+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ffsinfo
+.Nd "dump all meta information of an existing ufs file system"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Fl g Ar cylinder_group
+.Op Fl i Ar inode
+.Op Fl l Ar level
+.Op Fl o Ar outfile
+.Ar special | file
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility extends the
+.Xr dumpfs 8
+utility.
+.Pp
+The output is appended to the file
+.Pa outfile .
+Also expect the output file to be rather large.
+Up to 2 percent of the size of the specified file system is not uncommon.
+.Pp
+The following options are available:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fl g Ar cylinder_group
+This restricts the dump to information about this cylinder group only.
+Here
+.Ar 0
+means the first cylinder group and
+.Ar -1
+the last one.
+.It Fl i Ar inode
+This restricts the dump to information about this particular inode only.
+Here the minimum acceptable inode is
+.Ar 2 .
+If this option is omitted but a cylinder group is defined then only inodes
+within that cylinder group are dumped.
+.It Fl l Ar level
+The level of detail which will be dumped.
+This value defaults to
+.Ar 255
+and is the
+.Dq bitwise or
+of the following table:
+.Pp
+.Bl -hang -width indent -compact
+.It Ar 0x001
+initial superblock
+.It Ar 0x002
+superblock copies in each cylinder group
+.It Ar 0x004
+cylinder group summary in initial cylinder group
+.It Ar 0x008
+cylinder group information
+.It Ar 0x010
+inode allocation bitmap
+.It Ar 0x020
+fragment allocation bitmap
+.It Ar 0x040
+cluster maps and summary
+.It Ar 0x100
+inode information
+.It Ar 0x200
+indirect block dump
+.El
+.It Fl o Ar outfile
+This sets the output filename where the dump is written to, and
+must be specified.
+If
+.Fl
+is provided, output will be sent to stdout.
+.El
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+.Dl ffsinfo -o /var/tmp/ffsinfo -l 1023 /dev/md0
+.Pp
+will dump
+.Pa /dev/md0
+to
+.Pa /var/tmp/ffsinfo
+with all available information.

+.Sh BUGS
+Snapshots are handled like plain files.
+They should get their own level to provide for independent control of the
+amount of what gets dumped.
+It probably also makes sense to some extend to dump the snapshot as a
+file system.
