blkstat [-f fstype ] [-i imgtype] [-o imgoffset] [-b dev_sector_size] [-vV] image [images] addr
blkstat displays the allocation status of the given data unit. blkstat was called dstat in TSK versions prior to 3.0.0.
Specify the file system type. Use '-f list' to list the supported file system types. If not given, autodetection methods are used.
