Module

You can build the module at example/ with an iOS cross-compiler on Linux or a Mac. Refer to scripts/ to see how to load modules.

Kernel patchfinder

Note that the checkra1n patchfinder is not currently open-source. However, the KPF JIT that will ship on checkra1n 0.10.0 onwards is part of this repository. That means that pongoOS builds from this repository will always boot to the shell by default instead of XNU.
