We want to have a proper variable to control the GAIA build distribution.
Idea is below:
1. Define the device type in device config file, it shuold be TARGET_DEVICE_TYPE or some proper varuable.
2. In GAIA makefile, if TARGET_DEVICE_TYPE is equal as tablet, it will build tablet distribution; if TARGET_DEVICE_TYPE is equal as TV, it will build TV distribution.
Summary: [TABLET] Support GAIA tablet distribution → [TABLET] Support specifying target device type in Gaia build script.
@Yuren: any thought of the variable?
Flags: needinfo?(yurenju.mozilla)
yeah that's variable looks good to me.

I found there is similar definition in Android, "PRODUCT_CHARACTERISTICS := tablet" in device.mk.
Do we need to create other one for B2G?

I'm good with PRODUCT_CHARACTERISTICS if gecko/gonk use the same variable to decide the product type. could you needinfo gecko/gonk guys to confirm it?

Pre-discussed with Marco, we need to avoid pollution of build flag in aosp, so we suggest to have a sepecific flag for B2G, such B2G_DEVICE_TYPE.
I'm good at any variable name, as long as it's not too specific for a device type.

offline discussed, we use GAIA_DEVICE_TYPE
Taken first.

Hi Yuren,
   Please help to review my patch and give me some feedback.
   I prefer to add more 'test case' on bug 979787 but not on this bug.
   How do you think?
