devattr(1M)                                                     devattr(1M)

NAME
     devattr - lists 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
     displayed in alphabetical order by attribute name. If attributes are
     given on the command line, only those are shown and they are displayed
     in command line order.

OPTIONS
     -v        Specifies verbose format. Attribute values are displayed in
               an attribute=value format.

     device    Defines the device whose attributes should be displayed. Can
               be the pathname of the device or the device alias.

     attribute Defines which attribute, or attributes, should be shown.
               Default is to show all attributes for a device. See the
               putdev(1M) manual page for a complete listing and descrip-
               tion of available attributes.
