BTF COMMANDS
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
| **bpftool** **btf dump** *BTF_SRC*
|
||||
| **bpftool** **btf help**
|
||||
|
|
||||
| *BTF_SRC* := { **id** *BTF_ID* | **prog** *PROG* | **map** *MAP* [{**key** | **value** | **kv** | **all**}] | **file** *FILE* }
|

| *MAP* := { **id** *MAP_ID* | **pinned** *FILE* }
|
||||
| *PROG* := { **id** *PROG_ID* | **pinned** *FILE* | **tag** *PROG_TAG* }
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
===========
|
||||
**bpftool btf dump** *BTF_SRC*
|
||||
Dump BTF entries from a given *BTF_SRC*.
|
||||
|
||||
When **id** is specified, BTF object with that ID will be
|
||||
loaded and all its BTF types emitted.
|
||||
|
||||
When **map** is provided, it's expected that map has
|
||||
associated BTF object with BTF types describing key and
|
||||
value. It's possible to select whether to dump only BTF
|
||||
type(s) associated with key (**key**), value (**value**),
|
||||
both key and value (**kv**), or all BTF types present in
|
||||
associated BTF object (**all**). If not specified, **kv**
|
||||
is assumed.
|
||||
|
||||
When **prog** is provided, it's expected that program has
|
||||
associated BTF object with BTF types.
|
||||
|
||||
When specifying *FILE*, an ELF file is expected, containing
|
||||
.BTF section with well-defined BTF binary format data,
|
||||
typically produced by clang or pahole.
|
||||
|
||||
**bpftool btf help**
|
||||
Print short help message.
|
||||
|
||||
OPTIONS
|
||||
=======
|
||||
-h, --help
|
||||
Print short generic help message (similar to **bpftool help**).
|
||||
|
||||
-V, --version
|
||||
Print version number (similar to **bpftool version**).
|
||||
|
||||
-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**.
|
||||
|
||||
EXAMPLES
|
||||
========
|
||||
**# bpftool btf dump id 1226**
|
||||

||||

|

|

This gives an example of default output for all supported BTF kinds.

The following commands print BTF types associated with specified map's key,
|
||||
value, both key and value, and all BTF types, respectively. By default, both
|
||||
key and value types will be printed.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
