KernelSU provides systemless modification of the system through overlayfs, but this feature has become a major and fragile detection point, with many detection methods for KernelSU stemming from it. Therefore, we plan to launch the metamodule feature, which will transfer certain capabilities of the module system to the metamodule. This will maintain the stability and security of KernelSU itself while releasing greater innovative potential for the module system.
For example, after transferring the mount capability to the metamodule, there can be various mounting methods:
1. No mount; for users who only use mountless modules, there is no need to bear the side effects brought by mounting.
2. Using overlayfs for mounting; with rw support, direct writing to partitions like /system can be enabled.
3. Magic mount; utilizing the mounting methods provided by Magisk for better compatibility.
4. There can also be several other implementations, such as fuse-overlay mount, custom vfs mount, etc.
The metamodule can also take over the module installation process, providing unique capabilities for modules, such as supporting kernel modules, etc.
Welcome to the era of metamodule!
