SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause) + +-h, --help + Print short help message (similar to **bpftool help**). + +-V, --version + Print bpftool's version number (similar to **bpftool version**), the + number of the libbpf version in use, and optional features that were + included when bpftool was compiled. Optional features include linking + against libbfd to provide the disassembler for JIT-ted programs + (**bpftool prog dump jited**) and usage of BPF skeletons (some + features like **bpftool prog profile** or showing pids associated to + BPF objects may rely on it). + +-j, --json + Generate JSON output.

This includes + logs from libbpf as well as from the verifier, when attempting to + load programs. + +-l, --legacy + Use legacy libbpf mode which has more relaxed BPF program + requirements. By default, bpftool has more strict requirements + about section names, changes pinning logic and doesn't support + some of the older non-BTF map declarations. + + See https://github.com/libbpf/libbpf/wiki/Libbpf:-the-road-to-v1.0 + for details. |
