Implementing Health 2.1 HAL

1. Install common binderized service. The binderized service dlopen()s passthrough implementations on the device, so there is no need to write your own.

   # Install default binderized implementation to vendor.
   PRODUCT_PACKAGES += android.hardware.health@2.1-service
   

2. Delete existing VINTF manifest entry. Search for android.hardware.health in your device manifest, and delete the whole <hal> entry for older versions of the HAL. Instead, when android.hardware.health@2.1-service is installed, a VINTF manifest fragment is installed to /vendor/etc/vintf, so there is no need to manually specify it in your device manifest. See Manifest fragments for details.

3. Install the proper passthrough implemetation.

   1. If you want to use default implementation:

      # Install default passthrough implementation to vendor.
      PRODUCT_PACKAGES += android.hardware.health@2.1-impl
      
      # For non-A/B devices, install default passthrough implementation to recovery.
      PRODUCT_PACKAGES += android.hardware.health@2.1-impl.recovery
      

      You are done. Otherwise, go to the next step.

   2. If you want to write your own implementation,

      1. Copy skeleton implementation from the appendix.

      2. Modify the implementation to suit your needs.

         • If you have a board or device specific libhealthd, see Upgrading with a customized libhealthd.
         • If you are upgrading from 1.0 health HAL, see Upgrading from Health HAL 1.0.
         • If you are upgrading from a customized 2.0 health HAL implementation, See Upgrading from Health HAL 2.0.

      3. Install the implementation.

      4. Update necessary SELinux permissions.

      5. Fix /charger symlink.

Upgrading with a customized libhealthd or from Health HAL 1.0

libhealthd contains two functions: healthd_board_init() and healthd_board_battery_update(). Similarly, Health HAL 1.0 contains init() and update(), with an additional energyCounter() function.

• healthd_board_init() / @1.0::IHealth.init() should be called before passing the healthd_config struct to your HealthImpl class. See HIDL_FETCH_IHealth in HealthImpl.cpp.

• healthd_board_battery_update() / @1.0::IHealth.update() should be called in HealthImpl::UpdateHealthInfo(). Example:

  void HealthImpl::UpdateHealthInfo(HealthInfo* health_info) {
      struct BatteryProperties props;
      convertFromHealthInfo(health_info->legacy.legacy, &props);
      healthd_board_battery_update(&props);
      convertToHealthInfo(&props, health_info->legacy.legacy);
  }
  

  For efficiency, you should move code in healthd_board_battery_update to HealthImpl::UpdateHealthInfo and modify health_info directly to avoid conversion to BatteryProperties.

• Code for @1.0::IHealth.energyCounter() should be moved to HealthImpl::getEnergyCounter(). Example:

  Return<void> Health::getEnergyCounter(getEnergyCounter_cb _hidl_cb) {
      int64_t energy = /* ... */;
      _hidl_cb(Result::SUCCESS, energy);
      return Void();
  }
  

Upgrading from Health HAL 2.0

• If you have implemented healthd_board_init() and/or healthd_board_battery_update() (instead of using libhealthd.default), see the section above for instructions to convert them.

• If you have implemented get_storage_info() and/or get_disk_stats() (instead of using libhealthstoragedefault), implement HealthImpl::getDiskStats and/or HealthImpl::getStorageInfo directly. There is no need to override HealthImpl::getHealthInfo or HealthImpl::getHealthInfo_2_1 because they call getDiskStats and getStorageInfo to retrieve storage information.

Install the implementation

In device.mk:

# Install the passthrough implementation to vendor.
PRODUCT_PACKAGES += android.hardware.health@2.1-impl-<device>

# For non-A/B devices, also install the passthrough implementation to recovery.
PRODUCT_PACKAGES += android.hardware.health@2.1-impl-<device>.recovery

Update necessary SELinux permissions

For example (replace <device> with the device name):

# device/<manufacturer>/<device>/sepolicy/vendor/hal_health_default.te
# Add device specific permissions to hal_health_default domain, especially
# if a device-specific libhealthd is used and/or device-specific storage related
# APIs are implemented.

Fix /charger symlink

If you are using /charger in your init.rc scripts, it is recommended (required for devices running in Android R) that the path is changed to /system/bin/charger instead.

Search for service charger in your device configuration directory to see if this change applies to your device. Below is an example of how the script should look like:

service charger /system/bin/charger
    class charger
    user system
    group system wakelock input
    capabilities SYS_BOOT
    file /dev/kmsg w
    file /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops-0 r
    file /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops r
    file /proc/last_kmsg r
