This overrides the vendor specific and human readable options. + +-v:: +--vendor-specific:: + In addition to parsing known fields, this option will dump + the vendor specific region of the structure in hex with ascii + interpretation. + +-H:: +--human-readable:: + This option will parse and format many of the bit fields + into human-readable formats. + +-o <format>:: +--output-format=<format>:: + Set the reporting format to 'normal', 'json', or + 'binary'.
