Subject: [PATCH v2 17/18] spdx-common: Add documentation for undocumented SPDX variables
Date: Sat, 21 Feb 2026 06:10:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260221051006.335141-18-stondo@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260221051006.335141-1-stondo@gmail.com>

From: Stefano Tondo <stefano.tondo.ext@siemens.com>

Add [doc] strings for eight undocumented SPDX-related BitBake
variables in spdx-common.bbclass.

Variables documented:
- SPDX_INCLUDE_SOURCES
- SPDX_INCLUDE_COMPILED_SOURCES
- SPDX_UUID_NAMESPACE
- SPDX_NAMESPACE_PREFIX
- SPDX_PRETTY
- SPDX_LICENSES
- SPDX_CUSTOM_ANNOTATION_VARS
- SPDX_MULTILIB_SSTATE_ARCHS

This makes variables discoverable via bitbake-getvar and IDE
completion, improving usability for SBOM generation.
