While ost-distro is intended to be used for production images and provides some base settings such as configuring SystemD as the init-System and .ipk as the package format of choice, ost-devel builds on ost-distro but modifies the configuration to be more amenable for images used during development.
The most notable difference between a development and production image is that the production image disables root login and ships with a read only filesystem for extra resilience in case of power cuts/improper shutdowns.
Images built with ost-devel allow for passwordless root login and mount the root filesystem as read/write. Additionally, ost-devel adds ostdevel to OVERRIDES allowing recipes to easily change their behavior for development or production images.
For example:
MY_VAR = "default value used in production images (when not using ost-devel)"
MY_VAR:ostdevel = "value used when using ost-devel (i.e. in development images)"
For more information about bitbake overrides, check the bitbake manual.
This is used in ost-image to include additional packages in the development image such as strace, usbutils and evtest. For a full list of the additional packages, check ost-image-base.bb.
