Release Notes

giampaolo/psutil (psutil)

v7.2.2

Compare Source

=====

2026-01-28

Enhancements

• 2705_: [Linux]: Process.wait()_ now uses pidfd_open() + poll() for
  waiting, resulting in no busy loop and faster response times. Requires
  Linux >= 5.3 and Python >= 3.9. Falls back to traditional polling if
  unavailable.
• 2705_: [macOS], [BSD]: Process.wait()_ now uses kqueue() for waiting,
  resulting in no busy loop and faster response times.

Bug fixes

• 2701_, [macOS]: fix compilation error on macOS < 10.7. (patch by Sergey
  Fedorov)
• 2707_, [macOS]: fix potential memory leaks in error paths of
  Process.memory_full_info() and Process.threads().
• 2708_, [macOS]: Process.cmdline()_ and Process.environ()_ may fail with ``OSError: [Errno 0] Undefined error`` (from ``sysctl(KERN_PROCARGS2)``). They now raise AccessDenied`_ instead.

v7.2.1

Compare Source

=====

2025-12-29

Bug fixes

• 2699_, [FreeBSD], [NetBSD]: heap_info()_ does not detect small allocations
  (<= 1K). In order to fix that, we now flush internal jemalloc cache before
  fetching the metrics.

v7.2.0

Compare Source

=====

2025-12-23

Enhancements

• 1275_: new heap_info()_ and heap_trim()_ functions, providing direct
  access to the platform's native C heap allocator (glibc, mimalloc,
  libmalloc). Useful to create tools to detect memory leaks.
• 2403_, [Linux]: publish wheels for Linux musl.
• 2680_: unit tests are no longer installed / part of the distribution. They
  now live under tests/ instead of psutil/tests.

Bug fixes

• 2684_, [FreeBSD], [critical]: compilation fails on FreeBSD 14 due to missing
  include.
• 2691_, [Windows]: fix memory leak in net_if_stats()_ due to missing
  Py_CLEAR.

Compatibility notes

• 2680_: import psutil.tests no longer works (but it was never documented to
  begin with).

v7.1.3

Compare Source

=====

2025-11-02

Enhancements

• 2667_: enforce clang-format on all C and header files. It is now the
  mandatory formatting style for all C sources.
• 2672_, [macOS], [BSD]: increase the chances to recognize zombie processes and
  raise the appropriate exception (ZombieProcess_).
• 2676_, 2678_: replace unsafe sprintf / snprintf / sprintf_s calls with
  str_format(). Replace strlcat / strlcpy with safe str_copy /
  str_append. This unifies string handling across platforms and reduces
  unsafe usage of standard string functions, improving robustness.

Bug fixes

• 2674_, [Windows]: disk_usage()_ could truncate values on 32-bit platforms,
  potentially reporting incorrect total/free/used space for drives larger than
  4GB.
• 2675_, [macOS]: Process.status()_ incorrectly returns "running" for 99%
  of the processes.
• 2677_, [Windows]: fix MAC address string construction in net_if_addrs()_.
  Previously, the MAC address buffer was incorrectly updated using a fixed
  increment and sprintf_s, which could overflow or misformat the
  string if the MAC length or formatting changed. Also, the final '\n' was
  inserted unnecessarily.
• 2679_, [OpenBSD], [NetBSD], [critical]: can't build due to C syntax error.

v7.1.2

Compare Source

=====

2025-10-25

Enhancements

• 2657_: stop publishing prebuilt Linux and Windows wheels for 32-bit Python.
  32-bit CPython is still supported, but psutil must now be built from source.
  2565_: produce wheels for free-thread cPython 3.13 and 3.14 (patch by
  Lysandros Nikolaou)

Bug fixes

• 2650_, [macOS]: Process.cmdline()_ and Process.environ()_ may incorrectly
  raise NoSuchProcess_ instead of ZombieProcess_.
• 2658_, [macOS]: double free() in Process.environ()_ when it fails
  internally. This posed a risk of segfault.
• 2662_, [macOS]: massive C code cleanup to guard against possible segfaults
  which were (not so) sporadically spotted on CI.

Compatibility notes

• 2657_: stop publishing prebuilt Linux and Windows wheels for 32-bit Python.

v7.1.1

Compare Source

=====

2025-10-19

Enhancements

• 2645_, [SunOS]: dropped support for SunOS 10.
• 2646_, [SunOS]: add CI test runner for SunOS.

