[EXPERIMENTAL] [UNOFFICIAL] Xposed for arm64 devices | 5.1 and 5.0 versions available

I got a new m9 in the box, thinking about waiting to activate it since xposed wouldn't work on it yet.
I could also compile Xposed arm64 for android 5.0 if there is enough interest.
Somebody would need to be willing to test, but I could try to compile Xposed for it.
Well, if you're willing to test and support it, you can post unofficial files for testing...
I have a Nexus 9 with Android 5.0 myself and it's running fairly well. I haven't used any complex modules though.
Be aware that 64-bit ROMs need different handling in a couple of places and break some expectations. For example, initZygote() will be executed twice, as there are two app_processXX processes now. Modules might not expect this. I also didn't succeed to enforce a certain startup order of the processes (app_process64 before app_process32) yet, so results might be a bit random. There are probably more differences like this and it's generally more complex than on 32-bit ROMs. That's why I have only posted files for ARM so far. On the other hand, if you're willing to look into issues that come up (e.g. installation problems, crashes, things that are not working) and do some pre-analysis, that's fine and could bring the project forward. If nothing to major comes up, I can then also include official files with the next version. Additional support would be very welcome anyway.

Framework installation zip attached to OP.
I made a version for android 5.0 but I would need somebody to test it before I release it.
Rastapop 5.1 on n9 with selinux on. I can install xposed fine but rebooting after enabling YouTube adaway and gravitybox causes a never ending boot logo
From my understanding, gravitybox is not compatible with Android 5.1 at all.
Thanks for taking this on, joshuabg. I couldn't believe it when I saw this thread. I thought that 5.1 jumped the arm64 shark and we'd never see xposed for N9.
Anyway, I flashed on AICP 4/6 with FireIce K8.3, SELinux disabled and it booted just fine. Tried the following modules, and I see what rovo meant in his post above. It's really hit or miss with the modules just like the [SUPER ALPHA] xposed for 32 bit arm devices. Thanks again for rolling this out to test.

- YouTube Adaway - seemed to work, jumped to dozens of random videos and no ads
- Minmin Guard - app opened and seemed to operate normally but I think it may have blocked ads across the board without my telling it to do so. I think it also caused an XDA Free force close on opening that wouldn't go away
- Swype Tweaks - caused Swype to FC anytime the keyboard should have launched
Yup my bad. Gravitybox says right in the description it'll cause a boot loop on 5.1. Everything is working perfectly. Thanks!

I am aware of that and have already compiled arm64 versions of it. I will be releasing them after further private testing.
