| # Goldfishd: Android Emulator Daemon |
| |
| ## About |
| |
| Goldfishd (Android Emulator Daemon) is a daemon for getting messages sent from |
| the host when running Chrome OS inside the Android Emulator. Because the code |
| name of virtual hardware provided by Android Emulator is goldfish, we call it |
| Goldfishd. It's only available on test images for testing/development purposes. |
| |
| ## Work flow |
| |
| This daemon opens /dev/goldfish_pipe to read messages from it. Messages from the |
| host trigger different actions inside Chrome OS. See goldfishd::message in |
| goldfish_library.h for all supported messages. |
