The development of this kernel modification was primarily driven by Google's ongoing attempts to block rooted devices via Play Integrity API checks - an action that we, as developers and researchers, strongly oppose. Root access is essential for thorough security research, and its restriction undermines transparency and the right to repair. This custom kernel was carefully crafted to bypass these limitations, integrating KernelSU and SuSFS into an older 5.4 LineageOS kernel.
