+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+For the NVMe device given, send an nvme Get LBA Status admin command and provides the results\&.
+.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 returned get lba data structure may be returned in one of several ways depending on the option flags; the structure may parsed by the program and printed in a readable format or the raw buffer may be printed to stdout for another program to parse\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
