Hi,
We really need help. We had YOCTO 3.14.52-1.1.0 with MURATA Wi-Fi drivers working well:
(i.MX 6 Series Software and Development Tool|NXP )

Now, we have upgrade to YOCTO 4.1.15-1.2.0 and, now, when we compile it, the file bcmdhd.ko is not generated.
Why?

I finally got the bcmdhd.ko file.
1. bitbake -c menuconfig linux-imx
In the Device Drivers->Network device support ->Wireless LAN->Broadcom FullMAC wireless cards support , enable bcmdhd and sdio, with all the others blank(otherwise in my case, those options just make the driver not work on imx6q)
2. cp -f <YOCTO BUILD>/tmp/work/imx6qsabresd-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-imx/4.1.15-r0/build/.config <YOCTO BUILD>/tmp/work/imx6qsabresd-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-imx/4.1.15-r0/build/source/arch/arm/configs/imx_v7_defconfig
3. add the following at the end of linux-imx_4.1.15.bb, the reason is that the do_configure() will override the generated .config file which will make step 1 useless.
| linux-imx_4.1.15.bb |
|---|
| addtask copy_defconfig_again after do_configure before do_compile do_copy_defconfig_again () { # copy latest imx_v7_defconfig to use cp ${S}/arch/arm/configs/imx_v7_defconfig ${B}/.config cp ${S}/arch/arm/configs/imx_v7_defconfig ${B}/../defconfig |
4. bitbake -f -c copy_defconfig linux-imx
5. bitbake core-image-base
6. The bcmdhd.ko can be found at <YOCTO BUILD>/tmp/work/imx6qsabresd-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-imx/4.1.15-r0/build/drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd
Cheers,
Xiaoban

Oh, sorry, I forgot to mention that in <YOCTO BUILD>/tmp/work/imx6qsabresd-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-imx/4.1.15-r0/build/source/drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd/Makefie, in default "DRIVER_TYPE ?= y", but I think somehow the configuration from the generated .config file can not change it to "m" during the make process, so I mannually changed it into "DRIVER_TYPE ?= m" for safe.

Hi Igor,
I am having a similar problem. It can only build the bcmdhd.o, but not the bcmdhd.ko. And the link you provided has 404 error now.
Thanks very much for your help and time.
Best wishes,
Xiaoban
