Sure but I don’t see any compelling use cases to motivate opening it up. Do you have an example of one?

Even if the kernel opens it up without a compelling use case, it seems likely that distribution policy will keep it default locked to root.

Which is my point here. I don’t see a compelling reason to have a JIT in the kernel when AOT BPF seems to cover 90% of all existing use cases. In fact I may even write a bpf to kernel module compiler myself.
