The Android Binder driver supports a netlink API that reports transaction *failures* to a userspace daemon. This allows devices to monitor processes with many failed transactions so that it can e.g. kill misbehaving apps. One very important thing that this monitors is when many oneway messages are sent to a frozen process, so there is special handling to ensure this scenario is surfaced over netlink.

Binderfs is a pseudo-filesystem for the Android Binder IPC driver
|
|
which can be mounted per-ipc namespace allowing to run multiple
|
|
instances of Android.
|
|
Each binderfs mount initially only contains a binder-control device.
|
|
It can be used to dynamically allocate new binder IPC devices via
|
|
ioctls.

Default value for the binder.devices parameter.

The binder.devices parameter is a comma-separated list of strings
|
|
that specifies the names of the binder device nodes that will be
|
|
created. Each binder device has its own context manager, and is
|
|
therefore logically separated from the other devices.

This feature builds the binder alloc KUnit tests.

Each test case runs using a pared-down binder_alloc struct and
|
|
test-specific freelist, which allows this KUnit module to be loaded
|
|
for testing without interfering with a running system.
