Should we cover how to utilize dynamic systems (DSU) to extract boot image as an alternative method for LKM installation?

Describe your problem.

There are devices that are GKI-compatible but the OEM doesn't officially provide stock ROMs anymore (i.e. 2024 OnePlus).

To use KernelSU on those devices, the user would have to grab stock ROMs from 3rd-party websites. However, it's not a long-term solution to rely on 3rd-party services to provide stock ROMs.

There's another option that doesn't rely on such websites. Namely, after unlocking the BL, sideload a userdebug GSI image to DSU and reboot the device to DSU. There, adb shell would be running as root, and it'd be greenlight to dump any partition out to the PC.
