What magic string do I put in local.conf to get the 80211 (cfg80211.ko in particular) to get built in my image?

Hi pfworks,

you have 2 methods to get cfg80211.ko module.
1. In Yocto
#bitbake -c menuconfig linux-imx

Use the command to load kernle menu and select M for cfg80211 option.
2. Standalone
Refer to i.MX_Linux_Users_Guide.pdf, use standalone method to compile linux kernel and device tree.
# make menuconfig
Use the command to load kernel menu and select M for cfg80211 option.
[Note]
open i.MX_Linux_Users_Guide.pdf and search standalone, you will find related chapter.

Actually, you can compile u-boot and kernel image by standalone, and use yocto to compile rootfs.

Hope this information is helpful to you.

Have a nice day!

B.R,
