== Desktop virtualization == |

Lorem Ipsum |

[[Desktop virtualization]] apps are the least resource and space intensive compared to other virtualization types, since the Operating System that is being displayed on the Android device is actually located on another computer on the [[local network]] or elsewhere like on the internet.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.computerworld.com/article/3074236/now-you-can-run-windows-10-on-an-ipad-pro-android.html|title=How to run Windows 10 on an iPad Pro or on Android|last=Evans|first=Jonny|date=2019-01-28|website=Computerworld|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> Depending upon how the desktop virtualization app works, they use [[Remote Desktop Protocol|RDP]] or can use another protocol of their own. Most business oriented desktop virtualization apps require specific types of equipment or services in order for the app to fully function. For example, [[VMware Horizon View|VMware Horizon Client]] requires specific VMware equipment for the app to work.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.vmware.com/products/horizon-apps.html|title=Published Apps {{!}} Horizon Apps|website=VMware|language=en-US|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> |

"Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit..." |
|||
"There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain..." |
|||
What is Lorem Ipsum? |
|||
A major downside that desktop virtualization apps have compared to other types of virtualization or emulation technologies is that they require a network connection to the server as stated previously above. |
|||
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. |
|||
Why do we use it? |
|||
== Platform virtualization == |
|||
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like). |
|||
[[Platform virtualization]] allows more leverage to the developer as anything that relates to the guest operating system only affects the guest operating system, and not the host operating system. Due to this it is possible for the guest operating system to be rooted, where as the host operating system remains unrooted.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.xda-developers.com/vmos-lets-you-run-a-virtual-android-environment-on-your-phone/|title=VMOS Lets You Run a Virtual Android Machine on your Phone|date=2019-08-08|website=xda-developers|language=en-US|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite web|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/zakdoffman/2019/10/17/huawei-mate-30-users-hit-by-more-google-mayhem/|title=Huawei Mate 30: New Google Play Option Is Here|last=Doffman|first=Zak|website=Forbes|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> Due to the nature of platform virtualization and the fact that it can virtualize a rooted guest OS, it has a greater advantage over emulators as it can run applications or utilize packages that require access to the underlying system itself. |
|||
As with all platform virtualization software and applications, they take up a lot of resources of the host in order to do the virtualization.<ref name=":0" /> |
|||
Where does it come from? |
|||
== Emulation == |
|||
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32. |
|||
The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham. |
|||
=== Types of emulations === |
|||
Where can I get some? |
|||
==== Emulation of other operating systems ==== |
|||
There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc. |
|||
Emulation of other operating systems on Android require the usage of some form of compatibility layer, where the compatibility layer must utilize some form of technologies or APIs to run the OS inside of the app container. This does come with limitations as some emulators utilize PRoot which is a chroot like environment.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web|url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=exa.lnx.a&hl=en_US|title=AnLinux : Run Linux On Android Without Root Access - Apps on Google Play|website=play.google.com|language=en|access-date=2019-11-21}}</ref><ref name=":2">{{Cite web|url=https://www.xda-developers.com/guide-installing-and-running-a-gnulinux-environment-on-any-android-device/|title=Guide: Installing and Running a GNU/Linux Environment on Any Android Device|first=Braden|last=Farmer|date=2017-01-28|website=xda-developers|access-date=2019-11-21}}</ref> Unlike terminal emulators that emulate the internal OS with/without any extension package support, it can install actual (for example) Ubuntu packages, as it does not rely too much on the Android system limitations. However, not all packages and applications can run. |

==== Terminal emulation of internal operating system ==== |
|||
paragraphs |
|||
Terminal emulation of the Android device itself is done via either an actual [[Local loopback address|local loopback]] to the device, or an emulation that seems to be a local loopback. Most of these terminal emulations of the device itself utilize the native terminal [[Toybox]] toolchain's library and functions that come with every android device.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/standalone_toolchain|title=Standalone Toolchains {{!}} Android NDK|website=Android Developers|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref><ref name=":3">{{Cite web|url=https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/toybox/+/refs/heads/master/README#80|title=README - platform/external/toybox - Git at Google|website=android.googlesource.com|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> However due to the fact that the majority of the functions that are readily available without utilizing a compatibility layer, means that Toybox functions can only be utilized.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/toybox/+/refs/tags/android-cts-7.1_r26/README|title=README - platform/external/toybox - Git at Google|website=android.googlesource.com|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> In order for a user to add any other functions or libraries would require the user to root their own device and add the functions or libraries manually. Some of these terminal emulators allow users to enter Toybox commands implicitly, where those that don't require the usage of "toybox COMMAND". |

There is a set of mock banners available here in three colours and in a range of standard banner sizes: |
|||
Some terminal emulators like [[Termux]] allow users to add packages. This is done via semi-emulating a different environment via the usage of PRoot and/or Toybox in the back-end.<ref name=":3" /> With the semi-emulating, some predefined ported packages can be used and installed without the need of rooting the device, as they do not utilize Android system files, and reside and run in the apps' own data containers and directories.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://opensource.com/article/18/5/termux|title=Termux turns Android into a Linux development environment|last=comments|first=15 May 2018 Paul Bailey Feed 178up 5|website=Opensource.com|language=en|access-date=2019-11-21}}</ref> Because Toybox is used mostly in the back-end, it depends on how the app was developed, for Toybox to be accessed from the semi-emulated enhanced terminal. |

