16kb page size support

[xavierserrai]

Dears,

Google is progressively enforcing apps to support devices with 16kb page size:

https://developer.android.com/guide/practices/page-sizes

Following the instructions in the above link I have seen that there are some libraries that are used by Talsec that are not compliant with 16kb page size:

/lib/arm64-v8a/libsecurity.so: \e[31mUNALIGNED\e[0m (212)
/lib/arm64-v8a/libpolarssl.so: \e[31mUNALIGNED\e[0m (212)
/lib/arm64-v8a/libclib.so: \e[31mUNALIGNED\e[0m (212)
/lib/arm64-v8a/libpbkdf2_native.so: \e[31mUNALIGNED\e[0m (212)

The test I passed is described in this section:

https://developer.android.com/guide/practices/page-sizes

Is there any plan to make your libraries support 16kb page size?

Thanks,

Dears,

Is 16kb issue fixed on version 7.0.0? I cannot see it in changelog.

Thanks,

Hi @xavierserrai ,
Not yet. Did you register any 16kb enabled devices already? Transition to 16kb-only devices may take a little bit longer as enforcing this too soon would break almost every mobile app today.
Thank you,
Tomas

Hi @SirionRazzer ,
I have not seen any physical 16kb device but as soon as they appear and 16kb is enabled any piece of code that is not ready for that will blow up the app when executed. We have almost completed our transition to 16kb support.

Thanks,
