(related to bpf itself not modprobe subject) Hi Chris, I just want to point out that the tool 'bpftool', is currently the dominating tool for eBPF introspection. And the 'bps' tool you mention seems to have gained less (open source) traction. The bpftool is part of the kernel git-tree: tools/bpf/bpftool https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/tools/bpf/bpftool/ And it even have bash-completion and man-pages in RST format so they even render nicely when viewed via github: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/tools/bpf/bpftool/Documentation/bpftool.rst https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/tools/bpf/bpftool/Documentation/bpftool-prog.rst https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/tools/bpf/bpftool/Documentation/bpftool-map.rst -- Best regards, Jesper Dangaard Brouer MSc.CS, Principal Kernel Engineer at Red Hat LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brouer