Many emulators of other OSes allow the use of extensions. Aside from the use of standard [[SSH]], some emulators allow the use of technologies like [[VNC]] and [[XSDL]]. Via the use of these extensions, the user can have the emulated/virtualized OS running in a desktop-like environment.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/userland-turnkey-linux-your-pocket|title=UserLAnd, a Turnkey Linux in Your Pocket {{!}} Linux Journal|website=www.linuxjournal.com|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.techradar.com/how-to/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/how-to-install-linux-on-an-android-phone-1322579|title=How to install Linux on an Android phone|last=To|first=Mayank Sharma How|website=TechRadar|date=June 2016 |language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> |

The majority of limitations are seen in emulation-based apps rather than the platform virtualization based apps, as the emulation apps must utilize a compatibility layer. Thus for libraries and packages to work as expected like in a real OS, the compatibility layer must work properly and must be able to provide accurate information. However, this requires that the compatibility layer or any predefined software it uses (ex. Docker) to have access to many types of system- and device-related information. This can either be done via Toybox or programing language libraries that Android apps can be made from (e.g., [[Java (programming language)|Java]], [[C Sharp (programming language)|C#]]). However, starting with Android 8, many new security restrictions have been placed on apps; due to these restrictions, some API libraries/classes are no longer available or have been replaced by more restrictive API libraries/classes.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://source.android.com/setup/start/p-release-notes|title=Android 9 Release Notes|website=Android Open Source Project|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> |

|||
One of the known limitations that was implemented is that apps can only natively access only their own sandbox root directory or sub-directories on an SD card. Apps wanting to access files or folders outside that on the SD card, are required to use Android's own system file selector.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://source.android.com/setup/start/android-10-release|title=Android 10 Release Notes|website=Android Open Source Project|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> Due to this limitation, guest OSes running on, emulation, platform virtualization, or compatibility apps are no longer allowed to access files outside of their own SD card Sandbox. |

"But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure?" |
|||
Section 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum", written by Cicero in 45 BC |
|||
The majority of these limitations can be bypassed by rooting the Android device. However, utilizing Linux via utilizing an emulator or virtualization app would be redundant at that point as one could turn the device itself into a Linux environment.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2017/03/16/installing-linux-on-an-android-phone/|title=Installing Linux on an Android Phone|date=2017-03-16|website=Red Hat Developer|language=en-US|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> |

Et harum quidem rerum facilis est et expedita distinctio. Nam libero tempore, cum soluta nobis est eligendi optio cumque nihil impedit quo minus id quod maxime placeat facere possimus, omnis voluptas assumenda est, omnis dolor repellendus. Temporibus autem quibusdam et aut officiis debitis aut rerum necessitatibus saepe eveniet ut et voluptates repudiandae sint et molestiae non recusandae. Itaque earum rerum hic tenetur a sapiente delectus, ut aut reiciendis voluptatibus maiores alias consequatur aut perferendis doloribus asperiores repellat." |

=== OS internal security enhancements === |
|||
"On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to distinguish. In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing prevents our being able to do what we like best, every pleasure is to be welcomed and every pain avoided. But in certain circumstances and owing to the claims of duty or the obligations of business it will frequently occur that pleasures have to be repudiated and annoyances accepted. The wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection: he rejects pleasures to secure other greater pleasures, or else he endures pains to avoid worse pains." |
|||
More modern versions of Android have been seen having more internal system security enhancements, such that some system folders and files are no longer accessible or even viewable for that directory's existence. Versions of Android before 9 allowed terminal apps to view Android's root "/" directory (although not allowing modifications or execution). <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://source.android.com/devices/bootloader/system-as-root|title=Partition Layout|website=Android Open Source Project|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20|archive-date=2019-12-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191224042021/https://source.android.com/devices/bootloader/system-as-root|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://source.android.com/setup/start/p-release-notes|title=Android 9 Release Notes|website=Android Open Source Project|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> |

==== SELinux ==== |
|||
Android utilizes [[SELinux]]; due to this, all system configuration files are not editable and some are not even readable.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://source.android.com/security/selinux|title=Security-Enhanced Linux in Android|website=Android Open Source Project|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> Thus, apps can only utilize Android API's to learn about the device's or system's configuration or settings. However, not all information is available to apps; due to this, many OS compatibility layers or emulation apps are not able to run every package or application. |
|||
Here are some known applications and packages that are unable to run: |
|||
* [[Udisks|Udisks2]] requires udev which does not work well in most compatibility layer environments, as stated in the sub-sub-section below.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://github.com/CypherpunkArmory/UserLAnd/issues/992|title=Apt-Get Install failing - Udisks2 Permission Denied error leads to lots of DPKG error · Issue #992 · CypherpunkArmory/UserLAnd|website=GitHub|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.andropalac.com/install-parrot-on-android/|title=[Full Tutorial💻] Install Parrot OS On Android|date=2019-10-09|website=AndroPalac.com|language=en-US|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> |

