Kernel-based
As the name suggests, KernelSU runs inside the Linux kernel, giving it more control over userspace apps.

Root access control
Only permitted apps can access or see su; all other apps remain unaware of it.
Customizable root privileges
KernelSU allows customization of su's uid, gid, groups, capabilities, and SELinux rules, hardening root privileges.
Metamodule system
Pluggable module infrastructure allows systemless /system modifications. Install a metamodule like meta-overlayfs to enable module mounting.
