+.. _cephfs-tool:
+
+===========
+cephfs-tool
+===========
+
+``cephfs-tool`` is a standalone C++ utility designed to interact directly with
+``libcephfs``. The initial implementation focuses on a ``bench`` command to
+measure library performance. This allows developers and administrators to
+benchmark the userspace library isolated from FUSE or kernel client overhead.
+
+Key features include:
+
+* Multi-threaded Read/Write throughput benchmarking.
+* Configurable block sizes, file counts, and fsync intervals.
+* Detailed statistical reporting (Mean, Std Dev, Min/Max) for throughput and IOPS.
+* Support for specific CephFS user/group impersonation (UID/GID) via ``ceph_mount_perms_set``.
+
+Building
+========
+
+The tool can be built outside of the Ceph source tree:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    g++ --std=c++20 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O3 -o cephfs-tool cephfs-tool.cc -lcephfs -lpthread -lboost_program_options
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    cephfs-tool [general-options] <command> [command-options]
+
+Commands
+--------
+
+bench
