Its calling: lib/bb/data_smart.py: def getVar(self, var, expand=False, noweakdefault=False since d is a data store object which becomes "self", the first argument and the other two are then passed in with expand = True. The bb.data.getVar(d, var, expand) syntax is just clumsy and deprecated when you can write the same thing as d.getVar(var, expand).
