  ================================================================================
  
  =====================
  DRIVER LOADING
  =====================
  
  	o. Copy the firmware image (e.g. usb8388.bin) to /lib/firmware/
  
  	o. Load driver by using the following command:
  
  		insmod usb8388.ko [fw_name=usb8388.bin]
  
  =========================
  ETHTOOL
  =========================
  
  
  Use the -i option to retrieve version information from the driver.
  
  # ethtool -i eth0
  driver: libertas
  version: COMM-USB8388-318.p4
  firmware-version: 5.110.7
  bus-info:
  
  Use the -e option to read the EEPROM contents of the card.
  
  	Usage:
  	ethtool -e ethX [raw on|off] [offset N] [length N]
  
         -e     retrieves and prints an EEPROM dump for the  specified  ethernet
                device.   When raw is enabled, then it dumps the raw EEPROM data
                to stdout. The length and offset parameters allow  dumping  cer-
                tain portions of the EEPROM.  Default is to dump the entire EEP-
                ROM.
  
  # ethtool -e eth0 offset 0 length 16
  Offset          Values
  ------          ------
  0x0000          38 33 30 58 00 00 34 f4 00 00 10 00 00 c4 17 00
  
  ========================
  DEBUGFS COMMANDS
  ========================
  
  those commands are used via debugfs interface
  
  ===========
  rdmac
  rdbbp
  rdrf
  	These commands are used to read the MAC, BBP and RF registers from the
  	card.  These commands take one parameter that specifies the offset
  	location that is to be read.  This parameter must be specified in
  	hexadecimal (its possible to precede preceding the number with a "0x").
  
  	Path: /sys/kernel/debug/libertas_wireless/ethX/registers/
  
  	Usage:
  		echo "0xa123" > rdmac ; cat rdmac
  		echo "0xa123" > rdbbp ; cat rdbbp
  		echo "0xa123" > rdrf ; cat rdrf
  wrmac
  wrbbp
  wrrf
  	These commands are used to write the MAC, BBP and RF registers in the
  	card.  These commands take two parameters that specify the offset
  	location and the value that is to be written. This parameters must
  	be specified in hexadecimal (its possible to precede the number
  	with a "0x").
  
  	Usage:
  		echo "0xa123 0xaa" > wrmac
  		echo "0xa123 0xaa" > wrbbp
  		echo "0xa123 0xaa" > wrrf
  
  sleepparams
  	This command is used to set the sleepclock configurations
  
  	Path: /sys/kernel/debug/libertas_wireless/ethX/
  
  	Usage:
  		cat sleepparams: reads the current sleepclock configuration
  
  		echo "p1 p2 p3 p4 p5 p6" > sleepparams: writes the sleepclock configuration.
  
  		where:
  			p1 is Sleep clock error in ppm (0-65535)
  			p2 is Wakeup offset in usec (0-65535)
  			p3 is Clock stabilization time in usec (0-65535)
  			p4 is Control periodic calibration (0-2)
  			p5 is Control the use of external sleep clock (0-2)
  			p6 is reserved for debug (0-65535)
  
  subscribed_events
  
  	The subscribed_events directory contains the interface for the
  	subscribed events API.
  
  	Path: /sys/kernel/debug/libertas_wireless/ethX/subscribed_events/
  
  	Each event is represented by a filename. Each filename consists of the
  	following three fields:
  	Value Frequency Subscribed
  
  	To read the current values for a given event, do:
  		cat event
  	To set the current values, do:
  		echo "60 2 1" > event
  
  	Frequency field specifies the reporting frequency for this event.
  	If it is set to 0, then the event is reported only once, and then
  	automatically unsubscribed. If it is set to 1, then the event is
  	reported every time it occurs. If it is set to N, then the event is
  	reported every Nth time it occurs.
  
  	beacon_missed
  	Value field specifies the number of consecutive missing beacons which
  	triggers the LINK_LOSS event. This event is generated only once after
  	which the firmware resets its state. At initialization, the LINK_LOSS
  	event is subscribed by default. The default value of MissedBeacons is
  	60.
  
  	failure_count
  	Value field specifies the consecutive failure count threshold which
  	triggers the generation of the MAX_FAIL event. Once this event is
  	generated, the consecutive failure count is reset to 0.
  	At initialization, the MAX_FAIL event is NOT subscribed by
  	default.
  
  	high_rssi
  	This event is generated when the average received RSSI in beacons goes
  	above a threshold, specified by Value.
  
  	low_rssi
  	This event is generated when the average received RSSI in beacons goes
  	below a threshold, specified by Value.
  
  	high_snr
  	This event is generated when the average received SNR in beacons goes
  	above a threshold, specified by Value.
  
  	low_snr
  	This event is generated when the average received SNR in beacons goes
  	below a threshold, specified by Value.
  
  extscan
  	This command is used to do a specific scan.
  
  	Path: /sys/kernel/debug/libertas_wireless/ethX/
  
  	Usage: echo "SSID" > extscan
  
  	Example:
  		echo "LINKSYS-AP" > extscan
  
  	To see the results of use getscantable command.
  
  getscantable
  
  	Display the current contents of the driver scan table (ie. get the
  	scan results).
  
  	Path: /sys/kernel/debug/libertas_wireless/ethX/
  
  	Usage:
  		cat getscantable
  
  setuserscan
  	Initiate a customized scan and retrieve the results
  
  
  	Path: /sys/kernel/debug/libertas_wireless/ethX/
  
      Usage:
         echo "[ARGS]" > setuserscan
  
           where [ARGS]:
  
        bssid=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx  specify a BSSID filter for the scan
        ssid="[SSID]"            specify a SSID filter for the scan
        keep=[0 or 1]            keep the previous scan results (1), discard (0)
        dur=[scan time]          time to scan for each channel in milliseconds
        type=[1,2,3]             BSS type: 1 (Infra), 2(Adhoc), 3(Any)
  
      Any combination of the above arguments can be supplied on the command
      line. If dur tokens are absent, the driver default setting will be used.
      The bssid and ssid fields, if blank, will produce an unfiltered scan.
      The type field will default to 3 (Any) and the keep field will default
      to 0 (Discard).
  
      Examples:
      1) Perform a passive scan on all channels for 20 ms per channel:
              echo "dur=20" > setuserscan
  
      2) Perform an active scan for a specific SSID:
              echo "ssid="TestAP"" > setuserscan
  
      3) Scan all available channels (B/G, A bands) for a specific BSSID, keep
         the current scan table intact, update existing or append new scan data:
              echo "bssid=00:50:43:20:12:82 keep=1" > setuserscan
  
      4) Scan for all infrastructure networks.
         Keep the previous scan table intact. Update any duplicate BSSID/SSID
         matches with the new scan data:
              echo "type=1 keep=1" > setuserscan
  
      All entries in the scan table (not just the new scan data when keep=1)
      will be displayed upon completion by use of the getscantable ioctl.
  
  hostsleep
  	This command is used to enable/disable host sleep.
  	Note: Host sleep parameters should be configured using
  	"ethtool -s ethX wol X" command before enabling host sleep.
  
  	Path: /sys/kernel/debug/libertas_wireless/ethX/
  
  	Usage:
  		cat hostsleep: reads the current hostsleep state
  		echo "1" > hostsleep : enable host sleep.
  		echo "0" > hostsleep : disable host sleep
