+
+-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. For commands that cannot produce JSON, this
+	  option has no effect.
+
+-p, --pretty
+	  Generate human-readable JSON output. Implies **-j**.
+
+-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.
+
+-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.
