DESCRIPTION
===========
*bpftool* allows for inspection and simple modification of BPF objects
on the system.
Note that format of the output of all tools is not guaranteed to be
stable and should not be depended upon.
OPTIONS
=======
-h, --help
Print short 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**.
-m, --mapcompat
Allow loading maps with unknown map definitions.
