+ata_id \- udev callout to read product/serial number from ATA drives
+.SH SYNOPSIS

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.B ata_id
+is normally called from a udev rule, to provide udev with a unique string and

+information to create symlinks in /dev/disk/by-id and /dev/disk/by-label
+to the real device node.
+.SH USAGE
+.B ata_id
+opens the blockdevice node specified at the commandline and prints the
+information chosen by the options.
+.SH OPTIONS
+The following commandline switches are supported to specify what ata_id
+should print:
