Dynamic partitions are a userspace partitioning system for Android. Using
this partitioning system, you can create, resize, or destroy partitions during
over-the-air (OTA) updates. With dynamic partitions, vendors no longer
have to worry about the individual sizes of partitions such as
system, vendor, and product.
Instead, the device allocates a super partition, and
sub-partitions can be sized dynamically within it. Individual partition
images no longer have to leave empty space for future OTAs. Instead, the
remaining free space in super is available for all dynamic
partitions.
