And the new name is so long I originally missed this. Sorry.

The long name also suggests (at least to me) that this is really
multiple proposals. It seems to suggest three different policy
changes. One for logging and processing kernel addresses, impacting
programs needing to inspect e.g. /proc/kallsyms. One for BPF using
packages, impacting performance and power consumption. And one for
tracing/profiling/debugging user space programs, impacting whether
installing such a package works out of the box or not.

It would be good to turn this into three separate proposals with input
from some of the affected package maintainers to come up with a good
way to set these values to make sure when you install a package it
works out of the box. I don't think just asking FESCO to pick a
default value, force the systemd package maintainers to set that
and then hope users will read some documentation to enable their
installed packages to work again is a great policy.

Cheers,

Mark
