+.Ar device ...
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility erases specified region of the device.
+It is only relevant for flash based storage devices that use wear-leveling
+algorithms.
+.Sy All erased data is lost.
+.Pp
+The following options are available:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fl N
+Do not actually erase anything but show what it would do (dry run).
+Implies
+.Fl v .
+This is the default. Overrides
+.Fl f .
+.It Fl f
+Perform the operation. Overrides
+.Fl N .
+.It Fl l Xo
+.Sm off
+.Ar offset
+.Op Cm K | k | M | m | G | g | T | t
+.Sm on
+.Xc
+.It Fl o Xo
+.Sm off
+.Ar offset
+.Op Cm K | k | M | m | G | g | T | t
+.Sm on
+.Xc
+Specify the length
+.Fl l
+of the region to trim or its offset
+.Fl o
+from the beginning of the device.
+.Sy The whole device is erased by default
+unless one or both of these options are presented.
+.Pp
+The argument may be suffixed with one of
+.Cm K ,
+.Cm M ,
+.Cm G
+or
+.Cm T
+(either upper or lower case) to indicate a multiple of
+Kilobytes, Megabytes, Gigabytes or Terabytes
+respectively.
+.It Fl q
+Do not output anything except of possible error messages (quiet mode).
+Overrides
+.Fl v .
+.It Fl r Ar rfile
+Uses the length of given
+.Ar rfile
+as length of the region to erase.
+.Sy The whole device is erased by default.
+.It Fl v
+Show offset and length of actual region being erased, in bytes.
+.El
+.Pp
+Later options override previous ones.
+.Pp
+Note that actual success of the operation depends of underlying
+device driver such as
+.Xr ada 4 ,
+.Xr da 4
+and others.
+Refer to corresponding manual pages for detail on possible caveats
+in low level support for ATA TRIM or SCSI UNMAP commands.
+.Sh EXIT STATUS
+.Ex -std
+If the final erase operation fails for an argument, the
+.Nm
+utility returns exit code 1.
+It can also return one of the exit codes defined in
+.Xr sysexits 3 ,
+as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width ".Dv EX_UNAVAILABLE"
+.It Dv EX_USAGE
+The specified offset or length of the region is incorrect.
+.It Dv EX_OSERR
+There is no enough memory to proceed.
+.It Dv EX_NOINPUT
+The specified
+.Ar rfile
+cannot be opened (perhaps, it does not exist).
+.It Dv EX_IOERR
+The specified
+.Ar rfile
+cannot be examined for its size due to some system input/output error.
+.It Dv EX_DATAERR
+The specified
+.Ar rfile
+is not regular file, directory nor special device, so its size
+cannot be examined.
+.It Dv EX_UNAVAILABLE
+The specified
+.Ar rfile
+is special device file not supporting DIOCGMEDIASIZE
+.Xr ioctl 2
+(probably not a disk), so its size cannot be examined.
+.El
+.Sh SEE ALSO
