2023-10-17dev-manual: layers: Add notes about layer.confBELHADJ SALEM Talel
As discussed before with Richard Purdie, the code supports this but the documentation does not. Developers in general will not notice this or focus on it because they do not mess with the layer.conf template file, but in my opinion I think more details can help.

2023-10-17ref-manual: variables: provide no-match example for COMPATIBLE_MACHINEQuentin Schulz
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE is used to forbid the use of a recipe or its packages for a specific set of machines. In some cases, it may make more sense to have the logic inverted and have the recipe always forbidden except for hand-picked machines. Such could be the case for pieces of software that only support some architectures. In that scenario, it is sometimes a bit easier on the eye and for maintenance to use the OVERRIDES mechanism but for that, a default should be set. COMPATIBLE_MACHINE:aarch64 = "^(aarch64)$" COMPATIBLE_MACHINE:mips64 = "^(mips64)$" wouldn't do much because if COMPATIBLE_MACHINE isn't set, the recipe is assumed compatible and therefore, if no default is provided we enter that case. Hence, we need to add COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "^$" as default so that it only matches the empty string, which isn't possible for MACHINEOVERRIDES.

PACKAGECONFIG's first and second flag value will be added to PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS and then it will be added to the appropriate variable (EXTRA_OECMAKE, or ...) So we need to only mention PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS and it will lead to other variables. I added a custom example that can help understanding very well PACKAGECONFIG.
