Ambient capabilities are inherited in a straightforward way across
execve(2):
"
If you are nonroot but you have a capability, you can add it to pA.
If you do so, your children get that capability in pA, pP, and pE.
For example, you can set pA = CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE, and your
children can automatically bind low-numbered ports.
"
This will allow us to get rid of the special meaning for AID_NET_ADMIN
and AID_NET_RAW, and if desired, to reduce the use of file capabilities
(which grant capabilities to any process that can execute the file). An
additional benefit of the latter is that a single .rc file can specify
all properties for a service, without having to rely on a separate file
for file capabilities.
Ambient capabilities are supported starting with kernel 4.3 and have
been backported to all Android common kernels back to 3.10.
I chose to not use Minijail here (though I'm still using libcap) for
two reasons:
1-The Minijail code is designed to work in situations where the process
is holding any set of capabilities, so it's more complex. The situation
when forking from init allows for simpler code.
2-The way Minijail is structured right now, we would not be able to
make the required SELinux calls between UID/GID dropping and other priv
dropping code. In the future, it will make sense to add some sort of
"hook" to Minijail so that it can be used in situations where we want
to do other operations between some of the privilege-dropping
operations carried out by Minijail.

bootcharts currently only show root's processes, which isn't very
useful. To investigate and track boot duration issues, we need a way for
init to see all the pids. Add init to GID 3009 (aka AID_READPROC)
Ensure that init's children don't inherit this GID by always clearing
supplementary group IDs on fork.

Not-Tested: bootchart actually works. Speculative fix.

Services implementing HIDL HALs must be named the same as the HIDL
package, e.g. android.hardware.nfc@1.0. Allow init to accept names
containing '.' and '@'.
Also combined logic for legal property names and legal service names.

Bug: 32109611
Test: Tested creating service nfc@1.0-service which creates property
'init.svc.nfc@1.0-service' with and without this change. This service
successfully started only with this change.

getTag() becomes invalid when entry is dropped because mMsg
disappears to save space; but the per-tag spam filter depends on it
still being valid. Conserve space in LogBufferElement by optimizing
the size of the fields, then add a new mTag field that is set in the
object constructor. Add an isBinary() method.
SideEffects: save 12 bytes/log message overhead on 64-bit.
Test: define DEBUG_CHECK_FOR_STALE_ENTRIES and look for stale entries

Native bridge implements namespace related interfaces in version 3.
The namespace semantic here is same as Android dynamic linker's.
Native loader wraps library loading functions of dynamic linker and
native bridge. Thus, Android runtime is able to load native library
of different ISA on one device by calling native loader directly.

Commit 807e40ecc9 'liblog: logd: Add
android_lookupEventTag_len()' which addressed a Dirty Shared memory
leak resulted in a regression. Most notably logcat <tag> stopped
working for the events log buffer.
AndroidLogEntry::tag also requires callers to check out
AndroidLogEntry::tagLen as tag is no longer guaranteed to be
nul terminated.
