+.BR drm\-driver: " .+  (mandatory)"
+The name this driver registered.
+.TP
+.BR drm\-pdev: " [0-9A-F]{4}:[0-9A-F]{2}:[0-9A-F]{2}.[0-9A-F]"
+For PCI devices this should contain the PCI slot address of the device
+in question.
+.TP
+.BR drm\-client-id: " [0-9]+"
+Unique value relating to the open DRM file descriptor used to
+distinguish duplicated and shared file descriptors.
+.P
+GPUs usually contain multiple execution engines. Each shall be given a
+stable and unique name
+.IR engine-name ,
+with possible values documented in the driver specific documentation.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-engine\- engine-name :\c
+\& [0-9]+ ns
+GPU engine utilization, time spent busy executing workloads for this client.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-engine\-capacity\- engine-name :\c
+\& [0-9]+
+Capacity of the engine if not 1, cannot be 0.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-cycles\- engine-name :\c
+\& [0-9]+
+Contains the number of busy cycles for the given engine.  Values are
+not required to be constantly monotonic, but are required to catch up
+with the previously reported larger value within a reasonable
+period. Upon observing a value lower than what was previously read,
+userspace is expected to stay with that larger previous value until a
+monotonic update is seen.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-total\-cycles\- engine-name :\c
+\& [0-9]+
+Contains the total number cycles for the given engine.  This is a
+timestamp in GPU unspecified unit that matches the update rate of
+drm\-cycles\-\fIengine-name\fP.
+For drivers that implement this interface,
+the engine utilization can be calculated entirely on the GPU clock
+domain, without considering the CPU sleep time between 2 samples.
+.P
+Each possible memory type which can be used to store buffer objects by
+the GPU in question shall be given a stable and unique name
+.IR region .
+The name "memory" is reserved to refer to normal system memory.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-memory\- region :\c
+\& [0-9]+ [KiB|MiB]
+The amount of storage currently consumed by the buffer objects belong
+to this client, in the respective memory region.
+.IP
+Default unit shall be bytes with optional unit specifiers of 'KiB' or 'MiB'
+indicating kibi- or mebi-bytes.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-shared\- region :\c
+\& [0-9]+ [KiB|MiB]
+The total size of buffers that are shared with another file (e.g., have more
+than a single handle).
+.TP
+.BI drm\-total\- region :\c
+\& [0-9]+ [KiB|MiB]
+The total size of buffers that including shared and private memory.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-resident\- region :\c
+\& [0-9]+ [KiB|MiB]
+The total size of buffers that are resident in the specified region.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-purgeable\- region :\c
+\& [0-9]+ [KiB|MiB]
+The total size of buffers that are purgeable.
+.TP
+.BI drm\-active\- region :\c
+\& [0-9]+ [KiB|MiB]
+The total size of buffers that are active on one or more engines.