Bug fixes

• 2641_, [SunOS]: cannot compile psutil from sources due to missing C include.
• 2357_, [SunOS]: Process.cmdline()_ does not handle spaces properly. (patch
  by Ben Raz)

Compatibility notes

• 2645_: SunOS 10 is no longer supported.

v7.1.0

Compare Source

=====

2025-09-17

Enhancements

• 2581_, [Windows]: publish ARM64 wheels. (patch by Matthieu Darbois)
• 2571_, [FreeBSD]: Dropped support for FreeBSD 8 and earlier. FreeBSD 8 was
  maintained from 2009 to 2013.
• 2575_: introduced dprint CLI tool to format .yml and .md files.

Bug fixes

• 2473_, [macOS]: Fix build issue on macOS 11 and lower.
• 2494_, [Windows]: All APIs dealing with paths, such as
  Process.memory_maps(), Process.exe() and Process.open_files()_ does
  not properly handle UNC paths. Paths such as \\??\\C:\\Windows\\Temp and
  '\\Device\\HarddiskVolume1\\Windows\\Temp' are now converted to
  C:\\Windows\\Temp. (patch by Ben Peddell)
• 2506_, [Windows]: Windows service APIs had issues with unicode services using
  special characters in their name.
• 2514_, [Linux]: Process.cwd()_ sometimes fail with FileNotFoundError due
  to a race condition.
• 2526_, [Linux]: Process.create_time(), which is used to univocally
  identify a process over time, is subject to system clock updates, and as such
  can lead to Process.is_running() returning a wrong result. A monotonic
  creation time is now used instead. (patch by Jonathan Kohler)
• 2528_, [Linux]: Process.children()_ may raise PermissionError. It will
  now raise AccessDenied_ instead.
• 2540_, [macOS]: boot_time()_ is off by 45 seconds (C precision issue).
• 2541_, 2570_, 2578_ [Linux], [macOS], [NetBSD]: Process.create_time()_ does
  not reflect system clock updates.
• 2542_: if system clock is updated Process.children()_ and
  Process.parent()_ may not be able to return the right information.
• 2545_: [Illumos]: Fix handling of MIB2_UDP_ENTRY in net_connections()_.
• 2552_, [Windows]: boot_time()_ didn't take into account the time spent
  during suspend / hibernation.
• 2560_, [Linux]: Process.memory_maps()_ may crash with IndexError on
  RISCV64 due to a malformed /proc/{PID}/smaps file. (patch by Julien
  Stephan)
• 2586_, [macOS], [CRITICAL]: fixed different places in C code which can
  trigger a segfault.
• 2604_, [Linux]: virtual_memory()_ "used" memory does not match recent
  versions of free CLI utility. (patch by Isaac K. Ko)
• 2605_, [Linux]: psutil.sensors_battery() reports a negative amount for
  seconds left.
• 2607_, [Windows]: WindowsService.description() method may fail with
  ERROR_NOT_FOUND. Now it returns an empty string instead.
• 2610:, [macOS], [CRITICAL]: fix cpu_freq()_ segfault on ARM architectures.

Compatibility notes

• 2571_: dropped support for FreeBSD 8 and earlier.

v7.0.0

Compare Source

=====

2025-02-13

Enhancements

• 669_, [Windows]: net_if_addrs()_ also returns the broadcast address
  instead of None.
• 2480_: Python 2.7 is no longer supported. Latest version supporting Python
  2.7 is psutil 6.1.X. Install it with: pip2 install psutil==6.1.*.
• 2490_: removed long deprecated Process.memory_info_ex() method. It was
  deprecated in psutil 4.0.0, released 8 years ago. Substitute is
  Process.memory_full_info().

Bug fixes

• 2496_, [Linux]: Avoid segfault (a cPython bug) on Process.memory_maps()
  for processes that use hundreds of GBs of memory.
• 2502_, [macOS]: virtual_memory()_ now relies on host_statistics64
  instead of host_statistics. This is the same approach used by vm_stat
  CLI tool, and should grant more accurate results.

Compatibility notes

• 2480_: Python 2.7 is no longer supported.
• 2490_: removed long deprecated Process.memory_info_ex() method.

v6.1.1

Compare Source

=====

2024-12-19

Enhancements

• 2471_: use Vulture CLI tool to detect dead code.

