[yocto] Question on building out-of-tree modules on the target

[Rifenbark, Scott M]

Hi, 

I have a section in the YP Linux Kernel Development Manual that talks about building out-of-tree-modules on the target - http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.9/kernel-dev/kernel-dev.html#building-out-of-tree-modules-on-the-target.  In this this section is a simple statements saying "Briefly, the kernel-dev package is installed by default on all *.sdk images."  I talked to some people and they noted that this might be an oversimplification.  It was also noted that for lsb and rt sdk images the old kernel-dev is added but for sato-sdk the new kernel-devsrc is added.

The section I have does not even mention a kernel-devsrc.  I am wondering how accurate this section currently is.  I don't know much about this particular area and could use some help from anyone to make this section more technically accurate given the latest YP release.  

Thanks, 
Scott
