+NAME
+----
+perf-iostat - Show I/O performance metrics
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'perf iostat' list
+'perf iostat' <ports> \-- <command> [<options>]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Mode is intended to provide four I/O performance metrics per each PCIe root port:
+
+- Inbound Read   - I/O devices below root port read from the host memory, in MB
+
+- Inbound Write  - I/O devices below root port write to the host memory, in MB
+
+- Outbound Read  - CPU reads from I/O devices below root port, in MB
+
+- Outbound Write - CPU writes to I/O devices below root port, in MB
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+<command>...::
+	Any command you can specify in a shell.
+
+list::
+	List all PCIe root ports.
+
+<ports>::
+	Select the root ports for monitoring. Comma-separated list is supported.
+
+EXAMPLES
+--------
+
+1. List all PCIe root ports (example for 2-S platform):
+
+   $ perf iostat list
+   S0-uncore_iio_0<0000:00>
+   S1-uncore_iio_0<0000:80>
+   S0-uncore_iio_1<0000:17>
+   S1-uncore_iio_1<0000:85>
+   S0-uncore_iio_2<0000:3a>
+   S1-uncore_iio_2<0000:ae>
+   S0-uncore_iio_3<0000:5d>
+   S1-uncore_iio_3<0000:d7>
+
+2. Collect metrics for all PCIe root ports:
+
+   $ perf iostat -- dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/nvme0n1 bs=1M oflag=direct
+   357708+0 records in
+   357707+0 records out
+   375083606016 bytes (375 GB, 349 GiB) copied, 215.974 s, 1.7 GB/s
+
+    Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
+
+      port             Inbound Read(MB)    Inbound Write(MB)    Outbound Read(MB)   Outbound Write(MB)
+   0000:00                    1                    0                    2                    3
+   0000:80                    0                    0                    0                    0
+   0000:17               352552                   43                    0                   21
+   0000:85                    0                    0                    0                    0
+   0000:3a                    3                    0                    0                    0
+   0000:ae                    0                    0                    0                    0
+   0000:5d                    0                    0                    0                    0
+   0000:d7                    0                    0                    0                    0
+
+3. Collect metrics for comma-separated list of PCIe root ports:
+
+   $ perf iostat 0000:17,0:3a -- dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/nvme0n1 bs=1M oflag=direct
+   357708+0 records in
+   357707+0 records out
+   375083606016 bytes (375 GB, 349 GiB) copied, 197.08 s, 1.9 GB/s
+
+    Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
+
+      port             Inbound Read(MB)    Inbound Write(MB)    Outbound Read(MB)   Outbound Write(MB)
+   0000:17               358559                   44                    0                   22
+   0000:3a                    3                    2                    0                    0
