The following options are supported:
-f
Display only specific fields. See DESCRIPTION for
supported statistics.
-h
Display help message.
-o
Report statistics to a file instead of the standard
output.
-s
Display data with a specified separator (default: 2
spaces).

-v
Show field headers and definitions
The following operands are supported:

arcstat was originally written by Neelakanth Nadgir and supported
only ZFS ARC statistics. Mike Harsch updated it to support L2ARC
statistics.
