Thanks Paolo, I see. But anyways when I run the SCF with xdm and after that I
run pp.x to print the kinetic energy, the .cube file is empty (attached).

Not "and": you need a meta_GGA .OR. an XDM calculation. In both cases,
the kinetic energy density is computed and used in the self-consistent
calculation
