I will divide this write up. For magisk, read only last 3 reply.
We have a SAR (System as root) device with A only partition. Starting with pie, the location of ramdisk has changed from boot image to recovery image. So standard magisk which patched boot image was useless for us. I tried to patch recovery image but there was a catch. We needed to boot from recovery mode to get root. And that was impossible for tv boxes. For phones its doable with key presses. Not for us. SO my search continued.
