NAME
       lsblk - list block devices
SYNOPSIS
       lsblk [options] [device...]
DESCRIPTION
       lsblk  lists  information  about  all  available or the specified block
       devices.  The lsblk command reads the sysfs filesystem to gather infor-
       mation.
       The  command prints all block devices (except RAM disks) in a tree-like
       format by default.  Use lsblk --help to get a  list  of  all  available
       columns.
       The  default  output,  as  well as the default output from options like
       --fs and --topology, is subject to change.  So whenever  possible,  you
       should  avoid using default outputs in your scripts.  Always explicitly
       define expected columns by using --output columns-list in  environments
       where a stable output is required.
OPTIONS
       -a, --all
              Also list empty devices.  (By default they are skipped.)
       -b, --bytes
              Print  the  SIZE column in bytes rather than in a human-readable
              format.
       -D, --discard
              Print  information  about  the  discarding  capabilities  (TRIM,
              UNMAP) for each device.
       -d, --nodeps
              Do  not  print  holder  devices  or  slaves.  For example, lsblk
              --nodeps /dev/sda prints information about the sda device only.
       -e, --exclude list
              Exclude the devices specified by  the  comma-separated  list  of
              major  device  numbers.   Note  that  RAM  disks  (major=1)  are
              excluded by default.  The filter is  applied  to  the  top-level
              devices only.
       -f, --fs
              Output  info  about  filesystems.   This option is equivalent to
              -o NAME,FSTYPE,LABEL,MOUNTPOINT.  The authoritative  information
              about filesystems and raids is provided by the blkid(8) command.
       -h, --help
              Print a help text and exit.
       -I, --include list
              Include  devices  specified by the comma-separated list of major
              device numbers.  The filter is applied to the top-level  devices
              only.
       -i, --ascii
              Use ASCII characters for tree formatting.
       -l, --list
              Produce output in the form of a list.
       -m, --perms
              Output  info about device owner, group and mode.  This option is
              equivalent to -o NAME,SIZE,OWNER,GROUP,MODE.
       -n, --noheadings
              Do not print a header line.
       -o, --output list
              Specify which output columns to print.  Use --help to get a list
              of all supported columns.
              The default list of columns may be extended if list is specified
              in the format +list (e.g. lsblk -o +UUID).
       -P, --pairs
              Produce output in the form of  key="value"  pairs.   All  poten-
              tially unsafe characters are hex-escaped (\x<code>).
       -p, --paths
              Print full device paths.
       -r, --raw
              Produce output in raw format.  All potentially unsafe characters
              are hex-escaped (\x<code>) in the NAME, KNAME, LABEL,  PARTLABEL
              and MOUNTPOINT columns.
       -S, --scsi
              Output info about SCSI devices only.  All partitions, slaves and
              holder devices are ignored.
       -s, --inverse
              Print dependencies in inverse order.
       -t, --topology
              Output info about block-device topology.  This option is equiva-
              lent       to       -o NAME,ALIGNMENT,MIN-IO,OPT-IO,PHY-SEC,LOG-
              SEC,ROTA,SCHED,RQ-SIZE,WSAME.
       -V, --version
              Output version information and exit.
NOTES
       For partitions, some information (e.g. queue attributes)  is  inherited
       from the parent device.
       The  lsblk  command  needs  to  be able to look up each block device by
       major:minor numbers, which is done by using /sys/dev/block.  This sysfs
       block  directory  appeared in kernel 2.6.27 (October 2008).  In case of
       problems with a new enough kernel, check that CONFIG_SYSFS was  enabled
       at the time of the kernel build.
