8bd05bb5) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
