libgrabkernel2

This is a simple library to download the kernelcache for the host iOS/macOS device. It is similar to the original libgrabkernel by tihmstar, but it uses the AppleDB API to find the kernelcache URL, which lets it work for beta versions of iOS/macOS as well.

libgrabkernel2 also contains a compatibility shim for the original libgrabkernel's grabkernel() function. This means that you can swap a libgrabkernel dylib for a libgrabkernel2 one in a pre-compiled project without issues.

Building

Run make in the root directory.

Add TARGET=macos for macOS (the default is iOS)
Add DEBUG=1 for a debug build.

The build products and headers will be in the output directory.

Huge credit to dhinakg for reimplementing the API parsing in Objective-C (as it was originally in Swift).
