📝 Walkthrough
WalkthroughThe PR adds the Quick Build runtime Android library. It defines Binder contracts, receives and persists generation-based payloads, swaps code and resources, reloads activities, reports failures, and adds extensive JVM tests. ChangesQuick Build runtime
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk:🟠 High · up to This change enables live code, resource, and asset replacement, but unresolved issues can expose the keep-alive service to other apps, leave users with partially applied assets or failed resource swaps reported as successful, retry component construction incorrectly, or suppress fatal runtime errors.

Restrict access to QuickBuildKeepAliveService.
onBind() returns its binder to every caller, and the manifest declares no permission. Any installed app can bind to the service and keep the proxy process out of the cached-app freezer. Authorize only CoGo with a permission or caller check.

Not taking it. The exposure is real but bounded at keeping a developer's own proxy app unfrozen, and the returned object is a bare Binder with no transactions. Both remedies are unavailable: Binder.getCallingUid() inside onBind() returns this app's own uid, and a signature permission cannot work because CoGo is release-signed while the proxy app uses the on-device debug keystore. onUnbind returns false, so handing a caller null would poison the cached binding and break the keep-alive outright.

Make cumulative asset extraction transactional.
If a later ZIP entry fails, earlier entries have already replaced files in current. The method then throws, but the active cumulative directory remains partially mutated because the baseline marker still matches. Stage the merged result in a separate directory and replace current only after every entry succeeds. Add a test with a valid entry followed by a failing entry.

Fixed, with a different remedy. A staging dir means a full asset copy on every deploy in the hot path, so instead a merge.pending marker is written before the merge and cleared after; a marker still present at the start of the next run forces the override directory to be rebuilt. cd119ba

Android AppComponentFactory instantiateActivity ClassLoader loadClass implementation and Java ClassLoader parent delegation getClassLoader semantics
💡 Result:
The Android AppComponentFactory and Java ClassLoader mechanisms work together to manage class loading and component instantiation through a standard delegation pattern. AppComponentFactory Implementation The AppComponentFactory is a system-level hook introduced to allow applications to intercept the instantiation of core components (Activity, Application, Service, Provider, Receiver) [1][2]. The instantiateActivity(ClassLoader, String, Intent) method has a default implementation that simply delegates the instantiation to the provided ClassLoader: public Activity instantiateActivity(ClassLoader cl, String className, Intent intent) throws InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException, ClassNotFoundException { return (Activity) cl.loadClass(className).newInstance; } By overriding this method in a custom AppComponentFactory, developers can inject custom logic—such as dependency injection or using a different ClassLoader—before the platform instantiates the component [1][2]. The associated instantiateClassLoader(ClassLoader, ApplicationInfo) method allows developers to replace or modify the ClassLoader hierarchy used by the entire application [3][4]. Java ClassLoader Parent Delegation The ClassLoader.loadClass(String name) method in Java follows a strict parent-delegation model [5][6][7]: 1. Check if the class has already been loaded by the current ClassLoader (via findLoadedClass) [5]. 2. Delegate the search to the parent ClassLoader [5][6]. 3. If the parent cannot find the class, the current ClassLoader invokes its own findClass(String name) method to locate and define the class [5]. This architecture ensures that core platform classes (like those loaded by the bootstrap or system class loaders) take precedence, maintaining security and class identity consistency within the JVM [6]. In Android, the ClassLoader passed to AppComponentFactory methods is typically a PathClassLoader, which is configured by the system to load the application's base or split APKs [3][2]. When loadClass is called, it propagates this request up to the system/bootstrap loaders according to the delegation rules [5][6]. Developers who require non-delegating (child-first) behavior must override loadClass in a custom ClassLoader subclass, as standard Android ClassLoaders adhere to the platform's delegation semantics by default [6][8].

Return the default loader for parent-resolved classes.
PayloadStore creates the payload loader with the APK loader as its parent. When payloadLoader.loadClass(className) resolves an APK class, resolved.getClassLoader() is the default loader. Current code still selects payloadLoader, so a constructor failure can cause the factory to invoke the same constructor again through the default loader. Select the loader from the resolved class and update LoaderRouterTest with a parent-resolved throwing component regression case.

