How to use "iw" is a googling away from you.

If you do nonstandard stuff, e.g. trying things out, I'd suggest
module parameters or the debugfs. "iw" isn't good for such
quick-n-dirty stuff, because iw goes the path
nl80211->cfg80211->mac80211->driver (or something like this). Lots of
hoops.

If you aren't used to userspace->kernel interfaces, then maybe
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~arkeller/linux/kernel_user_space_howto.html
can help you. It's a tad old, but gives a nice overview.

Note that a patch with a debugfs-interface has probably zero chance
get to included in the mainline Linux kernel. If your work is usable
to the general audience and you intent to submit your patches, you
should use something else.
