DESCRIPTION
===========
**bpftool feature probe** [**kernel**] [**macros** [**prefix** *PREFIX*]]
**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

Keyword **kernel** can be omitted. If no probe target is
specified, probing the kernel is the default behaviour.
Note that when probed, some eBPF helpers (e.g.
**bpf_trace_printk**\ () or **bpf_probe_write_user**\ ()) may
print warnings to kernel logs.
**bpftool feature probe dev** *NAME* [**macros** [**prefix** *PREFIX*]]
**bpftool feature probe dev** *NAME* [**full**] [**macros** [**prefix** *PREFIX*]]
Probe network device for supported eBPF features and dump
results to the console.
The two keywords **macros** and **prefix** have the same
role as when probing the kernel.
The keywords **full**, **macros** and **prefix** have the
same role as when probing the kernel.
**bpftool feature help**
Print short help message.
