Comprehensive statistics are offered at the driver level via the [Linux sysfs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sysfs#:~:text=sysfs%20is%20a%20pseudo%20file,user%20space%20through%20virtual%20files.).
[[Quick start](#Quick-start)]
[[Sysfs explanation](#Sysfs-explanation)]
[[Statistics variable file meaning](#Statistics-variable-file-meaning)]
All operations should be done on board in openwifi directory, not in host PC.
## Quick start
Enable the driver level statistics (after openwifi up and running)
```
./stat_enable.sh
```
Show the statistics
```
./tx_stat_show.sh
./tx_prio_queue_show.sh
./rx_stat_show.sh
./rx_gain_show.sh
```
Clear the stattistics
```
./tx_stat_show.sh clear
./tx_prio_queue_show.sh clear
./rx_stat_show.sh clear
```
To only show the statistics for the link with a specific peer node
```
./set_rx_target_sender_mac_addr.sh c83caf93
(If the peer node MAC address is 00:80:c8:3c:af:93)
```
To show the statistics of all (not filtered by the peer node MAC address)
```
./set_rx_target_sender_mac_addr.sh 0
```
To show the peer node MAC address for statistics
```
./set_rx_target_sender_mac_addr.sh
```
To see the statistics of ACK packet, run this before above scripts
```
./set_rx_monitor_all.sh
```
Disable the statistics of ACK packet, run this before above scripts
```
./set_rx_monitor_all.sh 0
```
Disable the driver level statistics (after openwifi up and running)
```
./stat_enable.sh 0
```
## Sysfs explanation
For user, as you can check in those scripts above, the sysfs is a set of files that can be operated in the command line for communicating with kernel module. You can find these files on zcu102 board at
```
/sys/devices/platform/fpga-axi@0/fpga-axi@0:sdr
```
On othe boards at
```
/sys/devices/soc0/fpga-axi@0/fpga-axi@0:sdr
```
## Statistics variable file meaning
These statistics names are the same as the file names (in those scripts) and variable names in the sdr.c. Do search these names in sdr.c to understand exact meaning of these statistics.
