ref-manual: Converted external links to internal and fixed dev-manual links

2017-10-30T15:55:06+00:00

The dev-manual title changed to the Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual. Fixed links for that. Also, fixed some external links that should have been internal to ref-manual.

kernel-dev: Eliminated "Generating Configuration Files" section.

2017-10-06T11:06:33+00:00

This section was largely redundant now. The small things that did add value I placed in other areas of the chapter 2. One was a new section on expanding variables using bitbake -e. Another was a bit about the defconfig file. And a small procedure on how to create config fragments using the "diffconfig" command was retained. Links from the dev-manual and the ref-manual were adjusted as well. (From yocto-docs rev: 7059d3eac1fec20089cabf197503f1bec747686d) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual: Compatibility program and moving kernel configuration

2017-09-26T10:18:59+00:00

Should have been two commits but I forgot to do them separately. 1. I updated the YP Compatible Program section. 2. I moved the "Configuring the Kernel" section from the dev-manual to the kernel-dev manual.

dev-manual, ref-manual: Image format implementation changes

2017-09-22T16:53:44+00:00

Recently a number of changes have happened on the implementation side of some image formats, and a few have been renamed. The u-boot image signing code is now always available and no longer in a stand-alone file. The vmdk/mdi/qcow2 images have been removed and are now just a conversion type that is applied to wic images.

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.
