When 2 or more repos have the same software, can I make opkg choose the repo I want with some options like "priority"?
All official reps should have the same content,
what do you want to prioritize?
The short answer is no, it does not - opkg is small, and with the lack of size comes the lack of features.

When I compile a firmware, even though I am using the stable branch, all kmod-* packages will become imcompatible. So I wonder if I can user "priority" to let opkg prefer my own kmod-* packages.
However now its solved. I found that if I have my build config based on the official config file (for example https://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/openwrt/releases/21.02.3/targets/ramips/mt7621/config.buildinfo) I will have a full openwrt_core repo under the "packages" dir. I just need to replace the openwrt_core section in distfeed.conf to get what I want.
*Yep, this is not a solution, but in fact this problem is nonsense. OpenWrt is not like typical distros like debian and it does not need something like "source priority".
