Actually bionic is not a part of Android Linux Kernel, but a replacement of glic which is used in normal Linux. The differences between Android Kernel and mainstream kernel are: 1. binder: used for IPC 2. Ashmem: Anonymous shared memory, used for inter-process communication 3. pmem: used for shared memory as well 4. power management: introduce wake lock into PM, which is more aggressive 5. logger: made a new logger for Android debug info output 6. yaffs2: integrated yaffs2 filesystem into Kernel which is not in mainstream kernel 7.framebuffer: Android needs dual-buffer
