+================
+bpftool-link
+================
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+tool for inspection and simple manipulation of eBPF links
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+:Manual section: 8
+
+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+ **bpftool** [*OPTIONS*] **link** *COMMAND*
+
+ *OPTIONS* := { { **-j** | **--json** } [{ **-p** | **--pretty** }] | { **-f** | **--bpffs** } }
+
+ *COMMANDS* := { **show** | **list** | **pin** | **help** }
+
+LINK COMMANDS
+=============
+
+| **bpftool** **link { show | list }** [*LINK*]
+| **bpftool** **link pin** *LINK* *FILE*
+| **bpftool** **link help**
+|
+| *LINK* := { **id** *LINK_ID* | **pinned** *FILE* }
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+ **bpftool link { show | list }** [*LINK*]
+ Show information about active links. If *LINK* is
+ specified show information only about given link,
+ otherwise list all links currently active on the system.
+
+ Output will start with link ID followed by link type and
+ zero or more named attributes, some of which depend on type
+ of link.
+
+ **bpftool link pin** *LINK* *FILE*
+ Pin link *LINK* as *FILE*.
+
+ Note: *FILE* must be located in *bpffs* mount. It must not
+ contain a dot character ('.'), which is reserved for future
+ extensions of *bpffs*.
+
+ **bpftool link 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**.
+
+ -f, --bpffs
+ When showing BPF links, show file names of pinned
+ links.
+
+ -n, --nomount
+ Do not automatically attempt to mount any virtual file system
+ (such as tracefs or BPF virtual file system) when necessary.
+
+ -d, --debug
+ Print all logs available, even debug-level information. This
+ includes logs from libbpf.
+
+EXAMPLES
+========
+**# bpftool link show**
+
+::
+
+ 10: cgroup prog 25
+ cgroup_id 614 attach_type egress
+
+**# bpftool --json --pretty link show**
+
+::
+
+ [{
+ "type": "cgroup",
+ "prog_id": 25,
+ "cgroup_id": 614,
+ "attach_type": "egress"
+ }
+ ]
+
+|
+| **# bpftool link pin id 10 /sys/fs/bpf/link**
+| **# ls -l /sys/fs/bpf/**
