The objective of the androidgoldfish project is to enable the Android Goldfish emulator to run using different Linux kernels. The supported version by default from Google is 2.6.29, the source can be checked out in https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/goldfish/

The kernels that have been patched in this project are taken from the kernel.org website and patched with Android code along with the associated drivers. The kernel has been tested by compiling it for ARM machine code and now x86, which means that when it is used in the Android emulator it will emulates the ARM platform like how most mobile phones are designed with.
