Technical Explanation

The current build of the Pixel Experience 10 rom contains a bug that causes com.android.media* to crash when Android Shared memory is requested. The log of this error is shown below:

10-18 20:25:00.781   599 32692 E ashmem  : Failed to dlopen() libashmemd_client.so: dlopen failed: library "libashmemd_client.so" not found

It's simply due to the libashmemd_client.so and ashmemd_aidl_interface-cpp.so libraries being missing underneathe of /system/apex/com.android.media/lib64 and /system/apex/com.android.media.swcodec/lib64. This module just copies them over on boot.
