+.SH NAME
+e2freefrag \- report free space fragmentation information
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B e2freefrag
+[
+.B \-c chunk_kb
+]
+[
+.B \-h
+]
+.B filesys
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B e2freefrag
+is used to report free space fragmentation on ext2/3/4 file systems.
+.I filesys
+is the file system device name (e.g.
+.IR /dev/hdc1 ", " /dev/md0 ).
+The
+.B e2freefrag
+program will scan the block bitmap information to check how many free blocks
+are present as contiguous and aligned free space. The percentage of contiguous
+free blocks of size and of alignment
+.I chunk_kb
+is reported.  It also displays the minimum/maximum/average free chunk size in
+the file system, along with a histogram of all free chunks.  This information
+can be used to gauge the level of free space fragmentation in the file system.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.BI \-c " chunk_kb"
+If a chunk size is specified, then
+.B e2freefrag
+will print how many free chunks of size
+.I chunk_kb
+are available in units of kilobytes (Kb).  The chunk size must be a
+power of two and be larger than file system block size.
+.TP
+.B \-h
+Print the usage of the program.
