vendor area implementation example from Google:

bootctrl.default.so (link libboot_control.a)貌似没人用

使用legacy_boot_control.cpp, 把libboot_control.a的实现的类android::bootable::BootControl包装进去

使用BootControl.cpp

android::hardware::boot::V1_1::implementation::BootControl

直接使用"android::bootable::BootControl"的实现

libboot_control.a
