Upon reading https://community.freescale.com/docs/DOC-100847 I enabled the Bluetooth subsystem support, RFCOMM, BNEP, and HIDP, as well as the HCI USB driver. I saved the .config file and copied it to the directory where my Linux recipe is (linux-imx_3.10.17.bb). I then renamed my .config file into defconfig, made a new folder called "files" and placed the defconfig in it. I also made a .bbappend file that contained

I tried doing "bitbake -f -c compile linux-imx" and then "bitbake -f -c deploy linux-imx", and copied the resulting uImage to my SD card's /media/Boot folder, but still no trace of btusb. I checked the tar archive for the kernel modules found in the /tmp/deploy/images/imx6qsabresd folder, and found two files called modules.order and modules.builtin, the btusb driver is listed in the modules.builtin file, but not mentioned in the modules.order file, I have also tried compiling the driver as module, and then ran the same commands as listed in the said link, but could not find the module. What am I doing wrong here? Any help will be will be appreciated, since I am new to Linux and the Yocto Project.

You might have made it built-in, no? in this case no module will be
generated but it will be included in the kernel.
