Releases: tiann/KernelSU
v1.0.0
KernelSU has been born for two years. Today we officially welcome version 1.0!
Due to the fact that we haven't added features to non-GKI devices for a long time, and maintaining them requires a significant amount of time, we have removed support for non-GKI devices. Non-GKI devices can only stay on version 0.9.5 (the manager can update). In the future, we will focus on adding new features for GKI devices.
Our energy is limited, but the rewards are even more limited, so please understand our choice, thank you!
v0.9.5
- [Kernel] Fix random reboot caused by potential deadlock
- [Kernel] Support private space for Android 15
- [Manager] Fix file residue after complete uninstallation
- [Manager] Support saving logs locally
v0.9.4
- [Manager]: Fix selecting KMI not working.
- [Kernel]: hook stable symbols to improbe compatibility.
- [Module]: Update resetprop.
- [Manager]: Some UI improvements.
- [Kernel]: Fix some detection issues.
v0.9.3
- [Kernel]: Let the kernel choose who is qualified to be the manager, avoiding potential side-channel attacks.
- [Manager]: Support uninstall permanently and restore stock boot in Settings. You can restore stock boot before OTA to avoid download the full firmware.
- [Module]: Fix the issue of the App Profile template page not opening.
- [Manager]: Fix scroll issues in Settings.
- [Manager]: Support choose kmi manually for installation.
- [Manager]: Fix dark mode not working in Splash Screen.
- [WebUI]: Allow opening multiple modules simultaneously on WebUI.
- [Manager]: Add module shrink in Settings.
- [Manager]: Fix "grant root failed" in some cases.
- [Manager]: Allow to use other su to install LKM mode.
v0.9.2
- [manager]: Support offline patching of the kernel.
- [kernel]: Fix issue with ColorOS.
- [kernel]: Hide traces of LKM in user space.
- [manager]: Fix possible errors during OTA upgrades.
v0.9.0
KernelSU now supports installation through kernel modules (LKM) (GKI Only), you can use it with official kernels or third-party kernels; at the same time, the manager has also added installation functionality, you can choose to patch files, install directly, or install after OTA. Regarding the new LKM installation method, there are some tips:
- LKM does not support non-GKI kernels, and will not support them in the future;
- When patching files, if the
init_bootpartition exists, you should choose to patchinit_boot; otherwise, patchboot; - If you have already installed the GKI kernel provided by KernelSU and want to switch to the LKM method, you need to flash back to the stock kernel; if your device has an
init_bootpartition, you can directly flash back to the stockboot; - The installation method of GKI kernel and LKM will always exist, use whichever you like; in the future, it will also support flashing GKI kernel in the manager.
Have fun!
v0.8.1
0.8.1
- Fix various issues caused by sparse files. Installing one module (no more) and rebooting immediately will fix the slowness issue
0.8.0
For a long time, the module functionality of Magisk / KernelSU was limited to executing boot scripts and modifying system files. Now, we are exploring the possibility of endowing modules with the capability to display UI interfaces!
Previously, after installing some modules, users needed to configure them either through the command line or by directly modifying configuration files in specific locations. Clearly, this process was quite inconvenient for users. At times, in order to configure settings, it was even necessary to write a separate app. With the ability for modules to display interfaces, these issues could become a thing of the past.
Moreover, the display interface can be used for more than just configurations. You have the freedom to present anything you'd like to showcase and interact with the user.
The current interface is implemented through WebUI. You can create HTML pages using any web technology and place them in the module's webroot directory. After the module is installed, users can access this page through the KernelSU manager's list of modules. KernelSU also provides a JavaScript library to facilitate interaction with the system.
However, these trials are still in their infancy, and the jsapi is not yet stable. We welcome your feedback!
Changelog:
- [Module] Add support for displaying WebUI in modules.
- [Module] Use sparse image to store module files to solve the problem of installation failure of certain large modules and dynamically sized modules.
- [Module] Use new mount API when it is available for mounting module files.
- [Module] Allow to set upperdir for OverlayFS to make the partition writable (CLI Only).
- [Kernel] Fix some detections.
- [Kernel] Fix a bug that causes some root processes cannot be killed.
- [Manager] Add an option to disable automatic update check.
- [Manager] Fix the misleading tips when manager grant root failed.
