2011-03-01documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-manual.xml: Updated copyright dateScott Rifenbark1
Changed the copyright date from "2010" to "2010-2011". Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-18documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Changes to section 3.4.4 and ↵Scott Rifenbark1
new 3.4.5 I made some updates to the 3.4.4 section according to Bruce Ashfield's feedback. I also added a new section 3.4.5 (Creating a BSP Based on an Existing Similar BSP Without a Local Kernel Repository). Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-18documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: fix to step 3 and 4 of ↵Scott Rifenbark1
section 3.4.4 Added text after the sample bbappend file stating that the user needs to update the KSRC assignment statement and also remove its comment. Also they have to remove the comment from the SRC_URI line. Changed the bitbake command in step 4 to use the linux-yocto-stable file rather than the linux-yocto file. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-18documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Fix to step 3 of section 3.4.4Scott Rifenbark1
Changed 'linux-yocto_git.bbappend' to 'linux-yocto-stable_git.bbappend' in step 3 just before the code example. This makes the code consistent with the rest of the example supporting the 2.6.34 kernel. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-18documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Fix to step 1 of section 3.4.4Scott Rifenbark1
Step one states that the linux-yocto_git.bbappend file is left. This file is associated with distro 2.6.37 kernel and the rest of the example is associated with the 2.6.34 kernel. So, I changed the step to indicate that the directory is left with a linux-yocto-stable_git.bbappend file. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: More changes to the creating ↵Scott Rifenbark1
BSP section. These changes implemented Bruce Ashfield's next round of changes to the section 4.3.3 example. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: Fixed typeScott Rifenbark1
In section 4.3.3 step 2 there was a directory 'build/donf/bblayers.conf'. I fixed the typo to 'build/conf/bblayers.conf'. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: - Condense and merge example ↵Scott Rifenbark1
changed. The example used to show how to condense and merge two BSPs into a second SCM used a non-existant machine (cav_ebt5800-standard). I replaced this machine with 'common_pc_64-standard, which is a real machine. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: [BUGID# 597] Reversing ↵Scott Rifenbark1
common-pc-standard [BUGID# 597] - After talking with Bruce Ashfield the kernel documentation needs to support the 2.6.34 disribution. So, the 'common-pc-standard' strings need to be changed back to 'common_pc-standard'. This fix restores them. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2011-02-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: [BUGID# 597] Fixed common_pcScott Rifenbark1
[BUGID# 597] - Changed the string "common_pc" to "common-pc". Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

2010-12-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: added newline characterScott Rifenbark1

2010-12-14documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-how-to.xml: fixed typo bug 588Scott Rifenbark1

best practices for organizing shared features. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual: Added Bruce Ashfields review comments.Scott Rifenbark3

statement to conform to sharing. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-concepts.xml: Updated the text so that ↵Scott Rifenbark1
the conceptual figure showing the kernel is out. Feedback indicated by Dave suggested getting rid of this. So I commented out the text around it and modified the reminder text so it did not reference a figure. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual: Modified to call new chapter structure.Scott Rifenbark1

2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual/kernel-manual.xml: added this file so that PDF ↵Scott Rifenbark1
could be built. This is inline with how the other docs are built. kernel-manual.xml is called by xsltproc from the Makefile. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual/yocto-project-kernel-manual.xml: removed the ↵Scott Rifenbark1
code that inserts the image. I made this file similar to the bsp.xml file so that it would build into a PDF file. It was throwing an error because of the imagedata tag that was up front. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual/Makefile: Added code to create a PDF version.Scott Rifenbark1

2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual/style.css: Changed h2 through h6 styles.Scott Rifenbark1
I needed more demarcation for these section titles. They were not visually different enough. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual/yocto-project-kernel-manual.xml: Removed ↵Scott Rifenbark1
sections not fit for 0.9 release. These sections were commented out after a review by Bruce Ashfield. They need to be revisited as we continue with the 1.0 work. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual/yocto-project-kernel-manual.xml and ↵Scott Rifenbark2
yocto-project-kernel-manual-customization.xsl: Renamed files with correct spelling for kernel. I had to rename these files because I had kernel mis-spelled when I committed the original manual files. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>
2010-12-10documentation/kernel-manual/yocto-project-kernal-manual.xml: and ↵Scott Rifenbark2
yocto-project-kernal-manual-customization.xsl removed from tree. I noticed I had mis-spelled kernel for these files names after committing the new kernel manual. I renamed the files and had to remove these two. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

2010-12-10documentation/kerenl-manual: New directory and files for kernel manual.Scott Rifenbark7
This is the first draft of the Yocto Project Kernel manual. The manual consists of two sections: concepts and a practical section that has examples. It is based of Bruce Ashfield's kernel theory paper. This first draft has been re-written and organized through the concepts section. The remainder was just placed in as-is due to time constraints for getting some kernel documentation up on the website. The manual still needs scrubbing and organization in the latter half.
