Advanced mode indicates if the processor microcode seems to be up-to-date or not.
See below:

# needrestart -m a

Running kernel seems to be up-to-date.

The processor microcode seems to be up-to-date.

No services need to be restarted.

No containers need to be restarted.

No user sessions are running outdated binaries.
