What is the function of a cylinder liner in an engine?

In a cast-iron or aluminum block, that material is not hard enough to withstand the wear of piston/piston ring movement. It is a violent explosion that occurs when the spark plugs ignites the fuel/air and the piston moves millions (billions?) of times during the life span of an engine. So the cylinder walls are lined with hardened steel, sometimes stainless steel to tolerate it.
