- Port vanilla-pipe on Android for users with rooted devices and compatible Wi-Fi hardware - Drop OpenSSL as a build dependency (only used for hostap's crypto backend, but didn't work on Android so now we're using hostap's internal crypto) - Improvements to event loop (targets 180Hz input polling + 60Hz video display) - Implement MediaCodec hardware decoding on Android - Use smaller and simpler DHCP client
vanilla-pipe
No, this is not something you smoke, vanilla-pipe is a program on various platforms that facilitates a connection between the Wii U and another device. Since the Wii U connection is slightly nonstandard, not all devices can connect to it on their own. Hence, vanilla-pipe, which allows a connection on one device that forwards all communication to another.
vanilla-pipe is also used locally to allow the connection to happen with root permissions (which the nonstandard connection requires) while the frontend can remain a user program (with regular access to the user's X/Wayland/PulseAudio sessions).
