================ BPFTOOL ================ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- tool for inspection and simple manipulation of eBPF programs and maps ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- :Manual section: 8 SYNOPSIS ======== **bpftool** [*OPTIONS*] *OBJECT* { *COMMAND* | **help** } **bpftool** **batch file** *FILE* **bpftool** **version** *OBJECT* := { **map** | **program** | **cgroup** | **perf** | **net** | **feature** } *OPTIONS* := { { **-V** | **--version** } | { **-h** | **--help** } | { **-j** | **--json** } [{ **-p** | **--pretty** }] } *MAP-COMMANDS* := { **show** | **list** | **create** | **dump** | **update** | **lookup** | **getnext** | **delete** | **pin** | **event_pipe** | **help** } *PROG-COMMANDS* := { **show** | **list** | **dump jited** | **dump xlated** | **pin** | **load** | **attach** | **detach** | **help** } *CGROUP-COMMANDS* := { **show** | **list** | **attach** | **detach** | **help** } *PERF-COMMANDS* := { **show** | **list** | **help** } *NET-COMMANDS* := { **show** | **list** | **help** } *FEATURE-COMMANDS* := { **probe** | **help** } DESCRIPTION =========== *bpftool* allows for inspection and simple modification of BPF objects on the system. Note that format of the output of all tools is not guaranteed to be stable and should not be depended upon. OPTIONS ======= -h, --help Print short help message (similar to **bpftool help**). -V, --version Print version number (similar to **bpftool version**). -j, --json Generate JSON output. For commands that cannot produce JSON, this option has no effect. -p, --pretty Generate human-readable JSON output. Implies **-j**. -m, --mapcompat Allow loading maps with unknown map definitions. -n, --nomount Do not automatically attempt to mount any virtual file system (such as tracefs or BPF virtual file system) when necessary. -d, --debug Print all logs available, even debug-level information. This includes logs from libbpf as well as from the verifier, when attempting to load programs.
