[guardian-dev] PRoot : User-space implementation of chroot, mount --bind, and binfmt_misc

[Kumar Sukhani]

PRoot[1] is a user-space implementation of chroot, mount --bind, and
binfmt_misc. This means that users don't need any privileges or setup to do
things like using an arbitrary directory as the new root filesystem, making
files accessible somewhere else in the filesystem hierarchy, or executing
programs built for another CPU architecture transparently through QEMU
user-mode.
But to use PRoot on Android you have to apply this patch. I have not worked
on it myself. But its working properly for this[3] project.
