LinuxKI 8.0 is now available (12-Feb-2026). This version of LinuxKI supports Linux Kernel versions through 6.17. Version 8.0 also introduces new KVM guest VM reporting when data is collected on the KVM host. A complete list of enhancements and fixes is as follows:

  • Added support for Linux Kernel versions through 6.17
  • KVM Guest VM enhancements
    • kiinfo -kikvm command to create the KVM Guest Activity Report file (kikvm..txt).
    • kiall script now produces new KVM Guest Activity Report (kikvm.<timestamp.txt) to report activity for each KVM Guest VM
    • KVM Guest VM name listed outside of process/task name (i.e., /VM name/>)
    • Added new KVM Guest section to Kparse report if KVM Guests VMs are present
  • Fixed hash algorithm for FOBJ_HASH which caused kiall to take a long time for Windows traces
  • Added parallel zip option (-Z) for runki/kiall/kiclean scripts.
  • Update runki to handle recent changes to /sys/kernel/debug and /sys/kernel/tracing directories
  • Update runki to use cat to clear the trace pipe
  • Fixed hash size in print_vm_iototals call
  • remove in_flight counters async/sync for IO which is no longer maintained by Linux kernels
  • Detect Speculative Return Stack Overflow (SRSO) mitigation on AMD processors and add Kparse warning
  • Detect SMIs and add Kparse warning
