BPF programs are normally handled by a BPF interpreter. This option
allows the kernel to generate native code when a program is loaded
into the kernel. This will significantly speed-up processing of BPF
programs.
Note, an admin should enable this feature changing:
/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_harden (optional)
/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_kallsyms (optional)

bool "Permanently enable BPF JIT and remove BPF interpreter"
depends on BPF_SYSCALL && HAVE_EBPF_JIT && BPF_JIT
help
Enables BPF JIT and removes BPF interpreter to avoid speculative
execution of BPF instructions by the interpreter.
When CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is enabled, /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
is permanently set to 1 and setting any other value than that will
return failure.

depends on BPF_SYSCALL
help
Disables unprivileged BPF by default by setting the corresponding
/proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled knob to 2. An admin can
still reenable it by setting it to 0 later on, or permanently
disable it by setting it to 1 (from which no other transition to
0 is possible anymore).
Unprivileged BPF could be used to exploit certain potential
speculative execution side-channel vulnerabilities on unmitigated
affected hardware.
If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer Y.
