dev/ref-manual: Document INIT_MANAGER

2023-04-22T09:59:12+00:00

The INIT_MANAGER variable was added in 3.0 but it seems we didn't get around to documenting it yet. I have added a variable glossary entry and made the basic adjustment of the "Using systemd Exclusively" section in the dev manual, however I think the latter section still needs work.

ref-manual: move Initramfs entry from variables to terms

2023-04-22T09:59:12+00:00

It looks like this was accidentally added to the variable glossary instead of the terms list, so move it to the latter. (From yocto-docs rev: c9829dcae18cd2cb5f008081d841ca995b76b8bf) Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

ref-manual: add SDK_ARCHIVE_TYPE

2023-04-22T09:59:12+00:00

This appears to have been introduced back in 2019, but we missed documenting it. (From yocto-docs rev: 064a5d84890416362a1a7a337347abbe9afe485d) Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

ref-manual: add section link also to buildtools-extended entry

2023-04-22T09:59:12+00:00

I realise it's already in the buildtools entry above, but for completeness let's add it to the buildtools-extended entry as well. (From yocto-docs rev: d9db1d380120e976a30e9eddb86b391084178c94) Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

ref-manual: document new patch-status-* QA checks

2023-04-22T09:59:12+00:00

Newly added in 4.2. (From yocto-docs rev: 12e576fb6a932c4089651371c71c61fd1e96cd48) Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

ref-manual: add missing QA checks from previous releases

2023-04-22T09:59:12+00:00

This section needs to be kept in sync with the "QA Error and Warning Messages" section (qa-checks.rst) - this is the other direction that tells folks what all of the values in WARN_QA / ERROR_QA are intended to do. Add the ones that we missed adding here for previous releases, and also use a proper reference for the buildhistory class in the entry for version-going-backwards.

migration-guides: Add coverage of addpylib directive

2023-04-22T09:59:12+00:00

To complement what I am adding to the BitBake reference manual, add a section in the 4.2 migration guide, a reference in the structure section of the reference manual (where we talk about meta/lib) and adjust the release notes item to be a little more concise.
