DESCRIPTION
     The mpsutil utility can be used to display or modify various parameters
     on LSI Fusion-MPS 2 controllers.

     The mprutil utility can be used to display or modify various parameters
     on LSI Fusion-MPS 3 controllers.

     The mprutil utility behave identically to mpsutil.  (same program)

     Each invocation of mpsutil consists of zero or more global options
     followed by a command.  Commands may support additional optional or
     required arguments after the command.

     Currently one global option is supported:

     -u unit
             unit specifies the unit of the controller to work with.  If no
             unit is specified, then unit 0 is used.

     The mpsutil utility supports several different groups of commands.  The
     first group of commands provide information about the controller.  The
     second group of commands are used to manager controller-wide operations.

     The informational commands include:

     version
             Displays the version of mpsutil.

     show adapter
             Displays information about the controller such as the model
             number or firmware version.

     show adapters
             Displays a summary of all adapters.

     show all
             Displays all devices, expanders and enclosures.

     show devices
             Displays all devices.

     show expanders
             Displays all expanders.

     show enclosures
             Displays all enclosures.

     show iocfacts
             Displays IOC Facts messages.

     show cfgpage page [num] [addr]
             Dump raw config page in hex.

     Controller management commands include:

     set ncq [enable|disable]
             Enables or disables NCQ in the NVRAM of the card.

     flash save [firmware|bios] [file]
             Save the firmware or bios from the controller into a local file.
             If no file is specified then the file will be named firmware or
             bios.

     flash update [firmware|bios] file
             Replace the firmware or bios from the controller with the one
             specified via file.
