* Some system apps are more system than othersChristopher Tate2013-06-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "signatureOrSystem" permissions are no longer available to all apps residing en the /system partition. Instead, there is a new /system/priv-app directory, and only apps whose APKs are in that directory are allowed to use signatureOrSystem permissions without sharing the platform cert. This will reduce the surface area for possible exploits of system- bundled applications to try to gain access to permission-guarded operations. The ApplicationInfo.FLAG_SYSTEM flag continues to mean what it is says in the documentation: it indicates that the application apk was bundled on the /system partition. A new hidden flag FLAG_PRIVILEGED has been introduced that reflects the actual right to access these permissions. At some point the "system" permission category will be renamed to "privileged".

* Support loading keyboard layout overlays from resources.Jeff Brown2012-04-171-2/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added the concept of a keyboard layout overlay, which is a key character map file that has "type OVERLAY". Added support for loading keyboard layout overlays from resources dynamically. The layouts are reloaded whenever they are changed in the Settings application or an application is installed. This is somewhat more aggressive than necessary so we might want to optimize it later. Before system-ready, the input system uses just the generic keyboard layouts that are included on the device system image. After system-ready, it considers the user's selected keyboard layout overlay and attempts to load it as necessary. We need to wait until system-ready before doing this because we need to be in a state where it is safe to start applications or access their resources.

* Initial commit of InputManager and keyboard layout API.Jeff Brown2012-04-051-0/+16
Added a new InputManager service for interacting with input devices and configuring them. This will be the focus of an upcoming refactoring. Added an API for registering keyboard layouts with the system based on the use of a broadcast receiver. Applications can register their own keyboard layouts simply by declaring a broadcast receiver in their manifests. Added the skeleton of a package that will ultimately contain the keyboard layouts and other input device related resources that are part of the base system.
