Absolutely.
When I first heard about KVM on Android, I thought Android was going to run every app in its own micro-VM managed by crosvm... But that'd be too resource intensive for mobile devices, I think?
What they are instead doing with this project led by Will Deacon is more towards isolating non-Android workloads that OEMs run (like Radios): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10905643 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10905643, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24109856 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24109856, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14859602 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14859602?
- pjmlp 6y agoThe whole Java vs Android Java vs Kotlin puts me off, and how hard it is to be productive with the NDK (vs other platforms). However, I really like all the security efforts they put into it (which is also a reason why the NDK is so constrained). Thanks for the links.
