Can you explain what that "backport source code" is? I can see the tag released e.g. in frameworks/base for 7.1.2. It looks like it's finally the source code for all the security patches listed by the Android security bulletins, but never reapplied to previous versions of the AOSP. Is that right?
Thanks, Jean-Marie.

Could you explain why the PLATFORM_SECURITY_PATCH of android-8.1.0_r70 is still 2017-12-05? That's very confusing!

The security backports are not device specific. Hence we are not updating the security string on those branches.

maybe I am missing something.
even if a tag is not device-specific, doesn't it make sense to update
the SPL?
e.g. if android-8.1.0_r70 has all the security patches applied from the
November 2019 (and earlier) security bulletin, why not update the
variable PLATFORM_SECURITY_PATCH?
Leaving it set to 2017-12-05 seems unnecessarily confusing.

Yes. Totally agree.
If I update to android-8.1.0_r70, the users would think this is a VERY OLD release which is not updated for almost two years!
Even android-8.1.0_r65 has update to 2019-06-05, why android-8.1.0_r70 became even older?
Please manage the thing right, Google!

I'm not sure if comments like that are helpful.
Maybe there is a valid reason not to touch the SPL when google has not
published a device release from a given tag, or maybe it is just a
process issue (e.g. may be the release manager is in charge of changing
the SPL).
What's the valid reason to keep it to a very old date? That's inconceivable.
