- DESCRIPTION
- ===========
- **bpftool feature probe** [**kernel**] [**full**] [**macros** [**prefix** *PREFIX*]]
- Probe the running kernel and dump a number of eBPF-related
- parameters, such as availability of the **bpf**\ () system call,
- JIT status, eBPF program types availability, eBPF helper
- functions availability, and more.
- By default, bpftool **does not run probes** for
- **bpf_probe_write_user**\ () and **bpf_trace_printk**\()
- helpers which print warnings to kernel logs. To enable them
- and run all probes, the **full** keyword should be used.
- If the **macros** keyword (but not the **-j** option) is
- passed, a subset of the output is dumped as a list of
- **#define** macros that are ready to be included in a C
- header file, for example. If, additionally, **prefix** is
- used to define a *PREFIX*, the provided string will be used
- as a prefix to the names of the macros: this can be used to
- avoid conflicts on macro names when including the output of
- this command as a header file.
- Keyword **kernel** can be omitted. 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. This
- keyword is unavailable if bpftool was compiled without
- libcap.
- **bpftool feature probe dev** *NAME* [**full**] [**macros** [**prefix** *PREFIX*]]
- Probe network device for supported eBPF features and dump
- results to the console.
- The keywords **full**, **macros** and **prefix** have the
- same role as when probing the kernel.
- **bpftool feature list_builtins** *GROUP*
- List items known to bpftool. These can be BPF program types
- (**prog_types**), BPF map types (**map_types**), attach types
- (**attach_types**), link types (**link_types**), or BPF helper
- functions (**helpers**). The command does not probe the system, but
- simply lists the elements that bpftool knows from compilation time,
- as provided from libbpf (for all object types) or from the BPF UAPI
- header (list of helpers). This can be used in scripts to iterate over
- BPF types or helpers.
- **bpftool feature help**
- Print short help message.
