The language is call ‘edify’ (this is used in conjuction with the updater sub-project)

edify - Contains code that parse update scripts.applypatch - Applies binary patches to files.This can be used as a boilerplate to create your own custom recoveries like the ClockworkMod. The code inside shows the different things that needs to be implemented. This directory contains code for creating recovery program. Looking at the source code it seems to be code written to write image files into partition, not sure for what kind of devices. There is no README file or any such file inside this directory that give some information about the content. There is a good detail explanation about the code in the README file The directory contains a file called fastboot_protocol.txt which outlines the Fastboot protocol implemented by vendor. The sample code is to show on how to implement a bootloader for a particular SoC. This directory contains a sample bootloader for a fictional SoC. The tool is called Android Dynamic Linker what is does is it assign fix addresses to the library to reduce the size of the library and also increases the loading speed. This directory contains utility that is used during linking process. Several architecture are supported inside this directory. The file that contains the main functionality is dlfcn.c under the /bionic/linker/ directoryĬontains Math library. The main function of the program is to open a library and read the symbol. This directory what looks like a ‘stub’ program that are being used during linking process. In order to understand in detail on how to add functions or port it to different architecture you want to read the file OVERVIEW.TXT under the docs/ folder This directory contains the different architecture that is supported to use bionic, namely - ARM (under the arch-arm/) and x86 (under the arch-x86/ directory).


multi-byte characters) - its own smallish implementation of pthreads based on Linux futexes - support for x86, ARM and ARM thumb CPU instruction sets and kernel interfaces The content of this directory is not clear what it is about as it contains several C++ files.īionic is mainly a port of the BSD C library to our Linux kernel with the following additions/changes: - no support for locales - no support for wide chars (i.e.
