49DESCRIPTION
50===========
51	**bpftool prog { show | list }** [*PROG*]
52		  Show information about loaded programs.  If *PROG* is
53		  specified show information only about given program, otherwise
54		  list all programs currently loaded on the system.
55
56		  Output will start with program ID followed by program type and
57		  zero or more named attributes (depending on kernel version).
58
59	**bpftool prog dump xlated** *PROG* [{ **file** *FILE* | **opcodes** | **visual** }]
60		  Dump eBPF instructions of the program from the kernel. By
61		  default, eBPF will be disassembled and printed to standard
62		  output in human-readable format. In this case, **opcodes**
63		  controls if raw opcodes should be printed as well.
64
65		  If **file** is specified, the binary image will instead be
66		  written to *FILE*.
67
68		  If **visual** is specified, control flow graph (CFG) will be
69		  built instead, and eBPF instructions will be presented with
70		  CFG in DOT format, on standard output.
71
72	**bpftool prog dump jited**  *PROG* [{ **file** *FILE* | **opcodes** }]
73		  Dump jited image (host machine code) of the program.
74		  If *FILE* is specified image will be written to a file,
75		  otherwise it will be disassembled and printed to stdout.
76
77		  **opcodes** controls if raw opcodes will be printed.
78
79	**bpftool prog pin** *PROG* *FILE*
80		  Pin program *PROG* as *FILE*.
81
82		  Note: *FILE* must be located in *bpffs* mount. It must not
83		  contain a dot character ('.'), which is reserved for future
84		  extensions of *bpffs*.
85
86	**bpftool prog { load | loadall }** *OBJ* *PATH* [**type** *TYPE*] [**map** {**idx** *IDX* | **name** *NAME*} *MAP*] [**dev** *NAME*] [**pinmaps** *MAP_DIR*]
87		  Load bpf program(s) from binary *OBJ* and pin as *PATH*.
88		  **bpftool prog load** pins only the first program from the
89		  *OBJ* as *PATH*. **bpftool prog loadall** pins all programs
90		  from the *OBJ* under *PATH* directory.
91		  **type** is optional, if not specified program type will be
92		  inferred from section names.
93		  By default bpftool will create new maps as declared in the ELF
94		  object being loaded.  **map** parameter allows for the reuse
95		  of existing maps.  It can be specified multiple times, each
96		  time for a different map.  *IDX* refers to index of the map
97		  to be replaced in the ELF file counting from 0, while *NAME*
98		  allows to replace a map by name.  *MAP* specifies the map to
99		  use, referring to it by **id** or through a **pinned** file.
100		  If **dev** *NAME* is specified program will be loaded onto
101		  given networking device (offload).
102		  Optional **pinmaps** argument can be provided to pin all
103		  maps under *MAP_DIR* directory.
104
105		  Note: *PATH* must be located in *bpffs* mount. It must not
106		  contain a dot character ('.'), which is reserved for future
107		  extensions of *bpffs*.
108
109	**bpftool prog attach** *PROG* *ATTACH_TYPE* [*MAP*]
110		  Attach bpf program *PROG* (with type specified by
111		  *ATTACH_TYPE*). Most *ATTACH_TYPEs* require a *MAP*
112		  parameter, with the exception of *flow_dissector* which is
113		  attached to current networking name space.
114
115	**bpftool prog detach** *PROG* *ATTACH_TYPE* [*MAP*]
116		  Detach bpf program *PROG* (with type specified by
117		  *ATTACH_TYPE*). Most *ATTACH_TYPEs* require a *MAP*
118		  parameter, with the exception of *flow_dissector* which is
119		  detached from the current networking name space.
120
121	**bpftool prog tracelog**
122		  Dump the trace pipe of the system to the console (stdout).
123		  Hit <Ctrl+C> to stop printing. BPF programs can write to this
124		  trace pipe at runtime with the **bpf_trace_printk()** helper.
125		  This should be used only for debugging purposes. For
126		  streaming data from BPF programs to user space, one can use
127		  perf events (see also **bpftool-map**\ (8)).
128
129	**bpftool prog help**
130		  Print short help message.
131
132OPTIONS
133=======
134	-h, --help
135		  Print short generic help message (similar to **bpftool help**).
136
137	-v, --version
138		  Print version number (similar to **bpftool version**).
139
140	-j, --json
141		  Generate JSON output. For commands that cannot produce JSON, this
142		  option has no effect.
143
144	-p, --pretty
145		  Generate human-readable JSON output. Implies **-j**.
146
147	-f, --bpffs
148		  When showing BPF programs, show file names of pinned
149		  programs.
