NAME
       devattr - display device attributes

SYNOPSIS
       devattr [-v] device [attribute]...

DESCRIPTION
       devattr	displays the values for a device's attributes. The display can
       be presented in two formats. Used without  the	-v  option,  only  the
       attribute  values  are  shown. Used with the  -v option, the attributes
       are shown in an	attribute=value format. When no attributes  are	 given
       on  the command line, all attributes for the  specified device are dis‐
       played in alphabetical order by attribute name. If attributes are given
       on  the	command	 line,	only those attributes  are shown, displayed in
       command line order.
