Isistimu yokusebenza yeselula ye-Android isekelwe ku-Linux kernel, kodwa ayiyona i-kernel evamile, kodwa eguqulelwe kakhulu. Kuhlanganisa "ukuthuthukiswa" okuvela ku-Google, abaklami bama-chip i-Qualcomm ne-MediaTek, nama-OEM. Kodwa manje, kubikwa ukuthi "inkampani enhle" uhlelo lwakho kunguqulo eyinhloko ye-kernel.
Onjiniyela bakwaGoogle babambe izingxoxo ngalesi sihloko engqungqutheleni yalo nyaka yamaPlumbers eLinux. Lokhu kulindeleke ukuthi kwehlise izindleko nokusekelwa okuphezulu, kuzuzise iphrojekthi ye-Linux iyonke, kuthuthukise ukusebenza futhi kwandise impilo yebhethri yedivayisi. Lokhu kuzovumela futhi ukuthunyelwa okusheshayo kwezibuyekezo futhi kunciphise ukuhlukana.
Isinyathelo sokuqala kule nqubo ukuhlanganisa izinguquko eziningi ze-Android ngangokunokwenzeka ku-Linux kernel eyinhloko. Kusukela ngo-February 2018, i-kernel ye-Android evamile (lapho abakhiqizi benza khona izinguquko ezengeziwe) inezengezo ezingaphezu kuka-32 kanye nokususwa okungaphezu kuka-000 uma kuqhathaniswa nokukhishwa kwe-Linux 1500 okuyinhloko. Lokhu ukuthuthuka eminyakeni embalwa edlule, lapho i-Android yengeza imigqa yekhodi engaphezu kuka-4.14.0 ku-Linux.
I-Android kernel isathola ukuguqulwa kubakhi bama-chip (njenge-Qualcomm ne-MediaTek) nama-OEM (njenge-Samsung ne-LG). I-Google ithuthukise le nqubo ngo-2017 nge-Project Treble, ehlukanise abashayeli bedivayisi ethile kusukela kuyo yonke i-Android. Inkampani ifuna ukushumeka lobu buchwepheshe ku-Linux kernel eyinhloko, okungenzeka isuse isidingo sezinhlamvu zedivayisi ngayinye futhi iqhubekisele phambili ukusheshisa inqubo yokuvuselela i-Android.
Umbono ohlongozwe onjiniyela be-Google owokwakha isixhumi esibonakalayo ku-Linux kernel esingavumela abashayeli bemishini yokuphathelene ukuthi basebenze njengama-plug-in. Lokhu kuzovumela i-Project Treble ukuthi isetshenziswe ku-Linux kernel evamile.
Kuyathakazelisa ukuthi amanye amalungu omphakathi we-Linux aphikisana nombono wokuthumela i-Android kuwo. Isizathu inqubo eshesha kakhulu yokuguqulwa kanye nezinguquko ku-kernel evamile, kuyilapho amasistimu obunikazi "edonsa" nawo wonke umthwalo wokuhambisana nezinguqulo ezindala.
Ngakho-ke, akukacaci ukuthi ukushintshwa kwe-Android kuya ku-Linux kernel evamile kanye nokuhlanganiswa kwesistimu ye-Project Treble kuyo kwenzeka nini futhi kufinyelele ekukhululweni. Kodwa umqondo ngokwawo uthakazelisa kakhulu futhi uyathembisa.
