KernelCare supports a large number of distributions and kernel versions. List of all supported distributions, kernels, as well as patches for them is available at patches.kernelcare.com.
However, to be absolutely sure your kernel is supported, we have a simple script that you can run on your server:
https://github.com/cloudlinuxadmin/kernelchecker/blob/master/py/kc-compat.py
It can be executed by running either of these shortened versions:
curl -s -L https://kernelcare.com/checker | python
Or
wget -qq -O - https://kernelcare.com/checker | python
The response will be one of:
COMPATIBLE
UNSUPPORTED
UNSUPPORTED; INSIDE CONTAINER
[UPDATE 04/01/2022: Updated github link and added ‘-L’ flag to curl command to follow the redirect from our main web site to the actual code.]
