+# Simple management of null_blk devices, useful for zoned device testing
+# Version: 0.1
+#
+# Commands:
+#
+# nullb setup
+# - load required modules and mount configfs
+#
+# nullb create [-s size] [-z zonesize]
+# - create a new device with given sizes, allocating the first free indes, #
+#   device is /dev/nullb$index
+#
+# nullb ls
+# nullb list
+# - show table of created null_blk devices, size and zone sizes
+#
+# nullb rm NAME
+# nullb delete NAME
+# - delete existing null_blk device by name, must match the device node name
+#   like 'nullb0'
+
+CMD="$1"
