It is always mandatory for Android smartphone manufacturers to release the kernel source code under the GPLv2 license. Some manufacturers tend to release the Kernel Source code on the day of a smartphone launch. However, few of them usually release it after a few months. Surprisingly, Xiaomi has unveiled the Android 10 based Kernel source code for both the Redmi Note 9 Pro and Redmi Note 8 Pro smartphones.