Not taking it. PayloadStore builds the payload loader parent-first, so for an APK-resident class both loaders return the identical Class object, and pick's result only ever feeds super.instantiate*. The double construction comes from the factory's unconditional retry, not from the router, and the change would contradict the invariant LoaderRouterTest.payloadWinsWhenBothLoadersServeTheClass pins.

Reject raw control characters in JSON strings.
readString accepts unescaped control characters, including raw newlines. This violates the parser contract that malformed JSON throws IllegalArgumentException. Reject characters from U+0000 through U+001F unless they arrive through a valid escape sequence.

Fixed. A rethrowIfFatal call is now the first statement of all five catch blocks, so a VirtualMachineError is no longer logged and then answered with another class load. LinkageError is still caught deliberately: a stale-payload NoSuchFieldError is exactly what the fallback exists for. cd119ba

Unbind before scheduling a rebind on the null-proxy path.
The three other failure paths (onBindingDied, onNullBinding, and the RuntimeException catch) call unbindQuietly() before scheduleRebind(). This branch does not. The scheduled runnable sees host == null and calls bindNow(), which issues a second bindService against the same ServiceConnection while the first binding is still registered. That stacks bindings, which is the exact case the comment at Line 181-182 warns about, and leaves a binding that the single unbindQuietly() cannot release.
🔧 Proposed fix
IQuickBuildHost connected = IQuickBuildHost.Stub.asInterface(service);
if (connected == null) {
RuntimeLog.w("null host proxy from onServiceConnected");

Not taking it. A null connected requires a null binder, which the framework never delivers here: doConnected routes that to onNullBinding on API 26+, and this factory only runs on API 28+. unbindService also drops the whole ServiceDispatcher, so stacked bindings are released rather than leaked.

extractCumulative updates the cumulative directory before the provider swap. A prior DirectoryAssetsProvider can still serve that same directory during extraction. An activity can then read a truncated or mixed asset file and fail while parsing it.
Extract into an immutable staged directory. Swap to that directory only after extraction succeeds. Keep the old directory until its provider is detached.

Keep provider state and deploy status consistent when installation fails.
The fields are updated before installProviders() succeeds. swapProvidersOnMain then catches the failure and only logs it. A later swap can read the rejected provider from provider or assetsProvider and install it unexpectedly. The deploy path also reports success instead of the resource failure.

Give the banner text somewhere to scroll at 2x font scale.
setMaxLines(6) caps the banner, and no ancestor scrolls. OverlayState.text() renders a compile-error detail line, and QuickBuildRuntime allows a crash summary of up to 2000 characters. At 2x font scale six lines hold about half the characters, so the fault location is cut with no way to reach it.
The coding guidelines reserve maxLines for text that is genuinely disposable. This banner is the error surface, so its text is not disposable.

Review at effort high. Read every main-source hunk in the new :quickbuild:runtime module (30 files); 10 findings inline, each verified against the source at 65ea465.
Two worth resolving before merge:
PayloadPersistence.markGoodlacks the quarantine guard its counterpartquarantine()has, so a crash racing the mark-good thread ends with the whole persisted store deleted on the next boot -- the regressiongood.jsonwas added to prevent.QuickBuildClient'sRemoteExceptionbranch rebinds without unbinding, so the framework silently drops the reconnect and the client is stuck with a nullhost.
The rest are one correctness gap each in the resource-swap and ack paths, plus three nits.
Checked and clean: zip-traversal guards in AssetExtractor.extract/extractCumulative; MiniJson's depth cap and literal-shape checks (no path reaches charAt out of bounds); Generations/BootProbation/PersistedSelection gate arithmetic; RestartHandoff's two-phase wait and deadline math; rethrowPayloadFailure's addSuppressed self-reference guard; collectOrphans' referenced-set construction; and the AIDL -- no duplication against :quickbuild:protocol, and the append-only/oneway versioning contract holds.
The KDoc density throughout made the invariants easy to check against, and in two places (markLiveGenerationGood, swapProvidersOnMain) the docs are what surfaced the finding.
| * the generation now on screen; ignored unless the store currently publishes it, since a caller confirming a superseded generation has nothing here to record | ||
| * @return true when {@link #GOOD_FILE} names {@code generation} after this call, which is also the moment {@link #quarantine} starts refusing to name it; false when the store no longer publishes it or the write failed, and the caller must go on treating it as unproven | ||

