+.Sh COMMAND DESCRIPTION
+Controllers and chips are arranged into a simple hierarchy.
+There can be up to 4 controllers configured, each with 4 chip select (CS) lines.
+A given chip is connected to one of the chip selects.
+.Pp
+Controllers are specified as
+.Aq ctrl_no ;
+chip selects are specified as
+.Aq cs_no .
+.Bl -tag -width periphlist
+.It Ic status
+Gets controller(s) status. If
+.Fl a
+or
+.Fl -all
+flag is specified - command will print status of every controller
+currently available.
+Optional flag
+.Fl v
+causes printing complete information about the controller, and all
+chips attached to it.
+.It Ic conf
+Reads simulator configuration from a specified file (this includes
+the simulation "layout" i.e. controllers-chips assignments).
+Configuration changes for an already started simulation require a
+full stop-start cycle in order to take effect i.e.:
+.Pp
+.Bl -column
+.It nandsim stop ...
+.It nandsim destroy ...
+.Pp
+.It << edit config file >>
+.Pp
+.It nandsim conf ...
+.It nandsim start ...
+.El
+.It Ic mod
+Alters simulator parameters on-the-fly.
+If controller number and CS pair is not specified, the general
+simulator parameters (not specific to a controller or a chip) will be modified.
+Changing chip's parameters requires specifying both controller number and CS
+to which the given chip is connected.
+Parameters which can be altered:
+.Pp
+General simulator related:
+.Bl -tag -width flag
+.It Fl l Aq log_level
+change logging level to
+.Aq log_level
+.El
+.Pp
+Chip related:
+.Bl -tag -width flag
+.It Fl p Aq prog_time
+change prog time for specified chip to
+.Aq prog_time
+.It Fl e Aq erase_time
+change erase time for specified chip to
+.Aq erase_time
+.It Fl r Aq read_time
+change read time for specified chip to
+.Aq read_time
+.It Fl E Aq error_ratio
+change error ratio for specified chip to
+.Aq error_ratio .
+Error ratio is a number of errors per million read/write bytes.
+.El
+.Pp
+Additionally, flag
+.Fl h
+will list parameters which can be altered.
+.El
+.Bl -tag -width periphlist
+.It Ic bb
+Marks/unmarks a specified block as bad.
+To mark/unmark the bad condition an a block, the following parameters
+have to be supplied: controller number, CS number, and at least one
+block number.
+It is possible to specify multiple blocks, by separating blocks numbers
+with a comma.
+The following options can be used for the 'bb' command:
+.Bl -tag -width flag
+.It Fl U
+unmark the bad previously marked block as bad.
+.It Fl L
+list all blocks marked as bad on a given chip.
+.El
+.It Ic log
+Prints activity log of the specified controller to stdout; if
+controller number is not specifed, logs for all available
+controllers are printed.
+.It Ic stats
+Print statistics of the selected controller, chip and page.
+Statistics includes read count, write count, raw read count, raw
+write count, ECC stats (succeeded corrections, failed correction).
+.It Ic dump
+Dumps a snaphot of a single chip (including data and bad blocks
+information, wearout level) into the file.
+.It Ic restore
+Restores chip state from a dump-file snapshot (produced previously
+with the 'dump' command).
+.It Ic start
+Starts a controller i.e. the simulation.
+.It Ic stop
+Stops an already started controller; if the controller number is not
+supplied, attempts to stop all currently working controllers.
+.It Ic destroy
+Removes existing active chip/controller and its configuration from
+memory and releases the resources.
+Specifying flag
+.Fl a
+or
+.Fl -all
+causes removal of every chip and controller.
+Controller must be stopped in order to be destroyed.
+.It Ic error
+Directly overwrites a certain number of bytes in the specified page
+at a given offset with a supplied pattern (which mimics the
+corruption of flash contents).
+.It Ic help
+Prints synopsis,
+.Fl v
+gives more verbose output.
+.It Ic freeze
+Stops simulation of given controller (simulates power-loss).
+All commands issues to any chip on this controller are ignored.
