Upstream contributions

-

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.
