* manuals: document VIRTUAL-RUNTIME variablesMichael Opdenacker2024-03-061-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Document the convention to use variables prefixed by VIRTUAL_RUNTIME. Add references to the new term where possible. Another reason is that such variables are recommended in a warning issued by meta/classes-global/insane.bbclass (From yocto-docs rev: 11e1ba97edac979868f199e43c1004db6678044c) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker <michael.opdenacker@bootlin.com> Reported-by: Tim Orling <ticotimo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
* manuals: expand init manager documentationMichael Opdenacker2023-04-281-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Add details about INIT_MANAGER Correct the fact that "none" currently generates an image with "sysvinit", at least on Poky. This behaviour should probably be changed. - Expand the "Selecting an Initialization Manager" section. - Stop mentioning "rescue image" generation, as this is not detailed anywhere else.

* manuals: split dev-manual/common-tasks.rstMichael Opdenacker2022-12-011-0/+72
A 500 KB source file is always harder to manage, and can have section title conflicts. So, the "Common Tasks" document is gone and all its constituents are moved up one level. You now have 40 chapters in the Development Tasks Manual.
