VNDK Definition Tool
====================
VNDK definition tool was designed to classify all shared libraries in the
system partition and give suggestions to copy necessary libraries to the vendor
partition.
## Usage
To run VNDK definition tool, you will need three inputs:
1. The system and vendor image for your target
2. Android Treble reference image
3. Eligible VNDK list from Google (e.g. eligible-list-v3.0.csv)
The high-level overview of the command line usage is:
$ python3 ./vndk_definition_tool.py vndk \
--system "/path/to/your/product_out/system" \
--vendor "/path/to/your/product_out/vendor" \
--aosp-system "/path/to/aosp/generic/system" \
--tag-file "eligible-list-v3.0.csv"
This command will print several lines such as:
vndk-sp: libexample1.so
vndk-sp-ext: libexample2.so
extra-vendor-libs: libexample3.so
The output implies:
1. `libexample1.so` should be copied to `/system/lib[64]/vndk-sp`.
2. `libexample2.so` should be copied to `/vendor/lib[64]/vndk-sp`.
3. `libexample3.so` should be copied to `/vendor/lib[64]`.
# Makefile Boilerplates
There are some boilerplates in `templates` directory that can automate the
process to copy shared libraries. Please copy a boilerplate, rename it as
`Android.mk`, and replace the placeholders with corresponding values:
* `##_VNDK_SP_##` should be replaced by library names tagged with `vndk_sp`.
* `##_VNDK_SP_EXT_##` should be replaced by library names tagged with
`vndk_sp_ext`.
* `##_EXTRA_VENDOR_LIBS_##` should be replaced by library names tagged with
`extra_vendor_libs`.
* `$(YOUR_DEVICE_NAME)` has to be replaced by your own device product name.
VNDK definition tool can fill in the library names and generate an `Android.mk`
when the `--output-format=make` is specified:
$ python3 ./vndk_definition_tool.py vndk \
--system "/path/to/your/product_out/system" \
--vendor "/path/to/your/product_out/vendor" \
--aosp-system "/path/to/aosp/generic/system" \
--tag-file "eligible-list-v3.0.csv" \
--output-format=make
These boilerplates only define the modules to copy shared libraries.
Developers have to add the phony package name to `PRODUCT_PACKAGES` variable in
the `device.mk` for their devices.
PRODUCT_PACKAGES += $(YOUR_DEVICE_NAME)-vndk
## Ignore Subdirectories
Some devices keep their vendor modules in `/system/vendor`. To run VNDK
definition tool for those devices, we have to skip `/system/vendor` and specify
it with `--vendor` option. For example:
python3 vndk_definition_tool.py vndk \
--system ${ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT}/system \
--system-dir-ignored vendor \
--vendor ${ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT}/system/vendor \
# ...
## Implicit Dependencies
If there are implicit dependencies, such as `dlopen()`, we can specify them in
a dependency file and load the dependency file with `--load-extra-deps`. The
dependency file format is simple: (a) each line stands for a dependency, and
(b) the file before the colon depends on the file after the colon. For
example, `libart.so` depends on `libart-compiler.so`:
/system/lib64/libart.so: /system/lib64/libart-compiler.so
And then, run VNDK definition tool with:
$ python3 vndk_definition_tool.py vndk \
--system ${ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT}/system \
--vendor ${ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT}/vendor \
--aosp-system ${ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT}/../generic_arm64_a \
--tag-file eligible-list-v3.0.csv \
--load-extra-deps dlopen.dep
## Remarks
To run VNDK definition tool against an image (`.img`), run the following
command to mount the images and run `vndk_definition_tool.py` with `sudo`:
$ simg2img system.img system.raw.img
$ simg2img vendor.img vendor.raw.img
$ mkdir system
$ mkdir vendor
$ sudo mount -o loop,ro system.raw.img system
$ sudo mount -o loop,ro vendor.raw.img vendor
$ sudo python3 vndk_definition_tool.py vndk \
--system system \
--vendor vendor \
--aosp-system /path/to/aosp/generic/system \
--tag-file eligible-list-v3.0.csv