|||
====ADB, PRoot, $HOME and $PREFIX usage==== |
|||
Because all Android apps run in a non-privileged container space, the virtualization or emulation apps must utilize their own app space to do the virtualization or emulation.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://source.android.com/setup/start/p-release-notes|title=Android 9 Release Notes|website=Android Open Source Project|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> This can be done either by ADB, PRroot, or the usage of $HOME and $PREFIX, however majority of these three are utilized by emulation apps as platform virtualization apps usually use different methods. Each of these is used for a different purpose. ADB is used for the emulation of a terminal-like environment for the entire Android system, but usually as an unprivileged user. $HOME and $PREFIX can be using $HOME as "~" and $PREFIX for ".". However, $HOME can not be set outside of the "/data/apps data space" directory on the Android file system, nor can $PREFIX be moved to another place like the SD Card.<ref name=":4">{{Cite web|url=https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Differences_from_Linux|title=Differences from Linux - Termux Wiki|website=wiki.termux.com|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> |
|||
For emulators or compatibility layers to emulate or virtualize a Linux-based OS on Android, [[PRoot]] must be used.<ref name=":1" /> However, when PRoot is used, the environment inside of Proot can act like a [[Chroot]] environment, and/or a separate mounted environment.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man1/proot.1.html|title=Ubuntu Manpage: PRoot - chroot, mount --bind, and binfmt_misc without privilege/setup|website=manpages.ubuntu.com|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://packages.debian.org/sid/proot|title=Debian -- Details of package proot in sid|website=packages.debian.org|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> In this scenario (especially in the case of compatibility layer and emulator for Guest OSes), there are packages and applications that can not run as they were never designed to run inside a chroot like environment.<ref name=":2" /> Some of these are well known, prominent packages, applications, or commands, including the following: |
|||
* [[Systemd]] |
|||
* [[Libudev]] (Works alongside Systemd).<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Udev|title=udev - ArchWiki|website=wiki.archlinux.org|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> |
|||
* [[Init]] |
|||
* [[Mutter (software)]] relies upon systemd |
|||
===== Alternatives ===== |
|||
Due to the issue of SeLinux and PRoot, alternatives must be used and not all of the unusable packages or applications have alternatives. Being an alternative, they don't necessarily have all the functions of the original packages or applications. Some of these alternatives include: |
|||
* [[Eudev]] |
|||
* [[Elogind]] |
|||
* [[Metacity]] (Predecessor of Mutter) |
|||
===Android itself using a modified Linux kernel=== |
|||
Because Android has got a modified Linux kernel, not all configuration or system files exist or are the same in Android.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://source.android.com/security/overview/kernel-security|title=System and kernel security|website=Android Open Source Project|language=en|access-date=2019-11-21}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/25463/does-android-really-use-the-same-kernel-as-linux|title=Does Android really use the same kernel as Linux?|website=Unix & Linux Stack Exchange|access-date=2019-11-21}}</ref> Because of this, emulation apps either need to provide either their own version of the configuration or system files in the application's data space, use a pre-modified distribution of ported Linux libraries that do not require the usage of the missing configuration or system files, or not support the usage of those packages. Some well known configuration and system files that are not in Android include: |

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.

Section 1.10.32 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum", written by Cicero in 45 BC "Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae ab illo inventore veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt explicabo. Nemo enim ipsam voluptatem quia voluptas sit aspernatur aut odit aut fugit, sed quia consequuntur magni dolores eos qui ratione voluptatem sequi nesciunt.

1914 translation by H. Rackham "But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure?"
Section 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum", written by Cicero in 45 BC "At vero eos et accusamus et iusto odio dignissimos ducimus qui blanditiis praesentium voluptatum deleniti atque corrupti quos dolores et quas molestias excepturi sint occaecati cupiditate non provident, similique sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollitia animi, id est laborum et dolorum fuga. Et harum quidem rerum facilis est et expedita distinctio. Nam libero tempore, cum soluta nobis est eligendi optio cumque nihil impedit quo minus id quod maxime placeat facere possimus, omnis voluptas assumenda est, omnis dolor repellendus. Temporibus autem quibusdam et aut officiis debitis aut rerum necessitatibus saepe eveniet ut et voluptates repudiandae sint et molestiae non recusandae. Itaque earum rerum hic tenetur a sapiente delectus, ut aut reiciendis voluptatibus maiores alias consequatur aut perferendis doloribus asperiores repellat."
1914 translation by H. Rackham "On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to distinguish. In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing prevents our being able to do what we like best, every pleasure is to be welcomed and every pain avoided. But in certain circumstances and owing to the claims of duty or the obligations of business it will frequently occur that pleasures have to be repudiated and annoyances accepted. The wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection: he rejects pleasures to secure other greater pleasures, or else he endures pains to avoid worse pains."
