[$] Linux Kernel Runtime Guard reaches its 1.0 release

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.
