As far as I understand right now (correct me if I'm wrong) 1. We are going to allocate a UID for each "user" (human user
/ account / log-in) and we are not going to allocate a UID for
each "application". (Dominig) Yes that is correct, we are are going to allocate
one UID per user. By user we understand: Note that the architecture allows to separate the concept of
user from the concept of seat (Display) and running the
display server with the same UID than the logged user is not
mandatory. 2. Whether to allow simultaneous multiple logins (with
different UID) or not is not yet determined or such capability
is "optional" at this point. (Dominig) That depend of the vertical. So far Mobile vertical
has not expressed the need to have multiple simultaneous user
even if that requirement could come later with Dual SIM mode.
On the other hand IVI has expressed the desire to run
simultaneous multiple profiles which is simple to implement
when allowing multiple simultaneous users. After merging local patches consolidating some daemons and
libraries (deviced and resourced although the name is yet
"system-server", "power-manager" and such and will be so until
the completion of the current merge efforts), such daemons are
going to be updated to support "multiuser support". And I'd
like to know the scope of the work beforehand. (some other
folks are also concerned as well.) (Dominig) The first step is to remove all hardwired path in the code as well as in the Spec and associated make files. Each maintainer should carry the work for is package and
Stephane's team will take care of the packages where the
maintainer is not progressing fast enough. I hope that is will clarify the current status. Regards Dominig
