 @c man begin DESCRIPTION
 
-Export QEMU disk image using NBD protocol.
+Export a QEMU disk image using the NBD protocol.
 
 @c man end
 
 @c man begin OPTIONS
+@var{filename} is a disk image filename, or a set of block
+driver options if @var{--image-opts} is specified.
+
+@var{dev} is an NBD device.
+
 @table @option
-@item @var{filename}
- is a disk image filename
+@item --object type,id=@var{id},...props...
+Define a new instance of the @var{type} object class identified by @var{id}.
+See the @code{qemu(1)} manual page for full details of the properties
+supported. The common object types that it makes sense to define are the
+@code{secret} object, which is used to supply passwords and/or encryption
+keys, and the @code{tls-creds} object, which is used to supply TLS
+credentials for the qemu-nbd server.
 @item -p, --port=@var{port}
-  port to listen on (default @samp{1024})
+The TCP port to listen on (default @samp{10809})
 @item -o, --offset=@var{offset}
-  offset into the image
+The offset into the image
 @item -b, --bind=@var{iface}
-  interface to bind to (default @samp{0.0.0.0})
+The interface to bind to (default @samp{0.0.0.0})
 @item -k, --socket=@var{path}
-  Use a unix socket with path @var{path}
+Use a unix socket with path @var{path}
+@item --image-opts
+Treat @var{filename} as a set of image options, instead of a plain
+filename. If this flag is specified, the @var{-f} flag should
+not be used, instead the '@code{format=}' option should be set.
+@item -f, --format=@var{fmt}
+Force the use of the block driver for format @var{fmt} instead of
+auto-detecting
 @item -r, --read-only
-  export read-only
+Export the disk as read-only
 @item -P, --partition=@var{num}
-  only expose partition @var{num}
+Only expose partition @var{num}
 @item -s, --snapshot
-  use snapshot file
+Use @var{filename} as an external snapshot, create a temporary
+file with backing_file=@var{filename}, redirect the write to
+the temporary one
+@item -l, --load-snapshot=@var{snapshot_param}
+Load an internal snapshot inside @var{filename} and export it
+as an read-only device, @var{snapshot_param} format is
+'snapshot.id=[ID],snapshot.name=[NAME]' or '[ID_OR_NAME]'
 @item -n, --nocache
-  disable host cache
+@itemx --cache=@var{cache}
+The cache mode to be used with the file.  See the documentation of
+the emulator's @code{-drive cache=...} option for allowed values.
+@item --aio=@var{aio}
+Set the asynchronous I/O mode between @samp{threads} (the default)
+and @samp{native} (Linux only).
+@item --discard=@var{discard}
+Control whether @dfn{discard} (also known as @dfn{trim} or @dfn{unmap})
+requests are ignored or passed to the filesystem.  @var{discard} is one of
+@samp{ignore} (or @samp{off}), @samp{unmap} (or @samp{on}).  The default is
+@samp{ignore}.
+@item --detect-zeroes=@var{detect-zeroes}
+Control the automatic conversion of plain zero writes by the OS to
+driver-specific optimized zero write commands.  @var{detect-zeroes} is one of
+@samp{off}, @samp{on} or @samp{unmap}.  @samp{unmap}
+converts a zero write to an unmap operation and can only be used if
+@var{discard} is set to @samp{unmap}.  The default is @samp{off}.
 @item -c, --connect=@var{dev}
-  connect @var{filename} to NBD device @var{dev}
+Connect @var{filename} to NBD device @var{dev}
 @item -d, --disconnect
-  disconnect the specified device
+Disconnect the device @var{dev}
 @item -e, --shared=@var{num}
-  device can be shared by @var{num} clients (default @samp{1})
+Allow up to @var{num} clients to share the device (default @samp{1})
 @item -t, --persistent
-  don't exit on the last connection
+Don't exit on the last connection
+@item -x, --export-name=@var{name}
+Set the NBD volume export name. This switches the server to use
+the new style NBD protocol negotiation
+@item -D, --description=@var{description}
+Set the NBD volume export description, as a human-readable
+string. Requires the use of @option{-x}
+@item --tls-creds=ID
+Enable mandatory TLS encryption for the server by setting the ID
+of the TLS credentials object previously created with the --object
+option.
+@item --fork
+Fork off the server process and exit the parent once the server is running.