Blocking.markGood never checks the quarantine marker, so a race with the crash guard wipes the whole store.
quarantine() (line 344) refuses to name a generation already in good.json, but there is no guard in the other order. Sequence:
- Process boots gen 5 from the store, so
bootProbation.unprovenGeneration == 5. - An activity resumes;
markLiveGenerationGoodspawnsqb-mark-good. - Before that thread's
writeAtomiclands, gen 5 throws uncaught. The crash guard computesgenerationToBlame(-1, 5) == 5and writesquarantine.json= 5. - The thread then writes
good.json= 5.
Next boot: load() sees the published gen 5 quarantined, calls loadLastGood, hits generation == quarantinedGeneration() (line 496) and calls clear(). The entire store is deleted and the app drops to install-time code -- the exact A56 failure good.json was added to prevent, and the comment at line 344 describes.
Suggest mirroring that guard here: return false when generationIn(new File(dir, QUARANTINE_FILE)) == generation.

Blocking. This branch re-binds without unbinding first, and the framework will not re-publish the connection.
onNullBinding, onBindingDied, and the RuntimeException branch two lines below all call unbindQuietly() before scheduleRebind(). This one does not, so the queued runnable calls bindNow() and issues a second bindService with the same ServiceConnection instance while the old binding is still live. LoadedApk.ServiceDispatcher.doConnected short-circuits when the connection already holds that IBinder, so onServiceConnected is never re-delivered. bindNow() returned true, so nothing further is queued and rebindScheduled is cleared.
Result: host stays null with no recovery path, plus a leaked binding ref-count (the later unbindService releases only one). Adding unbindQuietly() here matches the other three paths.

On API 30+ the ResourcesLoader only ever reaches activity Resources, never the application's.
attachTo is called from ActivityTracker (lines 55 and 113) with activity.getResources() only. The Application/appContext Resources has its own ResourcesImpl, so after a resource-only deploy getApplicationContext().getResources().getString(id) -- anything read from a Service, a ContentProvider, a notification builder, or Application.onConfigurationChanged -- keeps resolving the baseline table while the activity resolves the new one. Two different values for the same id in one process.
Worth noting the API 28/29 path is not inconsistent this way: applyTableLegacy (line 188) mounts onto appContext.getResources() explicitly, and the legacy arm of attachTo then covers each new activity on top of that. The loader path is missing the app-level half.

The provider swap is posted and its failure only logged, but the deploy is still acked as if it landed.
swapProvidersOnMain's KDoc argues the failure should be logged rather than thrown because "the previous provider set stays live either way" -- fair for this method in isolation. The gap is one level up: applyTableWithLoader returns without error, so handlePayload proceeds to client.reportReloaded(...). CoGo shows a successful reload while the app still renders the previous table and the user sees no banner, which is worse than a reported failure.
The freshly created next provider also leaks its ApkAssets in that case -- nothing closes it. Same shape in refreshAssetsProvider (line 288).

persist can publish an older generation over a newer one already on disk.
onPayload is oneway, so two payloads can land on two binder threads. If gen 7's persist completes first, gen 6's readInheritableMeta(6, fp) finds the stored gen 7, logs the warning at line 608 and returns null -- but persist then writes meta.json claiming gen 6 anyway (line 321), carrying only the kinds gen 6 brought and discarding the dex/arsc/assets names the store had accumulated.
PayloadStore.apply(6, ...) correctly rejects it in memory, so the disk store now sits behind the running process and a cold boot adopts gen 6 with baseline resources. Since readInheritableMeta already distinguishes "unreadable" from "not older", persist could refuse (or no-op) on the not-older case rather than falling through to a fresh write.

