KernelSU is a Kernel based root solution for Android devices. It features kernel-based su and root access management as well as a Module system based on overlayfs (similar to Magisk). KernelSU works whitelist-based: Only App that is granted root permission can access su, other apps cannot perceive su.
KernelSU officially supports Android GKI 2.0 devices(with kernel 5.10+), old kernels(4.14+) is also compatiable, but you need to build kernel yourself. WSA and containter-based Android should also work with KernelSU integrated.
Current supported ABIs are: arm64-v8a and x86_64.
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
