1# Demo for serving a service in a VM
2
3You can implement a service in a VM, and let client in the Android can use it
4as if it's in the Android. To do so, use libbinder's IAccessor.
5
6IAccessor allows AIDL service in a VM to be accessed via servicemanager.
7To do so, VM owners should also provide IAccessor through libbinder's service
8manager APIs. servicemanager will connect to the IAccessor and get the binder
9of the service in a VM with it.
10
11com.android.virt.accessor_demo apex contains the minimum setup for IAccessor as
12follows:
13  - accessor_demo: Sample implementation using IAccessor, which is expected to
14      launch VM and returns the Vsock connection of service in the VM.
15  - AccessorVmApp: Sample app that conatins VM payload. Provides the actual
16      implementation of service in a VM.
