Android System Programming

Android emulator kernel and hardware

We use goldfish lights as an example to perform the calling sequence analysis from an application to the goldfish HAL. Now we can look at the kernel layer and the underlying hardware. We can also take an overview from the top to the bottom again to understand how the entire system works.

The goldfish architecture

We use the preceding figure to explain goldfish kernel and hardware in detail. As you can see, the preceding figure is similar to the architecture diagram that we saw in Chapter 1, Introduction to Android System Programming. This architecture diagram is the general architecture diagram for Android, ...
