    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Fri Jan 23 06:40:08 2026


    The

    Linux Kernel Runtime Guard (LKRG) is a out-of-tree loadable kernel module that attempts to detect and report violations of the kernel's internal invariants, such as might be caused by an in-progress security exploit or a rootkit.
    LKRG has been experimental since its

    initial release in 2018. In September
    2025, the project
    announced
    the 1.0 version. With the promises of stability that version brings, users might want more
    information to decide whether to include it in their kernel.