The latch is set before the async write, so a failed markGood is never retried -- and the KDoc's justification for that is inverted.
The doc above says a failed write "leaves it on probation, which is the safe direction - PayloadPersistence#quarantine refuses to name a recorded generation, so the cost of blaming one wrongly is a log line." That guard keys on good.json naming the generation. If markGoodfailed, good.json does not name it, so quarantine() does not refuse -- it quarantines. The stated safety net is exactly the thing that does not fire in the failure case.
Concretely: markGood returns false (transient writeAtomic failure, full disk), the latch is already set, so no later onActivityResumed retries and bootProbation.proved() is never called. unprovenGeneration stays set for the process lifetime, so any subsequent uncaught exception anywhere in the app -- including in the user's own unrelated code -- quarantines a generation that demonstrably reached the screen and reports it to CoGo as crashed. Next boot falls back further than it needed to, or clear()s outright if no earlier good.json exists.
Setting the latch only on success (or clearing it on false) makes the doc's claim true.

A foreground deploy whose activity disappears before the posted recreate is never acked.
resumed is sampled at line 276, so pendingReloadGeneration is set to this generation. If the activity is destroyed before reloadOnMain runs, top == null takes the log-only branch, no resume ever follows, and neither reportReloaded nor reportCrash fires -- the host only learns via its deploy timeout. pendingReloadGeneration also stays set, so the blame lookup at line 544 keeps pointing at this generation for any later crash.
The comment at line 293 acknowledges this race for the backgrounded branch; the foreground branch has the same hole. This else looks like the natural place to ack, since it is the same "nothing to hang a frame callback on" situation.

Nit: the 256 MB cap cannot prevent the OOM it exists to guard against.
The incremental check is right -- it fires before each chunk is written, so nothing buffers past the limit. The problem is the limit's value against the buffer's growth: ByteArrayOutputStream doubles, and toByteArray() copies. A payload approaching MAX_PAYLOAD_BYTES peaks around 3x its size (the 128 MB array still held while the 256 MB one is allocated, then a 256 MB copy on the way out).
On a phone with a few hundred MB of heap the effective ceiling is well under 100 MB, so the app OOMs on a payload the cap considers fine. Both callers read from a ParcelFileDescriptor, so getStatSize() could presize the buffer and drop the doubling; failing that, a cap the device heap can actually hold would be more honest than 256 MB.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Nit: two getCanonicalPath() resolutions on every asset lookup.
isWithinRoot is called from loadAssetFd for each asset request, and this provider sits ahead of the baked APK, so every AssetManager.open in the app pays two realpath() syscall chains (Android does not enable java.io.File canonical-path caching). For an asset-heavy app -- fonts, level data, web assets -- that is a measurable regression versus a plain APK read.
The root's canonical path is fixed for the provider's lifetime, so it could be resolved once in the constructor and only the candidate resolved per call.

setMaxLines(6) on a banner that carries up to a 2000-char crash summary, with no way to scroll.
MAX_CRASH_SUMMARY_LENGTH is 2000 and summarize emits up to MAX_CRASH_SUMMARY_FRAMES frames plus the cause, so the part of the summary naming the fault is routinely clipped and unreachable. It also runs against the repo rule that content which can grow must have somewhere to scroll and must survive 2x font scale -- at 2.0 the six lines hold roughly a third of the text.
Either shorten what reaches the banner (first frame plus cause, full text to the log) or make it scrollable/expandable.

Part 4/11 of the stacked split of #1669 (requested by Akash). Base: feature/ADFA-4128-qb-03-protocol. Stack overview + review mechanics: PR 1 (#1713). Terms are defined in quickbuild/README.md (lands in PR 1).
Lets a running app take on new code, resources and assets without being reinstalled. This is what makes a save feel instant instead of costing a full rebuild.
