+When Berkeley Packet Filter Just in Time compiler is enabled, then compiled
+images are unknown addresses to the kernel, meaning they neither show up in
+traces nor in /proc/kallsyms. This enables export of these addresses, which
+can be used for debugging/tracing. If bpf_jit_harden is enabled, this feature

+dev_weight_rx_bias
+--------------
+
+RPS (e.g. RFS, aRFS) processing is competing with the registered NAPI poll function
+of the driver for the per softirq cycle netdev_budget. This parameter influences
+the proportion of the configured netdev_budget that is spent on RPS based packet
+processing during RX softirq cycles. It is further meant for making current
+dev_weight adaptable for asymmetric CPU needs on RX/TX side of the network stack.
+(see dev_weight_tx_bias) It is effective on a per CPU basis. Determination is based
+on dev_weight and is calculated multiplicative (dev_weight * dev_weight_rx_bias).
