It seems to me one should be able to find the linux-yocto kernel itself
under the Yocto Project Components from the basic search page. Currently
there is Kernel Tooling and BSPs, but there are times when the bug is
not BSP specific and is in the kernel itself, not the tooling. For this,
a hierarchy like the following might be preferable:
Yocto Project Components
BSPs
bsps
Kernel
linux-yocto
configuration
kernel-tooling
+1. I completely agree with this.
I am still not sure how best to deal with BSPs here and BSPs in Build
System& Metadata. I think We should pick one or the other as the
distinction between the two is non-obvious (actually I have no idea what
it would be).
Agreed .. that this is hard. If we used 'configuration' for the kernel
category, could the build system + meta data fall into that as well
under BSPs ?
i.e.
BSPs
bsps - runtime
bsps - configuration
I think so. I like this better.
Tom, any objections?
Yocto Project Components
BSPs
bsps-runtime
bsps-configuration
Kernel
linux-yocto
kernel-configuration
kernel-tooling
The other Kernel related path would include
Build System& Metadata
Layers - OpenEmbedded-Core
kernel
This would be for the kernel.bbclass and other recipes and classes.
I think we should just kill:
Build System& Metadata
Layers - BSPs
and move all the BSP components under Yocto Project Components->BSPs
Finally there is:
Build System& Metadata
Layers - meta-yocto
machines
Which should just go away and be replaced witha BSPs->meta-yocto
component, if anything.
So, the final layout would be:
Yocto Project Components
BSPs
bsps-runtime
bsps-configuration (these top too being "generic" buckets)
bsps-meta-yocto
bsps-meta-fsl-ppc
bsps-meta-intel
bsps-meta-ti
bsps-tools
bsps-xilinx (meta-xilinx?)
Kernel
linux-yocto
kernel-configuration
kernel-tooling
I believe this would make it much easier for us to manage Kernel related
issues across the project.
Agreed. This makes sense to me.

Tom, Bruce: opinions on the above?
"Build System& Metadata" and "Yocto Metadata Layers" use different
naming schemes for the components in the various layers products. Some
use meta- others do not.
