================ 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** } *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** } 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.
