How do you estimate a share? What's the share of libc in Google business? What's the share of openssl? What's the share of ncurses?
- progx 5y agolibc used in Android. openssl -> view boringSSL - BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs Nobody says that one company has to support every project and google supports many open source projects.
- ivanbakel 5y agoBut how would you estimate the contribution that libc has to Android? Is libc entitled to 10% of Android's revenue? 20%? 100%, since it is a vital component? This is what the GP was asking.
- progx 5y agoOnly google can answer that. But i think we can not say one lib make x%, it are all the libs and tools that are necessary. We don't now what e.g. google search uses under the hood, but all are needed so google can make only $1.
