11 config ANDROID_BINDER_IPC
12 bool "Android Binder IPC Driver"
16 Binder is used in Android for both communication between processes,
17 and remote method invocation.
19 This means one Android process can call a method/routine in another
20 Android process, using Binder to identify, invoke and pass arguments
21 between said processes.
23 config ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES
24 string "Android Binder devices"
25 depends on ANDROID_BINDER_IPC
26 default "binder,hwbinder,vndbinder"
28 Default value for the binder.devices parameter.
30 The binder.devices parameter is a comma-separated list of strings
31 that specifies the names of the binder device nodes that will be
32 created. Each binder device has its own context manager, and is
33 therefore logically separated from the other devices.
35 config ANDROID_BINDER_IPC_32BIT
36 bool "Use old (Android 4.4 and earlier) 32-bit binder API"
37 depends on !64BIT && ANDROID_BINDER_IPC
40 The Binder API has been changed to support both 32 and 64bit
41 applications in a mixed environment.
43 Enable this to support an old 32-bit Android user-space (v4.4 and
46 Note that enabling this will break newer Android user-space.
48 config ANDROID_BINDER_IPC_SELFTEST
49 bool "Android Binder IPC Driver Selftest"
50 depends on ANDROID_BINDER_IPC
52 This feature allows binder selftest to run.
54 Binder selftest checks the allocation and free of binder buffers
55 exhaustively with combinations of various buffer sizes and
