Vanilla Kernel - Magiskless experience

Project to add VanillaSU (a KernelSU fork with SUSFS) and useful patches to LineageOS without losing vanilla for OnePlus 9 Pro

Features

• Base: Linux 5.4.302, LineageOS source for OnePlus 9 Pro (sm8350 / lahaina)
• Root: VanillaSU - a KernelSU-Next fork, vendored as the KernelSU submodule
• SUSFS: mount/kstat/uname spoofing and related hiding features enabled
• Packaging: flashable AnyKernel3 zip, SmartPack-Kernel Manager update channel

Warning

Installing kernels older than 2.1.1 causes bootloop in the system and recovery due to upstream updates

Dependencies

sudo apt-get install -y \
    build-essential bc bison flex git \
    libssl-dev libelf-dev libncurses-dev \
    python3 python-is-python3 \
    zip unzip lz4 zstd pahole \
    device-tree-compiler ccache

Toolchain

Clang r416183b (the same toolchain the CI uses - see .github/workflows/build.yml):

mkdir -p ~/clang
wget "https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/clang/host/linux-x86/+archive/b669748458572622ed716407611633c5415da25c/clang-r416183b.tar.gz" \
    -O clang.tar.gz
tar -xf clang.tar.gz -C ~/clang
export PATH="$HOME/clang/bin:$PATH"

Building

Make sure the KernelSU submodule is checked out first:

git submodule update --init --recursive

The build.sh script in the tools/ directory accepts the following commands:

# Generate configuration (requires base defconfig, e.g. vendor/lahaina-qgki_defconfig):
tools/build.sh config vendor/lahaina-qgki_defconfig

# Or generate with a config fragment (merge):
tools/build.sh config vendor/lahaina-qgki_defconfig arch/arm64/configs/vanillaKernel-defconfig

# Build kernel:
tools/build.sh kernel

The CI builds the kernel on every push to lineage-23.2 (stable) and lineage-23.2-test (unstable), and uploads the flashable AnyKernel3 zip as a workflow artifact.

Installation

Flash the resulting VanillaKernel-*.zip from a custom recovery, or via the SmartPack-Kernel Manager update channel (see smartpack/update.json).
