Usage: xdpdump [options]
XDPDump tool to dump network traffic
Options:
--rx-capture <mode> Capture point for the rx direction (valid values: entry,exit)
-D, --list-interfaces Print the list of available interfaces
--load-xdp-mode <mode> Mode used for --load-xdp-mode, default native (valid values: native,skb,hw,unspecified)
--load-xdp-program Load XDP trace program if no XDP program is loaded
-i, --interface <ifname> Name of interface to capture on
--perf-wakeup <events> Wake up xdpdump every <events> packets
-p, --program-names <prog> Specific program to attach to
-P, --promiscuous-mode Open interface in promiscuous mode
-s, --snapshot-length <snaplen> Minimum bytes of packet to capture
--use-pcap Use legacy pcap format for XDP traces
-w, --write <file> Write raw packets to pcap file
-x, --hex Print the full packet in hex
-v, --verbose Enable verbose logging (-vv: more verbose)
--version Display version information
-h, --help Show this help

Examples (6) from the manual page, untested
xdp-filter load --mode skb eth0
The below will load the xdp-filter program on eth0, but it does not do any actual filtering:xdpdump -i eth0 -x
Now we can try xdpdump:xdpdump -i eth0 -w - | tcpdump -r - -n
Below are two more examples redirecting the capture file to tcpdump or tshark:xdpdump -i eth0 -w - | tshark -r - -nxdpdump -D
One final example capturing specific XDP programs loaded on the interface:xdpdump -i eth0 --rx-capture=entry,exit -p xdp_dispatcher,xdp_pass@10587
We would like to see the packets on the xdp_dispatcher() and the 2nd xdp_pass() program:
