+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+For the NVMe device given, sends an identify controller command and provides the result and returned structure\&.
+.sp
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1)\&.
+.sp
+On success, the structure may be returned in one of several ways depending on the option flags; the structure may be parsed by the program or the raw buffer may be printed to stdout\&.
+.sp
+If having the program decode the output for readability, this version will decode Intel vendor unique portions of the structure\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\-b, \-\-raw\-binary
+.RS 4
+Print the raw buffer to stdout\&. Structure is not parsed by program\&. This overrides the vendor specific and human readable options\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-v, \-\-vendor\-specific
+.RS 4
+In addition to parsing known fields, this option will dump the vendor specific region of the structure in hex with ascii interpretation\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-H, \-\-human\-readable
+.RS 4
+This option will parse and format many of the bit fields into human\-readable formats\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-o <format>, \-\-output\-format=<format>
+.RS 4
+Set the reporting format to
+\fInormal\fR,
+\fIjson\fR, or
+\fIbinary\fR\&. Only one output format can be used at a time\&.
