Brings the proot patch set up to WinNative 53836ca9 on top of the #772 port: - trace prctl, setrlimit and prlimit64 in the seccomp filter only for the arguments proot acts on, and uname only where the core rewrites it - answer a seccomp stop's filter flags from the registers fetched for its translation, reuse those registers, and skip the sysexit stop of wait4 left to the kernel and accept without a sockaddr; the flags come from proot's list merged with the enabled extensions, and a syscall an extension replaced keeps its exit stop - take a clone3 child's flags and exit signal from struct clone_args - name a thread's /proc/self by its thread group and resolve /proc/thread-self - translate fchmodat2, send openat2 callers to openat, and bound sysnum lookups by the table length - sweep relatives only for tracees that have children or ptracees, and empty the per-stop memory collector instead of reallocating it
Run Valve's native ARM64 Steam client on an Adreno Android device. Steam runs in a Linux runtime under proot, with gamescope and an in-app Vulkan compositor. Windows games use Valve's ARM64 Proton and FEX. A desktop with LXQt, Firefox, and emulators is also available.
Requirements and install
Use Android 9 or newer on a supported Adreno device (730 or newer, or 8xx). Mali, Xclipse, PowerVR, and Adreno 710 are unsupported. No root is required. Allow about 3 GB for the runtime and 1.1 GB more for the desktop and emulators. Install the APK from Releases, install the Linux runtime, then press Play and sign in. Steam downloads on first launch. Install Desktop & apps to use the desktop and emulators.
On Android 12+, if Steam exits without a log, turn off Restrict child processes in Developer options.
Build
Run tools/build_local.sh with Docker, Java 17, the Android SDK/NDK, and zstd installed. It builds the ARM64 audio sinks from PulseAudio 13.0 and packages them into the APK at app/build/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk. Set DROIDDECK_PA13_SOURCE_DIR to an existing PulseAudio 13.0 source directory to skip downloading it. To install the APK on an attached device, run tools/deploy_local.sh.
Limits
Compatibility and performance vary by device; hardware validation is limited. Desktop compositing uses software rendering. Firefox sandboxing is reduced under proot. See the session logs in Download/DroidDeck/ when diagnosing problems.
