  • Found this via google: '[The oneway keyword modifies the behavior of remote calls](https://developer.android.com/guide/components/aidl.html)'. – Phil Cooper Dec 28 '16 at 09:23

From the Google documentation (https://developer.android.com/guide/components/aidl.html)

The oneway keyword modifies the behavior of remote calls. When used, a remote call does not block; it simply sends the transaction data and immediately returns. The implementation of the interface eventually receives this as a regular call from the Binder thread pool as a normal remote call. If oneway is used with a local call, there is no impact and the call is still synchronous.
