* init support for cgroups.Elliott Hughes2015-06-171-28/+32
| | | | | | | | | | This adds the "writepid" option that instructs init to write the child's pid to the given filenames (such as /dev/cpuctl/bg_non_interactive/cgroup.procs and/or /dev/cpuset/foreground/cgroup.procs). Bug: http://b/21163745 Change-Id: I121bb22aa208bc99c4fb334eb552fdd5bcc47c1a (cherry picked from commit d62f0608d9d67bf647cf15debbd163e84584fe44)

* Revert "Revert "Remove now-unusable 'setcon' command.""Elliott Hughes2015-04-241-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit b862bd00a4192d48c3ae82156d8c35b32283e9e4. This change was fine but an earlier change it depended on was broken. That change has been fixed and resubmitted. Bug: http://b/19702273 Change-Id: I17e565721026e48e2a73526f729f2481d4d6edb5

* Clarify a few things about bootcharts.Elliott Hughes2015-03-281-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | Make it clearer in dmesg when we're deliberately not doing bootcharting, and explain in the documentation that the output for init is quite misleading (and, as far as I can tell, not within our power to fix). Change-Id: I0b22a56f83521d64c6d176dc423c81f7ea86b23c

* Remove chroot from init.Elliott Hughes2015-03-181-3/+0
| | | | | | This is not obviously useful. Let's wait until we have an actual need. Change-Id: I2c75c96314b281e89df25b6ed202b3dd5dfdaf15

| | | | | | also make a distinction between flag and option. Change-Id: Ia872bc8dc98b3459f9c1e992d096c115699357af
* Remove obsolete setkey.Elliott Hughes2015-03-131-3/+0
| | | | | | It's undocumented and unused. Change-Id: I685dc900adbc14f2e8b4eeebb1e4d111782f141d
* Remove getsebool/setsebool from init and toolbox.Stephen Smalley2015-03-131-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | These were leftovers from the SELinux boolean support that was originally merged. Since Android prohibits SELinux policy booleans, we can just drop it. Change-Id: I02f646a7d8db65e153702205b082b87a73f60d73 Signed-off-by: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov>
* builtins: remove setenforce commandNick Kralevich2015-03-111-4/+0
| | | | | | | | Adding "setenforce 0" to init.rc isn't a supported way to turn off SELinux, and doesn't work with AOSP SELinux policy. Remove the code from init. Change-Id: If8c8149560789c9a7ba518a0a100e6033bb68898

* init: grab-bootchart.sh: run bootchart and display resultsMark Salyzyn2015-02-241-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | - KISS as all options are now passed to adb for better or worse - runs bootchart and immediately displays the results Bug: 19485335 Bug: 18390773 Change-Id: Id32930031371d0368e605810f0c998232a1d4f16

* Clean up reading and writing in init.Elliott Hughes2015-02-061-6/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This isn't particularly useful in and of itself, but it does introduce the first (trivial) unit test, improves the documentation (including details about how to debug init crashes), and made me aware of how unpleasant the existing parser is. I also fixed a bug in passing --- unless you thought the "peboot" and "pm" commands were features... Bug: 19217569 Change-Id: I6ab76129a543ce3ed3dab52ef2c638009874c3de
* Trivial cleanup of recent changes.Elliott Hughes2015-02-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | A typo in the documentation for one, and a couple of signed/unsigned warnings in the implementation of the other. Change-Id: I8fb4b7448ac901c543dea7420aabcedf13ec1bd8
* init: Implement 'exec' command.San Mehat2015-02-021-3/+7

* init: Add support "&&" operator in property triggersBadhri Jagan Sridharan2015-02-021-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "&&" operator can now be used to test the validity of two of more properties. For example: on property:test.a=1 && property:test.b=1 setprop test.c 1 The above stub sets the test.c to 1 only when both test.a=1 and test.b=1 (cherry-pick of 162f7d797c67019a7a3f08c3b0f0ffc91d548ddc.)

* Remove obsolete warning from restorecon_recursive documentation.Stephen Smalley2014-09-021-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We originally included a warning to not invoke restorecon_recursive with a path leading to a shell-writable or app-writable directory due to concerns about the potential for mischief with symlinks during the restorecon_recursive. However, this warning was never necessary for calling restorecon_recursive during system initialization before an adb shell or app can run, and we have further prohibited init from reading/following symlinks that can be created by shell or apps in policy, so this warning is superfluous. It also contradicts current usage of restorecon_recursive in rootdir/init.rc, since it is called there on /data.

* init: add 'enable <service>' to negate "service <service>... disabled"JP Abgrall2014-05-031-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | enable <servicename> Turns a disabled service into an enabled one as if the service did not specify disabled in the rc file. It will also start the service if needed. Bug: 14472973 Change-Id: Id0b49cc687a2bc74f6f92e066c617724cc94908d Signed-off-by: JP Abgrall <jpa@google.com>
* Add a restorecon_recursive built-in command to init.Stephen Smalley2013-10-101-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | Functionally equivalent to the restorecon -R toolbox command. A use case is given by: I48eaa2b9901ac8c978192c14493ba1058a089423 Also, fix error handling and documentation for restorecon command.

* Add support for socket security context specification.Stephen Smalley2013-08-231-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add an optional argument to the socket option for specifying a SELinux security context for the socket. Normally the socket security context is automatically computed from the service security context or set using the seclabel option, but this facility allows dealing with two scenarios that cannot be addressed using the existing mechanisms: 1) Use of logwrapper to wrap a service. In this case, init cannot determine the service security context as it does not directly execute it and we do not want logwrapper to run in the same domain as the service. 2) Situations where a service has multiple sockets and we want to label them distinctly.

* Change setsebool syntax to be consistent with other init built-ins.Stephen Smalley2012-12-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Change setsebool syntax from name=value to name value. This is to make it consistent with setprop and similar commands. Update both the init built-in command and the toolbox command for consistency. Change-Id: I2c8e016ba26731c4a2ad4a49ae3b89362bf8f8a8 Signed-off-by: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov>

* Extend and document the "wait" commandPatrick McCormick2012-07-241-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The wait command was currently implemented but undocumented and only used internally. This change adds a second option toi (optionally) override the default timeout of 5 seconds. The wait command can be used to wait for a file to appear during the boot process, for example a disk or other device, and is a better alternative than an unconditional sleep.
