This driver implements basic functionality needed to initialize and configure Prism2-based cards, to send and receive frames, and to gather statistics.

In addition, it includes an implementation of the following IEEE 802.11 functions:

The driver has also various features for development debugging and for researching IEEE 802.11 environments like access to hardware configuration records, I/O registers, and frames with 802.11 headers.
