+	help
+	  bpftrace is a high-level tracing language for Linux enhanced
+	  Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) available in recent Linux
+	  kernels (4.x).
+
+	  bpftrace uses LLVM as a backend to compile scripts to
+	  BPF-bytecode and makes use of BCC for interacting with the
+	  Linux BPF system, as well as existing Linux tracing
+	  capabilities: kernel dynamic tracing (kprobes), user-level
+	  dynamic tracing (uprobes), and tracepoints. The bpftrace
+	  language is inspired by awk and C, and predecessor tracers
+	  such as DTrace and SystemTap.
+
+	  It's highly recommended to NOT strip bpftrace binary.
+	  To do so, add "bpftrace" to BR2_STRIP_EXCLUDE_FILES.
+	  See:
+	    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1865787
+
+	  https://www.github.com/iovisor/bpftrace
