Scott Rifenbark 2e492c8d55 dev-manual, mega-manual: Updated kernel flow (text and figs)
Partial fix for [YOCTO #5368]

Updated the figure to not have the tarball method in there
for setting up poky repo locally.  Also, added specific references
to the environment setup scripts.

Scott Rifenbark 15a28d71be dev-manual, mega-manual: Updated BSP Development figure
Partial fix to [YOCTO #5368]

I updated the workflow so that it does not have the tarball
extraction option to set up local copies of poky and meta-intel.
The figure is housed in dev-manual and mega-manual.

Scott Rifenbark c922bfe296 dev-manual: Edits to the "Source Directory" term
Fixes [YOCTO #5368]

Partial fix to the tarball removal issue.  I rewrote parts of
this term's definition to slightly de-emphasize tarball expansion
as a method to set up the Source Directory on the local machine.

Scott Rifenbark 0dd2fede8e dev-manual: Edits to "Yocto Project Source Repositories" section
Fixes [YOCTO #5368]

This is a partial fix to the removing tarball setup method issue.
I have modified the "Yocto Project source Repositories" section to
de-emphasize the tarball installation method for poky and meta-intel.
We cannot remove these obviously because the download page of the
website gives the use access to tarballs.  Also, the Index of
Releases basically does the same thing.  So, we can't ignore the
fact that they are there. So, I added a note basically saying we
recommend the Git method for creation of poky and meta-intel on the
development system.

Scott Rifenbark d248c5d598 dev-manual: Removed tarball method for installing meta-intel
Fixes [YOCTO #5368]

Partial fix for this issue, which is removal of the tarball install
methods for poky and now evidently meta-intel.  This commit removed
the tarball install step for meta-intel in the "Supported Board
Support Packages (BSPs):" bullet item in the getting setup section.

Scott Rifenbark f762d40db0 documentation: Changed Note for most recent manual
Fixes [YOCTO #5368]

Changes partially address this issue, which is the removal of
tarball installations for poky.  The notes at the beginning of
the YP manuals suggested that the tarball version of a manual
might lag the version found on the website.  Because we are
discouraging installing poky/documentation from a tarball now,
I have re-written the note to be generic and suggest simply that
for the most recent version of the manual associated with the
release, see the manual on the website.

Scott Rifenbark 7fa2c8f6f7 bsp-guide, dev-manual: Updated for 3.10 default kernel
YP 1.5 default kernel is 3.10.  This is a change from 3.8 in
the previous release.  This change affected several areas of
the documentation.

1. The BSP Guide had a crownbay BSP structure that did not
   account for the new default.

2. The yocto-bsp tool output still asked for the 3.8 kernel
   as the default.

3. The recipes-bsp section had 3.8 used and had some bad
   listings that had to be changed.

4. The recipes-graphics section had 3.8 used and also had some
   stuff supporting two versions of the graphics (emgd and
   noemgd).  I had to pull the emgd stuff.

5. There were miscellaneous spots in the dev-manual that were
   referencing 3.8 as the default kernel.  Particularly the
   list that shows what kernel repositories we have.  That needed
   updating.

Fixes [YOCTO #5037]

The information to fix this bug was very similar to some
"best practices" and "recommendations" information that was
currently buried in a section that described how to create a
layer.  So, since the new information for this bug fix increased
the amount of information significantly, I have pulled out the
existing "recommendations" and "best practices" information and
combined it with this new information and placed it in its
own section dedicated to just that.  The information still
resides in the main section that introduces and discusses
layers and their creation.

This is a first draft of the section.  It is under review.

Scott Rifenbark b1b9f43ca4 dev-manual: Updated "Toaster" section to be API-only.
Fixes [YOCTO #4730]

The web interface for Toaster was cut from the 1.5 release.
I have commented out the existing section and replaced it with
a short introductory section for the API only.

Scott Rifenbark de62377415 dev-manual: Added new section on how to exclude a package
Fixes [YOCTO #4079]

The changes here address the documentation component of this
bug.  There is now a new section in the dev-manual in the
"Working With Packages" section that describes and introduces
the three variables the user can use to control this feature:
BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS, NO_RECOMMENDATIONS, and PACKAGE_EXCLUDE.

Scott Rifenbark a266619317 documentation: Added the memory-resident BitBake feature
The main changes are captured in a new section devoted to the
oe-init-build-env-memres script within the ref-structure.xml
file and in the variables.xml file in a BBSERVER variable entry
in the glossary.

All other changes were necessary to integrate the new functionality
into areas where running the setup script are discussed.  Before
this feature, there was a single setup script (oe-init-build-env).
Consequently, wordings and such were designed exclusively for this
single method.  With the introduction of a second possible method
to initialize the build environment, tweaks to many sections were
needed.  Beside the wording tweaks, appropriate cross-referencing
was also needed.

All these changes cover the integration of the new feature.

Scott Rifenbark 0615dc0a57 dev-manual, ref-manual, yocto-project-qs: Debian support added
Fixes [YOCTO #4912]

Throughout the manual set, various areas talk about the Linux
distributions we support and the required packages among other
items that are tied to a distro.  Debian had been missing except
from the list in the ref-manual that shows the releases we test
against.

I have attended to all areas where Debian needs to be mentioned
now.

Scott Rifenbark 4888d1e6a1 ref-manual, dev-manual: Review edits for Build Directory wording.
Did some word-smithing to work around a false statement that
implied externalsrc.bbclass needed to be inherited on a
recipe-by-recipe basis.  This affected the usage section and
the glossary definitions for both EXTERNALSRC and EXTERNALSRC_BUILD.

Also updated the "B" variable description to be more accurate
in the use of the term "Build Directory."
