16 Binder is used in Android for both communication between processes,
17 and remote method invocation.
18
19 This means one Android process can call a method/routine in another
20 Android process, using Binder to identify, invoke and pass arguments
21 between said processes.

28 Binderfs is a pseudo-filesystem for the Android Binder IPC driver
29 which can be mounted per-ipc namespace allowing to run multiple
30 instances of Android.
31 Each binderfs mount initially only contains a binder-control device.
32 It can be used to dynamically allocate new binder IPC devices via
33 ioctls.

42 The binder.devices parameter is a comma-separated list of strings
43 that specifies the names of the binder device nodes that will be
44 created. Each binder device has its own context manager, and is
45 therefore logically separated from the other devices.
