This repository contains the kernel modules necessary to run the Anbox
Android container runtime. They're split out of the original Anbox
repository to make packaging in various Linux distributions easier.
# Install Instruction
You need to have `dkms` and linux-headers on your system. You can install them by
`sudo apt install dkms` or `sudo yum install dkms` (`dkms` is available in epel repo
for CentOS).
Package name for linux-headers varies on different distributions, e.g.
`linux-headers-generic` (Ubuntu), `linux-headers-amd64` (Debian),
`kernel-devel` (CentOS, Fedora), `kernel-default-devel` (openSUSE).
* First install the configuration files:
```
$ sudo cp anbox.conf /etc/modules-load.d/
$ sudo cp 99-anbox.rules /lib/udev/rules.d/
```
* Then copy the module sources to `/usr/src/`:
```
$ sudo cp -rT ashmem /usr/src/anbox-ashmem-1
$ sudo cp -rT binder /usr/src/anbox-binder-1
```
* Finally use `dkms` to build and install:
```
$ sudo dkms install anbox-ashmem/1
$ sudo dkms install anbox-binder/1
```
You can verify by loading these modules and checking the created devices:
```
$ sudo modprobe ashmem_linux
$ sudo modprobe ashmem_binder
$ ls -alh /dev/binder /dev/ashmem
```
You are expected to see output like:
```
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 10, 55 Jun 19 16:30 /dev/ashmem
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 511, 0 Jun 19 16:30 /dev/binder
```