Bug fixes

• 2418_, [Linux]: fix race condition in case /proc/PID/stat does not exist, but
  /proc/PID does, resulting in FileNotFoundError.
• 2470_, [Linux]: users()_ may return "localhost" instead of the actual IP
  address of the user logged in.

v6.1.0

Compare Source

=====

2024-10-17

Enhancements

• 2366_, [Windows]: drastically speedup process_iter(). We now determine
  process unique identity by using process "fast" create time method. This
  will considerably speedup those apps which use process_iter() only once,
  e.g. to look for a process with a certain name.
• 2446_: use pytest instead of unittest.
• 2448_: add make install-sysdeps target to install the necessary system
  dependencies (python-dev, gcc, etc.) on all supported UNIX flavors.
• 2449_: add make install-pydeps-test and make install-pydeps-dev
  targets. They can be used to install dependencies meant for running tests and
  for local development. They can also be installed via pip install .[test]
  and pip install .[dev].
• 2456_: allow to run tests via python3 -m psutil.tests even if pytest
  module is not installed. This is useful for production environments that
  don't have pytest installed, but still want to be able to test psutil
  installation.

Bug fixes

• 2427_: psutil (segfault) on import in the free-threaded (no GIL) version of
  Python 3.13. (patch by Sam Gross)
• 2455_, [Linux]: IndexError may occur when reading /proc/pid/stat and
  field 40 (blkio_ticks) is missing.
• 2457_, [AIX]: significantly improve the speed of Process.open_files()_ for
  some edge cases.
• 2460_, [OpenBSD]: Process.num_fds()_ and Process.open_files()_ may fail
  with NoSuchProcess_ for PID 0. Instead, we now return "null" values (0 and
  [] respectively).

v6.0.0

======

2024-06-18

Enhancements

• 2109_: maxfile and maxpath fields were removed from the namedtuple
  returned by disk_partitions()_. Reason: on network filesystems (NFS) this
  can potentially take a very long time to complete.
• 2366_, [Windows]: log debug message when using slower process APIs.
• 2375_, [macOS]: provide arm64 wheels. (patch by Matthieu Darbois)
• 2396_: process_iter()_ no longer pre-emptively checks whether PIDs have
  been reused. This makes process_iter()_ around 20x times faster.
• 2396_: a new psutil.process_iter.cache_clear() API can be used the clear
  process_iter()_ internal cache.
• 2401_, Support building with free-threaded CPython 3.13. (patch by Sam Gross)
• 2407_: Process.connections()_ was renamed to Process.net_connections()_.
  The old name is still available, but it's deprecated (triggers a
  DeprecationWarning) and will be removed in the future.
• 2425_: [Linux]: provide aarch64 wheels. (patch by Matthieu Darbois / Ben Raz)

Bug fixes

• 2250_, [NetBSD]: Process.cmdline()_ sometimes fail with EBUSY. It usually
  happens for long cmdlines with lots of arguments. In this case retry getting
  the cmdline for up to 50 times, and return an empty list as last resort.
• 2254_, [Linux]: offline cpus raise NotImplementedError in cpu_freq() (patch
  by Shade Gladden)
• 2272_: Add pickle support to psutil Exceptions.
• 2359_, [Windows], [CRITICAL]: pid_exists()_ disagrees with Process_ on
  whether a pid exists when ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED.
• 2360_, [macOS]: can't compile on macOS < 10.13. (patch by Ryan Schmidt)
• 2362_, [macOS]: can't compile on macOS 10.11. (patch by Ryan Schmidt)
• 2365_, [macOS]: can't compile on macOS < 10.9. (patch by Ryan Schmidt)
• 2395_, [OpenBSD]: pid_exists()_ erroneously return True if the argument is
  a thread ID (TID) instead of a PID (process ID).
• 2412_, [macOS]: can't compile on macOS 10.4 PowerPC due to missing MNT_
  constants.

Porting notes

Version 6.0.0 introduces some changes which affect backward compatibility:

• 2109_: the namedtuple returned by disk_partitions()_' no longer has
  maxfile and maxpath fields.
• 2396_: process_iter()_ no longer pre-emptively checks whether PIDs have
  been reused. If you want to check for PID reusage you are supposed to use
  Process.is_running()_ against the yielded Process_ instances. That will
  also automatically remove reused PIDs from process_iter()_ internal cache.
• 2407_: Process.connections()_ was renamed to Process.net_connections()_.
  The old name is still available, but it's deprecated (triggers a
  DeprecationWarning) and will be removed in the future.
