KernelSU is a root solution for Android devices that operates at the kernel level. "Root" on Android means gaining unrestricted administrative access to your device — similar to being an administrator on a computer — which allows you to modify system files, run privileged apps, and customize things that are normally locked down. KernelSU achieves this by working directly inside the Android kernel (the core layer of the operating system that manages hardware and processes), rather than using methods that patch the app layer. The README does not provide further detail about its features, architecture, supported platforms, or use cases, so a complete explanation is not possible from the provided data alone.
