+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Userspace helper to display quota information for the Linux SMB client file system (CIFS)
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+:Manual section: 1
+
+********
+SYNOPSIS
+********
+
+  smb2quota [-h] {options} {file system object}
+
+***********
+DESCRIPTION
+***********
+
+This tool is part of the cifs-utils suite.
+
+`smb2quota` is a userspace helper program for the Linux SMB
+client file system (CIFS). 
+
+This tool works by making an CIFS_QUERY_INFO IOCTL call to the Linux
+SMB client which in turn issues a SMB Query Info request and returns
+the result.
+
+*******
+OPTIONS
+*******
+`--help/-h`: Print help explaining the command line options.
+
+`-tabular/-t`: Print quota information for the volume in tabular format.
+Amount Used | Quota Limit | Warning Level | SID  
+
+`-csv/-c`: Print quota information for the volume in csv format.
+SID,Amount Used,Quota Limit,Warning Level
+
+`-list/-l`: Print quota information for the volume in raw format.
+- SID 
+- Quota Used
+- Quota Threshold

+*****
+NOTES
+*****
+
+Kernel support for smb2quota requires the CIFS_QUERY_INFO
+IOCTL which was initially introduced in the 4.20 kernel and is only
+implemented for mount points using SMB2 or above (see mount.cifs(8)
+`vers` option).

+The Linux CIFS Mailing list is the preferred place to ask questions
+regarding these programs.
