well for meshing at the moment, so building images for these models is disabled by default. In addition, meshing in the same image due to WLAN firmware restrictions.
ath10k can't support IBSS and 11s meshing in the same image due to WLAN firmware restrictions.
Setting GLUON_MESH_MESH to ``11s`` or ``ibss`` will enable generation of images for ath10k devices Setting GLUON_MESH_MESH to ``11s`` or ``ibss`` will enable generation of images for ath10k devices

the generation of images for targets they're able to run only AP with 11s, like ralink or mediatek.
Setting GLUON_MESH_MESH to ``11s`` will aso list targets their able to run only AP + 11s. Defaults to ``11s``.
