<h2><a href="#upstream">Upstream contributions</a></h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>GrapheneOS has made substantial contributions to the privacy and security of the
|
||||
Android Open Source Project, along with contributions to the Linux kernel, LLVM,
|
||||
OpenBSD and other projects. Much of our past work is no longer part of the downstream
|
||||
GrapheneOS project because we've successfully landed many patches upstream. We've had
|
||||
even more success with making suggestions and participating in design discussions to
|
||||
steer things in the direction we want. Many upstream changes in AOSP such as removing
|
||||
app access to low-level process, network, timing and profiling information originated
|
||||
in the GrapheneOS project. The needs of the upstream projects are often different from
|
||||
ours, so they'll often reimplement the features in a more flexible way. We've almost
|
||||
always been able to move to using the upstream features and even when we still need
|
||||
our own implementation it helps to have the concepts/restrictions considered by the
|
||||
upstream project and apps needing to be compatible with it. Getting features upstream
|
||||
often leads to an improved user experience and app compatibility.</p>
|
||||
<p>See <a href="/faq#upstream">the FAQ section on our upstream work</a> improving
|
||||
privacy and security for billions of users by getting a subset of our changes into
|
||||
core infrastructure projects.</p>
