| Default (and possibly architecture dependents) HAL modules go here. | |
| libhardware.so eventually should contain *just* the HAL hub | |
| (hardware.c), everything in it should be rewritten as modules. | |
| Modules are .so in /vendor/lib/hw/ and have a well defined naming | |
| convention: | |
| /vendor/lib/hw/<*_HARDWARE_MODULE_ID>.<ro.product.board>.so | |
| /vendor/lib/hw/<*_HARDWARE_MODULE_ID>.<ro.board.platform>.so | |
| /vendor/lib/hw/<*_HARDWARE_MODULE_ID>.<ro.arch>.so | |
| /vendor/lib/hw/<*_HARDWARE_MODULE_ID>.default.so | |
| They also have a well defined interface which lives in include/hardware/. | |
| A module can have several variants: "default", "arch" and "board", and they're | |
| loaded in the "board", "arch" and "default" order. | |
| The source code for the "board" variant, usually lives under partners/... | |
| The source code for "default" and "arch" would usually | |
| live under hardware/modules/. | |
