If no probe target is specified, probing the kernel is the default behaviour. + When the **unprivileged** keyword is used, bpftool will dump + only the features available to a user who does not have the + **CAP_SYS_ADMIN** capability set. The features available in + that case usually represent a small subset of the parameters + supported by the system. Unprivileged users MUST use the + **unprivileged** keyword: This is to avoid misdetection if + bpftool is inadvertently run as non-root, for example.
